A Truly Exceptional Property Manager – Above and Beyond in Every Way I cannot speak highly enough of Cavell Cooper. He has been an absolute godsend for us. Cavell took over management of my two properties after more than five years of neglect and mismanagement from the previous agency. What he inherited was nothing short of a disaster properties in disrepair, books in disarray, and a long trail of issues that would have driven most people to give up. From day one, Cavell guided my partner and I through the transition with professionalism, empathy, and genuine care. He helped us clean up years of mismanagement and set everything back on track. Without his help and support, I honestly think I would have sold the properties just to escape the mess. Cavell isn’t just a property manager he’s a trusted advisor and a true professional. Living more than four hours away, I have complete confidence in his ability to manage and care for my properties as if they were his own. He’s incredibly competent, reliable, and an all-around great bloke. His communication is exceptional he never hesitates to respond, and when urgent matters arise, he’ll drop everything to ensure they’re handled immediately. Cavell’s knowledge and problem-solving skills are outstanding. His ability to quickly assess and resolve complex issues reflects years of experience and deep industry insight. Whenever a problem arises, he is prompt, efficient, and always gets results. What truly sets Cavell apart is his integrity and transparency. His passion for delivering excellent service is a credit to the industry, and his use of modern software ensures every transaction and aspect of his management is open and transparent to both owners and tenants alike. That was just the first six months of working with him. Now, a year later, we’ve faced even more challenges with our complex including criminal activity at one of our premises and once again, Cavell has gone above and beyond. On multiple occasions, he has dropped everything to make our urgent matters his top priority, ensuring both myself as the owner and the tenants are properly looked after. He strikes the perfect balance between supporting the tenant and protecting the owner’s interests, something very few managers do so well. Cavell’s dedication, professionalism, and compassion are unmatched. Knowing he is managing my properties gives me complete peace of mind even from hundreds of kilometres away, I know everything is in good hands. I couldn’t recommend him more highly he’s an absolute asset to anyone lucky enough to have him manage their property.Posted on ELMO R.B.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wombat realestate are absolutely amazing. Cavell is so helpful and awesome to deal with. Can’t be happier. Thanks to the team for everything they’ve donePosted on Charlotte PatuTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From the very start of viewing the rental property, we came across Cavell Cooper who was extremely insightful and friendly. He took the time to explain what still needed to be done to the property before it would be ready for rent and even took a moment to compliment my daughter on the sparkles she had on her face, which made us feel very welcome. Cevall is a top notch professional property manager who clearly knows his stuff and I would recommend him to anyone. His young offsider on the day was also very welcoming, helpful and professional. Overall an excellent experience. Paul and CharlottePosted on Shelby CrundwellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From our very first meeting, Cavell was professional, friendly, and incredibly helpful. The Wombat Team made our first rental experience so smooth and stress-free. Everyone have been thorough, responsive, and clear in all communication, ensuring everything was handled efficiently. We truly appreciate all the effort in making the whole process so seamless – highly recommend! - Shelby & Harrison
FAQs
Quick answers to your biggest property management questions.
What makes Wombat Real Estate different from other agents?
At Wombat Real Estate, we’re not just managing properties, we’re looking after your investment as if it were our own burrow. We focus on exceptional property management, clear and timely communication, and genuine care for both owners and tenants.
Unlike many bigger agencies, our Principal, Cavell Cooper, is actively working with our clients and our team of exceptional property managers. There’s no passing the buck. We’re hands-on, proactive, and always on the ground. We combine local market knowledge with strong relationships with trusted tradespeople to keep your property in top condition and performing at its best.
With us, you get more than just routine inspections and rent collection. You get a partner who protects your investment, maximises returns, and keeps everything running smoothly, so you can enjoy peace of mind and a stress-free experience.
How quickly can Wombat take over management of my property from another agent?
Once our management agreement is signed, we’ll reach out to your current property manager and start the transfer process. If they’re on board, we can often have your investment safely tucked into our burrow in just a few days.
That said, Queensland law and most management agreements require a 30-day notice period. This ensures a smooth handover, keeps your tenants happy, and gives everyone time to get things in order. We handle all the details, so your property is well cared for from the moment it joins the Wombat burrow.
What suburbs does Wombat Real Estate service?
From our Bowen Hills HQ, we look after properties across Brisbane, basically anywhere from Logan to Newport and everywhere in between. Our core service area is within 25 km of the office, but we’ve had great success further afield too.
Some of the suburbs we frequently manage properties in include Arana Hills, Fortitude Valley, Bowen Hills, South Brisbane, West End, Brisbane City, Ashgrove, Stafford, Stafford Heights, Everton Park, Clontarf, Mango Hill, Camp Hill, and Coorparoo.
If your suburb isn’t listed, don’t worry, there’s a good chance we already manage a property there, and we’d love to look after yours too.
Do you help with legal compliance and QCAT issues?
Yes. At Wombat Real Estate, we always manage properties with the end in mind. Every action we take follows a clear process and is fully documented to ensure your investment is protected.
We ensure full compliance with Queensland rental laws and proactively manage any issues to prevent disputes. If tribunal action at QCAT is required, we represent you professionally and efficiently, with all the preparation, evidence, and documentation in place to support your case.
With us, you’re not just covered. We’re actively working to minimise risks and safeguard your investment, so you can enjoy peace of mind.
Can I access my information online?
Yes. With our 24/7 Owner Portal and our Owner and Tenant App, you have real-time access to everything about your investment burrow. Check rent payments, maintenance requests, and lease updates anytime, anywhere, so you’re always in the loop.
How many properties do you manage?
As a boutique property management agency, we deliberately keep our portfolio small, with around 75 properties per property manager. This allows us to provide hands-on, proactive management and exceptional support for every investment burrow.
For context, a typical property manager in Brisbane often looks after 150 to 250 properties, which can make it difficult to provide the same level of personalised service and attention to detail. At Wombat Real Estate, your property never gets lost in the crowd.
