SmartYield Property Group: AI-Driven Rental Property Management

Company Overview & Professional Services

SmartYield Property Group represents the next generation of property management services, where precision meets innovation and landlords come first. Founded by Kevin Haase, a former military engineer with extensive experience in mining and aviation, our company brings unparalleled discipline and attention to detail to rental property management.

We identified a critical gap in the traditional real estate market: landlords were consistently undervalued and underserved by agencies focused on sales commissions rather than property management excellence. SmartYield was created to fill this void, offering exclusive rental property management services powered by AI-driven automation and delivered by senior, highly skilled property managers.

Our transparent fee structure eliminates hidden costs, while our innovative approach maximizes property performance and provides landlords with the peace of mind they deserve. At SmartYield, we don’t just manage properties—we optimize them.

Kevin Haase: The Visionary Behind SmartYield Property Group

Founder & Managing Director

SmartYield Property Group was founded on a foundation of precision, service, and innovation. Our founder, Kevin Haase, brings a unique background that sets our company apart in the property management industry.

Kevin’s professional journey began in the Australian military, where he developed the critical skills that now define SmartYield’s approach: impeccable timing, meticulous attention to detail, and unwavering precision. These military-instilled values became the cornerstone of our service philosophy.

Following his military service, Kevin transitioned into electronic engineering, applying his technical expertise across the demanding fields of mining and aviation. This engineering background provided him with analytical thinking, problem-solving capabilities, and a systematic approach to complex challenges—skills that prove invaluable in property management.

Industry Mentorship & Strategic Guidance

Kevin’s transition into property was guided by Tim Allen, a seasoned industry expert with over 20 years of experience and the founder of two successful businesses: Moreton Bay Finance and IPS Buyers Agent. Tim’s mentorship was instrumental in identifying the market opportunity that led to SmartYield’s creation.

Through extensive market research and direct feedback from property investors, a clear pattern emerged: landlords consistently expressed frustration with traditional real estate agencies that failed to prioritize their needs. This insight sparked the founding vision of SmartYield—a company dedicated exclusively to rental property management where landlords’ interests come first.
