The record sale by Resort Brokers Australia of the $600m ‘FV’ by Gurner management rights to Mantra Group has capped a run of chart-topping sales for the growing national accommodation property specialist. With 970 apartments plus commercial and leisure facilities spanning three landmark towers underway by Gurner in Brisbane’s Fortitude Valley, FV is the largest management rights ever sold off-the-plan in Australia. The sale was handled by Resort Brokers’ national sales manager, Trudy Crooks, and her brother, off-the-plan specialist, Tim Crooks.  They said it was an outstanding result and a win-win-win for everyone, particularly for FV apartment owners who will have such a quality, experiencedRead More →

Conventional wisdom in the real estate industry has always purported there are really only 2 property portals that ‘matter’: RealEstate.com.au and Domain.com.au. According to Roy Morgan, RealEstate.com.au enjoys 4.5M visitors per month, nationally, with 3.2M using Domain.com.au. Of that 3.2M Domain users, 2.2M use both Realestate.com.au and Domain.com.au. Michele Levine – CEO, Roy Morgan Research, says: “Of the one million people who access Domain and not Realestate.com.au in a four-week period, over 30% are Mid-Life Households, aged 45-65 with no children under 16 still at home. For Realestate.com.au, a similar proportion of its 2.3 million exclusive audience is Young Parents, aged under 45 and with kids. So this meansRead More →

Our friends at Resort Brokers invited me along to their industry seminar last night. They had guest speakers from Urbis and Bambrick Media and plenty of managers were in attendance. Was a great night, highly informative. Urbis presented first and had some interesting information and data analysis in relation to development through the CBD. The short of it was: Yes, lots of buildings have been completed recently, yes, downward pressure had been placed on rentals… but vacancy rates on new stock are still only at 1.6%, and new projects being completed have fallen off sharply with the remaining to be completed representing a much smallerRead More →

  “When America sneezes the world catches cold”.  A cliché perhaps but with some truth behind it I suspect. Consider this : The United States is the world’s largest national economy in nominal terms and second largest according to purchasing power parity (PPP), representing 22% of nominal global GDP and 17% of gross world product (GWP). The United States’ GDP was estimated to be $17.914 trillion as of Q2 2015. Australia’s top 3 two way trading partners are China, Japan and The USA. China is the world’s largest export economy and the USA and Japan are two of China’s top 3 trading partners. Anyway, on to thisRead More →

I am going to touch on a subject that relates to everyone on a daily basis. As business owners, do we name and shame customers that cost us money? I don’t care what business you operate. I guarantee all of you have at least one customer who believes they are better than you and everyone else. That one customer will simply refuse to pay for services/products rendered. We have quite a few! It is very hard to sit back and watch while they keep trading with their big franchise name knowing that the smaller operators cannot afford the legal fees or resources to fight them. It isRead More →

It’s over. The longest running (and most expensive) dispute over a deck in Australia has been decided by the High Court.  There are no appeals from there so we now have the definitive statement on what a body corporate’s decision making obligations are based on. Round one went to the deck owner (Commissioner’s Office) Round two went to the complaining owners (QCAT) Round three went to the deck owner (Qld Supreme Court) We wrote an article after the Supreme Court decision here. The opponents to the deck won. The smartest group of lawyers in the country (being the High Court) has decided that the oppositionRead More →

September 1st 2016 saw us launch the new site interface. The objective was to ensure content and advertising was more integrated so the site flowed better, and also ensure we had better support for mobile devices. Ensuring less pitfalls for our managers was also a big priority, so we now screen uploaded images to check they are named correctly, inspection times can now be added using an html5 calendar widget, and images are uploaded in sequence now so corrupt files are easier to spot. Other enhancements include the ability for Brokers to buy more featured listing credits as they need them. PDF brochures can nowRead More →
