This Brisbane couple, with a young family, already owned their home and had built up significant equity. They wanted to put that equity to work and take their first step towards building an investment property portfolio.
Using the equity in their Brisbane home as the deposit for their new investment loan, they engaged Empire8 to design and build their duplex.
Having never built before, they were understandably nervous about the process. They wanted to know they were in good hands, so we worked closely with them throughout the project to make the experience as simple, transparent and stress-free as possible.
Living in Brisbane, they regularly travelled to the Sunshine Coast to see the progress firsthand. We kept them involved throughout the build, giving them the opportunity to see their investment taking shape and giving them confidence every step of the way.
When construction was complete, both units were rented immediately, providing them with an income-producing investment from day one.
Even better, the completed project created more than $200,000 in equity.
What started with the equity in their family home has now become their first step towards building a property portfolio.
From using existing equity to creating new equity — Empire8 helped make their first investment property a reality.
