Rentvesting has long been a smart strategy for getting into the property market without compromising lifestyle, but in today’s complex market, it’s gaining even more momentum.
In a recent article, economist Nerida Conisbee explains why rentvesting is growing in popularity, especially among first-home buyers and younger investors. High property prices in desirable locations mean buying where you want to live is often out of reach. But with rentvesting, you don’t have to give that up. You can rent where you want to live, and invest where your money works harder.
At its core, rentvesting is about flexibility and financial intelligence. But like any good strategy, the results depend on how it’s executed.
Where We’re Aligned with Nerida’s Thinking:
We agree with all of that. In fact, we’ve been helping clients apply this exact strategy successfully for more than 20 years.
But there’s one point from Nerida we don’t entirely agree with: Nerida raises an important point about the difficulty of finding a true hybrid – properties that offer both strong capital growth and strong rental yield. She notes that this is typically only possible in mining regions that also have other industries to support the local economy. And while that may be true in some cases, we see a risk in those smaller, more volatile markets.
The good news? In the final part of her hybrid analysis, Nerida describes the exact type of location we’ve been investing in for years: large, diversified economies with consistent demand, infrastructure investment, and long-term growth potential. In fact, what she describes is a perfect match for what we’re seeing, and delivering, in places like the Sunshine Coast.
With the right property in the right area, and the right strategy, you can achieve:
And we’re doing this not in small or speculative markets, but in one of Australia’s top 10 largest cities, a location with real population growth, infrastructure investment, and long-term stability – the Sunshine Coast.
But it’s not just about the “where”. Too often, people chase hotspots or media hype. But smart investing also comes down to what you’re buying.
The properties delivering the best results are those meeting a real market need:
That’s where we come in.
