Property managers in Higgins, ACT

One of Belconnen's earlier suburbs, Higgins, ACT 2615, was gazetted in 1968 and sits next to Holt and Latham, a short trip from Kippax Fair, the shopping centre for west Belconnen. Its rentals are often older houses. With rental homes under management across the Belconnen district, including Higgins, Distinct Properties provides property management covering leasing, repairs and inspections. Distinct Properties has arranged at least 8 leases in Higgins, 7 of them since January 2020, when its records became complete.

The suburb is named for Henry Bournes Higgins, a politician who went on to sit on the High Court, and its streets honour judges. Gazetted in 1968, it is one of Belconnen's earlier suburbs and sits beside Holt and Latham. Kippax Fair in neighbouring Holt, which serves the west Belconnen area, is the major shopping centre close by, with the Kippax library alongside and the Kippax Interchange nearby. Higgins Oval sits within the suburb itself.

Higgins rentals are often houses built in the suburb's first decades, on blocks with mature gardens. Homes of that era can still have original light fittings, older heating, timber windows and bathrooms that have seen decades of use, so they reward an owner who plans ahead. A short list of priorities, agreed with your property manager and revisited after each routine inspection, helps keep a long-held house comfortable for tenants and practical to maintain.

Renters are drawn by easy access to Kippax Fair and its library, Higgins Oval and nearby open space, and Rapid bus connections at the Kippax Interchange.

Most of the homes we have leased in Higgins are houses.
