Surf Parade Roadworks Update

The $4.5 Million redevelopment of Surf Parade is

nearing completion of Stage 1, which is exciting

news especially for our office workers who have

been battling the dust and noise for close to three

months now.

Stage 1 Completion date

A completion date for Stage 1 has been identified

as Friday 9th December.

To date Gold Coast City Council has made

significant upgrades to the underground

infrastructure. These include future proofing the

storm water capacity, realignment and installation

of a new water main and valves along the street

installation of new electrical pits along both sides

of Surf Parade, installation of a new slimline

drain, kerb and channel along the entire length of

the street and construction of a brand new road.

Parking over the Christmas Period

Unmetered street parking in Surf Parade will be

available when the road re opens on 9th

December.

Property Improvements and Maximising Returns

A well-maintained rental property not only ensures happy

tenants, but also higher rents. It makes good sense for

investors to spend money on their existing assets to increase

the rental return, because doing so creates more cash flow.

And in an environment of low interest rates, which we are

seeing right now, it is even more relevant. With the surge of

tenants we are seeing on the Gold Coast, and our vacancy

rate at less than 1% we are seeing a trend with investors

investing some money into properties in terms of

renovations and achieving higher weekly rents.

The trick is knowing which renovations are going to increase

the value of your asset and bring in higher rents, so you can

avoid overcapitalising on it.

Simple Renovations to Maximise your Return.

1. Clean and Paint walls.

2. Install new blinds and/or curtains .

3. Improve/ offer more storage solutions.

4. Install new door handles/ cupboard and draw handles.

5. Create brighter areas with new lighting, and different

wattage light bulbs.

6. Air Conditioning or Ceiling fans– this is a Queensland

must.

7. Security– offering a good secure property with quality

locks and screens

8. Have the property wired for the modern day with

correct phone lines, Foxtel, internet connection.

Remember to think hard before you DIY, and there are a few

basic factors you need to keep in mind, like time and money.

Our agency can offer renovation packages tailor made to the

particular property.
