We always strive to achieve the highest rental return possible for our clients so they can better manage their cash flow, while investing for their future. Most of our clients have been achieving rental yields of 5% plus. Some of the areas achieving this outstanding result include Melbourne, Geelong, Ballarat and the Sunshine Coast. In January 2020 we surpassed all expectations with rental yields as high as 6.58% in the inner city suburb of Abbotsford (current median yield for Abbotsford is 4.70% units*) and a similar result for our clients who settled in Carnegie with rental yields of 5.84% (current median yield 3.4%, units*).

Both of these results are well above the Melbourne median rental yield of 3.7%.

How is this achievable you might ask?

We continually research markets to invest in across Australia. We pinpoint cities & suburbs, we look at the right regional cities where we believe there is opportunity for our clients. While most developers invest just enough to sell their properties off the plan, we only work with those who we believe are the best in their field. We research who they are, what and where they build, the design and aesthetics of the building internally and externally. We know that buying into one of their developments is an investment decision, but also you have to feel emotionally connected to the property. Because, more and more in today’s world,  tenants want what you want.  Your tenant is aspirational. They want all the bells and whistles, a place with quality finishes and to rent a property that feels as if it was their own.

So when you are thinking of investing, don’t settle for average.

If you are thinking about investing we would love to help you.

Quiet simply, the Palms is the place to buy!

The northern beaches of Cairns is the Nation's best location for property investors right now, and The Palms is the premier development in this boom region.

It has the best location being elevated and backing onto the rainforest. It will have amazing facilities with a shopping village, a primary school, parks and green open space, a water park and an expanse of wildlife corridors.

It has taken the developers three years to get planning approval for this unique development to be able to hit the market. There are only 300 lots spread across 85 acres of the best land in The Northern Beaches.  Residents will have an abundance of open space right at their doorstep.  The Palms is also the only Certified Enviro Development project in Far North Queensland.

Sydneysiders and Melburnians, put aside your equally outstanding flat whites for a moment. Stop bickering about whether great beaches beat cool laneways (they do) and desist from debating whether all baristas require waxed moustaches (ideally).

Because Brisbane is closing in on the title of Australia’s best city, and we must join forces to keep this subtropical upstart in its place.

Time  magazine recently named Brisvegas on its “World’s Greatest Places” list, and omitted our cities. It’s a huge shock (and who knew they still published Time  magazine?). But they might be onto something.

Time  points to the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games, which will be hosted in the maroon metropolis. Brisbane will do a fine job, even though it’ll baffle the world when rugby league is added to the schedule and Queensland is allowed to field its own team.

Time’s  most radical claim is that Brisbane is worth visiting now, but tourism is surging. Not only did Lin-Manuel Miranda recently drop in to catch Hamilton , but hundreds of Hamilfans flew up to watch his interview with Leigh Sales (presumably unaware that it would subsequently arrive on iView for free).

This small duplex development just a short drive from Hervey Bay on Queensland’s beautiful Fraser Coast, offers an incredible lifestyle at an affordable price. With unprecedented demand and very limited supply, prices look set to skyrocket.

A leading local agent has appraised each side of these duplex's to be worth $665k on completion and rent for $495 per week. So that is massive potentail instant equity of up to $390K on completion, which is incredibly hard to find.
