Property & Ownership Overview

Located in the heart of Sydney’s prestigious CBD, this elegant 3-bedroom apartment is just steps from Circular Quay, world-class dining, designer shopping, and iconic attractions like the Sydney Opera House and The Rocks.

The owner, planning to sell, saw an opportunity to generate income while waiting for the right buyer. As a newcomer to the short-term rental market, they sought professional guidance to navigate the process with minimal stress and maximum return.

Key Issues Faced

  • Selling Timeline Uncertainty : The property was pending sale, with no fixed timeline, creating the need for a flexible, low-commitment income solution.
  • Lack of Rental Experience : The owner was new to the short-term rental market and unfamiliar with guest expectations, compliance, and daily operations.
  • Real Estate Agent Recommendation : Acting on professional advice, the owner opted to list the apartment for short stays, but required a full-service partner to manage it effectively.

Outcome We Delivered

  • Peace of Mind for a First-Time Host : The owner felt supported and well-informed throughout the process, appreciating the level of detail and ongoing communication.
  • Better Than Expected Returns : Despite a limited booking calendar due to sale-related restrictions, the property generated impressive income.
  • Improved Market Readiness : Regular upkeep and consistent presentation ensured the apartment remained in top condition for both guests and prospective buyers.
  • Confidence in Hosting : The owner gained confidence in short-term letting and was pleased with KozyGuru’s responsive, detail-oriented service.
