Getting Started
Our Approach
The Process
Investment & Financials
You'll receive a confirmation email with the date and time. Your discovery call is a complimentary 15-minute phone conversation with a property consultant, so you don't need to join a video meeting.
We'll discuss your goals, current position and whether InvestorKit is the right fit. If it is, we can arrange a more detailed video consultation to explore your situation and our process.
You do not need pre-approval for your discovery call. Speak with your broker or lender about your borrowing capacity and deposit requirements before committing to a purchase.
Pre-approval is time-limited and conditional. Final approval depends on your circumstances and the property you choose.
You'll speak with one of our property consultants about your goals, current position and possible next steps. You can also ask how InvestorKit works and what support would suit your situation.
We buy investment properties across Australia. The markets we consider depend on your brief and our research.
Our approach combines in-house research, a dedicated property team and ongoing portfolio reviews. We assess markets and individual properties against your goals, budget and risk tolerance.
Strategists and acquisition specialists guide you through the process, with regular check-ins and annual reviews after purchase. Investment outcomes depend on the property, market conditions and your circumstances.
We don't buy new build properties due to a few key reasons:
- Lack of reliable data on new build areas
- High supply can limit growth potential
- Too much of the cost is tied up in the liability (the house itself) rather than the land
- Potential delays in construction
- We prefer properties that are ready for tenants to move into immediately
We assess the property against your brief, including your goals, budget and risk tolerance. Our research considers the market, rental demand, comparable sales and potential risks.
Each property is assessed using a 20-point due diligence checklist. This process helps inform the decision, but it cannot remove investment risk or guarantee a return.
Our service includes assessing your current position, creating a property brief, researching markets, sourcing and negotiating properties, coordinating the purchase and providing support through to tenancy.
After purchase, regular check-ins and annual portfolio reviews help you assess progress and consider your next steps. Your consultant can explain the scope that applies to your situation.
Typically, 2 to 4 months from signing your agreement to exchanging contracts. Timing depends on your brief, finance and available properties; it is not a guaranteed deadline.
We work with residential and commercial investment properties. The right option depends on your budget, borrowing capacity and goals.
Residential purchases focus on established houses. For commercial property, we assess tenant quality, lease terms and vacancy risk. Your consultant can explain the different requirements.
That's completely fine, it's your property and your choice. If you decide a property isn't right for you, we'll move on to the next one. However, we'll also ask a few questions to understand why, so we can update your brief and make sure the next option is a better fit.
We don't invest in NDIS properties, new builds, units or apartments, knock-down rebuilds, or properties that need major work. Our focus is on established properties in growth markets that require minimal effort from you and offer strong potential for capital growth.
We track and review your portfolio through yearly reviews with your strategist. During these sessions, we assess your portfolio's performance, analyse market conditions, and discuss any adjustments needed to keep you moving forward confidently. This helps ensure your investments remain on the right track.
No, we don't. Owner-occupier purchases are all about finding a home you'd love to live in, while our focus is purely on investment properties where the numbers stack up and the strategy aligns with your financial goals.
As a general guide, investors need around $100,000 in available savings, accessible equity or guarantor support, or around $200,000 for an SMSF purchase.
Residential purchase budgets start from $525,000, or $575,000 for SMSF purchases. Commercial budgets typically start from $2M and can exceed $10M.
These are starting guides, not lending approval. Confirm your borrowing capacity and deposit requirements with your broker or lender.
Absolutely. Many of our clients invest using an SMSF or Trust. Just let us know, and we can connect you with the right professionals to guide you through the setup and help you understand the potential benefits.
