 KEY FINDINGS<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Gold Coast commands the highest remuneration per lot
Complexes in Surfers Paradise, Broadbeach, and Coolangatta lead the pack. Premium beachfront resort\/holiday rights are fetching $7,000\u2013$12,000+ per lot in remuneration \u2014 reflecting higher body corporate levies and more intensive management requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Brisbane is the volume leader
Brisbane suburbs (Griffin, Kallangur, Mango Hill, Eight Mile Plains) dominate the permanent management rights category with large complexes of 40\u2013135 lots. The remuneration per lot tends to sit around $3,000\u2013$6,000 but the sheer volume makes them high-income businesses. The standout: Hamilton at $707,914 remuneration across 119 lots ($5,949\/lot) and Eight Mile Plains at $428,653 across 71 lots ($6,038\/lot).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Resort\/Holiday rights earn more per lot but carry more risk
Holiday complexes typically show remuneration per lot of $2,500\u2013$6,000 BUT significantly higher total net income due to letting commissions on top of caretaking remuneration. A Surfers Paradise resort listing shows $358,543 remuneration + $648,862 in letting income across 77 lots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. The Sunshine Coast premium is real
Noosa, Mooloolaba, and Maroochydore complexes command strong remuneration per lot ($5,000\u2013$12,000), supported by consistently high occupancy rates and premium rental returns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Caretaking-only rights offer the best yield on investment
With no letting pool to manage, caretaking-only rights (e.g., Carina at $133,778, Albany Creek at $104,451) offer straightforward income streams at lower price points \u2014 typically a 3\u20134x multiplier on remuneration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
