Frequently asked questions

Your home finding questions, answered.

If you have a question that's not covered here, we're always happy to help.

How does the home finding service work?

We begin with a detailed brief to understand your preferred locations, budget, property requirements and lifestyle needs. We then source and shortlist suitable rental properties, inspect selected properties on your behalf where required, provide video walkthroughs and local insight, and support you through the application, negotiation and approval process.

How many property inspections are included?

Up to six property inspections are included. Our sourcing process is highly targeted, so we focus on properties that closely match your brief before arranging inspections.

Can you help if I'm not in the country yet?

Yes. Our home finding service is designed for people relocating from overseas or interstate. Where local requirements allow, we can inspect suitable properties on your behalf and provide video walkthroughs, notes and information about the surrounding neighbourhood so you can make an informed decision remotely.

Do you only help with long-term rentals?

Our home finding service is primarily designed for long-term residential rentals. If you need temporary accommodation or another housing solution as part of your relocation, talk to our team about the support available in your destination.

Do you have access to off-market properties?

We have established relationships with property managers and local industry contacts, which can sometimes give us access to suitable properties before they are widely advertised. Off-market availability varies by location and cannot be guaranteed.

Do you assist with rental applications?

Yes. Core clients receive application guidance, including advice on required documents and ways to strengthen their renter profile. Signature clients receive full application management, with New Latitude managing the renter profile, application process, property manager correspondence and follow-up on their behalf.

Can you help with utility connections?

Yes. Once your rental has been approved, we can assist with connecting essential utilities where needed as part of your move-in support.

What areas do you cover?

New Latitude provides home finding and relocation support across Australia, New Zealand and destinations worldwide. Your relocation is managed directly by New Latitude, with our international network providing additional on-the-ground expertise where required. Services can vary by destination, so we confirm local requirements and available support during your initial consultation.
