U1st Realty can help you with buying an investment property. For many Australians, once the family home is paid off – or a reasonable amount of it – they start to look at other ways of building wealth to fund their retirement or to assist their children. Often their first thought in wealth creation is to buy an investment property. It has been our experience that sadly many newbie investors only look at the properties and not at the necessary structural set ups for effective property investing and investing safety measures.

Some questions you may wish to consider include:

Is it better to put all my spare money into paying off my mortgage or should I consider other investments?
Am I better to invest my extra money in property or shares?
Are there tax advantages to owning an investment property?
Do I have to pay tax on an investment property?
Are there other ways I can invest in property, apart from directly buying a property myself?
Am I better off investing directly in property or into a managed fund that invests directly in property?

We can help you:

Identify options to fund an investment property.
Look at realistic amounts you can borrow based on your current financial commitments and plans.
Set a budget to cover your mortgage commitments.
Advise on strategies to minimise tax.
Review, recommend and organise appropriate insurance.
Recommend if you need to create a new will or review/revise your cureent Will.
Recommend if you need to create an EPOA (Enduring Power of Attorney).

"What we thought was going to be a nightmare, turned out to be a stress-free process. We really appreciated Jeff's patience in working with us to break our lease. His patience, transparency and empathy made it easy and pleasant. He definitely does things differently to other real estate agents in that he is up front but still very respectful, and we really appreciated that because there's no ambiguity. Unlike most real estate agents we've dealt with previously, Jeff had our best interests at the forefront of his work. That is a testament to his good character. Thank you for a positive experience, we highly recommend Jeff as a quality Realtor.”

IR Homes’ Granny Flats are built on either Surefoot Concrete Free Footings, steel piers, or screw piers. Depending on your location and zoning, different rules will apply depending on your intended usage for the granny flat, as you will need to lodge an application with council (IR Homes can help with this).

There are 2 steps that are REQUIRED to Arrange a Fixed-Price Building QUOTE.

1. Preliminary Costs - These are Site Specific Costs needed to be gathered BEFORE a Formal Building Contract can be written.

Needed:

* Town planning Pre-Assessment report: Includes site specific costings and fees required for this project

* Building Designer/Architect - Preliminary plans and after all reports detailed Construction plans and BA/DA Approval plans.

* Electrical and plumbing quoted on a site by site basis.

* Waste water report. You will need a special report done for council to show how you will manage your wastewater from your site. Allowances will need to be made for new connections or septic systems.

* Electrical connections. Electrical costs will vary depending on your requirements. If you are building a granny flat (secondary dwelling for relatives) you may be able to run the power off the main house. IF you are building a Secondary Dwelling - Investment) It will be more expensive as a switch board upgrade or new separate metering connection is required.

* Full Site survey and Geotechnical report. This includes a site map showing the slope of your site and a soil test. These are general build requirements that are reasonable straight forward to arrange.

* Engineer's Report: Footings , Wind Loadings, + structural sign off. Another general build requirement; all new building work needs to be signed off by a structural engineer.

* Energy Efficiency Report

* Private certifier fees. IR Homes need to engage a private certifier to obtain all the required building approvals for your project.

* Council fees. We will advise of this cost in the preliminary stage as this varies depending on area and build type. We advise that you talk to your local council as a first step, they can generally explain their fee structure first hand and can also advise on any local specific build requirements - that we must comply with.

* Compulsory Home Owners Building Insurance

2. Formal Contracts - Fixed Price Contracts.

* Once we have obtained all the necessary approvals, Total build costs will be Formalised and presented in a Fixed Price Building Contract - BEFORE You sign a Formal Building Contract. Once signed and Finance in place... THEN the actual build process can begin.

* All our builders are fully insured and licensed and will build your Granny Flat as a permanent habitable structure (class 1a).

Property spruikers and investment seminars

Finding Buyers for Targeted Property - Not Matching Suitable Property with the Buyers Investment Strategy

Property investment promoters, or spruikers, invite people to their ‘wealth creation’ seminars, often for free, with the promise of investment tips or opportunities. They typically promote a property investment system or market a specific property development.

