The Fortitude Valley market
Why the Valley and Newstead rent so well
It's where visitors want to eat, drink and stay, and where young professionals want to live.
Weekend & event guests
Concerts, nightlife, dining and festivals bring guests every weekend, and peak events push rates higher.
Corporate stays
Newstead and the Valley have big office precincts and quick trains to the CBD, which suits stays of several weeks.
Long-term tenants
Newer apartment towers close to trains, offices and dining attract young professionals who want to walk everywhere.
We already manage five apartments in Fortitude Valley, including Utopia and the Galleries, so we know the buildings, the noise and the neighbours.
