An investor made an above-asking offer on an inner Perth apartment, conditional on securing a higher rental return. Our business development manager and sales representative worked together to negotiate a new 12-month lease at $50 per week above the existing rate. The sale completed, the seller achieved a record price, the buyer locked in their required return on investment, and Bourkes continues to manage the property to this day.
Since December 2020, Bourkes has managed three Perth investment properties for an interstate owner based in Sydney. FaceTime inspections replaced written reports, keeping the owner fully informed from 4,000 kilometres away. One lease was renewed six months early, two break leases were re-tenanted at the very first home open, and the relationship has grown so strong that tenants referred their own friends to the property.
