How it works
From signup to rent in your account.
Tenwise carries one connected flow end to end: list and share, screen applicants, sign the lease, run the tenancy. Here’s the whole thing — the steps, the tools, and an honest account of the hours it asks of you.
Every step feeds the next.
Each step carries its data forward, so an approved applicant becomes the lease tenant becomes the rent payer without re-keying anything.
Step 1 of 4
List and share
Paste a realestate.com.au or Domain link and the property prefills, or start fresh and let AI draft the ad. Publish a clean listing page and share it wherever you reach tenants.
- AI ad draft in seconds
- Prefill from realestate.com.au, Domain or Facebook
- Share by link — text, email, local groups
Step 2 of 4
Screen applicants
Applications land in one inbox with the same tenancy-database checks an agent runs. A fit score ranks them on what they can comfortably afford and their rental history — you always decide.
- TICA and other tenancy-database checks
- At-a-glance fit score, factor by factor
- Applicants are never charged — the law in NSW
Step 3 of 4
Sign the lease
A state-specific residential tenancy agreement and a digital condition report, built from your tenancy details. Everyone signs online; the bond goes straight to the state authority — never Tenwise.
- State-specific agreement and condition report
- Everyone signs online, with an audit trail
- Bond lodged with the state authority
Step 4 of 4
Run the tenancy
After move-in: rent on the schedule you set, in-app messages, structured maintenance, inspections, and Radar surfacing what needs you. Rent moves bank-to-bank — Tenwise never touches it.
- Rent weekly, fortnightly or monthly
- Messages, maintenance and inspections in one place
- Radar watches rent, compliance and dates
What’s in the app
Everything you’d pay an agent to do — built into the app.
Self-managing doesn’t mean going it alone with a spreadsheet. These are the tools that do the heavy lifting, so the part left to you is the deciding.
Listings, drafted for you
Paste a realestate.com.au, Domain or Facebook link to prefill, or start fresh and let AI write the ad. Publish a clean, shareable listing page in minutes.
Enquiries in one inbox
Enquiries from your listing land in a single inbox. Reply, shortlist, and invite your favourites to apply — no spreadsheet, no missed leads.
Applicant ranking & compare
A tenancy-fit score ranks applicants on what they can comfortably afford and their rental history — never age, family or any protected attribute — with a factor-by-factor breakdown. Compare your shortlist side by side; you always decide.
Document generation
State-specific lease agreements built from your tenancy details, plus a home for every property document — share what the tenant needs and keep the rest private.
Financial management
Track rent, expenses and returns per property and across your portfolio, with Australian tax-time summaries — negative gearing, deductions and depreciation in one place.
Maintenance, organised
Tenants log repairs with photos; you route jobs to your own tradespeople and keep every request and receipt in one thread.
Inspections & RSVPs
Schedule routine inspections, collect RSVPs and produce the report — without the back-and-forth over dates.
A free tenant portal
Your tenant gets their own dashboard for lease documents, messages, maintenance and inspections — or they can just use email. Tenants never pay Tenwise a cent.
Portfolio dashboard and quick search
Every property, enquiry and application at a glance. Jump anywhere with the ⌘K command palette, and export anything as CSV whenever you want it.
The honest hours.
Self-managing isn’t free of effort — it’s free of the fee. Tenwise does the paperwork; you make the decisions. Plan on a few hours per new tenancy and minutes a month after that. We’ve itemised it, step by step, rather than pretend it’s nothing.
