Villas & Units Information Pack
Why Villas & Units

Smaller deposit. Same growth markets.

Villas and boutique units in the $200,000 to $550,000 range. Smaller deposit, smaller loan, same suburbs we'd pick for any client.

01/Lower entry, faster start
$200k
entry tier

Get into a strong market with a deposit you actually have.

Villas and units in this range mean smaller deposits, smaller loans, and earlier entry. You don't have to wait three years to save another $50k before you start compounding.

02/Cash flow that doesn't squeeze you
5–7%
gross yield

Lower repayments. Better servicing. Easier to hold long term.

Smaller loan, lower repayments, less holding pressure. You can keep the property through cycles without it eating into your lifestyle, and your serviceability stays intact for the next purchase.

03/Start years sooner
$50k
min to start

A smaller deposit, a real foothold in the market.

From around $50k all-in you can cover a standard $200k unit on a 10% deposit, including all fees. You enter strong markets earlier, with capital you actually have, and start compounding sooner instead of betting everything on one large purchase later.

The fastest entry point into our system. Same strategy team. Same process. Smaller cheque to start.

Where & What We Buy
The Strategy

Where do we buy, and what do we buy.

Same two questions, same answer process. Smaller price point doesn't mean weaker selection.

01 / Where do we buy?

All across Australia.

There are thousands of markets in this country and they're all moving at different speeds, in different directions, at any given time.

Different markets work for different goals. Some are best for rental yield. Some are best for capital growth. Some suit houses on big land. Some suit villas, units, or townhouses on a body corp.

Our job is to understand what you are actually trying to achieve first. Then take you to the market that delivers it. Not the other way around.

1,000s ACTIVE MARKETS
Australia · all states & territories Thousands of active markets
02 / What do we buy?

Established stock only.

Established villas, units, townhouses, and duplex halves. Anything sitting on a body corp. We don't touch new builds or off-the-plan. They're inconsistent, prone to supply dumps, and rarely deliver the same growth as quality established assets. Sticking to established stock lets us go to markets that are already strong performers, in supply-constrained pockets where rental demand is consistent.

01 / Boutique villas

Boutique villas

Small-complex, freestanding feel.

02 / Established units

03 / Townhouses

Why Villas & Units Works
The Mechanics

Four reasons this entry tier outperforms what you'd expect.

Smaller doesn't mean weaker. Different price tier, same data, same scrutiny. Here's why the maths works in your favour.

01

Lower entry price, smaller deposit, market access.

Units and villas in this range let you enter strong markets with a smaller deposit and loan. That improves accessibility, reduces overall risk exposure, and gets you into the market years earlier than waiting to afford houses.

02

Lower repayments mean less holding pressure.

Lower price means lower repayments. That reduces holding pressure, improves your borrowing capacity for the next purchase, and makes long-term holding sustainable without depending on rapid growth.

03

Strong rental demand in established areas.

Well-selected villas and boutique units in supply-constrained suburbs see consistent tenant demand. Established locations with limited new supply mean stable rent and lower vacancy than apartment towers.

04

Scalable portfolio construction.

Smaller assets let you diversify across markets sooner. Instead of putting everything into one expensive property, you build a portfolio across multiple suburbs. Lower concentration risk, more compounding paths.

The bottom line

Income, accessibility, and a scalable path.

Four structural advantages most first-time investors miss. Lower price, faster entry, easier holding, smarter portfolio mechanics.

Where & What We Buy
The Strategy

Where do we buy, and what do we buy.

Same selection discipline as every FSA purchase. One extra requirement: the block has to earn a second dwelling.

01 / Where do we buy?

All across Australia.

There are thousands of markets in this country and they're all moving at different speeds, in different directions, at any given time.

Different markets work for different goals. Some are best for rental yield. Some are best for capital growth. For this strategy we need both: a high-growth market and a block that supports a second dwelling at the rear.

Our job is to understand what you are actually trying to achieve first. Then take you to the market that delivers it. Not the other way around.

02 / What do we buy?

An established house with room for a second dwelling.

An established house on a large block in a high-growth market, with enough room at the rear to add a granny flat. Approval for the granny flat is confirmed before the property is ever recommended to you. The build is funded separately through your broker, so our fee stays the same and the numbers stay clean.

Why House + Granny Flat Works
The Mechanics

Four reasons this strategy pays for itself.

We ran this on our own portfolio before we ever offered it to a client. Here's why the numbers work.

01

Two rents, one mortgage.

