Investing in property can be a powerful way to grow your wealth and generate passive income. With Melbourne’s strong housing demand and a stable economy, now is a great time to take advantage of the market. At Senka Homes, we help investors make informed decisions, ensuring they secure high-quality builds that deliver strong returns.
If you’re thinking about buying an investment property, here are some key factors to consider.
Do Your Research
A successful investment starts with thorough research. Consider these crucial elements before making a decision:
Financials:
Assess your budget, factoring in additional costs such as stamp duty, council rates, land tax, maintenance, and property management fees.
Location:
High-growth suburbs with strong rental demand offer the best potential returns. Look for areas with good transport links, retail hubs, schools, and future infrastructure projects.
Property Type:
Understand the needs of your target market. A well-designed home with a functional layout and modern features will attract quality tenants.
Market Conditions:
Stay informed on property trends, interest rates, and government incentives that may benefit investors. Keeping up to date with market conditions allows you to make strategic decisions, take advantage of tax benefits, and maximise your return on investment. Engaging with industry experts and financial advisors can also help you stay ahead of changes that may impact your investment strategy.
Why Building New is a Smart Investment
Building a new home offers significant advantages over purchasing an existing property:
Stamp Duty Savings:
In Victoria, stamp duty only applies to the land portion of a new build, reducing upfront costs.
Minimal Maintenance:
A brand-new home requires less upkeep compared to an older property that may need costly renovations or repairs.
Energy Efficiency:
New builds include modern insulation, double glazing, and efficient appliances, creating a comfortable living environment while lowering energy costs. These energy-efficient features not only reduce utility bills but also make the property more attractive to tenants who prioritise sustainability and long-term savings.
Higher Rental Returns:
Contemporary designs with stylish finishes are more attractive to tenants, often commanding premium rental rates. Features like stone benchtops, quality appliances, and modern lighting can set your property apart, making it more desirable and helping to secure long-term tenants.
Stronger Longevity:
Built with the latest materials and construction standards, a new home will remain in top condition for years to come, reducing maintenance costs and providing long-term durability. Modern building techniques also improve energy efficiency, ensuring lower utility bills and greater appeal to tenants looking for sustainable living options.
