    Hi,

    I've just purchased a property in Trinity beach which I'll shortly rent out. It looks as if fees are close to twice those in Victoria (5% v 9%).

    Does anyone have any recommendations or advice on what standard fees are? I've also looked into Sure for insurance, any other recommendations?

    thanks

    8-9% is around market rate for that area. If you have multiple properties with the one agency/PM you might be able to try negotiate for a better rate (closer to ~7%).

    Agree with the others that 8-9% seems standard for the area.

    I've been extremely happy with the way Purple Oak have managed my IP in Cairns, they've really taken good care of it and have gone the extra mile on more than one occasion.

    Maybe give Jo a call on 07 4054 3563.
