Good Tenants Apply for Multiple Homes — We Respond Fast Enough to Win Them
We start reviewing applications within 1.2 hours and usually finalise them within 4.5.
That speed matters — here’s why.
WHY APPLICATION SPEED IS A
DEALBREAKER
Tenants apply to several homes
Not just yours.
Decisive applicants move fast
And expect pro handling.
1–2 day delays lose A‑grade tenants
To other approvals.
Slow = vacancy + weaker tenants
(real $$ cost).
“IT WAS AVAILABLE, BUT WE DIDN'T HEAR BACK...
SO WE APPLIED SOMEWHERE ELSE.”
You only hear about it after it’s too late. Tenants don’t wait around anymore.
If they don’t hear back within 24 hours, they move on — and most never circle back.
Especially the good ones.
That’s why we built our Application Process to move fast.
WHAT AURA DOES DIFFERENTLY
Same-day review:
We begin reviewing applications within 1.2 hours on average.
Senior team only:
Your leasing manager is experienced, decisive, and responsive
Clear communication:
Tenants are contacted fast, and follow-up is proactive.
No batching:
Applications aren’t left for Friday. They’re processed daily.
Pre-screened tenants:
We match with ready-to-go renters in our database.
Fastest turnaround to date: 1.2 hours from application to full owner summary.
→ That property leased the next morning.
Why This Matters for Landlords
Speed = less vacancy, less stress, and stronger tenants.
By responding quickly:
- You shorten downtime between tenants
- Avoid pressure to drop the rent
- Secure the best applicants while they’re still deciding
- Start the tenancy on the right foot
- Stay in control of your investment timeline
HOW DO YOU KNOW IF APPLICATION
DELAYS ARE HURTING YOU?
Simple:
- If your property’s getting enquiry or inspections and is still sitting vacant — something’s wrong behind the scenes.
- We’ll take a look.
- No pressure. Just straight feedback and a better leasing plan.
APPLICATION
SPEED MATTERS
We treat application speed as seriously as price or presentation.
If you’re stuck or unsure what’s happening with your current agency, let’s talk — even if it’s just for a second opinion.

THINKING OF SWITCHING?
If you’re already listed but things aren’t moving — it’s not too late.
- 1. We can take over with 30 days' notice (often sooner)
- 2. We offer a 2-week relisting guarantee — if no tenant, we cover the next month’s management
- 3. Plus a 6-month satisfaction guarantee — or we refund your management fees
- 4. Selling soon? We’ll waive your management fees for the final months to help smooth the handover.
Helpful. Hassle-free. Human. That’s how we do things at Aura.
FREQUENTLY ASKED
QUESTIONS
How fast should my rental application be processed?
Within 24 hours at most. Aura’s average is 4.5 hours or less, so you never lose a tenant due to slow responses.
Can I switch property managers if my property is already listed?
Yes — you can switch agencies with 30 days’ notice or sooner. We’ll handle the transition and get your leasing campaign back on track fast.
Is it normal for a property to sit vacant for more than 2 weeks?
Not if it’s priced right and professionally managed. If you’ve had inspections and no tenant, the issue could be timing, follow-up, or lack of urgency.
What makes Aura different from other Sunshine Coast property managers?
We don’t outsource. We don’t delay. Every property is handled by a senior, local team member with a focus on proactive communication, fast action, and respect for your time.
Where does Aura manage properties?
We lease and manage investment properties across Caloundra West, Baringa, Little Mountain, and the wider Sunshine Coast. We also help owners in Brisbane’s northern corridor.
