About this listen

Mould in rental properties presents significant challenges for property managers, requiring collaborative solutions between landlords and tenants to effectively manage and prevent infestations. We explore eco-friendly treatment options with Dean O'Neil from National Mould Services, who shares insights on natural products that are safe for people with asthma, allergies, and pets while effectively eliminating mould.

• Complete Property Management Day in Sydney attracted 84 industry professionals from newcomers to 20-year veterans
• Many sales-focused principals are experiencing "lightning moments" when realising property management is their most valuable business asset
• Mould can appear in any property, regardless of age, even brand-new apartments
• Prevention requires tenant actions (ventilation, using exhaust fans) and landlord provisions (insulation, ceiling fans)
• Natural mould control products offer safer alternatives to harsh chemicals and bleaches
• Preventive treatment costs approximately $195 for a standard property
• Some agencies now incorporate mould prevention into tenancy agreements or welcome packs
• Products can also be used for air conditioning systems, vehicles, and commercial properties
