I can't give you any direct suggestions on where to purchase in Vic but wanted to say CONGRATULATIONS.
Great savings and existing portfolio, doing well so far!
It's in everyone's best interest to ask for exactly what they want in life in general.

they should be providing you with comparative market analysis for each renewal they are recommending.
If they are not - then you can just send a one line email.
Please renew at $390 pw. End of story!!
If you know they are lazy then your instructions need to be more proactive.
