I was looking for a property manager in QLD and really didn’t anyone there.
I looked at a range of Property Managers and it was such a hard decision to pick one I could trust. Chris was referred to me by a friend so after a few meetings, I decided that I would appoint him to manage my new investment property.
The process was very fluid and easy, I asked lots of questions and Chris came back to me with the answers.
Thank you Chris for being so professional and helping me look after this major lifetime purchase.
Can’t wait to reach out for your assistance in the future when I’m ready to buy another investment property.

The process was very fluid and easy
I have owned investment properties for 30 years in different states around Australia and have always had them managed by property managers. I can honestly say, hand on heart, that Pillar Property has provided the best service of all of them. First I met with Managing Director Chris White who always provided detailed information to help me make my decisions. Chris then handed me over to his property manager Rachael Brown and her attention to detail and careful management of my property is literally second to none. I highly recommend Pillar Property and I know that anyone that uses them will be as impressed as I am.

We have been working with Chris since 2004 and the team at Pillar Property manages our investment properties. As well as being fantastic property managers, they have also coordinated renovations which have provided us with a substantial increase in rent. Whilst we are working overseas, it’s imperative that we have someone looking after our properties that we can trust.
