This Metro Perth property, acquired in early 2024, is a perfect example of how the right strategy can create exceptional results in a short period. Many assume that high-growth properties were purchased years ago, but that’s not the case. We’re sharing this now, six to eight months later, to show how strategic acquisitions perform over time. In just under a year, this property’s value has surged by 37%, adding nearly $185K in equity—a testament to the power of smart investing. 

The clients behind this success story were a family of four looking to start their investment journey. Initially, they were considering a $1M purchase in Sydney, but the numbers didn’t stack up—it would have been significantly negatively geared, restricting their ability to scale. Instead, we structured a strategy focused on capturing capital growth first, laying the foundation to later transition into high-cash-flow investments and small-scale developments. 

With this shift in mindset, they secured three properties within a year, each serving a distinct purpose in their portfolio. Property one, featured here, delivered remarkable appreciation. Property two followed with equally strong performance, while property three introduced them to development and renovation opportunities, ultimately allowing them to transition into full-time property investing. 

This $500K acquisition wasn’t just about immediate returns—it was a long-term wealth-building play. The 809 sqm block came with development potential, with options to add a granny flat or build a three-unit dwelling. On the rental front, the property was initially leased at $470 per week, but upon renewal, we pushed the rent up to $585 per week, lifting the yield to 6.08%—enhancing both short-term cash flow and long-term growth prospects. 

The location further strengthened its appeal, positioned within walking distance to a playground, library, Christian schools, and local shops, while maintaining easy access to the city just 20 minutes away. 

Beyond the property itself, the market fundamentals spoke volumes. The demand-supply ratio of 57 indicated significantly higher demand than available supply, creating the conditions for rapid price appreciation. The days on market dropped from 66 to under 21, showing that properties were selling at an accelerated pace. The stock on market was critically low at just 0.15%, reinforcing the scarcity factor that drives capital growth. Additionally, the 26% renter proportion and sub-0.15% vacancy rate demonstrated high rental demand, ensuring consistent tenant occupancy and strong rental performance. 

This wasn’t just about purchasing a property—it was about executing a strategic investment roadmap that set these clients up for long-term success. By prioritizing growth first, they maximized their ability to reinvest, scale, and transition into a business of property investing. What started as an investment journey has now become a full-time pursuit, allowing them to step away from traditional employment and build a life of financial freedom. 

If you’re a serious investor looking to make informed, high-growth property moves, let’s connect and craft your own success story. Until the next acquisition—peace out!
