Two years is a long time when your circumstances change.

The ACTU’s proposal to make two-year lease offers the default raises an important question: what would less flexibility mean for property owners?

Longer leases can offer stability and help retain great tenants. But plans to sell, move back in, renovate need, arise of costs, rent arrears locked in for two years, needs consideration too.

The commitment needs to suit the property and the people involved.

Would you feel comfortable offering a two-year lease?

This is a proposal, not current Queensland law. Tenants would still be able to choose a shorter term.

We bought a house together!

A nail biting month and a half, we are in such a waiting period in our lives right now but our faith couldn’t be stronger.

Such an eye opening experience being on the buyer end, as a client/customer for a change.

This year has been all about learning and listening, wherever I go, the trips overseas and experiences I’ve had, help me to improve in my role and remind me why I’m doing it.

This is a personal why, a home for our future family, a home for our dog Tommi 🤍

With borrowing costs continuing to rise, experienced property management matters more than ever.

It can be tempting to reduce expenses by choosing the lowest management fee.

However, this is rarely where the greatest savings are created.

I’ve spoken with many landlords recently and the conversation has been around costs, I’m telling them to look at the actual management, how experienced and proactive their PM is, maintenance track record, re-financing, and speaking with a financial advisor or broker.

The real financial value of a strong Asset/Property Manager comes from reducing vacancy, achieving above market rent, negotiating rent increases with skill, selecting quality tenants, controlling unnecessary expenses and identifying risks before they become expenses.

Investors should absolutely review their expenses, but management is not simply another cost to reduce.

Done well, it is one of the services responsible for protecting the property’s income, condition and overall performance and improving the NET income.

When margins are tighter, choosing the right Property Manager becomes even more important, not less.

Did I mention, we went to Japan? 🇯🇵

This was a fascinating trip, and I came back with a grateful mind for the way we live. They live in small apartments, which explains how Tokyo is the most populated city in the world with 37 billion people.

Not once did I see a backyard. With grass.

We do maintain our yards and streets better, no weeds.

Think about that. We live in a four bedroom house as tenants and owners, and we complain about it, so much. We are living rich lives and we don’t even know it. Because we often don’t have perspective.

But Japan runs like clockwork, the trains, the way people line up single file for the train, it’s all marked out on the floor, social harmony is obvious, they are thoughtful, extremely patient. They dress well. They eat well.

Japan also records some of the lowest rates of obesity in the world.

We don’t have this here.

It got me to thinking about service and the way we show up for clients, that going the extra mile is the right thing to do, always. Effort always. People first, always.

We made friends with locals, this is was my favourite part.

The friends we made, that we will probably never see again. One girl we met at Round 1 invited us to eat at the dumping place she works at. We took a train 40 minutes to Shibuya one night and found her at work, and surprised her, that’s photo 5.

We are off to America next 👀 very soon…

Rents across some Logan & Ipswich suburbs have risen by 11.67% in the past 12 months - an average increase of around $70 per week. This is significant.

But higher rent doesn’t always mean better cash flow.

With the cost of owning an investment property continuing to rise, now is the time to understand how your property is actually performing.

Are you spending money where you don’t need to?

DM me your suburb for an updated rental market review.

50 new landlords chose AKG in July.

While the market hit pause, our Investment Specialists didn’t. Every one of those owners made the same call, when conditions tighten, you want the safest pair of hands in Brisbane managing your asset.

Boutique brand. Backed by the biggest brand in Australia.

POV: You text me between Monday and Friday.

Me: replying from the supermarket, the car, a shop, a property… basically anywhere with phone reception.

Communication is one of the biggest frustrations people have with property managers, and it’s one thing I never want my clients to worry about when working with me.

My clients shouldn’t have to follow up three times just to get an answer. Even if I’m still working on a solution, you’ll know where things are at.

The headlines have been all about the sales market lately… but what about the rental market?

Here’s what’s changed over the last 4 weeks -

Days on market are starting to creep up slightly.

More rentals are online at the moment with many being withdrawn from sales listings.

Rental prices have stabilised in many areas (for now)

Despite this, rents are still sitting higher than they were this time last year.

So, what does this mean for investors?

The market is beginning to rebalance, but it’s still very much a landlord’s market in many suburbs. Pricing correctly, presenting your property well, and having the right leasing strategy are becoming more important than ever.

The big question is… what’s next? Will rents continue to hold, level out, or start climbing again?

The first of many investor dinners with Ray White AKG. Hosted by AlisonGarayBDM. Such a great event she put together for investors in our local market.

Exisiting clients attended and I took away 3 new things from the night.

We heard from an insurance company, a build specialist and surveyor, broker, buyers agency, building and pest inspector and lawyer.

Great tips and advice shared for each stage of the investment journey.

Six years ago, Greenbank looked very different. Today, it’s one of the markets I get asked about most.

With strong tenant demand and rents rising over the past 12 months, I share what I’m seeing firsthand and why investors continue to watch this suburb closely.

This suburb sees a lot of spillover from its Flagstone and Jimboomba, being closer to the city and captures tenants that can’t get into these markets and people building that need to rent for 12 months.

From new estates taking shape to strong rental demand and rising values, this market continues to attract investors for good reason.

In this reel, I share what I’m seeing on the ground, where Greenbank has come from, how much rent has increased in 12 months alone, and why I’m still keeping a close eye on this market.

Thinking about investing in Greenbank? I’d love to share my knowledge if you’re an owner occupier, currently own an investment or building in the area. DM me!
