The $25 million raised in part by Antler Global and X15, will enable :Different to expand nationally, as it continues to build out both its team of property managers, and its technological capabilities.

:Different raises $25 million through its Series B, led by Commonwealth Bank venture-scaling entity, x15ventures, and Antler, and will also see CBA and :Different form a strategic partnership to collaborate on exclusive offers and benefits to reach homeowners across the country.

A major big four bank has made an investment in a fast-growing Australian company revolutionizing the property management industry called “:Different”, which has thousands of owners, tenants and properties under management.

PMVA CEO Tiffany Bowtell says small to medium property management agencies will need to become more client-centric to compete with :Different, whose data-driven mindset to the customer experience is what sets them apart.

 :Different makes it easy for owners to monitor and report on their investment, for good tenants to live in the property, and for services and problems at the property to be undertaken or resolved efficiently and quickly.

Commonwealth Bank has taken its homeownership “platform” concept a step further with the announcement of a strategic partnership and investment with a property management company called :Different.

With over 26 years of real estate experience, Kasey McDonald, :Different's Head Of Field Ops & Leasing gives her take on finding the right investment property as an investor and rentvestor herself.

Well-presented, decluttered properties, with no obvious maintenance or repairs outstanding generally attract the best tenants. If the property is tenanted, landlords should incentivise tenants to present the property in the best way, says Shannyn Laird our head of operations, with much more on securing the right tenant.

Mina Radhakrishnan, our Co-Founder, who launched a property management company :Different from her apartment in Darlinghurst five years ago is now among the founders of the Tech Council Australia.
