Your Alexandria leasing specialists

With 1,400+ properties under management across Sydney and a deep footprint right through the CBD and inner city, we know this market, from McEvoy Street and Botany Road to the streets around the Grounds of Alexandria and Sydney Park. We know the buildings, the streets and the tenants, and we use that to lease your property faster and for more.

Alexandria has traded its industrial past for one of the inner city's most distinctive rental markets. The old warehouses off McEvoy and Bourke Street have become apartments, creative offices and cafes, the Grounds of Alexandria draws crowds on a weekend, and Sydney Park sits on its southern edge. A few minutes from the CBD, Green Square and Newtown, it draws young professionals and creatives who want space and character close to the city. The mix of warehouse conversions, apartments and terraces rewards a manager who knows what each type should earn and the tenant it will suit.

Who rents in Alexandria

Alexandria rents to young professionals, creatives and couples who want warehouse and new-apartment living close to the city, with the cafes and the Grounds nearby and Green Square a few minutes away. It is a converted-industrial and new-build market with strong demand from people who value character and location.

How Alexandria has changed

The last two to three years have reshaped renting in Alexandria, along with the rest of Sydney. Through 2023 and into 2024 rents climbed quickly as overseas students and workers returned and vacancy fell to unusually low levels, so well-presented properties leased fast and often to the first strong applicant. Into 2025 and 2026 the pressure has eased. More stock has come back to the market, tenants have a little more choice, and the queues at every inspection have thinned. For a Alexandria landlord the takeaway is simple. Demand is still healthy, but the market has gone back to rewarding a sharp, well-priced campaign over an optimistic number and a wait. Pricing to the live comparable and presenting the property properly matter again, which is exactly where we focus.

Common questions from Alexandria landlords

What kind of tenants rent in Alexandria?
Alexandria draws young professionals and creatives who want space and character close to the city, in everything from warehouse conversions to apartments and terraces. Being minutes from the CBD, Green Square and Newtown keeps demand strong. We match each property to the tenant most likely to value it and stay.
How quickly will my Alexandria property lease?
Well-presented, well-priced homes in Alexandria tend to move quickly, because demand for the inner-city location and its character stock is strong. Across our Sydney portfolio we average around 8.4 days to lease. The reality is that pricing to the live market and presenting the property properly matters more than the postcode, which is where we focus.
Do you manage warehouse conversions as well as terraces in Alexandria?
Yes, and the conversions are some of our favourites to lease. Alexandria runs from converted warehouses to apartments and Victorian terraces, and each attracts a different tenant. Knowing which suits which applicant, and what each should earn, is how we lease yours faster and for more.
What are Alexandria tenants actually looking for?
Beyond the basics, most weigh up natural light, a clean and modern bathroom and kitchen, some storage, and a sense of security and quiet once the front door closes. Any outdoor space, even a small balcony or courtyard, is a real advantage. In Alexandria, position and the walk to what people come here for do a lot of the work too. Get these right and you widen the pool of applicants, which is what protects your rent.
Should I renovate or update before I lease my Alexandria property?
Usually the small things pay and the big ones do not. Fresh paint, good lighting, a tidy bathroom and kitchen and a proper clean lift the rent and the speed of the lease far more than their cost. A full renovation rarely pays for itself in rent alone. Before you spend a dollar, we will tell you what will actually move the number and what will not.
What are the most common mistakes Alexandria landlords make?
Three come up again and again. Pricing to the number they want rather than the number the market is paying, so the property sits. Skimping on photography and presentation when tenants have choice. And getting the furnished-or-unfurnished call wrong for the property. Self-managing and missing the live market is the fourth. Each one costs weeks of vacancy, which almost always dwarfs what it saved.
What does switching to Lifestyle involve?
Less than most landlords expect. We handle the whole handover from your current agent, so there are no awkward conversations for you. If there is a tenant in place, the lease, rent and bond carry over unchanged, and our side is usually done in a day or two. With no lock-in, the timing is set by your notice period, with no gap in rent.

Thinking of switching?

No lock-in, and we handle the whole handover for you. Your current notice period sets the timing; our side is done in a day or two, with no gap in rent. Find out what your Alexandria property should be earning.
