The home of yield and strategy.
What we offer

Rooming houses, dual occupancy and new build property.

This is what we specialise in: building high-yielding property.

Rooming Houses

Multiple income streams from one title, generally 8%+ gross yield. The highest yielding product we source in Brisbane.

Dual occupancy

One dwelling, two rents, through dual key or duplex configurations. A duplex can also be separately titled, effectively creating two distinct dwellings.

New build property

House and land packages, or buying the land and building on it, with the build coordinated from contract through to tenancy.

Why this works

But why?

Equity is manufactured, not waited for

This is a yield strategy, not a growth strategy. The yield is the return and growth is the bonus. Equity is manufactured through the construction process, and by selecting the highest quality land for capital growth potential.

New builds qualify for tax benefits

These are new builds, so they still qualify for negative gearing and the capital gains tax discount, which makes the holding position tax efficient while the rent carries the loan.

Yield that pays for itself

High-yielding property is designed to cover its own mortgage and holding costs. That means you are not topping up the investment from your salary each month. The rent does the heavy lifting, so your cash flow stays in your pocket.

High depreciation means larger tax returns

Rooming houses contain multiple kitchenettes, bathrooms and living spaces. That means more fixtures, fittings and plant and equipment to depreciate. For higher income earners, those deductions translate into a larger tax return, which improves the overall holding position.

Who we work with

Investors who want strategy, not guesswork.

Experienced investors who want a strategy-led approach, with the execution handled for them.

Seasoned investors

When your portfolio already consists of high capital growth, established assets, these high-yielding properties can balance out your portfolio and provide reliable cash flow.

High-income earners

High-income earners can do things differently to regular investors. Deploy capital into income-producing assets efficiently, without adding to your workload.

Business owners

Money working outside the business. Passive income that doesn't depend on it.

Those moving towards retirement

Higher-yielding property provides income that helps support your retirement, without relying on the market to perform.

How we formulate your strategy

What we need to know before we search.

Six inputs that shape every recommendation we make.

01. The money

We need to know how much capital you can deploy. This affects the purchase price and build cost we can work with. The more capital you have access to, the better the asset you can purchase. We also need to ensure there is a sufficient buffer.

02. Goals

Exit strategy, risk tolerance, and what is the purpose of the investment. Your goals define the strategy.

03. Cash flow

Debt structure, depreciation, how much the holding position is going to cost you, and the tax benefits. The numbers must work.

04. Hold timeframe

We formulate an exit strategy and work towards key dates where required. Timeframe changes the asset mix.

05. Current portfolio

Your experience level, current cash flow of portfolio, location of assets, and how we can get diversification into the portfolio.

06. Ownership structure

This gets decided with your accountant or financial planner. It must happen before we commence the search.

Common questions

What you're probably wondering.

Do I need to be an experienced investor?

You do need a level of capacity and willingness to understand the strategy. However, we educate as we go, in simple language, and we have done the research so you don't have to.

How much capital do I need?

For rooming houses, we generally suggest $400k+. For dual occupancy, $130k+. Or single house and land can be as little as $100k.

What are the fees?

Depending on the investment strategy, there is an engagement fee and a successful acquisition commission. We will guide you through what this looks like for your investment, full transparency, no surprises. Where we are not acquiring sites, we are generally paid by the builder, at no or minimal cost from you.

How long does a typical project take?

To find and secure your land, generally 4–12 weeks. Build time is generally 8–12 months. Allow additional time for more complex investments or purchasing untitled land. If your strategy involves a subdivision, the approval process can add significant time.

What kind of yields are you getting?

Rooming houses generally around 8% gross yield. Dual occupancy generally around 4.5% to 5% gross yield. House and land around 4% gross yield.

Where do you find these properties?

We are licensed in QLD. We source sites in Brisbane only. Partner packages are available across South East Queensland and Victoria.