The seminars are often promoted through letterbox pamphlets, on social media and by email. At the seminars the spruiker may urge you to buy investment courses or materials such as books, DVDs, one-on-one coaching, 12 month mentorships, etc.

Many property spruikers are motivated to gain money at your expense. Don’t risk your money and hard-earned assets because of their potentially-misleading advice.

Due Diligence is essential: get independent, professional advice from People who are actually qualified to give advice (not just someone who may have a piece of paper saying that they are legally allowed to give advice) before commiting yourself to making any investment.

Also be wary of joining real estate investment groups or insider investing clubs, many of which are full of investment property spruikers and marketeers who care more about collecting their fees than your financial well being!

Finding-An-Investment-Property Basics

In selecting an investment property it is critical that you follow a strict due diligence process to ensure an effective investment strategy. Condensed from a detailed checklist, investigations must include research into the following:

Location - Look at where people want to rent that is well located to surrounding infrastructure and facilities
Value for Money - Buy at or below current market value.
Infrastructure - Investigate current and planned infrastructure for the location you are considering
Rental Return - Minimum of a 4% gross yield
Design and Finishes - Consider whether design and finishes meet your prospective tenants demand (NOT what you want to live in personally)
Quality and Integrity of Developer/Builder - Investigate & Inspect past projects whenever possible

Hiring the Wrong Selling Agent for Your Property The most common and most dangerous way for an owner to hire a licenced real estate agency is based on an estimated sales price and the agent’s sales commission fee. This rarely works out well.

Owners basing their decision on these two factors alone are more likely to fall victim to an inflated price estimate. The agent gives little thought to achieving the best price or avoiding a poor digital footprint, and instead works, over a period of time, to educate the seller into reducing their price.

Hiring an agent based on their marketing and negotiation skills will always prove a sound investment. Good negotiation can mean a difference of tens of thousands of dollars. With the wrong agent, any fee is too expensive.

Example: An agent received a written offer from a buyer on an actual Contract of Sale. He then takes the contract and drops it at the owner’s front door with a note informing them to sign within half an hour and return it to his office. No effort, no skill, no seller assistance, and no sale. Was this agent worth their fee? No way!

Example: A property is listed for sale at $319,500, an offer is made by a prospective buyer a CASH unconditional offer at $260,000. The desparate seller accepted the offer on the recommendation of their agent. The buyer was interviewed later and asked why they didn’t pay more than the original offer, the buyer simply responded, ‘Nobody asked us to’. The seller lost $59,500 because the agent couldn’t be bothered going back and asking one simple question, ‘Will you pay any more?’ Was this agent worth their fee? No way.

NB: Hiring the wrong agent could mean a substantial financial loss all because you didn't want to pay the Best Agent's Commission Fee.

A Professional Sales Proposal Has to Make Cents, Before it Make Sense!

The Council Approved Dual Living Dwelling provides the investor with two rents instead of one, which means that the property would normally be positively geared (Positive geared properties are properties that generate more income than you have to pay in expenses, this is before you take tax savings into account). Our dual-living house and land packages are fully council approved for legal multiple residency letting. A fire rated dividing wall separates the living areas, and the extra soundproofing ensures the multi-occupant's privacy.

When viewed from the road this home appears to be a quality standard residential dwelling. It’s when you look at the floor plan that the dual living design becomes apparent. What appears to be one dwelling is actually two dwellings. There are minimal outgoings with only one set of rates and no body corporate fees.

Benefits:

For investors, the two rents help ensure that your cash flow is positive - i.e. You are not paying any shortfall in ownership costs out of your own pocket. For the owner-occupier, the added dwelling brings in that extra income or provides a home for other family members to live in.

The phrase "single-family home" is something you'll often see when browsing through real estate listings. A single-family home might seem easy to define: It's a home for a single family, right? Eh, not exactly. To be classified as a single-family home, there are requirements the property must meet.

What are those requirements? Let's take a look.

What is a single-family home?

