Trusted by investors
“We have used Harper Properties for close to 20 years…They have always given us superb service, keeping well-informed, excellent reporting and tenant selection. When repairs or maintenance is needed they provide us with cost-effective options but still allow us to make the final decisions. When we have done full renovations they have enabled this to be done in a way that minimises our loss of rent.
All-in-all the best move we ever made was shifting from self-managing to Harpers. Ashleigh has been our main manager and point of contact for the last few years and has been excellent.”

Loved by tenants
“Having rented properties in multiple countries over the last 10 years, without fail I’ve found most property management companies slow, painful and annoying.
Emma at Harper was absolutely brilliant – she got stuff done quickly, to a high standard and with great communication along the way, driving excellent outcomes for both tenant and landlord.”
