Our proprietary 'Property Investment Ecosystem' provides a structured, comprehensive framework designed to systematically allow selection of only the highest-quality investment properties, tailored specifically to each client’s unique investment objectives and personal preferences.

Investing in property involves both science and art. Our Property Investment Ecosystem meticulously integrates the two, while demonstrating the highly strategic principles that underpin our everyday decision making when buying property for our clients.

PROPERTY INVESTING ECOSYSTEM

The Property Investment Ecosystem

The ‘Property Investment Ecosystem’ is based around three Investment Criteria which form our property performance selection criteria, and three Wealth Drivers, which are crucial to creating and sustaining wealth.

Timing Property Cycles

Identification of the state/city/major regional centre

Australia is not just one property market. Each state, capital city, region and significant regional centre is its own property market, and growth phases within each of these markets occur at different times. When buying an investment property, it is essential to select a market that is in an early-to-mid growth phase to achieve above-average capital growth. Property Navigation identifies the property markets that provide the best opportunity for growth and/or cash flow in South East Queensland.

Location selection

Identifying the best suburbs

Location does 70% of the heavy lifting when selecting investment-grade properties that will perform well into the future. Therefore, we invest a huge amount of time and research into collecting data on suburbs that present the best value and growth opportunities.

Asset selection

The final step for maximising success

A dwelling produces cash flow through its rental capacity, meaning the quality of the dwelling is also of significant importance. Property Navigation predominately buys pre-loved homes, placing emphasis on the appreciating component of the deal – the land, as the physical dwelling depreciates in value over time. Attaining both capital growth and cash flow is achievable if the right asset is selected.

We conduct high-level due diligence on each property presented to our clients to assess how it fits into their long-term plan and goals related to subsequent property purchases.

How you create and sustain wealth

Wealth Drivers

At the asset level, we must investigate future cash flow, any value-add potential, and forecast capital appreciation to determine the investment grading of each property.

Capital Growth

This is when a property increases in value, and where real wealth is created. As the value of a property increases, equity can be extracted and used to grow an investor's portfolio. The loan-to-value ratio improves as each property value increases, which allows investors to leverage off the bank's money instead of their own.

Capital Growth creates equity. Equity accelerates an investor’s ability to accumulate properties, being used on its own or combined with savings – See below.

Serviceability (income) + deposit = Property 1
Serviceability (income) + deposit + equity = Property 2, 3, 4+

Cash flow

Cash flow liquidates debt, especially in the early stage of a loan’s life. As cash flows increase (rent goes up and/or mortgage repayments go down), excess cash flow can reduce more debt. A passive income stream generated from the rental property can also be combined with other main income streams to increase serviceability levels to assist in building out a property portfolio.

Over a 15 – 20+ year period, excess cash flows increase to a level that can replace or subsidize an investors income creating what’s known as a passive income stream. It’s not impossible, it just takes time.

Value add potential

Adding value to a property is key to maximising efficiency throughout the investment process. Increasing the amount of equity harvested from a property is essential when reinvesting to purchase subsequent properties.

Performing minor face-lifts and renovations and even adding granny flats are straightforward ways to increase property value. Adding value increases equity and allows higher rents to be charged, ultimately increasing rental yields to pay loans down more quickly. The manufacture of equity/growth and cash flow can be utilised at varying degrees when needed and is an excellent risk mitigation strategy.
