We bought this block in Sorell for $582,000. The house mattered less than what it sat on: a land holding above 900sqm, in a suburb with room to move.

First we converted the existing property into a short term rental. That covered the holding costs and started generating income within the first year, while the asset sat in the market and grew. This is the part most investors skip. Development takes time, and a property that pays for itself while you wait for council is a very different proposition to one you are funding out of pocket.

At the same time, we lodged an application with council and secured approval for a second dwelling at the rear. Three bedrooms, two bathrooms, 130sqm. Once built, that dwelling is expected to be valued between $650,000 and $700,000, against a build cost of roughly $400,000 to $420,000. That manufactures equity for the investor and adds a second asset to the portfolio, a separately titled starter home on land they already owned.
