This client and her Japanese husband are both high-income individuals living on the Gold Coast. They have always planned to buy another property for rental, with a budget range of approximately $400,000 to $450,000 for a Townhouse or Apartment. They were looking for a property with better security, newer facilities, and easy maintenance.

When searching for investment properties such as Townhouses or Apartments for our client, we pay special attention to the property’s Body Corporate Fee. Since this is an annual fee that needs to be paid, we try to find properties with lower Body Corporate Fees, preferably avoiding expensive maintenance costs like swimming pools or elevators.

This client appointed me as their Buyer’s Agent at the end of April, which coincided with the announcement of a pause in interest rate hikes. This attracted many eager investors who were actively searching for reasonably priced investment properties in the market. Finally, after about a month of effort, we successfully helped our client purchase a property in Zillmere for just over $400,000. The property has 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and 1 parking space. Our property management team is currently managing this property leased at $500 per week.

這位客人跟她的日本籍先生均屬於高收入人士，居住在Gold Coast。他們一直以來都打算買多一間物業出租，預算範圍約為$40-$45萬澳元的Townhouse或Apartment。他們希望找到治安環境較好，設施較新而且易於打理的物業。

在為客人尋找Townhouse或Apartment等作投資物業時，我們會特別注意該物業的管理費用(Body Corp Fee)。因為這是每年需要繳付的費用，我們盡量找Body Corp Fee越低的越好，最好避免泳池或升降機等的昂貴維修費。

這位客人在4月底委託我擔任他們的Buyer’s Agent, 當時正值宣佈暫停加息，所以吸引了不少蠢蠢欲動的投資者，紛紛在市場上尋找價錢較為理想的投資物業。最後，經過大約一個多月的努力，我們成功幫助客人以$40多萬澳元在Zillmere購入了一個擁有2房2廁1車位的物業。並為他們作物業管理，現時租金為 $500 每星期。
