The commission is based on the property type and location
We list on Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo/Stayz and more, syncing calendars and pricing from one owner dashboard. On the Gold Coast, demand shifts significantly across the year. Schoolies week in November brings high-volume short bookings across Surfers Paradise and Broadbeach. Magic Millions in January and the GC500 in October drive premium short-break demand. School-holiday periods across all states fill mid-range dates through summer and Easter. We tune pricing and minimum-night rules around each of these windows, tighten rate floors for peak weekends, then ease mid-week to avoid dead calendar gaps between events.
A well-managed two-bedroom on the Gold Coast typically achieves an average daily rate of A$371 and 68% occupancy, generating around A$92,121 in annual gross revenue. January is the strongest single month, with summer demand running from December through to late February. During major event weeks, ADR for a two-bedroom commonly runs around 15% above baseline, roughly A$427 per night, with the sharpest peaks around Schoolies in November, Magic Millions in January and the GC500 in October. Mid-week occupancy outside those windows softens, so minimum-night settings and weekday pricing adjustments make a real difference to full-year returns. Professionally managed Gold Coast listings consistently outperform self-managed ones, mainly through stronger pricing discipline and multi-platform reach.
The team is professional, responsive, and truly understands what it takes to manage short-term rentals effectively.
I’ve been incredibly lucky with Alex Taylor: professional, friendly, and always helpful. He’s handled everything brilliantly - I’d give him 6 stars if I could.
For the past year, my Houst contact has been incredibly helpful - coordinating repairs, upgrades, and even being on-site when needed. Super reliable and accommodating.

Commission is results-based: 14% for full-time management or 20% for part-time, and you only pay when bookings land. Every plan includes dynamic pricing, multi-platform listings, professional photography, 24/7 guest messaging and cleaning coordination. No setup fees, no lock-in contracts.
For peak weekends and major event windows we set smart minimum nights to protect your nightly rate, then release mid-week availability at competitive prices to keep occupancy moving. We track local event calendars, school-holiday periods and Gold Coast-specific demand patterns to keep your pricing sharp across the full year.
Before you list, check the local rules. On the Gold Coast, compliance usually comes down to zoning/approvals, building & fire safety, strata/lease permissions, and tax reporting. Use the full rules guide for details.
