Renting Out A Property In Newmarket
Newmarket sits about five kilometres north west of the Brisbane CBD, with a train station and bus routes into the city. Its housing mixes Queenslanders and character homes with a growing number of townhouses and newer homes. Day to day shopping centres on Newmarket Village, and parks and bikeways follow the creek through the area.
Tenants are often families and professionals who want an established suburb close to the city. Schools in and around Newmarket include:
- Newmarket State School
- Windsor State School, nearby
- Kelvin Grove State College, nearby
- Brisbane Grammar School, nearby
- St Joseph’s College, Gregory Terrace, nearby
Choosing A Property Manager In Newmarket
Before you appoint anyone, check their licence, read the appointment form line by line and compare fees on total cost, not just the headline percentage. Ask how they will market the property, select tenants and handle maintenance.
Our guide to property management in Brisbane and guide to property management fees cover what to ask and the Queensland rules every landlord should know.
