First National Brand - Over the last 22 years First National has created a brand that stands alone in signifying outstanding results through high quality and integrity rich service.

Schrags & Bribie Island First National are both members of the Real Estate Institute of Queensland.  This ensures the company operates within the guidelines and standards set by the institute.

Schrags First National Real Estate have been market leaders in the Bribie Island area for many years.  During this time we have specialised in Property Management offering a large range of services to our many respected landlords.  There are many reasons why Schrags First National Real Estate should manage your investment property.

Our team is committed to customer service and constantly aim to exceed the benchmarks we have set with a commitment to continual improvement.

The Property Management staff are qualified and trained in laws relating to the Tenancies Act and are professionals with the knowledge to be able to efficiently and speedily respond to any situation regarding their clients properties.

It is our policy to develop open and honest communication with our clients and to build mutual trust with them.  We deliver the highest standard of service without losing sight of the importance of personal contact.

Our office is centrally located at 71 Welsby Parade, Bongaree - the first Real Estate office along the beautiful waterfront (Pumicestone Passage), which ensures constant tenancy enquiry.

We adopt a very strict screening process, which aims to obtain the best possible tenant for your property.  Our detailed application form enables us to establish current  and previous tenany and employment history, as well as screening business and personal reference.  We also complete a credit check on the tenants through a National Tenancy Database.  This information is only available to estate agents and advises us if the tenant has outstanding debts or judgements against their name.  This protects you from poor tenants.  We will then contact you direct to discuss the application on its merits and the final choice of the tenant is your decision.

We prepare all the documentation, ensuring stringent legal compliance.  It is also our responsibility to ensure that all requirements to the lease are clearly explained to the tenants at the time of signing this important document and the tenant has to read and understand their obligations.

Rents are reviewed annually, taking into account market conditions and any change in the actual property.  A Landlord can increase the rent at the end of a fixed term agreement with notice or by 2 months notice in writing for a periodic agreement.

Routine inspections are conducted on all properties to ensure the tenancy is running smoothly and to safegueard our clients financial interests.

Condition reports are completed both at the commencement and termination of the tenancy.  This ensures that the property is maintained and left in good condition.
