Discover our Birkdale property in Brisbane - a gem within our co-living portfolio!

This is one of our many co-living properties all our investors benefit from, spanning Brisbane, Melbourne, and Perth.
Strong market rental growth has increased the income we are receiving by 14% but has also resulted in 14% capital growth, as these properties are primarily valued based on their income, like valuing office buildings.

Give this post a 'like' if you're impressed with a 14% valuation increase. 👍

Exciting news for ResiFund's unit holders! We've leased out our recently acquired property in Perth's suburb of Morley within a week of settling on it, with a rental yield exceeding expectations. Perth's affordability and strong rental yields make it an attractive investment option for ResiFund. We're even looking to acquire another property in Perth, with agents reporting strong interest in properties priced below $650,000. Stay tuned for more updates!

In our latest ResiFund portfolio update, Matthew Lewison discusses the stability of rental income in the residential housing market and the importance of addressing the housing crisis in Australia.

Our investors come from a wide range of walks of life, including young people seeking to enter the market without a mortgage, retirees seeking income, or SMSF’s looking to enhance their returns.

It will also appeal to people who might otherwise acquire an investment property themselves, who may see this as a better option given the greater diversification, lower investment amounts required and potentially better returns. It also provides access to types of properties which are unavailable to most investors.

Investors can make an initial investment and then build their wealth over time through additional investments, our regular savings plan and reinvesting the rental distributions we provide.

We have taken advantage of the difficult Covid conditions in Melbourne to make another acquisition, this time in Bundoora in the north-eastern suburbs.

This property will be built on a vacant site and include 9 tenants. It is anticipated to provide an immediate uplift in value of around 20% once built and leased, and then generate a net income return of around 6.2% (after fees).

This level of net income is much higher than for typical residential properties and in the current low interest rate environment, will be seen by many investors as quite attractive.

Once our current properties in Melbourne and Brisbane are leased, we will have 23 tenants which will generate income returns from a range of sources, thereby providing good diversification and potentially lower risk for our investors.

A shortage of rental accommodation, multiple applications per property and rising rents are proof that Australia’s rental market is undersupplied, according to this RealEstate.com.au article.

Propertyology's head of research, Simon Pressley, is quoted as saying: "The reality is that Australia does not have enough housing supply for its existing 25.6 million population."

“Propertyology is predicting that these next couple of years will produce the biggest increase in rents that Australia has seen in living memory," he says.

Australia could be on the cusp of the “biggest rent increases in living memory” due to an undersupply of rental properties, rent rises and increased competition.

Construction of our Birkdale property in Brisbane will be complete next month and should be leased to another five tenants early next year.

Vacancies in Birkdale also remained low despite Covid, at 0.6% as at June 2020 (Source SQM).

Part of the reason we leased Noble Park, Melbourne, so quickly was that even during COVID, the suburb had a very low vacancy rate of around 1.3% (Source SQM).

In stark contrast, the vacancy rate in the Melbourne CBD at the same time was 8.8%.

This allowed us to rent the properties quickly and secure rents at close to what we had anticipated.

This is a great example of how investments like this can significantly outperform more traditional “blue chip” style suburbs or properties.

We have now leased 100% of the studios in our new property in Noble Park Melb, which is an excellent result.

It took less than three months to secure 9 tenants, despite Covid.

This is testament to identifying suburbs like Noble Park, which are close to retail, hospitals, community facilities, transport and areas of employment, which are really important aspects for tenants deciding where they want to live.

Who would have thought that when the world was going through a huge upheaval, Australians living abroad would want to return home?

Amazing that it has taken this long for these statistics to be published. Our first reference to this trend was made on July 27, 2020, in our review of Josh Frydenberg's mid-year budget update (here's a link to the blog post in question https://www.opencorp.com.au/why-debt-isnt-a-dirty-word-for-treasurer-josh-frydenberg/)

With the heartbreaking Covid-19 numbers that we are seeing overseas, it makes sense that Australians living overseas would want to return home where the death toll is low and our government has supported business and households financially.

For the same reason, we think there will be growing demand for people wanting to move to Australia in the years ahead and very strong motivation for the government to encourage them to do so. Time will tell whether our prediction of higher 'Net Overseas Migration' for the decade beyond Covid comes to pass.

The sheer volume of Australians returning home from overseas could lead to a spike in property prices, as data reveals the suburbs expats are targeting.

Original ResiFund investors have seen their investments grow by 13.5%, just since March 2019.

We have achieved this through constructing and leasing properties, which have generated both capital growth and rental income, and without reliance on typical market house price growth.

This is how we delivered a return of 9.40% over FY20, almost double that of ResiFund’s residential benchmark, which delivered 4.79% over the same period.

Investors can achieve these returns without having to take on a mortgage, thereby significantly expanding the number of investors who can invest in residential property.
