I actually before posting checked the rents in Broome and Port Headland - that was why I replyed 4 Houses in Port will get you 5 in Broome - I did not think but worked of fact!
Now do me just one favor list the perks with the costs ( I will allow your extra house numbers from your original - but do not believe them) to show the $500,000 extra you now claim.
My research would put it at around $100,000 pa over a 3 year budget average extra - give or take $50,000 - on Jandakot staff.
Is a simple request.
