Stop Fires Before They Start.
Protect Your Rent Roll & Your Team
Your strategic partner for independent clarity on Victoria’s Minimum Rental Standards — without adding to your PMs’ workload.
Your team is carrying the heaviest load in Victoria.
New rules, higher tenant expectations, tighter owners, trades pushing their own agendas — and every dispute or delay ends up on your desk.
Routine inspections weren’t designed for today’s regulatory pressure.
Owners want certainty. Tenants expect action. Directors want stability.
Safehaus gives PMs independent, photo-supported clarity they can forward straight to owners — reducing workload, pushback and last-minute emergencies.
Independent findings → Owners listen sooner.
Simple next steps → Fewer disputes.
Neutral third party → Less blame on your PMs.
Safehaus removes that burden completely.
Why Property Managers Need Safehaus Right Now.
What Safehaus Gives Agencies.
✓ Independent authority owners will listen to.
Owners push back less when guidance comes from a neutral party — not “the PM’s opinion”.
✓ Fewer emergencies & fewer crises.
Early visibility of issues prevents last-minute trades, failed lease renewals and unnecessary escalations.
✓ Owner-ready reports your team can forward instantly.
Short, simple reports with photos and clear “Do Now / Monitor / No Action” priorities.
✓ VCAT-friendly documentation.
Clear visual evidence helps resolve disputes quickly and reduces your team’s exposure.
✓ No trades. No upsells. No pressure.
We don’t test, certify or sell anything. Safehaus gives clarity — not conflict.
✓ Fits perfectly alongside your existing compliance providers.
Smoke alarms, gas, electrical — they stay. We fill the gap no one else covers: visual clarity + owner communication.
How Safehaus Works

Structured, visual inspection of key Minimum Rental Standards items. No tools, no testing, no disruption.
3. PM forwards the report to the owner
Reports are written so your team doesn’t need to rewrite or interpret anything.
4. Owners make better decisions, faster
Neutral clarity = fewer arguments, quicker approvals, smoother renewals.

FAQs
The key things you want to know before getting started.
-
No. Safehaus is designed to support Property Managers — not replace them.
Agencies retain full control over management, inspections and statutory compliance. Safehaus provides an independent reference that helps PMs explain property conditions and priorities clearly to owners, without added workload or interpretation risk.
-
No.
Safehaus does not test, certify, measure or quote for works.
Our role is to document observable property conditions and present them in a clear, structured format that supports informed decision-making by owners and PMs.
-
Yes — the reports are written specifically for PMs to forward with zero rewriting.
-
Usually within 24–72 hours, so lease renewals and new tenancies aren’t delayed.
-
No.
Safehaus is designed to reduce PM workload.
Our reports are structured so they can be forwarded directly to owners without rewriting or interpretation. This cuts down on back-and-forth, repeated explanations, and owner pushback — particularly around Minimum Standards timing and scope.
-
Safehaus operates as a low-liability service by design.
We record visible conditions only, at the time of assessment. We do not certify compliance, instruct specific works, or provide technical testing. This allows agencies to use Safehaus as an independent reference without transferring compliance or trade liability.
-
Most agencies start small.
Safehaus is usually used on 5 or more properties, often across different PMs, to see how it fits within existing workflows. Agencies then scale usage naturally once the value becomes clear — with no obligation to use it on every property.
-
Yes.
Safehaus carries appropriate Professional Indemnity and Public Liability insurance for the scope of services provided.
Our insurance aligns with our role as an independent documentation and reporting service and supports agencies using Safehaus as a reference point alongside existing compliance providers.
