Here it is, the perfect property in a perfect position, with a unique draw card for State, National and International Tourists who are keen to see a very shy and timid monotreme, the platypus.

And guess what, there is hardly a day in the year one cannot sit on the banks of Broken River, (which forms one of the three boundary lines of the property), and watch the platypus emerge from their river bank homes, and feed!

This is a property the new owner will be so proud to own it will be hard to think of it just as an investment. It will be more, much, much, more, and we believe it will suit so many buyer profiles, we are confident it will be sold in a reasonably short period of time.

You could very well be the proud new owner and to help you determine whether or not you should take your interest to the next level, we ask you to ask yourself the following questions:

1. Have you ever wanted to own your own resort?
2. Are you looking for a solid investment?
3. Would you like to be in the hospitality business?
4. Are you looking to invest your superannuation funds?
5. Would you like to live amongst rainforests?
6. Are you into Eco tourism?
7. Are you ready for a lifestyle change?
If you have answered yes to any of the above you should contact us for a more in-depth look at the solidarity of the offering, from both a business trading point of view and as an investment.

Opportunities such as this may come along only once in a lifetime and then, many are so expensive they are out of the reach of many of us.

How many opportunities are there to experience a pristine tropical rainforest location and yet be only a one hour drive from a major regional city, a city which is a gateway to one of the seven wonders of the world, `The Great Barrier Reef`.

And the best part of all is the price!
The asking price has been set in accordance with the valuation which has just been completed and is available upon request.
Unique:
This is a unique property in as much as it is bounded by Broken River to the south, the Eungella National Park to the west and the Eungella Dam Road the north and east. The Broken River platypus can be viewed from the grounds of the property.
Solid Investment:
This offering is for the business and the freehold, which includes 3 separate titles, one of which is the owner`s residence opposite the resort, a short 2 minutes walk away from the resort.
Unrepeatable:
In today`s world it is almost impossible to gain approvals for developments of this type which have such close proximity to such ecologically sensitive areas, and you can bet there would be such strong opposition to such a proposal today that the chances of reproduction of this facility would be remote.
Highly rated:
Recently, on the 8thJanuary 2010, the states` largest newspaper, the Brisbane Courier Mail, produced a list of the top 100 Queensland `must see attractions`, and Broken River was voted Number 21 in that list as the best place in Queensland to see platypus.
Growth:
The business can be grown by further developing the mid week trade which is currently well below the weekend occupancy percentage. There is a clear realistic process to be followed, which will tap into past clients and promote the conference facilities to a greater extent than currently being undertaken. This can be demonstrated by the lack of targeting done to date by identifying a mid week customer base.
Expansion:
income streams can be improved by adding additional rooms, in fact there is an unlimited Development Approval to add another 22 rooms (11 cabins) to the resort on land already owned, and feasibility projections have been done which show conservative growth will produce a fantastic return.

Community area

Equipment: There is sufficient equipment to maintain the buildings and the grounds and a full inventory is provided in the information memorandum which is available upon request.

Financials: The accounts have been professionally maintained by a firm of accountants and are current to within the last 3 months. The Profit & Loss statement verifies the viability of the business and projections take into account the current structure as well as forecasting the anticipated growth after the construction of the additional cabins.

Valuation: The asking price is substantiated by a valuation which has been conducted by JD Dodds Property Valuers of Mackay, a Company which is accredited by and on the valuation panel of most of the major financial institutions in Australia.

This valuation is absolutely pertinent to the property in today`s terms as it has just been undertaken and signed off in April 2010. This means that current economic conditions have been reflected in it`s compilation, obviously a comforting thought for any purchaser.
Here it is, the perfect property in a perfect position, with a unique draw card for State, National and International Tourists who are keen to see a very shy and timid monotreme, the platypus.
