In this episode of RB Radio, host Frank and Alex are joined by special guest Sam Hodgetts, partner at McAdam Siemon Business Advisors. Together, they unpack the evolving challenges in Queensland’s accommodation sector, including the decline in high-density developments and the growing pressure of the housing shortage.

The conversation highlights why management rights are becoming more vital than ever and why every accommodation complex demands a hands-on, site-specific approach, not just a review of the numbers. Key insights include:

-Why high-density developments are slowing across Queensland

-The role of management rights in solving the housing shortage

-Why are no two complexes the same? Boots on the ground matter

-Common mistakes when relying solely on data to assess value

-Real-world lessons from experts in development, brokerage, and accounting
