contact Tanya Tanner on

0413 001 343“I recently went to J.P. Dixon to enquire about leasing out my apartment whilst I

live overseas. Being new to the process, I was unsure how it all worked. I was very impressed by the fact that Tanya took the time to sit down with me and explain exactly how the process worked and answer all my questions in a friendly and polite manner. Not only that, she arranged to view my apartment and deliver all the paperwork the

same day I walked into her office, making it not only a speedy process but a stress and hassle free one.

Tanya and Nic were both friendly and efficient managing to rent out my apartment the same day it was listed. They are also able to arrange for all my household bills to be

paid whilst the apartment is being rented, making it super easy for me. I would highly recommend Tanya and J.P. Dixon to everyone, tenant, landlord or selling.
