Behind every training day is hours of reading legislation so you don't have to. This is where the plain-English translations happen.

Skipping training doesn’t save you money — it just delays the bill. Here’s what it actually costs an agency.

This is one that surprises a lot of Property Managers when I raise it in training and it shouldn't.

If a safety hazard has been disclosed and you have not actioned it or documented your follow-up, the exposure is not just your landlord's. It's yours too. Knowing this is the first step. Having the right processes is the second. We're covering this and more at our upcoming events in Bendigo, Geelong, Morwell, Kew and Mornington.

📢 Rental legislation is changing again. Are you ready for October?

The rental landscape continues to evolve, with further legislative changes coming into effect from October 2026.

The good news? We're already preparing.
✔️ The legislation has been released
✔️ We’ve reviewed and interpreted the changes
✔️ Leah Calanan Consulting has completed specialist training
✔️ We’re ready to deliver training to Property Managers and support implementation

As these new requirements approach, we know many agencies and Property Managers are looking for practical guidance on what the changes mean and how to prepare.

Our focus is simple: Help Property Managers understand the legislation, implement compliant processes, and confidently navigate the new requirements.

Because when legislation changes, education and preparation make all the difference. Training sessions rolling out across Victoria, secure your seat to get up to date:

An inspiring afternoon. Meaningful connections. A great cause. ❤️

We recently brought our community together for a wonderful luncheon at the iconic Hotel Esplanade in St Kilda, with Scott, Founder & CEO of LifeChanger Foundation, as our special guest.

Scott shared the inspiring story behind LifeChanger and the incredible impact that connection, resilience, leadership and positive role models can have on young people.

We were proud to help raise funds for LifeChanger and grateful to everyone who joined us and helped make the afternoon so special. 🙏

If your PMs feel overwhelmed by legislation, that's not a PM problem. It's a leadership one.

Overwhelmed PMs are usually under-supported, not under-skilled. What changes it is a built-in training cadence, not one-off sessions.

Implementation has to live in your systems, not one person's memory.

This is one of the most common misconceptions I hear from property managers and it's a dangerous one.

Under the Residential Tenancies Act, your obligation as a property manager is triggered by knowledge of a hazard or issue not by a formal complaint from the tenant. If you were told about something informally, in a message, in passing at an inspection and you can't show what you did about it, you have a problem.

Your file needs to document not just what happened, but what you did in response. Every time.
