STRAIGHT ANSWERS
Understand the position before you decide.
The first conversation should remove uncertainty and avoid pressure. These are the questions people most often ask before speaking with Focal.
Will Focal give me the highest appraisal?
We will give you a realistic view supported by evidence and explain the range, assumptions and strategy. We will not inflate a number simply to win an appointment.
What does it cost to sell with Focal?
Our sales commission is agreed between 2% and 3% + GST, plus the agreed advertising and professional photography. Styling depends on the property. If the property is not sold within 30 days, our commission reduces to between 1% and 1.5% + GST, subject to the signed appointment and campaign conditions.
Do I have to list after a consultation?
No. The consultation is complimentary and there is no obligation to appoint Focal. Its purpose is to help you understand the decision.
Why do you call it Investment Management?
Because a landlord owns an investment asset, not an administration file. We manage tenancy, rent, communication, maintenance and risk with the whole property in view.
Do landlords with multiple properties receive different pricing?
Yes. Our standard ongoing fee is 8% + GST, with tailored portfolio pricing generally between 6% and 7% + GST. The final fee depends on the properties and required service.
Where does Focal operate?
Our office is in Underwood. Our main service areas are Underwood, Springwood, Rochedale, Rochedale South, Kuraby, Eight Mile Plains, Woodridge, Greater Brisbane and the Gold Coast. We also specialise across the wider Brisbane and Gold Coast regions.
What real estate services does Focal provide in Underwood?
Focal is a full service real estate agency. Our Underwood team assists with residential and commercial sales, residential and commercial leasing, property management, sales and rental appraisals, market reviews and property consultation.
Can Focal help with commercial real estate?
Yes. Focal works across residential and commercial property. The appropriate sales, leasing or management strategy is confirmed after we understand the property, location and owner objectives.
How should I compare property managers in Underwood?
Compare the full management service rather than one fee. Ask who is accountable, what inspection evidence you receive, how rent and maintenance decisions are handled, how issues are communicated and what the transition process looks like if you change managers.
How quickly will someone contact me?
Our office hours are Monday to Friday, 9:30am to 5:00pm, Brisbane time. We aim to respond within one working hour of receiving your enquiry. Enquiries received after hours are picked up on the next business day.
