The Short-term holiday rental market is a booming and lucrative side hustle for many in the stunning coastal towns of Inverloch, Cape Paterson and Venus Bay - just a short two-hour drive from Melbourne. We meet purchasers every week looking to buy into the Inverloch market and lifestyle without breaking the bank and to offset that purchase with regular short-term rental income while keeping the property free to use on their own preferred dates throughout the year.


We recently sat down with Inverloch's premier short-term rental experts "The Beach House People", founded by locals Tor Jacobson & Emma Williams to revolutionise the holiday rental market in Inverloch for a whole new generation of owners to create more memorable guest experiences. They helped us to highlight 5 awesome beach houses currently for sale that are just perfect for short-term holiday rentals and Airbnb to generate that extra bit of revenue.

In today's competitive property market across Bass Coast and South Gippsland, the difference between a seamless sale and a stressful, protracted negotiation often comes down to preparation. One of the most powerful yet underutilized tools in a local seller's arsenal is a pre-listing building and pest inspection. Far from being an optional extra, this seemingly small investment can dramatically transform your selling experience in our coastal and rural communities. Let me be absolutely clear: listing your property without a building and pest report in Australia's current market climate isn't just risky—it's financial madness.
