Located just 200 metres from the University Campus, this property is ideally suited to the astute investor or large family. Packed with features, as well as future opportunities, this is one not to be missed.
For the investor, the University is a huge drawcard for tenants. If you don’t know the area well, the lack of nearby parking ensures tenants will pay a premium to be able to walk from home to classes. And with less than a two-minute stroll, it doesn’t get closer than this!
With nearby rooms rented out in the vicinity $140 - 180 p/week per room, there is scope to see a $850 gross return each week. With a little more capital, you could utilise the large flat yard to add a 2 or 3 bedroom granny flat to further boost returns (STCA). The going rate for these has been $350 - $380 per week depending on the quality of the fixtures and fittings. Rent them by the room and the return will be stronger still.
Why have your spare funds sitting in the bank earning little to no interest when you can potentially get a 6-8% yield?
For large family’s looking to relocate, this home is also something to consider. With plenty of room inside and out, not to mention the sun-drenched pool and half tennis court, this will be loved by the whole family. If you outgrow the property in the future it will remain a premium asset to hold onto and rent out for many years to come.
