2026 / 27 tax reform

Every dollar counts now. Keep all of it — why pay an agent 7–10% to forward emails?

Negative gearing is tightening and the 50% CGT discount faces indexation — so every deduction suddenly matters. Yet a typical AU agent still skims 7–10% of your gross rent off the top: $4,000+ a year on a $650/week home, gone before tax, before deductions, before a cent reaches you. LORDLY replaces the agent with software — and indexes every capital improvement the day you log it.

  • 7–10% Skimmed off your rent Off the gross — every week, every year, before the ATO sees a single number.
  • $44k+ Gone over a decade On one $650/wk rental at 8% + letting + admin. LORDLY runs about $3,600 across the same ten years.
  • Indexed CGT cost-base Every improvement CPI-indexed against ABS data — ready the day the 50% discount goes.

Illustrative numbers only — reform legislation is still under consideration.

Tenant rent-affordability describes structural cost reduction, not a guaranteed lower rent. LORDLY does not provide tax or financial advice.

The ecosystem

Property management.
Minus the manager.

LORDLY AGENT runs the full property-management workload, around the clock. It answers tenants instantly, screens applicants, drafts state-aware paperwork, chases rent, gathers tradie quotes and keeps your ledger, compliance and tax pack current. The work of a leasing agent and a property manager, done better and faster, without the 7 to 10% bite. You only decide what genuinely needs your judgement. Most days, you do nothing.

Built for the owner

Loved by landlords.
Hated by agents.

An app that does the property manager's job, for the price of a coffee a week. Only Verified Tenants reach your inbox. Tradies are vetted, rated and paid through escrow. State-aware leases, notices, rent and the tax pack run in the background, wherever your property sits. You keep the 7–10% you used to lose to an agent.

LORDLY AGENT
Your autonomous property manager.

An agent that matches the plumber via marketplace, holds the payment in escrow until the job is signed off, drafts the state-correct notice, and updates your ledger — actions a chat window cannot perform. Simple issues are resolved at triage; complex jobs come back to you with quotes, a recommendation and a one-tap approve. Anything sensitive — legal, breach, or above your auto-approve limit — pauses for your review.

  • Solves small issues directlyReset switches, blocked drains, washer changes. LORDLY walks the tenant through the fix in seconds — most maintenance never reaches the landlord.
  • Escalates the things that need your eyesLegal notices, breach situations, anything above your auto-approve limit — flagged for your review before any action. You're never auto-committed to a decision LORDLY shouldn't make.
  • Triages emergencies in secondsP1 issues (no water, no power, gas, security) trigger rapid quote matching with marketplace tradies. Quotes typically arrive within minutes, day or night — you approve in one tap.
  • Drafts the brief, surfaces the quotesLORDLY AGENT can draft a clean job brief from the tenant's description and photos. You review and post; tradies quote in the marketplace and we surface them with ratings so you can pick confidently.
  • You always approve before we bookEvery job — from a $90 washer to a $4,000 hot-water swap — comes with the full quote stack and a one-tap approve. Nothing is booked, paid or dispatched without your nod.
  • Verified Tenants OnlyLORDLY Shield verifies ID, income, rental history and references before any applicant reaches your inbox. You see a Trust Score, not a vibe.
  • Predicts before it breaksHot water before winter. Gutters before storms. Smoke alarms on time. Routine, not reactive.
  • LORDLY Intelligence — just askType in plain English — “what urgent issue do I have?”, “pay my plumber”, “take me to the sink-job booking” — and LORDLY opens the exact record or screen, with one-tap answers for overdue rent, open maintenance, tax and payouts. No menus, no hunting.
LORDLY INTELLIGENCE
How LORDLY actually plays it out

LORDLY AGENT

Three real flows. One agent.

The same LORDLY AGENT triages and escalates with quotes, talks the tenant through a $12 self-fix, or matches the tradie, holds the money in escrow and books the visit — without you lifting a finger.

Example A · Triage & quotes

When LORDLY diagnoses, then escalates with quotes

LORDLY AGENT triages the issue, proposes a self-fix, and the moment it doesn't hold, gathers vetted quotes — landlord approves in one tap.

Tenant message · to landlord Jordan John (Owner)
Live

Hi John, there's water dripping from under the kitchen sink. Started this morning.

Jordan · 14 Banks St · 9:14am
LORDLY AGENT · 1.2s

Got it, I'll help. Quick check while I diagnose: is the water active right now, or only when the tap is running? Could you send a photo under the sink?

Only when the tap runs. Sending a photo now.

LORDLY AGENT · diagnosing

From the photo it's the flexi-hose connector — common, low-risk. Try this first: turn the tap off at the wall (the small valve under the sink), wait 30 seconds, then re-open about three-quarters of a turn. If the drip stops, you're sorted.

If it doesn't, I'll escalate this to John straight away. He'll review three vetted plumber quotes and approve the right one — nothing is booked without him.

Still dripping after 5 minutes.

LORDLY AGENT · escalating to John

Self-fix didn't hold. Posted to the marketplace and gathered 3 verified plumber quotes within 8 minutes — sending to John for approval now:

Sam R. · 4.9★ · 1.2km away
$165incl GST
Recommended
Mira P. · 4.8★ · 2.8km
$210
Tony L. · 4.7★ · 0.9km
$240

Tradie quote $240. LORDLY's 5% ($12) is added on top — escrow holds $252 until you release. Awaiting your approval — nothing is booked until you tap.

Auto-approve repairs under $300 OFF · default

Auto-approve is opt-in per landlord and can be toggled by job category, dollar limit, or specific tradies you trust.

