The passive freehold of Townsville’s only Quest-branded property is being marketed by ResortBrokers Nathan Eades via an expressions of interest campaign.
With a yearly rent of $1,495,000, Quest Townsville on Eyre is located only one block back from The Strand, Townsville’s beachfront promenade and main entertainment and dining precinct.

“The freehold of Quest Townsville on Eyre is an outstanding opportunity to own a blue-chip freehold that’s part of Australia’s most successful hotel franchise in a rapidly developing regional city,” says ResortBrokers’ Nathan Eades who is handling the sale with fellow broker Glen Cummins.
“We expect a great deal of interest in this offering,” adds ResortBrokers’ Managing Director, Trudy Crooks, Not only is this an exceptional asset but we’re seeing a huge amount of interest in regional accommodation assets in particular as investors chase higher returns than metropolitan areas. We’ve seen an influx of new money in regional accommodation assets in recent times from both small-scale and large-scale investors. Add to the fact that accommodation assets typically have higher yields overall compared to many other property/business types.”
