Private rental advertising means you don’t need a real estate agent to rent out your property. Instead, you handle the process yourself — from listing the property to responding to enquiries and selecting a tenant. This can save you hundreds, sometimes thousands, of dollars in letting fees.
But the benefits don’t stop at cost savings. When you choose to advertise privately with Rentway, you’re also gaining complete control. You decide how your listing looks, what price you advertise at, how you handle applications, and who you rent to. There’s no middleman, no miscommunication, and no pressure to accept tenants you’re not comfortable with.
Rentway: Helping You Take Control
At Rentway, we believe that landlords should be able to rent out their properties with the same reach and effectiveness as any agent. That’s why we’ve built a platform that puts you in the driver’s seat while giving you the professional tools you need to succeed. When you advertise through Rentway, you can:
- List your property on the top rental websites in Australia, including realestate.com.au, domain.com.au and rent.com.au
- Control your listing from your own secure dashboard
- Edit your ad at any time without paying extra
- Receive tenant enquiries and applications directly
- Screen applicants using our background check services
We take care of the technical side of things so you can focus on what really matters — finding the right tenant for your property.
Just as Effective in Small Towns as in Big Cities
One of the common myths about private rental advertising is that it only works in major cities. But the reality is very different. We’ve helped landlords all across Australia successfully rent out properties in small towns, remote areas, coastal regions, and rural communities.
Because we distribute your ad to the most popular rental websites in the country, your listing will be seen by prospective tenants no matter where they’re searching from. Whether you’re in Brisbane or Ballarat, Sydney or Swan Hill, Adelaide or Albany, Rentway makes sure your property gets the attention it deserves.
Flexible Listings That You Control
With Rentway, you’re never stuck with a static listing. You can edit your ad at any time, update the price, change the availability date, upload new photos, or adjust the description. It’s your property, and you get to decide how it’s advertised.
These changes update across all connected rental websites automatically, so you don’t have to worry about logging in to multiple platforms or losing visibility. It’s fast, easy, and puts you firmly in control.
Tenant Enquiries Come Directly to You
When you advertise with Rentway, all tenant applications and messages are sent directly to you. That means you don’t have to wait for a third party to pass on information or chase down details. You’ll be the first to know when someone is interested, and you can reply instantly.
This direct communication helps you build trust with potential tenants from the start. You can answer questions quickly, schedule inspections at times that suit you, and get a feel for who’s serious about renting your property. It also gives you the chance to ask your own questions and begin screening applicants early in the process.
Tools to Help You Compete with Agents
You might wonder whether private landlords can compete with professional agents. With Rentway, the answer is yes. We give you the same advertising reach, a full suite of tools, and support resources to help you every step of the way. Here’s what’s included:
