The Details
About The Property
The ultimate entertainer. This recently renovated Inner city pad ticks alot of boxes as an investment property. It's in the small Inner West pocket of Kingsville, nestled between Yarraville, West Footscray and Footscray. Surrounded by public transport connections and only being a short commute into the CBD, it's sure to attract the busy young professional who likes to entertain. The property was built in 2010 so there's still opportunity for tax depreciation on the build, fixtures and fittings (please consult your accountant for further information). Brick veneer finish with stainless steel kitchen appliances. The land is sub-divided into 3 lots; Lot 1 - 2 bed freestanding house on 274sqm / Lot 2 - 2 bedroom townhouse on 127sqm / Lot 3 - 2 bedroom townhouse on 160sqm. We're looking at Lot 2.
The current vendors have turned the garage into a studio/second living area. The potential is to leave this as is, convert into a 3rd bedroom (STCA) or return the space to a garage. We would like to view the property first and then give you a recommendation on our thoughts.
Agent Advertising Details:
• Superbly updated town residence offers expansive living just minutes to all the popular cafes and restaurants the Inner-West has to offer
• Unique large side garden
• Lock up parking which doubles as an indoor studio or further entertaining space
• Two generous size bedrooms with access to their own bathroom (the main with a walk in robe)
• Separate laundry facilities
Your Brief Specifics
• 1.5km from the train station - This property is 1.2km from West Footscray Station (15 minute walk)
• Land size 400sqm block / 120sqm house - This townhouse falls shy of your prefered land and living area specs - 127sqm land and 88sqm living area. It does however use every square metre to it's full potential with quality finishes and outstanding outdoor entertaining area.
• 10% capital growth / 5% rental yield - We note the capital growth for the past 12 months in Kingsville is 13.09% and the rental yield is 3.0%. There is no way to guarantee that the property you buy will increase in value, but in order to increase your chances, we have carried out detailed research on the property and Kingsville in general. We estimate that the rental yield will be below your ideal 5%. Overall Melbourne yields are low in comparison to other markets. We believe as demand catches up with supply in Melbourne (following suit in Sydney), that demand for housing will grow and rental yields will increase. This property is in great condition and presents an opportunity to attract higher rent and quality tenants.
Our Thoughts
We have included this property to the mix because we believe it's a great investment property for your portfolio. There's nothing left to do with this property, it really is a sit and forget scenario. Our only concern is the true value of the property. Being very unique in the area, there's very few accurate comps to get a true value. We have listed the target price as $620,000, however, this could be short of the mark. Our preference would be to complete the site inspection to be able to give you a more accurate valuation.
