The following are excluded from the above calculator as they are either an once off fee or an optional fee:
-
Title Search Fee. This is $28.70 (as at 1st July 2020). This is the only way a property manager knows whether all the owners of the property has agreed to enter the management agreement. (Box Property Management does charge this for new clients)
-
Optional Photography Fee. Professional photography starts from $110 for~8 photos and can be over $200. (Normal photography is included at Box Property Management and allows for your property to be listed within 2-3 business days, whereas Professional Photography could takes 3-5 working days and mostly longer depending on the photographers availability. i.e. unnecessary vacancy for you)
-
Optional Premium Advertising Fee. This cost $165 (inc GST) instead of the standard Advertising Fee of $110 (inc GST) - i.e. $55 more if you want to get one of those feature listing. For the average/median house this is usually not necessary and depends on the supply of rental property in the suburb.
-
Optional For Rent/For Lease signs at the front of your property until property is leased. This cost $110 (inc GST) and is usually not necessary as majority of properties are leased within 2-3 weeks. Exceptions are when your property is in a high traffic location (i.e. main road) or if you own multiple units in the complex (i.e. it will take months to lease all the units out).
-
Court Attendance Fees. This cost $110/hour (inc GST) up to a maximum of 4 hours (i.e. $440 inc GST). Usually when things get to this stage, nobody wins. This is something Box Property Management work to avoid and can be largely mitigated via landlord insurance.
-
Centrelink Deposit Fee. $0.99 per deposit, this usually works out to be around $25.74 per year because Cetrelink payments are paid fortnightly. This gives landlord security of income as it comes directly from Centrelink where applicable and it is a fee worth paying if it applies to you.
