Hi Everyone,
Happy new year to you all.
I am an independent agent in Brisbane, Springfield lakes. I am currently looking for an investor to purchase a brand new two story property that i have found for my client who is willing to rent it direct for $410pw….The property details can be found on realestate.com.au
Property No. 103714010To save you time the property is priced at $359K. But you will need to put in a couple of air cons as this is a requirement of the new tenant.
Cheers
And thank you
Hi myabode,
Just so that I understand this, is your client and the vendor one and the same party?
If not, is your client looking at “rent to buy” option?
Regards

Hi Ray,
I thought you said a good return?? That rental return on this property is only 5.94% plus I would need to come up with 5% closing costs and it already needs work.
Sorry, but it doesn’t sound all that great to me. I can get 6.25% interest for leaving my money in the bank at the moment with no hassle.
Thanks anyway
Dare to Dream,
Could you please show me how you came up with those figures.
thanks[inlove]
dare_to_dream, a 6% yield is not a bad return, of course depending on where the property is, growth prospects. I assume that your calculations are not including growth prospects, tax breaks, etc, with that factored in, this property may pose a great opportunity to some investors.
That being said, its not my cup of tea, but I know many investors in Melbourne who would be pleased to get 6% yields. Obviously not enough for you (or me), but I’m sure there will be investors out there to whom that appeals.
Barbara,
Yield is essentially calculated by the following formula:((Weekly rent * 52) / Purchase Price) * 100
So for the above property
((410 *52) / 359,000)*100 = 5.9837 OR 5.94 rounded up.
Cheers
Dave.

d_robb21,
your post brings up an interesting observation; like you, to me a return of 6% (when the interest rates are over 7%) is no good, but to some it is. I guess the more experienced and knowledgeable you become, the more you can see a good deal or bad deal.
I don’t subscribe to the view of a certain % return is good “considering the market”.
A return is a return is a return, and the state of the market doesn’t factor into the equation in my book.
If the current interest rate is x%, then to me, the return has to be at least 1% or more to be considered a decent return, notwithstanding any cap growth or tax breaks.
That’s what I love about this forum – knowledgeable people sharing their experience and knowledge with the not so, and hopefully steering them away from bad deals towards good deals.Cheers,
Marc.