Example B · Self-fix

When LORDLY resolves it before the landlord ever sees it

LORDLY AGENT walks the tenant through diagnosis, links the part at Bunnings, and follows up to confirm the fix held. The landlord gets a one-line summary, not a call-out.

Tenant message · in-app Jordan LORDLY (triage)

Kitchen tap won't stop dripping at night. Already tried tightening the handle — slowed for an hour then started again.

Jordan · 14 Banks St · 11:42pm
LORDLY AGENT · diagnosing

Classic worn washer or O-ring. Low risk, no plumber needed yet. Two paths — try this first, it's a 15-minute fix:

  1. Place a bucket under the tap overnight to catch drips and kill the noise.
  2. Turn the cold-water valve under the sink clockwise until tight.
  3. Unscrew the tap handle, swap the worn washer or cartridge, reassemble.

Heaps of YouTube walkthroughs — search "Mixer tap washer replacement Australia". If you'd rather not DIY, just say the word and I'll loop in John.

LORDLY AGENT · part lookup

I checked your nearest Bunnings (Hoppers Crossing, 2.3km). Here's the exact part:

B Kinetic Tap Washer & O-Ring Kit · 14 pcs In stock · Aisle 12 · Plumbing $12.40incl GST

Comes with the right washer for 95% of Aussie mixers. You'll need an adjustable spanner — most kits include one.

OK I'll try it tomorrow morning before work.

LORDLY AGENT · 9:12am next day

Morning — how'd the swap go? Tap holding dry?

Yep! Took 10 mins. Bone dry now.

LORDLY AGENT · case closed · 0:00s

Beautiful. Logged as a resolved P3, no plumber needed. John gets a one-line summary in his weekly digest — nothing for him to action.

Saved approx. $185 call-out + plumber time. No invoice. No after-hours surcharge. No friction for your landlord.

Example C · Escrow & schedule

When LORDLY matches, funds and books the tradie for you

Real job, real money. LORDLY holds the funds, fans out approvals to the tradie + tenant + landlord, and stamps every state into the chat so nobody is left guessing.

Why landlords trust it · the judgement call

LORDLY doesn't just forward every drip to you.

It knows the difference between a wear-and-tear annoyance and a real problem. Minor issues get a guided self-fix first. Anything that can cause damage — or cost real money — comes straight to you.

Tenant message · in-app Priya LORDLY (triage)
Live

The bathroom tap's been dripping for a couple of days. Can you get the landlord to send a plumber out please?

Priya · 8 Marlo Ct · 7:48pm
LORDLY AGENT · 1.1s

Happy to help, Priya. A slow drip from the spout is almost always a worn washer — it's normal wear and tear, low risk, and not something the owner needs a call-out for. The good news: it's a genuinely easy fix you can do yourself in about 15 minutes.

Want me to walk you through it? If it turns out to be more than a washer, I'll escalate it for you straight away.

Honestly I'd rather the landlord just sorted it. Isn't that what they're there for?

LORDLY AGENT · holding

Totally fair to ask. For a dripping tap, though, this is minor maintenance — the kind of thing tenants are usually asked to attempt first, and it isn't an owner emergency. It's not me brushing you off: a plumber call-out for a 15-minute washer swap costs ~$180 and you'd likely be waiting days for a booking.

Here's the part — grab it next time you're near a Bunnings:

B Kinetic Tap Washer & O-Ring Kit · 14 pcs In stock · ~$15–25 · Aisle 12 · Plumbing $15+
  1. Turn the tap off at the small valve under the sink.
  2. Unscrew the handle, lift out the spindle, swap the worn washer.
  3. Reassemble, turn the water back on — drip gone.

I'll text you a 3-minute video. And if you open it up and something looks corroded or it keeps leaking, tell me — that changes the picture and I'll loop in the owner with quotes immediately.

Ok that's fair enough, I'll give it a go this weekend.

LORDLY AGENT · logged as P3

Nice one. Logged as wear-and-tear, self-fix in progress — no action needed from the owner. I'll check back Monday to make sure it held.

The owner sees one line in their weekly digest: "Dripping tap · guided self-fix · no cost." That's it.

Voices from the private beta

Quiet competence.
Spoken plainly.

A handful of Australian landlords, tenants and tradies put LORDLY through real jobs in our private beta. Here's what they said.

FAQ

Short answers to fair questions.

Is LORDLY legally compliant in my state?

Yes. LORDLY supports tenancy law for NSW, VIC, QLD, WA, SA, TAS, ACT and NT. Templates auto-update when legislation changes.

How does LORDLY Shield (Verified Tenants Only) work?

Every applicant must be Shield Verified before they can apply for one of your properties. Verification means: government ID checked through Stripe Identity, income confirmed, rental ledger imported with consent, and references collected directly from named past landlords — usually completed in under five minutes. No databases of past tenants, no privacy risk to you. Just facts, signed by the tenant.

Can I move from my current agent?

Yes. LORDLY walks you through every step — what to email your agent, how to lodge the bond transfer with your state authority, and how to onboard the tenant directly. The bond transfer typically takes about 10 minutes via your state's portal; the broader handover (notifying tenant, updating the lease) is usually done within a week or two.

What is LORDLY AGENT and is my data safe?

Vision is LORDLY's in-house co-pilot. It runs on your data, in your account, with bank-grade encryption. We never train on your tenants' or properties' information.

What about emergencies?

P1 emergencies (no water, no power, security) escalate immediately and notify your nominated tradie list, day or night.

It's your property.
Lord it.