The legal description for a single-family home is “a structure maintained and used as a single dwelling unit." So what does that mean exactly? A single dwelling unit will have these characteristics:

No common walls: A single-family home is a stand-alone, detached property, this means the home doesn't share common walls or a roof with any other dwelling.

Land: A single-family home has no shared property but is built on its own parcel of land.

Entrance and exit: A single-family home has its own private and direct access to a street or thoroughfare. This is as opposed to an apartment, which has hallways and a lobby that lead to street access.

Utilities: Only one set of utilities can service a single-family home—and may not be shared in any way with another residence. This applies to heating, electricity, water, or any other essential service.

One Household: A single-family home is built as the residence for one family, person, or one household.

Single kitchen: A single-family home has one kitchen. Adding a second kitchen will alter a home's zoning classification.

You want to sell your business for a profit. Obviously.

But you’re not going to fool anyone. If your business is worth chicken feed, then no sane buyer is ever going to pay a premium price for it!

As eager as you are to take your earnings and retire in luxury, you have to be realistic about the TRUE WORTH of your business' value..

Here’s where you enter the bean-counting realm of business appraisers. A competent appraiser will be able to determine how much your business is worth and determine a realistic market price you can sell it for.

Don’t be scared of getting a business appraisal. Prospective buyers will either ask for one or order one themselves in the due diligence period; so you might as well have an INDEPENDENT VALUATION to show them. You’ll gain credibility by doing so.

What’s more, you’ll know personally if you’re in a good position to sell now.

If the prospect of selling looks financially abysmal, you can either...

lower your expectations, or
take a year or two to get the business profitability and sustainability into better condition, or
get outside professional coaching assistance to do a health check on your business, and recommend the changes necessary for a successful sale.

With real estate - location is everything. When selling your business, timing is everything.

Sadly, selling your business often only becomes an option for many owners when their business if facing bankruptcy, staring down legal challenges, or cannot stop hemorrhaging money.

Selling the business at a huge profit is completely out of the question. Your only prospective buyers will be specialists in distressed business purchasing, and they will be eager to wring every last cent of saving from the deal.

When is the magical “right moment” for selling?

It’s when your business is doing well. A business that is firing on all cylinders is when it is enormously appealing to investors. The better the business is doing at consistently making money, the higher the price you can sell it for.

Business buyers know that there’s going to be a learning curve as they acquire a new business. Investors realize that there will be some slow down as management changes hands. If you can prove that the business is operating like a well-oiled money-making machine, you’ll be able to sell at a wild price.

Take into consideration market conditions as well.

Is your industry in a bubble?
Are interest rates low or high?
Are consumers spendthrift or skittish?
The economic status is another critical factor in the timing of the sale.

It all depends on the when.

Any deal-sniffing cashed-up investor or legitimate business buyer is going to do something that anyone is going to do if they are considering a purchase.

They’re going to "Google" you and read the public reviews on your business!

Deals don’t start in a corporate conference room. Deals start when a prospective buyer sits in front of their computer and types in the search bar “Your Company Name.”

What are they going to see?

Thankfully, you get to control that. The better your brand looks online, the better you’ll be able to sell your brand to someone else.

Here are some of the features that will make your brand stand out:

Appearance - At a minimum, make sure you have an attractive logo, consistent branding, and a polished look. Your personal brand matters, too.
Visibillity - Does your brand even appear in a Google search? If not, it may be worth it to focus on your search rankings first.
Integrity - If the first thing that appears in the search results are scandal headlines, class action lawsuits, or scam reports, you have a problem on your hands. A brand that is attractive to buyers is a brand that possesses integrity.
A loyal following - Social accounts are a must-have, but the activity on those social accounts is just as important as having them. Are you posting regularly on the social media platforms like: Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Google+, and Instagram. Buyers are purchasing your customer database, not just your office space and inventory. Make sure you can prove a loyal customer base to all your potential buyers.

What is your business really good at?
What is it that makes it attractive to prospective buyers?

Identify this trait, and maximise it.

