What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Tenants repeatedly describe the experience of renting through this Sydney agency as smooth and stress-free, with the care shown by staff emerging as the dominant theme. Robert Wicking is named most often, praised for responding quickly to maintenance requests, handling inspections respectfully and communicating clearly with both tenants and mutual clients. Darya receives similar credit for being available, friendly and thorough across inspections, repairs and questions, while Anastasiya and Justine are singled out for compassion and support during difficult circumstances.

Several reviewers highlight how easy the application process felt and how promptly questions were answered, both before and after a tenancy began. A point that comes up often is the sense that tenants are treated as people rather than as a source of income, with inspections conducted professionally and with regard for someone's home. The agency's affordable lease options and its capacity to help people manage challenging situations are also noted. Long-standing renters of two and four years describe consistent reliability and a willingness to act on concerns. Many recommend the team warmly to others seeking a dependable leasing experience in the private rental market.

Leasing through Homeground Sydney was honestly such a positive experience and I’m so grateful for the support and help from the girls every step of the way. They were so patient, easy to communicate with, and incredibly accommodating and understanding of my situation without ever making me feel judged. After struggling to find a rental, they genuinely felt like my saving grace. The team were upfront, honest and caring from the very beginning, which made such a stressful process feel so much easier. I’m truly so grateful I found them. Thank you so much again!

As a tenant we had a very positive experience with HomeGround Sydney. Darya and Justine were always kind, understanding, and genuinely supportive . With how difficult the Sydney rental market is at the moment, and even with the limited resources available, they still did everything they could to help and support the applicants. You can really see that they care about people and are passionate about what they do. Their encouragement to keep trying and not give up genuinely meant a lot and made a difficult process feel much easier. Thank you again Darya and Justine for all your help and kindness. Wishing you both all the best.
