Our own Marie McMenemy shared her favourite insider secrets with everyone at our Seminar Series back in September. As the most experienced property management expert in Brisbane’s Inner South there was fantastic insight for everyone.
Disputes at the end of a lease can be expensive and heartbreaking. Marie shared some horror stories and a great action plan to ensure property investors setup their tenancy the right way.
The cameras were rolling so those who couldn’t be there can still glean from Marie’s expertise.
Our Seminar Series will commence again for 2017 on February 23. We host a seminar each month that provides valuable information for home owners, buyers and sellers from the voices of experts in the area.
