Here’s a question I’ve been asked more than any other since the Budget: “Are there any property investment strategies that actually pay their own way?”

Higher rates have drained the cashflow from most residential investments. Established properties are also losing key tax advantages from July 2027. Many investors now feel stuck, unsure which types of property investing will still work in a sea of uncertainty.

But one strategy still works, and arguably works better than before: brand new, purpose-built rooming houses.

Smart investors use them to fund a growing portfolio. The rooming houses produce strong cashflow that covers the shortfall on their growth assets, and they’ve delivered significant equity on completion.

On 28 October we’re hosting a live webinar where I’m joined by a specialist panel to show you exactly how it works, warts and all. We’d love you to join us to see how this works.

You’ll learn:

  • How fully furnished, individually rented rooms near hospitals, universities and transport can deliver net yields of 8% to 10%*
  • Why new builds keep negative gearing and the CGT discount under the new rules
  • How lenders value rooming houses on income, and how that can release equity to recycle into your next deal
  • The depreciation advantage of a brand new, fully furnished asset
  • How we target locations where a shortage of rental supply drives strong rental demand
  • A real case study: from vacant land to revaluation, with actual numbers
  • The risks, and who should not do this
  • Rich Harvey, Propertybuyer: 25 years and 5,500 purchases
  • Greg Willmott, buyer’s agent and rooming house investor
  • Dean Parker, YSH: rooming house management and development
  • Tom Johnson, Mortgage Choice: Class 1B finance specialist
  • Jeremy Iannuzzelli, Praedium Partners: accountant and podcast host

Your panel:

That’s strategy, finance, tax and management in one session. Usually you’d need five separate meetings (and five separate invoices) to get all of this.

Fair warning: this isn’t a get-rich-quick pitch. A rooming house is a 12 to 18 month project that rewards patience and punishes shortcuts. It’s designed for serious investors with the capacity to fund a total project of $1.2m to $1.9m.

If that sounds like you, you’ll get a lot out of this session.

Seats are capped so everyone can ask questions.

We look forward to seeing you online.
