New Heights – Gold Coast Property Managers’ Ongoing Battle for a Share of the Summer Crowd

Summer and the Gold Coast go hand-in-hand. Many holidayers flock to the Gold Coast from Brisbane, New South Wales and beyond. From schoolies, families on school holidays and couples getting away, you’ll find every type of person enjoying their time in the sun. Of course, with that comes the need for good accommodation. In the summer season, property managers are vying to be the place that gets fully booked out. But with lots of competition, buildings need more than fancy rooms to pull in customers. It’s time to think about exteriors.

The Image of a Building – Figuratively and Literally

In an effort to save expenses, high rise property managers tend to prioritise modernising rooms over exterior maintenance. But in an age where accommodation is advertised on Instagram influencer pages and listed on online booking sites, a dreary façade can give guests a negative first impression. And an old photo simply isn’t good enough – it can seriously disappoint customers and leave you with mediocre reviews.

If your high rise is looking good on the street, you grow its perceived value (and actual value) and passersby will want to stay at your place next summer.

If you’re serious about boosting the desirability of your building, it’s time to bring out the big guns and make a real difference to your façade. That means an update with high rise painting, concrete and crack repairs and structure maintenance.

The best part is, these services aren’t just cosmetic, they ensure that your building is long-lasting, up to code and performing at its best. Holidayers won’t just see the improvement, they’ll feel it too.

What to Look for in High Rise Services

So, how do we get to the point where customers click on your accommodation listings? How do we ensure that their excitement bubbles as your building comes into view?

The rope access companies you choose need to be up to standard. They must have a proven track record of reliability and professionalism. If you end up with a cheap and inexperienced company that cuts corners and fails to uphold your brand, you’ll spend more money fixing the damage — both to the property and to your reputation.

Now, while the weather is cooler, is the perfect time to get ready for the warmer seasons. Property managers want to minimise downtime as much as possible and there are two ways to do this. The first is having a reliable, professional and efficient rope access service. The second is preventative care. That means regular maintenance and inspections that ensure that a surprise emergency won’t hit you later, putting you out of commission for much longer than you hoped for.

Do your research, look at reviews, check for licenses and guarantees, get recommendations and ask your potential contractor all the relevant questions. It’s all in preparation for winning out over your competitors in the Gold Coast summer season.
