This was a quality asset from the outset. Four bedrooms, two bathrooms, water views, purchased at $815,000. The kind of property that performs on its own merits before you do anything to it.

We converted the unused rear garage into a separate one bedroom granny flat. The property now sleeps twelve, eight in the main house and four in the flat. We list it three ways: the whole property, the main house alone, and the granny flat alone. That flexibility captures bookings across group sizes rather than competing for one segment. Revenue now sits at $140,000 a year. The granny flat lifted the property's value by around 15%, with the asset now valued at $1 million and returning a 14% gross yield.