Usually, a buyer will have a single reason for their interest in buying your business. Yes, they may say that it “fits the criteria,” or “there are a lot of attractive features,” but really, there’s one standout feature that makes it an ideal acquisition for them!

Your job: Find out what that feature is.

That single glistening selling point is going to depend a lot on the buyer. Every buyer comes to market with a set of specific goals. The more closely your business aligns with those goals, the more appealing it will be.

As a business owner, you have a responsibility to know the buying market, thereby gaining a greater understanding of what makes a for-sale business attractive.

Here are some particularly powerful generalised selling points:

You have a loyal and motivated team of employees.
You have an extremely valuable brand.
You possess a piece of unique technology or innovation.
You have a huge social media tribe.
You occupy an ideal niche in the marketplace.
You are located an ideal geographic location.
You have a stellar team of switched-on managers.
You possess good gross profit margins that will provide great cashflow and great aftertax profits.

The better you can direct attention to your favourable selling points, then greater the interest a buyer will have in your business and NOT in someone elses!

How many business owners do you know who need immediate access to cash funds?

They simply can’t wait the 6 – 8 weeks that a bank or traditional lender takes, as they urgently need to get their hands on between $20,000 up to $2m; They need these funds urgently, by tomorrow - yes - within 24 hours!

Plus, what if...

they have don’t have financial records, or
you have a bad credit history?

Then a short term business loan maybe the answer for them.

These loans are perfect for moving a business forward, or taking care of current issues such as tax debts, divorce or family demands, or overdue debts to suppliers.

A short term business loan has saved many property investors save their deposits and due diligence costs when a property deal sours because their traditional lender fails to provide the necessary funds by a crucial deadline date.

Do you NEED a Simple Process to qualify for a Business Loan, then...

Are you wondering whether or not you should own real estate for your business?

Well, here is a simple question to ask yourself: Is Buying better than Leasing for my business?

Cheaper Operating Cost Base: Are you working hard and giving away a big chunk of your profit to pay someone else's mortgage?
Security: if you buy your own property, you’ll have a more secure and permanent place for your business that can never be leased out from under you with a must-move clause. This removes any worry you may have about where to move to next every time the term of the lease ends.
Long-Term Wealth Creation: Owning a property is a long-term investment, while renting is a short-term fix. If you have a solid capital and your long-term plans for your business involve using the same commercial property, then buying is the better option. Buying your own property is a long-term investment which will pay for itself in time.
You Can Lease Out a Portion of the Property & Earn Rental Income: If you know you will remain in the same location long-term, then purchasing the property can be a good investment. This is particularly beneficial if you won’t need the entire building because you can lease out a portion, thereby earning rental income. You can use the income from your rent to help pay your mortgage.
You Can Design the Property as You Please: One of the major advantages of buying a property for your business is that you have full control over the property. You have the power to decide what needs to be done in terms of designing the property according to your business’ requirements and won’t need the landlord’s approval for this.
Your Mortgage Will Likely Be Lower Than Your Lease: If you have the cash for a deposit on a commercial property loan, and if you are planning to stay in the same location throughout your business’ lifetime, then buying a property is a great idea. Often, your mortgage will most likely be much lower than what your lease would cost you – plus you get to own the capital gains on the property you are paying for.

NB: Low-income earners can still qualify for rental properties.

Low Income earners can still qualify for a rental property as long as they can show the property manager a constant income stream; government assistance income (if applicable), and that they have enough funds in the bank to pay the property bond and upfront rent required.

If they can show though their household CASHFLOW plan - that the property they are applying for is AFFORDABLE and wihin their budget guidelines, in terms of of overall household expenditure planning, then ... there should not be a problem.

A favourable tenancy history and a good rental track record is one of the most important references an individual can have in the property rental sector.

It stands to reason that each individual is entirely responsible for their own actions and how they have responded in any situation faced.

Individuals can influence their own current future by the results of their past actions. If your past history is not good, how will you convince a current property manager that your behaviour has changed for the better?

