Case Study Property Management: Rental Property Under Rented Costing the Owner $8,700 per Year
House, Sippy Downs QLD 4556
After being referred to oversee property management, we discovered significant discrepancies in the rental appraisal and maintenance of the property, prompting dissatisfaction from the owner. The market rental appraisal revealed an under-rented property by $150 per week, resulting in a loss of over $7,800 in revenue for the owner. Moreover, the property had not seen a rent increase for over two years and had outstanding maintenance issues left unaddressed. Taking swift action, we adjusted the rent to align with market rates and promptly resolved the maintenance issues. Transparent communication was pivotal—we engaged with the tenant, explaining the rent increase and highlighting market comparisons. Encouragingly, the tenant conducted independent research, affirming the market's validity and expressing contentment to remain. Effective communication with all stakeholders proved instrumental in achieving successful property management outcomes. Talk to us about managing your property today.

Case Study Investing: Building and Developing a Duplex
Woombye Duplex QLD 4555
Sam and Claire sought to maximize returns and capital growth, turning to Blue Wave Property Strategies for investment guidance. The team recommended a duplex in Woombye, located in the Sunshine Coast hinterland, highlighting its potential for rental income to offset mortgage expenses. The land and build project, completed in 2017, required meticulous planning with provisions for interest costs during the 9-month construction phase. The duplex, which was strata-titled, incurred a total cost of $854,000, resulting in an immediate equity uplift of $200,000+. In 2023, with the goal of paying off their owner-occupied debt, Sam and Claire opted to sell. They successfully sold each side for $700,000 and $705,000, respectively, yielding a gross profit of $551,000. For deeper insights, consider connecting with the Blue Wave Property Strategies team.
