Kerri Southee knows the Whitsundays better than anyone, and she knows property management like the back of her hand.
The owner of Tropical Rentals Whitsunday – an independent, boutique property management agency – has over 20 years of expertise in the Queensland market, and she’s just getting started.
It’s been a quick rise with her at the helm as the friendly face of dedication at Tropical Rentals since its beginnings in 2019, consistently providing the best in personalised property management for residential and commercial investment properties.
Originally from Melbourne, the fully licensed Real Estate Agent knows the realm inside and out, with it all starting way back when she first moved to the region.
“I used to come up here to holiday, and I realised that was crazy; the holidays can be in cold, old Melbourne and I can live up here,” Kerri said.
“I have a Bachelor of Arts and a Degree in Hospitality Management, and I originally came up to work as a food and beverage manager. I ended up sailing with Chris Nichols – and it’s his fault for getting me into property!
“I was quickly at L J Hooker in the deep end. I fell in love with it pretty quickly.”
The years went by and Kerri eventually branched out on her own in 2019, and quickly garnered a reputation as the on-call, 365 days a year property manager she is today. Commitment to the finest, personal service and communication with honours has been her goal since day one – and it’s left her with roaring reviews.
“It all started with owners from my previous jobs asking me: can you start your own business? We don’t want to go to a big company,” Kerri said.
“That’s how it all started, being asked by people to not do everything through a faceless agency. To dedicate our time to our owners, our tenants.”
The mantra of Tropical Rentals: we are here to support you, to listen to your needs.
From start to finish holiday permanent or holiday property management, to concierge and in-house cleaning, Kerri and her wonderful team of dedicated professionals offer a different level of service; she’s made Tropical Rentals Whitsunday a catchall for property management – and she’s always happy for a chat.
