Trouble-free property sales, purchases and commercial property management in Brisbane
The most important, and most expensive, purchase most of us make during our lifetime is our home – whether it’s a modern city apartment, a pretty suburban house or a heritage home somewhere in a rural area of surpassing beauty. Those in the know have been known to state that the third most stressful activity for us humans after death and divorce is buying or selling a residential property. It’s not just the paperwork, the search for the right home or the right buyer and the stress of the move itself, it’s because, if we’re buying, it has to be perfect and, if we’re selling, we’re letting go of a part of ourselves.
Everyone’s heard the best-known buzzwords in the real estate sector by now – location, location, location! It’s only too true, and only too tricky to get right without professional help. If local authority planning offices aren’t checked carefully, that magnificent view over green acres can turn into the latest version of condo-land or a factory estate almost overnight. Establishing correct land titles and other legal nightmares aren’t for amateurs, and a brand new paint job inside and outside doesn’t mean the foundations are safe!
Over the years, estate agents in general haven’t had a good press, perhaps unfairly in a good few cases. Many real estate agents are long-established family businesses now being run by the adult children of their founders, and know the community and its housing and commercial stock as well as their own back gardens. They’re caring, trustworthy and professional, and finding a good one isn’t that tough, especially if you live in Brisbane. If you’re looking for a choice of real estate agents, Brisbane is well supplied with a long list, and you’ll find Calibre Real Estate right at the top.
These good people don’t just care about profits or targets as to the number of homes sold! They care about the buyers and sellers as regards finding them a home they’re overjoyed with or the right price as part of a hassle-free sale. They’re also experts in property management, offering a first-class service to buy-to-let investors, commercial property owners or those needing to let their home in order to work elsewhere in Australia or overseas for a period of time. For the letting of commercial properties, an experienced Brisbane property manager is essential, and Calibre’s team will take care of everything including overseeing rental payments and dealing with maintenance issues.
Leasing, whether it’s a commercial property or rental home, is a complicated procedure best left to the experts, and involves maximizing rental yields as well as making sure the lessee is financially viable.

Calibre’s excellent marketing strategies utilize signage, print, online and email marketing to their broad database of clients as well as to prospective tenants.

Importantly, your approval will be needed before any changes are made. Once a tenant has been found, Calibre can undertake all aspects of property management on your behalf, with bi-monthly financial statements and reports by email and regular post all part of the service. They’ll also take care of maintenance issues and all payments related to the property such as insurance, water and council rates, leaving you to relax and enjoy the income without worry.