Once the granny flat is complete, rent from the main house plus rent from the second dwelling covers the full mortgage repayment. Zero out of pocket each month. Your lifestyle doesn't fund the property. The property funds itself.

02

Your borrowing stays alive.

Because the property costs you nothing to hold, your serviceability stays intact. Structured correctly, that protects your borrowing power so you can go again and buy the next asset instead of being parked for years.

03

The growth engine stays intact.

You're still buying a house with a big land component in a high-growth market. The second dwelling adds income without giving up the thing that drives long-term growth: land.

04

Tested on our own portfolio first.

We built granny flats on our own properties before offering this to clients. Around $500 a week in extra rent from a $250k build. We were the test dummies, so you don't have to be.

The bottom line

Cashflow neutral. Growth intact. Still scaling.

Wealth through property without your lifestyle carrying the cost, and without giving up the next purchase.

Where & What We Buy
The Strategy

Where do we buy, and what do we buy.

Same selection discipline as every FSA purchase. The difference here is scale: every asset has at least three incomes attached.

01 / Where do we buy?

All across Australia.

There are thousands of markets in this country and they're all moving at different speeds, in different directions, at any given time.

Different markets work for different goals. Some are best for rental yield. Some are best for capital growth. Multi-dwelling assets need markets with deep rental demand, where three or more tenancies on one block stay full.

Our job is to understand what you are actually trying to achieve first. Then take you to the market that delivers it. Not the other way around.

1,000s ACTIVE MARKETS
Australia · all states & territories Thousands of active markets
02 / What do we buy?

Three doors minimum. Established only.

Triplexes, 4-plexes and small blocks of units, always with a minimum of three doors under one title, always established stock. Where it adds value, we coordinate a full renovation across every dwelling to lift rents and manufacture equity: $20k to $30k per unit, funded by you, run by us.

Why Multi-Dwelling Works
The Mechanics

Four reasons this is our highest leverage strategy.

Maximum income from a single asset, and honest answers on why it carries one guarantee instead of three.

01

Three rents against one mortgage.

Say each door rents for $400 a week. That's $1,200 a week coming in against a single repayment, one loan and one set of purchase costs. The asset holds itself up and pays you from the first week.

02

Under-rented on purchase is the upside.

A large share of the multi-dwelling assets we buy are under-rented at the time of purchase. That's great buying: we secure the asset cheaper, and as each lease runs out the rent moves up to market. Built-in upside from day one.

03

One renovation program, staged door by door.

Kitchens, bathrooms, flooring, paint. We stage the works one dwelling at a time, so the other doors keep paying rent while each one gets its uplift and re-lets at the new market rate.

04

Why this one carries a single guarantee.

With three or more tenancies turning over in the first year, promising "cashflow neutral in 12 months" or "every door rented in 30 days" would force us to skip the best buys, especially under-rented ones. So this strategy carries one guarantee: 7 days to walk away after we present your first property.

The bottom line

Maximum income from a single purchase.

The highest leverage strategy FSA offers, from both a cashflow and a growth perspective, when it's done correctly.

01
Step 01

Complimentary Strategy Session

A free consultation. We discuss your investment goals and outline a tailored strategy to confirm we're the right fit.

02
Step 02

Agreement & Guarantees

If we're aligned, we send the agreement covering services, fees, and the guarantees that protect you.

03
Step 03

Meet the Team & Game Plan

You meet the team. We build your detailed game plan: target markets, strategy, criteria, and hold horizon.

04
Step 04

The Search

We source triplexes, 4-plexes and blocks of units that fit your criteria, on and off-market. Minimum three doors, established stock only. The best of these rarely hit a listing portal.

05
Step 05

Presenting & Reports

When a property ticks every box, we present it with full data: comparable sales, per-door rental projections, current versus market rents, renovation scope if there is one, and a finance guide.

06
Step 06

Negotiations & Going Under Contract

We negotiate using our reports as leverage. Once under contract: we book your pest and building inspection, manage any contract changes, send signed contracts and rental appraisals to your broker, and introduce you to a conveyancer and property managers.

07
Step 07

Settlement, Renovation & Aftercare

Final inspection, settlement, tenant placement. If you've taken the renovation option, we coordinate it across every dwelling. Post-settlement: ongoing rent reviews, regular portfolio check-ins, and support as your portfolio grows.

