Runaway Bay, Queensland

Lifestyle Meets Income – High-Performing MR with Marina Access

Under Contract / Offer

Business Description

Limetree Waters East offers a rare chance to acquire a high-performing management rights business in one of the Gold Coast’s most sought-after waterfront enclaves. Located in Runaway Bay, this secure gated community features direct Broadwater access via a private marina, blending lifestyle appeal with a strong and reliable income stream.

The complex consists of 49 well-maintained three-bedroom townhouses and delivers a body corporate salary of $125k, representing the entirety of the current net profit. This structure shields the business from letting fluctuations, while providing clear upside through expansion of the letting pool by attracting units currently with outside agents, self-managed owners, or in lock-up.

Caretaking requirements are light and easily managed by one or two people. There are no set office hours, and an office is included on title. Importantly, a top-up was approved at the September AGM, extending the agreements to a healthy 19 years, and providing excellent long-term security for the incoming operator.

Residents benefit from quality amenities including a large pool, barbecue areas, and a 17-berth marina with Broadwater access. The location also places Harbour Town Shopping Centre, cafes, restaurants, and public transport within walking distance, with easy motorway connectivity close by.

This opportunity is well-suited to experienced operators seeking a secure income base, as well as lifestyle buyers seeking a low-maintenance waterfront business with genuine growth potential.
