ABODE PROPERTY MANAGEMENT

More Than Property Managers.

We're Property Owners Too.

Our team owns approximately 20% of the properties we manage. We provide professional property management across Darwin, Palmerston, the rural area and Katherine, giving local and interstate investors confidence that their properties are in good hands.

We do more than collect rent. We take a proactive approach to protecting your property, managing tenants and helping you get the most from your investment. Your property is supported by our entire team, not just one property manager, giving you access to collective experience, knowledge and support.


Abode Property Management

Six Things You Can Count On

1

Organised Processes

A highly organised property management team backed by proven processes, detailed checklists and modern technology. Every task is tracked, every detail followed up and nothing left to chance.

2

24/7 Landlord Access

Our 24/7 Landlord Portal gives you access to updates on rent, maintenance and property inspections from anywhere in the world. Stay informed about your Darwin investment property without having to chase your property manager.


3

Proactive Inspections and Property Protection

We conduct an initial inspection six weeks into every new tenancy, followed by routine inspections approximately every 13 weeks. This proactive approach helps us identify maintenance issues early and keep landlords informed about their property's condition.

4

Proactive Rent Arrears Management

We take a proactive approach to rent arrears, following up missed payments promptly and consistently. Choose to receive your rental income fortnightly or monthly, with clear reporting to keep you informed.

5

Property Expenses Taken Care Of

From council rates and water bills to insurance and pest inspections, we can coordinate and pay property related expenses on your behalf. Less administration for you, more time to focus on your investment.

6

Carefully Screened Quality Tenants

Every rental applicant is carefully screened and assessed before approval. We ask ourselves one simple question: Would we want this person living in our own home?

A Different Approach to Property Management

One Team.

Specialist Responsibilities.

Better Oversight.

Traditional property management often places everything in the hands of one property manager with a set amount of properties. At Abode, we do things differently.

Our pod-style property management system gives each team member responsibility for a dedicated area of your investment's management. Maintenance, routine inspections, invoices and lease renewals each have dedicated people overseeing them.

With Daniel providing leadership as General Manager and stepping in wherever additional support is needed, every member of our team plays an important role. Like the moving parts of a Swiss watch, each specialist has a responsibility, and every part works together in sync to keep your investment running smoothly.


It's a more organised, accountable approach to property management across Darwin, Palmerston, the rural area and Katherine. Your investment benefits from the knowledge and attention of an entire team, rather than relying on one person to do everything.

Director and Founder, Abode Property Management, Karinda Gill

MEET OUR FOUNDER AND DIRECTOR

Karinda Gill

Karinda Gill's journey is built on determination, education and a strong belief in financial independence. Born into a financially challenged family, she set herself the goal of creating a better future through hard work, learning and property investment.


In 1996, Karinda moved to the Northern Territory with just a car, a van and $1,000. Through years of hard work and careful investment, she went on to build a substantial portfolio of residential properties and business shareholdings, with an estimated combined value of $50 million.


After obtaining her Principal Real Estate Licence in 2012, Karinda established Abode Property Management. The business grew from her own frustrations as a property investor. As her portfolio expanded, she struggled to find a local agency that offered the level of dedicated, proactive asset management she wanted for her own investments.


Rather than settle for less, she built the property management business she wished had existed: one focused on protecting investment properties, supporting landlords and treating tenants with respect. That philosophy remains at the heart of Abode today: Contented Landlords. Appreciated Tenants.


Karinda was named the 2017 Telstra Northern Territory Business Woman of the Year, and her company received the Housing Industry Association Australian Small Builder of the Year award.


As Founder and Director, Karinda remains closely involved in the business. She shares her knowledge and experience with the team, building a consistent, collaborative approach to property management so every owner benefits from the standards and expertise that inspired Abode in the first place.
