Since joining the new home industry in 2020, I have observed how the growing rental crisis in Perth has created a unique “build2rent” opportunity. Having personal involvement in growing build to rent projects of my own across Perth enables me to share with a potential investor my reasoning for building. You get to directly benefit from the knowledge I have gained from actual building experience, not just sales talk suggesting what you should do! Working exclusively with Commodore Homes who are a subsidiary of Western Australia’s largest residential builder, the BGC Housing Group, we have five unique home designs called the “Investwise” range, specifically designed for the rental market. Whilst I am personally involved in build to rent, I enjoy assisting those whom are keen to develop their own investment properties. The establishment of www.build2rent.org is to create a destination for those who would like to know more information about this emerging market. There is a genuine opportunity to capitalise on a rising market with quality built investment homes. Whilst I am a huge fan of apartment living, it is how I have personally lived for the past 25 years, I do not believe apartments represents great value from an investment perspective when compared to homes. A home is the true Australian way of living, it provides a sense of permanence, and from an investment perspective a home rents for more, a home appreciates more, and tenants remain for a significantly longer period of time With the Perth rental market experiencing unprecedented demand, there remains opportunities to build a home to rent with strong return on equity that will present long term value to an investor - reach out for a confidential discussion
