Better Returns. Fewer Problems. Less Stress.

Whether you own your first rental in Cambridge or you’re frustrated with self-managing, property management quickly becomes overwhelming. Compliance rules change, tenant issues escalate, and small mistakes can cost thousands.

At Waikato Real Estate, we help Cambridge landlords step away from the day-to-day stress while improving returns and protecting their investment. Our systems, experience, and local market knowledge allow you to enjoy the benefits of property ownership — without the constant problems.

• Local Waikato Expertise
  We manage over 1,200 rental properties across Cambridge, Hamilton, and surrounding communities, giving us broad insight into tenant demand, pricing, and compliance expectations.

• Compliance-First Management
  From Healthy Homes to tenancy law, we ensure your Cambridge rental meets all requirements - reducing risk and avoiding costly disputes.

• Proven Systems, Not Guesswork
  Our processes are built to protect landlords, minimise vacancy, and ensure clear communication at every stage.

• Landlord-Focused, Not Sales-Driven
  Property management is not a side service for us - it’s our core focus.

Cambridge attracts a unique mix of tenants — including families, professionals, and long-term renters seeking stability outside larger city centres. Demand remains strong across suburbs such as Leamington, Cambridge East and West, Hautapu, and Karapiro.

However, Cambridge rentals often come with specific challenges:

• Older housing stock requiring careful compliance management

• Strong tenant expectations around quality and maintenance

• Pricing differences compared to Hamilton that require local knowledge

Our experience managing Cambridge properties allows us to price accurately, attract reliable tenants, and protect your asset long-term.

Our Cambridge property management services are offered at a clear, all-inclusive fee of 8.25% +GST. 

It includes everything from inspections to maintenance coordination - no markup or hidden extras. The only additional cost is a letting fee (1 week’s rent + GST) when we find a new tenant.

Ready to get started? We make it easy.

Are you worried about compliance? Healthy Homes fines can cost landlords up to $7,200! And that’s not the only compliance landlords need to worry about. Missed compliance can lead to penalties and lost income.

We take this off your shoulders completely. Our team manages Healthy Homes and all tenancy compliance from start to finish at no extra cost, giving you total peace of mind.

If you are not getting the service you deserve from your current property manager, we can help you make the move with no stress and no disruption to your tenants.

We manage the entire process for you, including communicating with your current property manager, so you do not have to. 

Some property managers require up to 12 months’ notice to cancel. With us, it is just 30 days. No barriers. No hassle. Get started with a free rent appraisal. 

We are proud of the service we deliver. Our clients’ five-star reviews and referrals reflect the quality of our team. We also understand that switching property managers is a significant decision. You are trusting us with an important investment, and we believe that trust should be earned.

That is why we offer this promise to every new client. If you are not satisfied with the service you receive in your first three months, we will refund your management fees. No questions asked.

You will not be tied to a long-term contract. Our agreement is month-to-month because we believe great service should be the reason you stay.