Pay your rent on or before the due date, and always remain in advance.
Maintain the property in a clean state so when routine inspections are conducted by the agents they can provide a good report to the landlord.
Keep in contact with your agent - especially if you get into difficult situations.
Co-operate with your property manager on periodic inspections.
Report faults with the property promptly and in the manner which, the property manager has advised.
Avoid being abusive even if a property manager can’t see your point of view.
Do not sub-let without your property managers appropriate written approval.

We have outlined a few key points for you to consider when choosing a managing agency for your investment property/properties.

Selecting the right property manager is one of the most fundamental decisions you’ll make and can make a difference not only to your overall returns, but also the enjoyment of your investment.

Over the last few years, property management has undergone a significant transformation, from simply a rent collection service, to a dynamic investment management and service system. This changing scene has brought about the need to appropriately manage new legislation and the consequences to ensure fairness for both owners and tenants alike. This includes, in some regions, the Strata Titles Act, Residential Tenancies Act and deregulation of fees charged.

It is important to realise that together with the legislation comes a greater onus on owners and agents to follow the requirements of these laws. Now more than ever, it is prudent to ensure that your property is professionally managed by entrusting it to a manager who is trained, experienced, and equipped to meet these ever changing needs.

Property managers are employed within a licensed Real Estate Agency framework. It is therefore the agency owner who is ultimately responsible for the property, so it is essential you choose a reputable person whom you trust when selecting the business as your partner to manage your property for you. It’s a big decision that creates a medium to long term working relationship and you need to feel comfortable with the company you’re dealing with.

Rest assured, when you choose U1st Realty Property Management, you will be joining other property investors and owners who have put their faith and confidence in us to professionally manage their property.

Once you have entrusted U1st Realty Property Management as your agent to manage your property, you will be exclusively authorising that agency to act on your behalf. We will then appoint experienced property managers, who will be responsible for the day-to-day management of your property and tenancy.

Your property manager/s will act as guardian/s of your property and will provide a range of ‘personalised’ services that all include:

• Professionally screening and selecting tenants

• Providing a detailed explanation of the owners’/tenants’ rights and obligations

• Receiving rents and issue receipts

• Arranging for repairs and maintenance to the property

• Paying of accounts such as water services and council rates

• Processing any insurance claims that may arise

• Exercising the owners’/tenants’ rights to terminate leases and tenancies

• Reletting the property at the end of each tenancy in the event of a vacancy

• Preparing and checking the property’s inventory

• Doing all such lawful things as may be directed by the owner in writing from time to time

• Professionally and accurately reporting on the condition of the property at the inception, during and end of each tenancy

• Such authority is given for a period of time and thereafter until written notice is given to terminate the management by either party in accordance with the terms and conditions outlined in the Form 6 authorisation agreement.

Owning an investment property is one of the most popular methods throughout Australasia for acquiring wealth.

However, you’ll need to be aware of the sorts of responsibilities that you will have as an owner. The most obvious responsibilities are:

• To provide the premises in a reasonable state of cleanliness and repair having regard for the age, character and prospective life of the property

• To comply with all requirements in respect of health, building and safety laws in so far as they apply to the premises

• If you are the handy type, you may wish to carry out some repairs and maintenance yourself to the required standards, otherwise our preferred property maintenance partner is EZEE Property Maintenance – who will supply and manage all the necessary trades for you.

• The owner is responsible for ensuring that the property is kept in good condition at all times.

• Some expenditure incurred for repairs (not of a capital nature) may be an allowable tax deduction against rental income – ask your Tax advisor for clarification on this issue.

How to set a fair rental price

Setting a rental price is one of the most critical decisions you will make as the owner of the property. Your U1st Realty Property Management Team is best qualified to assist you with determining a fair market rental value for your property based upon your instructions and the current market conditions.

The condition of the rental property must be considered when assessing rental value. Location of the property to vital infrastructure is also relevant; as is the length of term and additional services offered.

Some owners make the mistake of setting the rent too high and consequently not attracting a tenant. This will waste your advertising dollars, along with the loss of potential rent whilst trying to secure a suitable tenant willing to pay the higher rate.

