How We Work - For Renters
At GA Property Hunters, we provide a fully bespoke, end-to-end rental search service, carefully managing every stage of your journey to find the perfect home.
Renting a property should be seamless and enjoyable, and we’re here to make sure it is. Whether you’d like to be hands-on or prefer us to manage everything for you, we tailor our approach entirely to your needs. Every client is unique, and our structured process is designed to fit your schedule, lifestyle, and location preferences.
01
No Obligation Consultation
We start with a detailed conversation to understand your rental requirements, lifestyle, and priorities. We’ll explain how our personalised rental service works and how we adapt to each client’s unique needs.
You’ll receive expert insight into the rental market, current availability, pricing trends, and neighbourhood comparisons. If needed, we can suggest alternative areas that align with your lifestyle and commute preferences.
02
Crafting Your Detailed Brief
After the consultation, we create a detailed brief outlining your must-haves and deal-breakers. This allows us to focus exclusively on properties that are a true fit for your needs—whether you're relocating, upsizing, downsizing, or searching for your first home.
Our experience ensures we help you prioritise what matters most—such as proximity to schools or work, amenities, green space, or public transport links.
03
Property Search & Market Access
With your brief in hand, we carry out a full market search, including:
â—† On-market rentals – From reputable agents and online platforms
â—† Off-market & pre-market options – Accessed through our trusted network
â—† Premium listings – Properties with standout design, location, or amenities
Our connections often allow us to show you properties before they become publicly available, giving you a valuable advantage in competitive rental markets.
04
Property Previews & Vetting
We personally preview each property before recommending it, saving you time and ensuring every option meets your expectations. We look beyond the surface, checking the property’s condition, landlord credentials, and contract terms.
You’ll receive:
â—† Honest property condition feedback – Including anything we feel could be a concern
â—† Area comparisons – To make sure you're getting good value
â—† Insight into the landlord/agent – So there are no surprises later
05
Shortlist & Viewings
We present you with a refined shortlist of properties that match your brief, complete with our professional recommendations. We then coordinate viewings around your schedule.
â—† Accompanied Viewings – With expert commentary and guidance at every stop
â—† Virtual Viewings – Ideal for international clients or busy schedules
â—† Pre-market Opportunities – Giving you first access when possible
06
Offer & Negotiation
Once you've found the right place, we handle the negotiation and offer process on your behalf. Our experience ensures you secure the best terms and avoid common pitfalls in the rental process.
We’ll negotiate:
â—† Monthly rent & lease terms
â—† Break clauses or extensions
â—† Furniture requests or minor works if needed
07
Contracts & Move-In Coordination
After your offer is accepted, we manage the rental contract review, liaising with the agent or landlord to ensure everything is handled efficiently. We assist with:
â—† Reviewing tenancy agreements
â—† Deposit protection and compliance
