Joyner Owner-Occupier Success Story: A 4-Bedroom Family Home for $776,000
At a glance: We helped a dad buy back into the property market with a four-bedroom family home in Joyner, secured for $776,000. The brief was a home with room for him and his daughter until she finishes school, in a suburb with strong long-term growth, and a property that would still stack up as an investment later on. Finance was arranged by Ryan Leahy of Moreton Bay Finance Broker.
The brief: a family home now, a sound investment later
Our client wanted a home that suited the next stage of family life, not just the first property that fitted the budget. The brief was clear:
- The right size for a dad and his daughter, with space to grow into
- A home to live in at least until his daughter finishes school
- Good capital growth and a fair rental yield, so the property would work as an investment if plans change
- Sound fundamentals: land, location and a practical layout
The Joyner property
The home we secured is a four-bedroom, two-bathroom house with two car spaces on a 450m² block in Joyner QLD 4500. It was purchased for $776,000.
Although bought as a home, the property was also assessed as an investment. It was appraised to rent for $600 to $620 per week, a gross rental yield of about 4% at the lower figure, and was valued at about $810,000 when this case study was first written.