Some owners make the mistake of setting the rent too low and consequently lose valuable income, which may hinder their ability to grow their property portfolio. This loss of potential rent may hinder your ability to maintain your property to the required standards, and may sour your experience as a property investor.

ENGAGE... U1ST REALTY AS YOUR PREFERRED PROPERTY MANAGER

U1st Realty property management fees.

Paying fair remuneration by way of management fees & charges to a reputable agent is one of the most critical decisions you will make as the owner of the property.

U1st Realty Property Management is built by property investors, borne out of the frustrations of dealing with agents who don’t even own property or care about the issues faced by owners.

We found that traditional agents lack the understanding and insight required to manage our own properties effectively. We would often encounter situations where our instructions weren’t followed, tenants were treated with disdain and maintenance issues dealt with poorly, ultimately resulting in a loss of income to us as investors.

We undertook to build our property management business that would address the 3 components we felt were lacking in traditional agencies:- Simplicity, Honesty and Transparency.

Simplicity - We have removed the elements from the business that are not essential to providing great service to property owners. We don’t waste money on expensive office space, we have streamlined all our processes by maximising use of technology and we follow our investors’ instructions. Because we understand what a property investor needs and how to achieve the best outcome, we simply get on with it.
Honesty - Nothing is more frustrating than when someone says one thing and then does another. We won’t use your fees & charges to advertise our agency with glossy, unnecessary and quite frankly outdated advertising. Honesty doesn’t just mean full disclosure at all times, but it also involves not withholding critical information from you. This leads us to our last mandate of transparency.
Transparency - We have no hidden fees and no hidden agenda. We simply want to manage your property as efficiently as possible and treat your investment property as if it were our own. We will disclose everything to you in a timely and professional way.

We hope you’ve found value in the information we have provided.

Q. What does a landlord legally have to provide?

A. Once a tenant moves in, a landlord is required to make repairs and conduct maintenance to keep the rental property in habitable condition. A habitable property is one that has adequate heating, water, electricity, cleanliness, and is structurally sound. Laws vary from state to state, and even from city to city, especially in the areas of fire, health, and safety.

Q. What are the landlord's repair responsibilities?

A. Although landlords are primarily responsible for ensuring the habitability of the rental property, both landlords and tenants are responsible for certain repairs.

PLEASE NOTE WELL: However, a landlord is not responsible for repairing damages that were caused by the tenant, or the tenant's family, or the tenant's guests, or the tenant's pets (and only authorised pets should be on the property and that includes tenant's guest's pets).

ENGAGE... U1ST REALTY AS YOUR PREFERRED PROPERTY MANAGER

U1st Realty property management fees.

Paying fair remuneration by way of management fees & charges to a reputable agent is one of the most critical decisions you will make as the owner of the property.

U1st Realty Property Management is built by property investors, borne out of the frustrations of dealing with agents who don’t even own property or care about the issues faced by owners.

We found that traditional agents lack the understanding and insight required to manage our own properties effectively. We would often encounter situations where our instructions weren’t followed, tenants were treated with disdain and maintenance issues dealt with poorly, ultimately resulting in a loss of income to us as investors.

We undertook to build our property management business that would address the 3 components we felt were lacking in traditional agencies:- Simplicity, Honesty and Transparency.

Simplicity - We have removed the elements from the business that are not essential to providing great service to property owners. We don’t waste money on expensive office space, we have streamlined all our processes by maximising use of technology and we follow our investors’ instructions. Because we understand what a property investor needs and how to achieve the best outcome, we simply get on with it.
Honesty - Nothing is more frustrating than when someone says one thing and then does another. We won’t use your fees & charges to advertise our agency with glossy, unnecessary and quite frankly outdated advertising. Honesty doesn’t just mean full disclosure at all times, but it also involves not withholding critical information from you. This leads us to our last mandate of transparency.
Transparency - We have no hidden fees and no hidden agenda. We simply want to manage your property as efficiently as possible and treat your investment property as if it were our own. We will disclose everything to you in a timely and professional way.

We hope you’ve found value in the information we have provided.
