Our Commitment

We don’t over promise and under deliver!

Our Commitment

If you are after a rental appraisal, rest assured we will offer you honest and reliable feedback. With over 20 years in the Dunedin rental market, we know it is important to get the basic’s right. Overpricing properties to buy a listing can be a costly mistake due to vacancies, while under renting will cost you in the long run.

Our Property Managers don’t charge to arrange maintenance. Our fees are fair and upfront, your weekly management fee includes us arranging the maintenance. We do add additional fees to arrange this, as this is what we see is what you are paying for us to do in the first place.

On the subject of Management Fees, our fees don’t have small print, or promises of renting your home in x days or we pay your rent, WHY? Because we are here to get you the RIGHT TENANT, not just any tenant and for you to know we are here to work for you. Our process to select the right tenant for your home, and we make sure that we do the hard work to find the best fit for your property,

Why We Do What We Do at Propertyscouts Dunedin

Our Why

Our why is simple: we want our owners to have successful investment stories and peace of mind. Likewise, we want our tenants to have a house where they can build memories and create security.

Some people ask, "Why on earth would you do property management?" Well, we love it! Every day is different, while our style of property management is not TV worthy, it gets the job done, with a whole lot less stress on everyone.

Every day is different and fulfilling. One day, we are playing matchmakers, finding the perfect fit for both tenants and owners, the next day, we're problem-solving maintenance issues or renovating properties to maximise return on investment, and supplying quality rental stock to the Dunedin Market.

Our goal is to provide our owners and tenants with security and respect. By fostering successful investments and stable homes, we create a positive experience for everyone involved.

We are here to achieve the best results for your property, which means it is our job to treat your tenants with respect and good communication. Although we consider ourselves to be expert Property Managers, a lot of our role is to be people managers. We are here to create positive investment stories, and that starts with happy and respected tenants. Our role is to make unemotional decisions and give legal advice to ensure a harmonious outcome is achieved resulting in fantastic results.

  • I left Dunedin six years ago and opted to rent out my house, leaving it in the capable hands of Propertyscouts Dunedin. I had no complaints at all for the first few years, and the experience has been even more top-drawer since Donna Burns joined the team a few years ago. I've been expertly guided by the team in helping me with Healthy Homes requirements, as well as negotiating with the great tenants (which they found six years ago) when I had some kitchen renovations to do a couple of years ago. I'm about to sell my property, but in terms of stress-free property management that managed the needs of both the tenants and myself in a fair and equitable manner, I'd argue it's hard to go past Propertyscouts Dunedin.

    - Matt (Property owner)
  • I've had the most amazing experience with Propertyscouts! They always go above and beyond and we look forward to working with you for years to come!

    - Casey (Tenant)
  • I have nothing but gratitude for Propertyscouts. I have been with them for two years and have just signed again. They helped to find a property that suited us and fixed it all up from the previous tenants in a matter of days to make it liveable for us. As we have been doing the Gardens and finding half a rubbish bag dcc size of things that had been through the fireplace from previous tenants. Thank you again guys.

    - David (Property owner)
  • Honestly I couldn't of asked for a better experience. Donna has gone above and beyond and has been so supportive in helping me and my wife throughout our stay in Dunedin. Thank you property scouts and team for really making this part of my time in new Zealand a breeze.

    - Liam (Tenant)
  • We have used Propertyscouts over 5 years with several properties. We have found them friendly to deal with and very efficient. There are a lot of traps for Landlords, and while most tenants are great there are some that are very difficult. Propertyscouts have always been very professional with how they have dealt with all situations and given us great piece of mind.

    - Dave (Property owner)
  • Have had Propertyscouts Dunedin as my property agent for 4-5 years now. Very happy with the service received, the property has always been tenanted, tenants have always paid the rent on time and looked after the property.

    - Claudine (Property owner)
  • Property Scouts advised us recently by phone that we had a roof leak in our rental property, and they managed to bring plumbers in and fix the problem on the same day - a huge relief for us. We have total faith in Property Scouts Dunedin, these are the only people we would use to care for any Dunedin rental. Thanks DJ and the team!

    - Robyn (Property owner)
  • Efficient in communication and repairs and in general
