I guess most would classify me as a naysayer. But I agree entirely with your first and main comment;

My view such as it is on rnt is that property management is ripe for disruptive technologies to assist the owners who currently choose to privately managed​

their properties, which depending on who you believe is somewhere between 45 – 55% of the market, to attack the fragmented incumbent’s and gain the business of private landlords who use agents but see agents as piss poor value and I also can see rnt adding onto the business a lot of fee generating tools for the private landlord to make managing their properties easier.​

​

The issue I have is that the focus of RNT and what seems to be getting most poster excited is unique page views and rental listings. Neither of these I would argue are much help to a private landlord really.

Looking through, I just cant see many services that RNT currently provide that actually disrupt - or even look like they may in future disrupt - the rental management industry.

I hope they or someone can, because as per one of my previous posts I would love access to some good property self-management services.

Currently though this seems to be second to the market share push and I personally just can't see that being a long-term proposition given the limited (zero ?) cashflow currently, nor short term potential - as its going to be an expensive gig to keep the market share from REA and Domain if they do pull it away in my opinion.
