04Are there different rules for hosted and unhosted Airbnbs?YES
HOSTED AIRBNB
Hosted STRA is development-approval exempt throughout Western Australia, but must still be registered.
UNHOSTED AIRBNB
In Perth metropolitan local governments, unhosted STRA can use a development-approval exemption for up to 90 non-consecutive nights in the registration year when the conditions are met. Development approval is required before operating above that threshold.
Outside Perth metropolitan local governments, including Peel, the local planning scheme determines the unhosted approval pathway.

NO — THE 90-NIGHT FIGURE IS NOT AN OPERATING CAP
Western Australia does not impose a statewide annual Airbnb letting cap.

- Operation above 90 nights can continue where the required approval is obtained
- No universal WA minimum number of nights per booking has been identified
- A council approval or endorsed management plan can impose property-specific stay conditions
SHIRE OF BROOKTON LEVEL

No published Shire of Brookton rule has been identified that imposes a universal Airbnb-specific minimum stay or annual booking-night cap on ordinary private residential properties. Property-specific approvals can still impose conditions.
Any minimum rental periods applying to council-owned accommodation, staff housing, campsites or other authority-provided accommodation are service conditions. They are not private Airbnb restrictions.

06Do I need Shire of Brookton approval or a DA?YES

A development-application fee applies when the property requires a DA, but it is not a universal fee charged to every Airbnb owner.

Payment plans
Pay your buyers agent fee monthly, not all at once
A buyers agent fee usually falls due at settlement, right when your deposit, stamp duty and loan costs land. We let you spread it. You start with a retainer from $1,000, which comes off your fee, then choose how to pay the rest.
- Pay at settlement
Nothing more until you buy. The balance is paid at settlement, with nothing added.
- 3 months, interest-free
Split the balance into three monthly payments, with no interest at any point.
- 12, 24 or 36 months
Smaller monthly payments. No interest while we search, and the first 3 months are interest-free. After you buy, 0.5% a month applies to what is still owing.
- Pay it off early, any time
Clear the balance whenever you like and the interest stops. You pay what is left of the fee.
- Worked out on the price you pay
Payments start on your estimated price. When you buy, the fee is worked out again on the actual price, and anything paid over is refunded.
- More of your savings for the deposit
Spreading the fee keeps more of your cash for the deposit and buying costs, which is where it counts.
Illustrative example: on a $750,000 purchase our fee is $12,000, GST included. After a $1,000 retainer you could pay the $11,000 balance at settlement, as $3,666.67 a month for 3 months with no interest, or from $458.33 a month on the 24-month plan.

I’ve bought two properties through Scott and both have been excellent buys. He found great value in strong locations, and the growth has been solid. Because of the results from those first two, I’m now in a position to buy another two investment properties and I’ll definitely be using Scott again.

Scott has been awesome throughout my journey. We bought our first investment property with Scott’s help and professional guidance. Would recommend him to any new buyers looking to kick start their investment portfolio.
