“I can’t say enough about how professional and effective Winneth is. I accepted a job offer in Melbourne, starting in February 2018. As we planned our move, my wife and discovered that finding an apartment in Melbourne is challenging. We are pretty picky about our living conditions; we were concerned that with my job, we wouldn’t have the time or energy to find the best place or neighbourhood. As I began searching for alternatives on the Internet, I came across FindersKeepers and reached out to Winneth.
Winneth struck an effective balance between listening to our criteria and offering advice
In our first conversation, I could tell I was talking to a pro. Winneth asked all the right questions about what we were looking for in an apartment and a neighbourhood. We had a great discussion; I felt like Winneth struck an effective balance between listening to our criteria and offering advice. He quickly got to work developing a profile for us and within a couple days, we had a list of prospective apartments. In each case, Winneth helped us make informed choices by providing necessary details about the apartment, building and neighbourhood. Winneth has solid insider knowledge of the market, too; a couple times, he steered us away from what seemed like a good prospect, because he knew about issues with building construction or management.
Finders Keepers Rental Property Locators found a fantastic apartment in a couple of weeks
We were probably not Winneth’s easiest clients! Within a couple weeks, though he had found a fantastic apartment in Carlton that hit all our criteria. He didn’t stop there; Winneth negotiated with the management company, conducted the inspection, and guided us through each step of the paperwork. Winneth even took care of getting all our utilities up and running before we moved in.
I am very glad that we worked with Winneth and FindersKeepers
Apartment hunting in Melbourne is not easy; I am very glad that we worked with Winneth and FindersKeepers. We are living in a great apartment and a vibrant neighbourhood without having stressed ourselves getting here.”

Background
Chris and Val were relocating from Singapore and they love being in the midst of the vibrancy of what city life has to offer. Having lived in big cities around the world, they wanted to be close to what Melbourne has to offer. Their requirements, good sized apartment and nearby work. We found the right one in four inspections. It was a bonus that the apartment was partially furnished with a fridge and washing machine which meant they didn’t have to buy these. Location is great with great views of greenery.
