Your Kirribilli leasing specialists

With 1,400+ properties under management across Sydney and a deep footprint right through the lower north shore, we know this market, from the Kirribilli village to the streets around Fitzroy Street, Broughton Street and the harbour foreshore. We know the buildings, the streets and the tenants, and we use that to lease your property faster and for more.

Kirribilli sits right under the Harbour Bridge with some of the best views in Sydney, and it is one of the North Shore's most sought-after apartment pockets. The small village around Fitzroy and Broughton Street holds the cafes, Milsons Point station and Luna Park are a short walk west, and the harbourside walk runs past Kirribilli House to Careening Cove. Most of the housing is period apartment stock, Art Deco and Spanish Mission blocks that tenants seek out by name, a few minutes from the CBD by ferry or rail. That mix of character buildings and steady demand rewards a manager who knows which blocks lease fastest and what they should earn.

Who rents in Kirribilli

Kirribilli draws professionals, downsizers and couples who want some of the best harbour views in Sydney, the ferry and a quick trip to the city, in period and newer apartment blocks. It is a character apartment market where tenants seek out the buildings and the outlook and tend to stay.

How Kirribilli has changed

The last two to three years have reshaped renting in Kirribilli, 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 Kirribilli 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 Kirribilli landlords

What kind of tenants rent in Kirribilli?
Kirribilli draws professionals and couples who want a harbourside apartment with the city a ferry ride away. Most of the stock is period Art Deco and Spanish Mission blocks that tenants seek out by name. We match the building to the tenant most likely to value it and stay.
How quickly will my Kirribilli property lease?
Well-presented apartments in Kirribilli tend to lease quickly, because demand for the period blocks and the views is steady. Across our Sydney portfolio we average around 8.4 days to lease. The address helps, but sharp pricing and a proper campaign help more, and that is what we bring.
Do you manage the older Art Deco apartments in Kirribilli?
Yes, and they are some of our favourites to lease. The Art Deco and Spanish Mission blocks around Fitzroy and Carabella Street attract tenants who specifically want character and a view, so pricing and presenting them to that audience is how you get a fast lease and a tenant who stays.
What are Kirribilli 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 Kirribilli, 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 Kirribilli 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 Kirribilli 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 Kirribilli property should be earning.
