New Farm questions
Airbnb management in New Farm, answered.
What does Airbnb management cost in New Farm?
The same as everywhere Lane Property manages: 18% + GST of accommodation revenue, or 15% + GST each when you have two or more properties with us. There is a $500 one-off setup fee. Cleaning is paid by the guest, not you, and there is no lock-in.
How much does a New Farm apartment earn on Airbnb?
Our forecasts for New Farm, Teneriffe, Newstead and Fortitude Valley put one-bedroom apartments at $850 to $1,000 a week and two-bedrooms at $1,200 to $1,350, after our fee, cleaning and platform fees. Your free forecast uses your address and building.
Do I need a permit to Airbnb my New Farm apartment?
No. Brisbane City Council paused its short-stay permit scheme on 12 May 2026, and there is no cap on nights. Check your body corporate by-laws and, for some homes, City Plan zoning. We go through both with you before you list.
My building has short-stay by-laws. Can I still list?
Often, yes. We read your by-laws and talk to your body corporate manager before anything goes live, and if your building is not a fit we tell you straight.
Do you cover Teneriffe, Newstead and Fortitude Valley?
Yes. All four are a short walk or ferry ride from our James Street office, and we also cover Bowen Hills and Kangaroo Point.
Can I still stay in my New Farm apartment?
Yes. Block dates in your owner portal whenever you want them. Plenty of our inner-city owners use theirs for a city weekend.
Do you manage long-term rentals in New Farm?
No. Lane Property only manages short-stay and Airbnb properties. For a standard lease, a local letting agent is the better fit.
