How we find and secure the property
- 01Search
We search on market, off market and pre-market. 73% of the properties we buy are secured off market.
- 02Assess
Each property is scored on 24 metrics covering the market, street, building, price and risk. Most fail.
- 03Inspect
Shortlisted properties are inspected, with independent building, pest and strata reports.
- 04Recommend
You get a written recommendation: why it fits, what could go wrong, and our walk-away price.
- 05Negotiate and settle
We negotiate the price and terms, and manage the purchase through to settlement.
What we buy
| Property type | Often suits | What we check closely |
|---|---|---|
| Houses | Long-term growth, land value | Land size, zoning, flood and bushfire overlays |
| Townhouses | Balance of growth and yield | Strata records, land share, build quality |
| Units | Yield and lower entry price | Strata finances, special levies, building defects |
| New builds | Tax treatment under the 2026 rules | Builder, land value, price against established stock |
General guide only. The right type depends on your plan and the market.
If we ever present a property or build contract from a related party, such as Langford Homes, we disclose it in writing first. It must pass the same assessment as every other property. See our Disclosure page.
