Holt, ACT 2615, contains the Kippax Centre, the group centre for west Belconnen that includes Kippax Fair, and borders open farm and bushland. Rental homes here are often houses, with some apartments and townhouses. Distinct Properties manages rental homes in Holt, and our property management handles leasing, upkeep and inspections for each of these home types. Distinct Properties has arranged at least 13 leases in Holt, 10 of them since January 2020, when its records became complete.

Holt was gazetted in 1970 and named after Harold Holt, a former Prime Minister, and its streets carry the names of Australian sportsmen and sportswomen. Drake Brockman Drive, MacNaughton Street, Starke Street and Southern Cross Drive frame much of the suburb, which adjoins Higgins, Latham, Macgregor and Strathnairn and sits beside farm and bushland. The Kippax Centre is the group centre serving the surrounding suburbs, with Kippax Fair, the Kippax library and the Kippax Interchange.

Many Holt rentals are freestanding houses from the suburb's early decades, alongside a smaller number of apartments and townhouses. Older houses can call for work on roofs, gutters, heating and wet areas, while apartments and townhouses bring owners corporation rules and shared maintenance. Homes within walking distance of Kippax are convenient for shopping and buses, and an owner can make the most of that by keeping the home tidy, well lit and simple to look after.

Holt appeals to renters who want Kippax Fair, the library and the bus interchange within reach, along with sporting fields and open country on the suburb's fringe.

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

Holt questions

What is the Kippax area like for renters without a car?

Workable, thanks to the Kippax Centre. Kippax Fair, the library and other services sit together there, and the Kippax Interchange is served by the R2 Rapid, which links Kippax with Belconnen, the City and Fyshwick. We note walking distances to the centre and interchange in listings, so applicants can plan their week without a car.

What happens when something breaks in my Holt rental?

The tenant reports it to us and we assess what is needed. For routine repairs we get a quote from a suitable trade and seek your approval, unless you have set an amount we can approve on your behalf. For anything that cannot wait, we arrange a trade as a priority and let you know what has been done, then keep the paperwork and invoices together for your records.

Rentals in Holt run under the Residential Tenancies Act 1997 (ACT). Our landlord FAQs cover bonds, notice and rent increases. This is general information about ACT tenancy law and real estate agent conduct from Distinct Property Management, a licensed ACT real estate agency, not legal advice. Rules differ in NSW and other states. For a dispute, contact the ACT Civil and Administrative Tribunal (ACAT) or a Canberra tenancy advocate.
