Property management with an investor's perspective.
Whether you're looking to buy, preparing to rent or wondering if your current property manager is doing enough, Rubix Realty gives you practical property advice from someone who manages investments, and owns them too.
No hard sell. Just a conversation about your property, your plans and what makes sense from here.
Pat Mears, owner & property manager
Choose the option that best matches where you are right now.
Not sure your property is getting the management it deserves? Start with a second opinion.
Get a second opinion on your current management, rental position and potential opportunities, without committing to making a change.
Pat looks at the things that quietly cost owners money: rent that has drifted under the market, inspections that stopped happening, maintenance that was never followed up. You get a plain-English read on where you stand.
Bought, built or renovated? Let's get your property rental-ready.
Get a Rental Performance Appraisal with local rental evidence and practical advice to position your property for the best result.
The appraisal is grounded in what is actually leasing in Maitland and the Hunter this month, not a round number to win the listing. You'll know the realistic range, who your likely tenant is, and what is worth doing before the first open.
Before you commit, look at it through a property manager's eyes.
Property Profiling gives you an investor's and property manager's perspective before you buy or build, so you can make smarter decisions.
Many properties look attractive on paper and disappoint once they are leased: rental estimates the market will not support, new builds competing with identical stock in the same estate, layouts tenants pass over. A Property Profile finds that before it costs you.
More than a property manager. I'm an investor too.
Because I'm both a property manager and a property investor, I know what's at stake. I make these decisions too.
That means you get advice that's practical, honest and focused on protecting your investment and maximising its performance. The business owner is also the property manager: no hand-offs, no call centre, and the person who takes your call is the person who knows your property.

What Maitland owners and tenants say
Having dealt with (literally) dozens of property managers, I can entrust my properties to Patrick with confidence. His professional expertise, thoroughness, and commitment to providing great service leaves me with no doubt that he is one of the most reliable and dedicated property managers in the area.

Rubix Realty looks after our property in Maitland, and Patrick has been excellent. Since we are interstate it's great to have trust in someone who genuinely cares about the property and us.
Michael & Leeca Rigby
Cannot recommend Patrick enough. He has made owning and renting a breeze. I have utilised a few property managers over the years and I just wish I knew Patrick sooner.

I would like to recommend Patrick Mears as a Property Manager. He was able to take over the management of our property that had been severely damaged by previous management and tenants. Patrick met and organised repairs, workmen and then suitable tenants with little fuss. He let me have as much or as little to do with the process as suited my husband and I. At all times I found him to be extremely professional and prompt at answering all queries.
Karen & David W
Thank you for managing so well our residential investment property over the last few years. We appreciate you and are very happy to recommend you to any property owner as a trustworthy and price competitive company, willing to work to achieve the very best rental outcome for both us as owners and for the peace and stability of good tenants. Should we have the opportunity again to attain an investment property you would be our first choice as Property Manager.
Paul Adams & Amber Moloney
