📈 Can You Sell Your Investment Property While It’s Rented? Yes — and Here’s How to Do It Right

If you're a landlord considering selling, one of the first questions that usually comes up is: "Can I sell my property while it’s tenanted?" The short answer is yes — and at @ Real Estate, we do this regularly, successfully, and with care.

 

🤝 Respecting Tenants, Delivering Results

Selling a tenanted property comes with a few extra steps, but when it’s handled well, it can be a win for everyone — you, the tenant, and the new buyer. Here’s how we do it:

  • We communicate clearly and respectfully with tenants from day one
  • We work within their rights and ensure peaceful enjoyment of the property
  • We provide buyers with all the lease information upfront
  • We tailor the sales process to suit the property, tenant, and market
  • We find the right buyer for the situation — whether they’re an investor or an owner-occupier prepared to wait for the lease to end

 

Most tenants actually prefer our process. Instead of multiple private inspections, we hold one high-impact open home each week — which means less disruption and better outcomes.

🛡️ Compliance & Communication Are Key

When selling a tenanted home, it’s crucial that:

  • Everyone is treated with professionalism and respect
  • All communication is clear, transparent, and in line with legislation

 

That’s where experience matters. At @ Real Estate, we know the law, we know the local market, and we know how to make the process smooth.
