The high-yield investment strategy built for today’s market
Most investors are still chasing capital growth. But in today’s market, cash flow is becoming the real competitive advantage, with many investors rethinking their strategy. The question is: should you?
On The Smart Property Investment Show, Liam Garman sits down with Josh Crealy from LEVR to explain why tighter borrowing capacity, higher holding costs, and looming tax changes are forcing investors to rethink what makes a good property investment.
Crealy argues that strong yield is no longer just a bonus – it’s becoming one of the biggest drivers of buying decisions, allowing investors to hold assets more comfortably while positioning themselves for future growth.
The discussion then turns to blue-chip Melbourne apartments trading below replacement cost while delivering yields that many houses simply can’t match.
Drawing on a recent acquisition, he explains how one Melbourne unit purchased for $416,000 is expected to return around 6.5 per cent in rental yield while costing as little as $16 a week to hold, highlighting why investors are taking a fresh look at the city’s apartment market.
The pair also unpack Australia’s growing housing supply problem, revealing why established properties in tightly held locations could become increasingly valuable as rising construction costs continue to choke new development.
