Who We Are
What Everyone Is Saying!
Kirsten Hamilton2025-02-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Really happy with the experience we had with Urban Renters. We moved from NZ to Sydney over the Christmas and New Year period. Gina was incredibly helpful and informative, and took away a lot of the stress that comes with moving countries. We found a great apartment in our ideal area and the move in process was seamless. Would definitely recommend the team! Jill Marcus2025-02-05Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We cannot speak highly enough about Terry and Urban Renters. We moved to Sydney from the US, and we had almost a year of lead time in which we tried to develop relationships and communication with various owners' agents via all the usual websites (domain, realestate.au, etc...). In some US major markets like New York, it is not uncommon to have agents representing renters in addition to agents who represent owners. Until we came across an interview with Terry in a Sydney online magazine, we were not award that renters agents also exist in Sydney. Suffice it to say that the extensive effort that we put into managing the process ourselves up until that point turned out to be a waste of time. The bottom line is that owners' agents in Sydney are committed to the owner and the transaction - period. The demand in Sydney is clearly high, and therefore, unfortunately even a well qualified renter seeking a property simply cannot expect attention or even a courteous response. The listings we had encountered often included dated images, inflated list prices, and exaggerated and embellished descriptions. Terry has seen it all. She knows the pitfalls and traps, and she guided our process not only from beginning to end, but also even after our move-in when we continued to need assistance dealing with the owner's agent/management on some ongoing issues. I cannot imagine going through the process without Terry. She is an invaluable resource and a kind and caring person. We love the home that we found with Terry, but if we ever decide to make a change, we will be back in touch. Jo Jo2025-01-27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Terry and Gina were amazing in helping us find a beautiful home in Sydney for ourselves and our two dogs. Their help made a big difference in such a competitive property market. Since we were moving interstate, we relied completely on them to find and inspect properties for us. They did a great job giving us detailed and clear descriptions of the homes and the areas. We would happily choose URA again—they made the whole process so much easier for us. Dane B2025-01-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I used Urban Renter's Agents and couldnt be happier with the service, great communication and process. Gina was fanstastic to work with and we found our dream rental apartment Mitch Dawson2024-11-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I moved from Newcastle to Sydney recently and used urban renters agent to help find me a place to rent. Took all the stress of having to drive 2 hours each way to look at properties. Their inspections were comprehensive with descriptions and their thoughts on each property as well as walkthrough videos of each. Nothing was a hassle, professional and friendly throughout the process Monique R2024-11-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Urban Renter’s Agent provided invaluable help in finding us a rental property ahead of our relocation from the UK to Australia. It was an end-to-end service which started with scoping the market and identifying suitable options, reviewing our application details to ensure these were optimised, viewing properties and sending us detailed videos and descriptions, liaising with local agents, reviewing our lease before we signed and even co-ordinating with a furniture rental company to get initial furniture and contents in place ready for our arrival. The team were always very responsive and a big shout out especially to Justin, our main agent, who was extremely knowledgeable, helpful and a pleasure to work with. We genuinely don’t think we would have managed to secure such a well-suited property without them. Highly recommended! Daniella Tonetto2024-09-26Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Terry & Gina were professionals from the very beginning. Their service takes the headache and stress out of moving. They take the time to carefully consider all your requirements and find the perfect rental for you. I would highly recommend their services it’s well worth the fees charged. Daniel2024-09-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were relocating back home to Australia from the UK and needed rental accommodation upon arrival back in Sydney. Terry and the team at Urban Renter’s were brilliant in helping navigate the market and finding a property that was well suited to us, in the location we were looking for. I couldn’t recommend them highly enough! Molly Warkentin2024-09-19Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had the absolute pleasure of working with Urban Renters agent, and I can’t recommend them highly enough! From start to finish, they made the entire process seamless, stress-free, and even enjoyable. Justin was always incredibly responsive, attentive to my needs, and went above and beyond to ensure I found the perfect home. He took the time to understand what I was looking for, kept me updated every step of the way, and was always available to answer any questions I had (even the little ones!). They know the market inside and out, and their knowledge and expertise really shined through. I felt completely confident in their hands, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. If you’re looking for a professional, reliable, and genuinely caring agent to help you find your next home, look no further than Urban Renters agent. Thank you again for making what could have been a stressful process so easy and enjoyable! Jonathan T2024-09-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Terry and the crew at Urban Renters are amazing! Moved from overseas and was really struggling to even get a response from the other rentals, after 3 days Terry found me an apartment. Amazing service and communication highly recommend 🙂Load more

Faqs
We represent the tenant, a.k.a the renter, in the search, inspection and application process of a rental property. We are acting in the best interests of the renter, not the landlord, and are there to negotiate the terms of the Residential Tenancy Agreement on their behalf. A renters agent represents a renter in the same way a buyers agent represents a buyer.
It can take anywhere between one week to six weeks. There is no fixed period in which to find you the most suitable rental home. We endeavour to have something secured for you within the first 14 days, but in some instances, the search process in more competitive regions may take longer.
The first step is to fill out our renter requirements form here. Remember to give us as much detail as possible. Once we receive this we will be in touch to go through your requirements in further detail and explain the next steps.
Depending on your criteria we will continue to search until we find you a new home. In the current market, it is taking us approximately 3-4 weeks from when we commence the search to secure a suitable property, however, we do not have a strict deadline for our service.
We’re nearing three decades of knowledge and hands-on experience in property management. We have represented landlords for most of these years but have trained, coached and consulted to the industry more recently.
We know agents, and we know landlords. How they think, what their requirements are and how we can work together with them to source you a suitable property. We will represent you throughout this entire renting process, from searching and application submission to lease signing and further into the first 30 days of your tenancy.
Yes and no. You would have heard of buyer’s agents that have been around for a while now representing buyers. Renter’s agents are exactly the same, but for renters.
Yes, we can. We can help you book a removalist, a cleaner, gardener, book a pool clean and service, rent a van, rent a trailer etc. Just ask us. If we can make your move that little bit smoother for you, we absolutely will.
The Sydney and Brisbane rental market is very fast-paced so we recommend getting in touch with a renters agent 4-6 weeks before you are planning to move.
We do not find share houses, individual rooms or any short-term accommodation for clients.
We help people find new rental homes in Sydney and Brisbane. This includes the Inner city, Lower and Upper North Shore, Northern Beaches, Eastern suburbs, and Inner West.
Renting is Competitive.
