Frequently Asked Questions

Is 2025 a good time to invest in a new property in Queensland?

Queensland’s booming property market is forecasted to continue growing rapidly in 2025, presenting favourable opportunities for new investment properties.

According to data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics, Queensland has surpassed Victoria to become Australia's second-biggest property investment market as of Q4 2024. Property prices across Queensland have enjoyed a consistent upward trend — 12.14% over the past 12 months since September 2024.

What are the benefits of building an investment property instead of buying?

Building an investment property in Queensland instead of buying offers several benefits:

  • A completely new property covered by a 7-year builder’s warranty. Newly built homes eliminate maintenance costs early on, maximising returns for investors.
  • The opportunity to refine factors influencing a property’s investment potential — such as location, proximity to amenities, community, and type of home — creates a property that readily attracts tenants and future buyers.
  • Potentially lower investment costs than buying — house and land packages are an excellent option for investors who want a turnkey investment home.
What is the process for building an investment home in QLD? 
  1. Consultation and Research — We set up an initial meeting to understand your investment goals and the type of property you want to build. Based on your preferences, we’ll conduct research into potential locations in Queensland that offer the best combination of factors for future property growth and demand.
  2. Design and Customisation — After deciding on the location, we can customise the design of the investment home. We offer a selection of house and land packages for investors who want a turnkey solution, as well as customisation options.
  3. Construction — Secure quality materials for the project and ensure that all aspects are meticulously managed. We’ll keep you updated throughout the process and provide timeline estimates for each stage of construction.
  4. Handover — Once the home is fully built, we’ll conduct a final inspection to ensure that it meets a high standard of quality. After a walkthrough, we’ll hand the keys over to your new investment property. We also provide after-service support to address any minor issues that may arise.
