Rooming Houses

Rooming House or also called...

Community Living /Co-Living Homes

3 Incredible Reasons To Become A Rooming House Investor:

• Yield & Capital Growth
• Strong Market Demand
• Amazing Passive Income

Critical to any property investment is the delivery of a return on that investment. Rooming houses are uniquely strong as a type of property investment. Not only do they offer a high yield, but also capital growth.

Rooming houses offer the opportunity to lease each lettable space separately legally. By doing this, high yields are achievable, and in some cases, 10% or better may be possible.

In Brisbane, this product allows up to 5 self-contained apartment-style studios to be leased out permanently, which is generally the highest and best use of a low-density residential block of land.

• Rents from this type of dwelling are far higher than letting a single house in the same location.
• There are no Body Corporate fees, and they have Huge depreciation due to the level of fixtures and fittings.
• Whilst each habitable space is self-contained, under rooming house legislation, there is a requirement for a common area that includes 1 shared laundry, kitchen, and living area, which allows the higher returns to be achieved.
• This does vary from council to council.

Now, this is not a new product. In fact, over 200 of these types of homes have been built across the Brisbane area, and we’re not even close to making a dent in the demand from young professional tenants for these self-contained studios.

Specialised Home Builds

NDIS/SDA Homes

SDA dwellings have special design requirements to meet the needs of people who have permanent and significant disabilities. All dwellings must be constructed to comply with the National Construction Code (NCC) and SDA requirements.

A typical home is normally 3 – 4 bedrooms, housing 2 – 3 people with a disability and 1 carer.

Different home designs are offered to suit tenants requirements, ranging from basic care to full spinal support designs.

SDA dwellings provide tenants with a place to live independently, whilst still receiving the daily care they require.

SDA Homes are broken into four design categories, all with individual specifications and requirements. Below are the four design categories and descriptions of how they are specifically designed to cater to the needs of the disabled tenant. 

• SIL - Supported Independent Living
• FA - Fully Accessible
• R - Robust
• HPS - High Physical Support

As SDA home builds have more requirements and approvals than a standard home, our team makes sure we get it right every time.
