House to rent in Hallett Cove, Adelaide SA

Hi, I hope you don't mind an Aussie posting in this forum, but I have a house I have rented for the last 11yrs to 6 successive South African Families (including 2 brothers). The house is in Hallett Cove SA, where you'll find lots of other South Africans and a lifestyle everyone seems to enjoy.

So details about the house:
3 bedroom, 1 bathroom, 1 toilet.
2 bedrooms with built in cupboards.
Space for parking 2 cars off street.
It is on a sloping block facing the sea, and has sea "glimpses".
It has efficient heating & cooling.
I have the electricity and gas accounts in my name, which makes it easier for new arrivals who don't know which company to go with.
It is within 200m of a primary to year 12 school.
It is within 300m of a train station to the city.
It is withing 500m of medium sized shopping centre.
The house is mine, and I will handle everything, no agents.
I keep the rent below the market rate, and try to keep it the same until you move out, ie, current tenants have had a fixed rent for 2.5yrs.
The address is 12 Manunda Way Hallett Cove, South Australia.

The reason I prefer (strongly) to rent to South Africans are:
Most of you have owned houses before and know how/why to look after a house.
You have all been grateful for me letting you rent the house.
I do not care if you don't have a rental history I can check, I understand.
I do not care if you don't have a job, I've seen everyone get jobs really quick, I understand.
I understand that your furniture is coming soon in a container, so I lend everyone some camping chairs, cooking gear, and a 12V car fridge to get you by.
I don't mind if you're family comes to visit, I had up to 11 people in the house at once!!
Everyone has paid the rent and looked after the house, that's all I ask.
And it's great for me to see families arrive, with a tenseness in their face and manner, and gradually, over about 3 months, relax, then 12 months later be absolutely settled.

The house is available after 22nd December 2014, hopefully I find someone soon, otherwise I'll have to rent to Aussie's!!

I can provide contact details of previous tenants if you would like to check that I am for real (this is the exact opposite of what happens normally).

If you would like to call me: 0437 383 998

I can provide photos of the house if you like.

Regards,
Paul Whittenbury