2x Emerald

For portfolio builders · Two assets, paid as one
$40,000
incl. GST · two assets
Includes
  • Everything in Emerald, across two acquisitions
  • Sequenced acquisition plan (12 months)
  • Cross-collateralisation review
  • Two settlements, fully managed
What you need for this strategy
$315k+ cash or equity

That covers the 20% deposit, stamp duty and fees on a multi-dwelling asset. Allow another $80k to $120k if you take the full renovation across all dwellings. You'll also need borrowing capacity of at least $900k.

7-day try before you buy guarantee

From the time we present your first property, you have 7 days to walk away with your full deposit refunded. No questions asked. It's the one guarantee on this strategy, and that's deliberate: we won't skip the best multi-dwelling buys, under-rented assets especially, just to protect a marketing promise.

How payment works
$7,500 deposit to start

You don't pay the full fee upfront. A $7,500 deposit gets us moving and sourcing immediately. The balance is paid only when we go under contract on your property, not at settlement. So if Emerald is $22,500, that's $7,500 to start and $15,000 when we go under contract.

Commercial Information Pack
Why Commercial

6 to 8% net. Tenant pays the bills. Locked in for years.

Commercial property is what residential investors graduate to when they want their portfolio to actually pay them back.

01/Income that pays you back
6–8%
net yield

Net yields 2 to 3 times residential, after all costs.

Quality industrial, medical, and daycare assets routinely return 6 to 8% net to the owner. Not gross. Net. Residential investors are lucky to see 3% gross before holding costs.

02/Lease security
1–10
year leases

1 to 10 year leases with built-in rent increases.

Commercial leases are legal contracts, typically locked in for 1 to 10 years with annual CPI or fixed percentage increases. Vacancy becomes a once-a-decade event, not an annual coin flip.

03/Tenant-funded outgoings
NET
lease

Council rates, insurance, maintenance. Tenant pays.

In most commercial leases (called net leases) the tenant covers the outgoings. Your headline yield is genuinely close to your net yield. It's a structural advantage residential investors simply do not have.

The asset class super funds, REITs, and family offices have been quietly buying for a decade. Now sized for individual investors.

What We Buy
The Strategy

Where do we buy, and what do we buy.

The two questions that decide everything. We buy anywhere in Australia, in the asset classes the smart money is already loading into.

01 / Where do we buy?

All across Australia.

There are thousands of markets in this country and they're all moving at different speeds, in different directions, at any given time.

Different markets work for different goals. Some are best for rental yield. Some are best for capital growth. Some suit commercial. Some suit houses on big land. Some suit villas or units.

Our job is to understand what you are actually trying to achieve first. Then take you to the market that delivers it. Not the other way around.

1,000s ACTIVE MARKETS
Australia · all states & territories Thousands of active markets
02 / What do we buy?

Income-producing assets with strong tenants.

We focus on commercial assets with long lease terms. The four categories below cover the bulk of what we source. We don't touch off-the-plan, speculative developments, or anything without a real income story.

01 / Industrial & Logistics

Industrial

Warehouses, logistics, light manufacturing.

02 / Healthcare

Medical & Healthcare

Clinics, day surgeries, allied health.

03 / Childcare

Childcare & Daycare

Long leases, government-subsidised.

04 / Specialist

Specialist Commercial

Storage, service stations, retail.

Why Commercial Works
The Mechanics

Four structural reasons commercial outperforms.

These aren't strategy preferences or our opinion. They're features built into the asset class. The reason institutional money has been quietly loading up on commercial for a decade.

01

Superior income efficiency

Commercial assets typically deliver 6 to 8%+ net yields depending on asset class and location. This stronger income profile improves serviceability, reduces holding risk, and lets portfolios scale faster without relying on speculative capital growth.

02

Income secured by leases, not tenants

Commercial property income is governed by legally binding leases, often 1 to 10 years with fixed annual increases or CPI-linked reviews. This creates predictable cash flow, lower vacancy volatility, and far greater income certainty than residential where leases reset every 6 to 12 months.

03

Tenant-funded cost structure

In most commercial assets, tenants pay the majority of outgoings including council rates, insurance, and maintenance. This shifts inflation risk away from the investor and protects net income during periods of rising costs. A structural advantage residential investors simply do not have.

04

Value driven by income, not emotion

Commercial property values are determined by income, not owner-occupier demand. This lets investors actively manufacture growth through rent increases, lease restructuring, and improved tenant quality. Capital growth becomes a controllable outcome rather than a passive hope.

The bottom line

Income, certainty, and a controllable growth lever.

Four structural advantages residential will never give you. Stack them and the asset class explains itself.
