Kate is about to make over $130,000

Kate is a Gold Coast lawyer and university lecturer.

She’s a busy mother and very time poor – between her work and busy weekends full of school sports and family time. Her children are important to her, so she prioritises them on the weekend.

There was some money in a family trust, but the returns weren’t working for her – so when she saw what we had done for another client, she turned to Michael Knights of Horizon Property alliance for a strategy.
Location is key to the success of any property purchase.

We presented several options based on Kate’s strategic preferences and settled on a good block of land in Nambour, on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast, building a duplex to keep & hold as a rental – a return of around 7%.

Michael is known for his negotiating skills and managed to find Kate a great block perched on a north south facing hill well under market value, a saving of around $40,000. The block is in a prime location, 5 minutes from the Heart of town, close to a hospital and walking distance to everything, including a major shopping Centre and a school.

On that we designed & built a pair of large duplexes, both with double lockup garages.
We tendered our plans to our preferred builders and had the job completed to a high standard, completely turnkey with nothing more to pay. Our builders are a large part of our secret sauce.
The Numbers:

  • Land $260,000
  • Stamp Duty and Solicitors fees $9000
  • Construction cost: $466,000

Headworks charges, strata fees and all related council obligations and fees were included in the construction costs.
The completed project was $735,000 full turnkey no more pay.

Kate was delighted! So much so that she decided that she would sell in order to build another project. The completed project is now on the market, selling two separate units for $455,000 each.

That’s $910,000 in gross realisation.

At $455,000, the total profit is a staggering $175,000, over the space of 9 months, less our commission and marketing fees.
She’s a very happy customer, with a great quality Duplex project. The best part is that everybody wins – that’s the way we like it.

Once this project is sold Kate will be ready to build another one with us.

It’s a new Hobby for Kate, she invests for her retirement, spending some of her profits on a Great Holidays for her and her family. We do all the work and research for our clients – we’ve even been known to invest ourselves and share the profits via Joint Venture. We put our money where our mouth is and always back up our claims.

At Horizon Property Alliance we share and educate our clients like friends – we encourage all of our contacts to have a go and surround themselves with a good team of independent experts in their respective fields.

The Secret is to take action.
Get involved – take action and consider speaking to us, we’ll partner with you and show you how to do it yourself. Or we can do it all for you so can enjoy the rewards for yourself just like Kate.
