Smart Development, High-Yield Returns at Drayton QLD

Located in the heart of Drayton, this six-unit residential development is a prime example of OwnerDeveloper’s expertise in strategic acquisition, thoughtful planning, and innovative market-driven design. Initially approved for the construction of four townhouses, the project quickly evolved after OwnerDeveloper conducted a detailed market analysis, identifying an opportunity to increase the development’s yield by expanding the project to six units. By leveraging deep knowledge of the local property market and understanding the growing demand for quality housing in Drayton, the decision to increase the number of units allowed the project to not only meet market needs but also maximise profitability for investors.

Strategic Planning and Efficient Execution

Our team took a methodical approach from site acquisition to construction and completion.

Selecting a site with excellent accessibility and proximity to amenities, ensuring the development was both attractive and convenient for tenants.

This careful planning enabled a smooth transition into construction, which was efficiently managed to meet deadlines without compromising quality.

Strategic Acquisition

This property was acquired through a "Mortgagee in Possession" auction, originally listed as part of a distressed developer’s portfolio.

Despite being outbid at auction, a calculated post-auction offer and strategic negotiations secured the site below reserve price, laying the groundwork for a high-performing investment opportunity.
