Two properties = Two sets of income with one investment!
This property, set over 1,012m2 includes two completed homes and a shed fitted out with storage and a studio conversion. Both properties are currently tenanted and return $520 per week excluding the shed. The shed, which has potential to be let separately, could increase the yield and would be a perfect location for a small business or tradesperson wanting to be located close to the CBD. If you’re a tradie you could make this an office and let it back to your small business whilst controlling the rent. Both homes are in great condition and, even though they are not brand new, they would offer reasonable depreciation.
