Hi Everyone,
If you are feeling the winter cold (and I am, I’m sorry to say), I have a solution!
Every July, savvy Property Managers and Principals head north to the Surfers Paradise Marriott Resort on the Gold Coast for the PPM Groups TCE National Property Management Conference.
This is one of my favourite events of the year. The Marriott at Surfers Paradise is one of the best hotels I have stayed in (their staff can never do enough for you), its a beautiful resort hotel (which is child friendly) and just that bit warmer there than it is here in Sydney.
The other reason I really love this event is the atmosphere. Firstly, its a great learning environment, with some really high calibre speakers (this year Pat Mesiti, Fiona Blayney, Malcolm Riley, Kirsty Dunphey, Jo-Anne Oliveri and many more). The organised social events get everyone talking and networking really quickly; in the past couple of years I have made some great friends and contacts. In most cases you can approach the speakers who usually stay for the whole event so you can really take advantage of their expertise on chosen topics.
Three information packed, idea filled days is what you can look forward to. I’ve had a look through the program and there are some fantastic sessions. One that really interests me this year is on day three where Debbie Palmer will be presenting the results of their annual Property Management Survey. So if you want to get an idea on how your PM department compares to others across Australia, then this is not to be missed. I don’t know of anyone else who collects this type of detailed benchmarking information on the property management industry and it will definitely give you an insight as to how you operate vs. your competitors.
As always there will be some fantastic prizes on offer one being an overseas holiday. (We are giving away a WII and WII-fit!)
As long time friends of the PPM Group, Corum Real Estate Services are platinum sponsors of the event, and this year we have been offered a special promo code for our friends/customers who would like to attend. We have been given the opportunity to provide a discount $200 on the whole 3 days.
Click here for a full conference brochure. You can also register online on the PPM website by clicking here. The important thing to get your $200 discount on all three days is to quote the promo code CORUM9 when registering.
Now is not the time to hibernate. Re-energise your department, and come to Queensland. Remember, when the going gets tough... the tough keep marketing!!
Until next week!

How to Succeed at the Tribunal.....
20/04/09 15:35 Filed in: Training
Hi Everyone,
I thought things were supposed to slow down over Easter, but there is lots happening here at the moment!
Success at the Tribunal?
Have you ever wanted to get the “edge” at the Tribunal? Had a heap of questions but been afraid to ask?
Our own RTO Corum Training has joined forces with Think Real Estate to present an opportunity to spend time with Kathy Thane - a former full-time member of the NSW Consumer Trader & Tenancy Tribunal (CTTT). For more than 14 years Kathy has heard & determined cases across all 9 divisions of the CTTT. In these sessions, Kathy will give you some insight on how it is from the "other" side.
Don't miss this fantastic opportunity! Places have been limited to 1 person per office, and there are only three seminars across Sydney on the 5 May (Carlton), 14 May (Parramatta) and 20 May (Killara). 12 CPD points are available from these 4 hour sessions.
Click here to download a registration form and improve your chances of success when you next face the tribunal!
Product Update: Accepting Payments other than Rent
There will be some changes this week that will allow tenants to make payments other than rent through our web payment pages and via our customer care centre. This means that Tenants can pay other bills via their rent card - like rates, water or other charges. Your daily .PDF reports will change to include this information, but there will be no changes to .PAY file auto-receipting. Only rent payments will be automatically receipted as per usual, other payments will need to be receipted manually.
These changes will be implemented late on Sunday this week (ready to go live on Monday morning 27th April). There will be some detailed information distributed regarding these changes closer to the end of this week.
Win a Ticket to AREC 09!
In case you missed it, both Corum Training and Corum Real Estate Services are offering a chance to WIN A Free Ticket to AREC 09 worth $1190!
To enter the competiton for Corum Real Estate Services you need to be an existing client and tell us in 50 words or less what you like most about using our rent card services. Click here to enter.
