For years now, managers have despaired at the huge cost for Premier ads on RealEstate.com.au. We all know ( as carefully researched here: https://theonsitemanager.com.au/news/feature-listing-upgrade-value-quantified-a-case-study/ ) that upgrade listings acheive a vastly quicker settlement time than standards… and just recently RealEstate.com.au were kind enough to allow us to nominate some of our stubborn sales listings to Premier Plus to see what we thought of it. The manager whose listing was chosen said the difference was, and I quote directly: “night and day”. She’d had a 7-figure apartment stuck on the market for a month with barely a nibble and the owner was about to pull the lotRead More →

The concept of a ‘partnership’ or ‘syndicate’, whereby a group of investors pool their financial resources to leverage their purchasing power to acquire an asset, is by no means a new one. Such arrangements have been prevalent in the commercial property and freehold hotel/motel market for decades. In the management rights industry, syndicates are becoming increasingly common in the purchase of large-scale, high netting businesses. So, what are the key components of a management rights syndicate? What do they offer to their partners? And what advantages do they hold over other operational/investment models? PARTNER ROLESAs the name suggests, partnerships are established by uniting a groupRead More →

I find newborn infants interesting. They seem to appear with little personality and a case of sheer exhaustion, presumably due to the rigors of their recent journey. They spend most of their time sleeping or crying and apparently pining for a return to the warm safe place from whence they recently emerged. As such I’ve previously been one of those people who finds the little ones far more appealing once they become mobile and start to develop a personality. In the case of our 3 year old granddaughter that would be very mobile and some personality indeed! We love her dearly but after a dayRead More →

As the state peak body for real estate professionals, the Real Estate Institute of Queensland (REIQ) has today welcomed reassigned Ministers to the Palaszczuk Government Cabinet.

The Holden Monaro is considered, among a certain demographic of the population, an icon of Australian motoring. Indeed, when we actually made things like cars the modern version produced between 2001 and 2005 sold in vast numbers to petrol heads, mums and dads and collectors alike. Man, I loved that car when it was launched but alas, as a poor long-suffering PAYG slave I could not afford one. So, I’d spend time in Holden showrooms just looking at the thing and dreaming of the day………. It will come as no surprise that as a Toowoomba girl the managing director also had a soft spot forRead More →

The REIQ says last month’s pause in interest rate hikes has proven to be a short-lived relief for mortgage holders, as the RBA has today hiked the cash rate by 25 basis points to 3.85% – the highest level since April 2012. REIQ COO Dean Milton said the RBA’s decision to forge ahead with its aggressive tightening cycle would weigh heavily on homeowners and investors. “We have seen regulatory chaos from State and Federal Governments, and whiplashing back to another interest rate rise only adds to this pain,” Mr Milton said. “There’s barely been time for the market to absorb the lagged impact of theRead More →

Ian Crooks – ResortBrokers Chairman Back in the ‘70s in my native New Zealand everyone used to talk about this sparkling paradise across the Tasman called the Gold Coast. When I first visited in ’79 the hype didn’t disappoint. I was absolutely blown away by it. It had a beachline of golden sand that seemingly stretched forever, luxury high-rise to rival Miami, and there was a real energy about the place. The tallest building at the time was a circular apartment building called Focus built by the late great Lou Ferro, who was a friend of mine. It was a tremendously eye-catching skyrise that lookedRead More →

The managing director and I recently celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary. Yes, I know. How the hell could she have tolerated me for so long? Surely a mystery for the ages and not one I am keen to shine a light upon. In any event this significant life milestone was cause for both joy and reflection. How do relationships stand the test of time? In our case it’s very simple, I agree with everything she says and when that fails I correct her, seek medical attention for that nasty bump on my head and buy jewellery and fizzy drinks. She, on the other hand, putsRead More →

The Real Estate Institute of Queensland (REIQ) is calling out a questionable and concerning move by the State Government to treat rent control separately to stage two rental reforms, without the transparent legislative process that is reasonably expected. The Deputy Premier has stated that a reform to limit rent increases to once-yearly will apply from 1 July 2023 onwards – but the transition arrangements will mean that contractually agreed rent increases after this date will also no longer be valid. REIQ CEO Antonia Mercorella said it was absurd and questioned the legality of the retrospective nature of the new laws. “As a property investor, youRead More →
