It’s possible to increase rentals yields from your residential property to more than 7%+ and many of our investor clients are taking advantage of this opportunity. This is known as a dual income strategy and in today’s tougher lending environment this strategy can assist investors improve their loan serviceability.
Constructing Second Dwellings or Auxiliary dwellings or ‘granny flats’, has recently become a popular property investment strategy in NSW and certain Brisbane local council areas. Investors may add the granny flat to an existing property that they own or purchase a property with this strategy in mind.
Landlords do not need to subdivide their land to create the second dwelling so can save lots of money on council fees. The granny flat (secondary dwelling) will be on the same title as the primary dwelling so cannot be sold separately.
Through careful planning and site selection however, investors may be able to subdivide the second dwelling in the future. So when land values have risen, the investor may want to capiltalise and split the titles and sell one of the dwellings or have them revalued as separate titles.
The dual income strategy may suit investors who are looking to increase their cash flow and loan serviceability. They may already have considerable equity in their property portfolios and wish to strike a good balance between growth and cash-flow.

Chris is the consummate professional, everything you could ask for from a property agent. We achieved the result we wanted (well above guide price). The tenants were very willing to assist with all open inspection by presenting the property in the best light. This was due to the great relationship fostered by Chris with the tenants. This helped us achieve the results we were after. The communication throughout the process was very clear and concise. Chris was always respectful of our time also as everyone is busy, in this day and age. My opinion of property agents to date has been average to poor (due to past experiences) so its was refreshing to know there are still great agents out there who actually care and it is isn’t just about their profits. No doubt I will be using Chris’ services in the future.

I have owned investment properties for 30 years in different states around Australia and have always had them managed by property managers. I can honestly say, hand on heart, that Pillar Property has provided the best service of all of them. First I met with Managing Director Chris White who always provided detailed information to help me make my decisions. Chris then handed me over to his property manager Rachael Brown and her attention to detail and careful management of my property is literally second to none. I highly recommend Pillar Property and I know that anyone that uses them will be as impressed as I am.

Pillar provide the best service
We have been working with Chris since 2004 and the team at Pillar Property manages our investment properties. As well as being fantastic property managers, they have also coordinated renovations which have provided us with a substantial increase in rent. Whilst we are working overseas, it’s imperative that we have someone looking after our properties that we can trust.
