For tradies

A mobile-first workspace for assigned maintenance jobs.

Assigned tradies use RentalKey as a job workspace for the work an owner has authorised. It is not a contractor marketplace, payout platform or unrestricted property-access system.

01

Assigned-job access only

Tradies see only assigned jobs and the property context required for that work.

  • No unassigned jobs
  • No unrelated properties
  • No owner portfolio or rent records

02

Quote records

Quote submission records proposed scope, price, GST treatment, conditions and availability for owner review.

  • Owner approval remains required
  • Submission does not start payment
  • RentalKey does not approve expenditure automatically

03

Appointment and access context

Appointment information separates tenant availability, owner-provided notes, proposed times, confirmed appointments and lawful entry authority.

  • Availability is not entry authority
  • Assignment is not unrestricted access
  • Legal notices are not automatic platform messages

04

Progress and completion evidence

Progress, completion notes, photographs, supporting documents, warranty information and follow-up recommendations stay attached to the job.

  • Evidence upload where supported
  • Completion state follows existing workflow
  • Follow-up recommendations remain owner-reviewed

05

Invoice records

Invoice submission records the contractor invoice. It does not guarantee approval or payment.

  • Invoice amount and GST where supported
  • Invoice file and status
  • No RentalKey contractor payout

06

Job messages

Messages are limited to authorised job-related communication and are not legal notices or entry authority.

  • No internal Operations notes
  • No unrelated tenant communication
  • No other contractors’ commercial information

Common questions

Does a trusted-tradie contact automatically get portal access?

No. A trusted-tradie contact record is separate from portal access. Only an explicit authorised job assignment can provide tradie portal access.

Does RentalKey pay contractors?

No. Quote and invoice submission record contractor information for owner review. RentalKey does not hold contractor funds or pay contractors.

Can a tradie see owner rent or portfolio information?

No. Tradie access is scoped to assigned jobs and does not expose rent records, owner portfolio data, full tenancy records or internal notes.
