From “We’ll never afford property in Sydney” to owning 2 investments in QLD worth over $2M in just 12 months!

When this Sydney couple felt priced out of their local market, they didn’t give up - they reached out to me for guidance. Together, we developed a strategy to leverage their high incomes and cash position, with a focus on long-term capital growth in South East Queensland.

Fast forward a year, and instead of purchasing an expensive home in Sydney, they now own two high-performing investment properties in QLD. They continue to rent in an area where they want to live but cannot afford to buy, whilst growing their wealth through rentvesting.

This property we sourced, negotiated and secured off-market on their behalf, utilising a long-term capital appreciation strategy. It is a true “set-and-forget” investment with the added benefit of minor cosmetic renovation potential to boost rental appeal and value.
