Location Advantage
Mount Isa is recognised as the Mining Capital of North West Queensland, home to major operations such as Mount Isa Mines — one of the world’s largest underground mining complexes.

The region is a vital service hub supporting mining, energy, logistics, and government projects across north-western Queensland and the Northern Territory border regions.

Key Location Benefits:

- Constant demand from fly-in-fly-out (FIFO) and drive-in-drive-out (DIDO) workforce

- Limited supply of comparable quality accommodation

- Close proximity to local shops, airport, and industrial precincts

- Daily flights to Brisbane, Townsville, and Cairns

This sustained demand ensures consistent occupancy levels and low vacancy risk — a hallmark of long-term stability for investors.

Financial Performance
The complex has demonstrated solid year-on-year financial performance, driven by repeat business from corporate clients and long-term workforce contracts.
