Many holiday rental units in QLD have seemingly high BC fees for ordinary units (I am not implying they are cheaper in other states).
Say $8k (not including council rates) on say $350k asking prices.
Many of the blocks (or 'estates') look in very average repair.
When I ask "where has the money gone over the last ?? years" the reply is something like "show us you're a real buyer and your solicitor can ask for the books".
I got similar responses from properties at both ends of the $ spectrum.
Anyone have experience in finding out where the money has gone *before* getting real serious about the purchase.
eg I received the followingfrom an agent when inquiring about a flash villa.

As part of your due diligence your Solicitor should research that type of query with the Body Corporate.
However, no Body Corporate is going to provide information unless they know the prospect already has a Contract under his nose ready to sign should he be satisfied with his due diligence. They are not going to provide information to anybody who is simply expressing an interest.
