4 great reasons why you should build your own investment property
While established properties have the security of a proven rental history and a known desirable location, canny investors are seeing value in building their own and are looking to house and land packages.
It’s not hard to see why. For one thing, new houses often attract better tenants, and tenants love new homes; they’ve got modern floor plans and features, and everything is in perfect condition.
For the investor, new houses can also give better rental returns too.
Here are some more benefits why land and house packages make great investments.
Maintenance
Quality new properties generally come with fewer maintenance issues than older ones. Plus the building, fixings and fittings will be often be covered by a builder’s guarantee. This means significant savings in maintenance for the investor for the first few years. And less stress and hassle for the tenants!
Depreciation benefits
Since the changes in legislation a couple of years or so ago, depreciation benefits are geared towards buying newer properties. We suggest talking to your accountant and a depreciation specialist to find out more, but you may well find you’re be able to claim against the high starting value of the building, fixtures and fittings.
Potential savings on stamp duty
Stamp duty is the necessary evil in property purchasing, and although legislation has brought about changes in the brackets, it still can be quite high. The advantage of investing in a new house and land package, is you may find you only pay stamp duty on the land component. We suggest talking to your financial specialist as there could be the potential of saving thousands of dollars.
Tailored to your requirements
The beauty of building your own investment property is that you can get the most suitable block and can tailor the property to your requirements to maximise the investment potential. Many investors really think about the ideal tenant they would like to attract and then customise the house and land package to suit them.
