Our most recent off-market purchase in beautiful Williamstown was one which was almost tailor made for our fantastic clients.Their search criteria for their investment property included a target purchase price around $600,000, a dated townhouse in a boutique block, and a property within easy walk to train station.<\/p>\n

When the call came in about this 90’s era three bedroom townhouse in a group of just three, our inspections were quick to follow.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"2_60Wiillamstown is an interesting suburb. Arguably the prettiest suburb in the inner-west, this maritime township captures many hearts, particularly on weekends. A typical Sunday down on the strand is often characterised by picnics on the grass, fish and chips opened out, market stalls humming and bustling street-side cafes.<\/p>\n

The tenant demographic is slightly different in this patch; often a returning expat\u00a0or\u00a0worker on professional contract. While professional tenants are the likely tenant market, young professionals which typically target places like Brunswick or Kensington are less likely to choose Williamstown.<\/p>\n

Williamstown is tightly held and totally revered.<\/p>\n

Those in Williamstown don’t just find themselves living here, they\u00a0choose<\/em> to live in WIlliamstown.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Capital growth over the last 20 years for units in the area show a greater performance than 8%pa, and the last twelve months’ of growth has also sat above 8%. Compounded with the age of the property, we felt our client’s opportunity to achieve a purchase with a high “Land to Asset Ratio<\/a>” in a great, steady-performing suburb made this off-market a winner.<\/p>\n\"2_60\n\"2_60\n

A long-winded series of negotiations ensured and our resultant price of $627,500 was agreed upon some two weeks’ later. With a new tenancy at $440pw and a short settlement, our clients can look forward to investment property ownership in a blue chip location next month.<\/p>\n
