Leased our rental property in one week with only one open for inspection. We have found Taneya to be a very professional and a thorough property manager. Her communication and attention to detail has been one of a extremely high standard. We would definitely recommend Taneya's services and highly endorse the McGrath Ballarat team.

Outstanding property management

I can't say enough great things about our property manager, Taneya! From day one, she’s gone above and beyond to make leasing our investment property truly stress-free and enjoyable experience. She’s responsive, professional, and genuinely care about both the property and the people living in it. Every request has been handled quickly and efficiently, and always follows up to make sure everything is done right. Communication is always clear, courteous, and timely—something that’s surprisingly rare in property management! It's incredibly reassuring to know that someone so capable is looking out for the property and its residents. If you're lucky enough to have Taneya managing your home or investment, rest easy—you’re in excellent hands.
