Raise the rent to what the market actually pays — lawfully, and without the guesswork.
Live suburb medians set a defensible figure, a state-law gate checks the timing, and the increase notice lodges to your tenant in a single tap.
LORDLY benchmarks each tenancy against live suburb medians, suggests a defensible new rent — with an optional AGENT second opinion — and runs a state legality gate over the notice period and effective date before you serve. Lodge the state-correct notice in one tap, track the tenant’s acknowledgement, then apply the new rent on its effective date once they accept. The full comparable-market engine and auto-drafted increase notices are a Pro capability.
A number you can defend
LORDLY reads the live suburb median for your bedroom count — blended from government bond-lodgement and rental-report data across the states and refreshed weekly. You see exactly where the current rent sits inside the 25th-to-75th percentile band, a suggested new figure with its confidence, and the plain-English reasons behind it. When you want a cross-check, the AGENT second opinion returns a figure bounded by Australian sanity caps — two numbers to weigh before you commit to one.
The timing, checked before you serve
Every increase runs through a state legality gate that knows the rules — twelve months between rises, the written-notice period for your state, the first-year ban and any cap. It shows the earliest lawful effective date and the exact clause behind any block or warning, so a notice never goes out early or short. The engine drafts and the figure and timing are yours to approve — you serve.
From due to done, tracked end to end
Your portfolio groups every tenancy into due-or-upcoming, awaiting tenant, ready to apply and recent history — so nothing slips. Lodge the notice in one tap and LORDLY delivers the state-correct document to the tenant and tracks their acknowledgement. When they accept, apply the new rent on its effective date and the lease, the ledger and the next review date all move together.
