How it Works
RentWallet makes paying property expenses simple, fast, and stress-free.
No loans. No credit score impact. No impact on your borrowing capacity. Just fast access to funds for approved property costs, with a portion of upcoming rent directed through your property manager until the agreed amount is received.
Step 1: Apply Online
Tell us what you need covered — whether it’s strata fees, upgrades, maintenance, urgent repairs, or other essential property costs.
The application takes just minutes, and there’s no impact on your credit score.
Step 2: Quick Advance
Once approved, RentWallet advances funds based on a portion of your upcoming rent payments.
The approved amount is paid directly to your property manager’s trust account (or the service provider completing the work, such as a tradesperson or strata company) within a few days.
You’ll receive a clear summary showing:
The amount advanced,
The portion of rent directed to RentWallet, and
The service fee agreed upfront.
Step 3: Automatic Rent Direction
Your property manager simply directs a small portion of ongoing rent to RentWallet until the Assigned Rent Amount is reached.
No lump-sum payments, no extra admin, and nothing to track.
Typical duration: 6 – 12 months, depending on rent inflows.
Fixed service fee: clear, transparent pricing — no interest, no compounding.
