Build an Investment Property with Orbit Homes

Build with your investment goals in mind

Building an investment property is an important financial decision, whether you’re purchasing your first investment or adding to an existing property portfolio.

Understand your budget before you build

Having a clear understanding of your borrowing capacity and overall investment budget is an important first step.

Your finance arrangements will depend on your individual circumstances and investment strategy. We recommend speaking with your finance professional, accountant or financial adviser about your borrowing capacity, loan structure and the costs associated with purchasing and building an investment property.

Our sales team can then help you explore home designs and building options within your plans.
 

Find an investment property in the right location

Location is an important consideration when choosing an investment property. Think about the type of tenants you want to attract and the features that may make a property appealing to them, such as access to transport, schools, shops, employment areas and community facilities.

Orbit Homes builds across a range of Victorian locations, giving you the opportunity to explore different communities and find a location that aligns with your investment strategy.

Choose a home designed for the market

The right investment property isn't necessarily the biggest or most expensive home. It should be a home that makes sense for your intended market, location and investment strategy.
When comparing potential investment properties, consider factors such as:

• Location and demand – consider the local area and the types of tenants it may attract.
• Home layout – practical floorplans can appeal to a broad range of households.
• Size and functionality – consider how much space is appropriate for your target market.
• Ongoing costs – factor in the costs of owning, maintaining and managing the property.
• Long-term plans – consider how the property fits into your broader investment strategy.

Our range of home designs gives you the flexibility to explore different layouts and sizes when selecting a home for your investment.

Do your research before building

Property investment involves more than selecting a home and a block of land. Before making a decision, it's worth considering the location, your target tenant, your budget and how the property fits into your longer-term plans.
Independent advice from a qualified finance professional, accountant, financial adviser and property professional can help you understand the financial and tax implications of your investment.
Orbit Homes can help you with the home building side of the process, from exploring designs and locations through to getting your new home underway.
