Type
James needed a cash-flow positive investment property within 90 minutes of Sydney CBD, with strong capital growth fundamentals. We found him an off-market unit in Chatswood delivering 5.2% gross yield from day one.
The Challenge
James had a clear brief — strong rental yield, low vacancy risk, proximity to transport, and a price point under $900K. In a market where those properties are snapped up within days, buying through traditional search was proving impossible.
Our Approach
We leveraged our network of property managers and local selling agents in Chatswood to identify a motivated vendor looking for a quiet, fast sale. The property was in a boutique block directly above the Metro station — exactly James’s target profile.
The Result
The off-market acquisition came in $74,000 below what comparable units were selling for at auction. The property was tenanted within 11 days at $720/week, delivering a gross yield of 5.2% from settlement.
