🎉 Another Massive Win for a Returning Client! 🎉

When our client first teamed up with me just 3 years ago, I helped him secure an investment property that has since grown by an incredible $300,000 (a 50% increase!). 🚀

When you get results like that, coming back for round two is a no-brainer. We've been hard at work and just secured him an absolute cash-flow powerhouse to add to his growing portfolio!

The New Acquisition: A fantastic Dual Occupancy investment in a fast-growing market of NSW.

Why this property is a huge win:
✅ Dual Income Streams: Delivering a massive combined rental return of $890 per week with established tenants already in place!
✅ The Setup: 5 Beds 🛏️ | 3 Baths 🛁 | 2 Cars 🚗 across two low-maintenance units (Unit 1 is a 3x2x1, Unit 2 is a 2x1x1).
✅ Prime Location: Located just 15 minutes from the city centre, offering a relaxed village lifestyle with huge long-term growth potential and high rental demand. 🌳

This is exactly why our clients keep coming back. At Ready Set Buy, we don't just find properties; we build high-performing portfolios and create long-term wealth for everyday investors.

Ready to experience this kind of growth and add a high-yield property to your own portfolio? Let’s make it happen.

𝗔𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗘𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻 𝗦𝘂𝗯𝘂𝗿𝗯𝘀 𝗦𝘂𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 🔑

𝗦𝗲𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗽𝗿𝗲-𝗮𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝗻 𝗦𝘆𝗱𝗻𝗲𝘆’𝘀 𝗘𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻 𝗦𝘂𝗯𝘂𝗿𝗯𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗯𝘂𝘀𝘆 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗽𝗹𝗲 - 𝗶𝗻 𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝘁𝘄𝗼 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸𝘀 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗽𝘂𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗮𝘀𝗲!

This one is a perfect example of why having a dedicated buyer’s agent matters.

One of our clients was flying internationally during the negotiation period, which could have easily complicated the process. Instead, we coordinated every moving part with the solicitor, broker and selling agent, managed the communication across multiple time zones, and were even up at 4am to ensure decisions could be made in real time while our client was overseas.

That level of support is often the difference between securing the right property and missing out.

The property itself is something truly special - a ground-floor apartment with an exceptionally large and unique outdoor courtyard area, a rarity in Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs and a major drawcard for long-term lifestyle and resale appeal.

By moving quickly, completing due diligence efficiently and negotiating before auction, we were able to secure the property before it went to the open market auction campaign.

For busy professionals, especially those travelling for work or managing demanding schedules, this is exactly where a buyer’s agent adds value: we become the local eyes, ears and negotiator on the ground so our clients can continue with life and work while we handle the property process.

✈️ International travel managed seamlessly
⏱️ Secured pre-auction in under two weeks

Another strategic Sydney purchase secured for our client 🔑

We’ve just secured this excellent apartment in Hurstville, Sydney for a client who is investing today while planning for their future owner-occupier needs.

This purchase was particularly rewarding because the client had a very specific brief - the property needed to be:

✅ Ground floor for easy accessibility
✅ Minimal stairs and convenient day-to-day access
✅ Within close proximity to Hurstville Station and public transport
✅ Walking distance to shops, medical services, cafes and other essential amenities
✅ Suitable for immediate rental demand while also functioning as a comfortable long-term home

Finding a property that met all of these requirements in a competitive market required a highly targeted search and careful due diligence. We focused on properties that offered not just investment fundamentals, but also genuine lifestyle practicality for the client’s future plans.

Hurstville stood out as the ideal location, offering strong rental demand, excellent connectivity to the Sydney CBD, major retail amenity and a well-established community environment. This gives our client the ability to generate rental income now while securing a quality property that can easily transition into their future home.

This is a great example of how we help clients buy with a long-term strategy, balancing investment performance with personal lifestyle requirements from day one.

🚨 𝗝𝗨𝗦𝗧 𝗣𝗨𝗥𝗖𝗛𝗔𝗦𝗘𝗗 | 𝗦𝗠𝗦𝗙 𝗜𝗡𝗩𝗘𝗦𝗧𝗠𝗘𝗡𝗧 𝗪𝗜𝗡 🚨

We’ve just secured this modern, low-maintenance investment property in Queensland for one of our SMSF clients and importantly, we were able to get it across the line just before the new government deadline came into effect.

𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗦𝗠𝗦𝗙 𝗽𝘂𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗮𝘀𝗲
With recent government changes creating tighter timeframes around SMSF property strategies, acting early made all the difference. By moving quickly, our client was able to secure a quality asset before the deadline and avoid missing a strong opportunity.

𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝘄𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘁𝘆
✅ Near-new modern build
✅ Low ongoing maintenance (ideal for SMSF ownership)
✅ Strong tenant appeal with 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and double garage
✅ Excellent rental return from day one
✅ Located in a high-growth Queensland market benefiting from population growth, infrastructure investment and strong housing demand

For SMSF investors, the goal is often long-term wealth creation with minimal management headaches. Properties like this are exactly what we target: modern homes with broad owner-occupier appeal, strong resale demand and solid rental fundamentals.

In a market where many investors are sitting on the sidelines waiting for certainty, our clients are still buying quality assets backed by research and strategy.

𝗖𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗦𝘂𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗦𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 | $𝟯𝟮𝟲,𝟬𝟬𝟬 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗶𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝟮.𝟱 𝗬𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀

This is exactly why I love what I do.

Back in November 2023, I helped a client secure an investment property in QLD for $710,000.

In May 2026, they sold property for $1,036,000.

THE RESULT
• Purchase price: $710,000
• Sale price: $1,036,000
• Gross profit: $326,000
• Time held: Approximately 2.5 years

What makes this story even more rewarding is the message we received from our client after the sale:

“We sold the property back in May for $1.04m after you purchased it for us for $700k only a couple of years ago, which we are really happy with and will hopefully allow us to finally purchase a home of our own. I just wanted to share and say thanks again for all of your help and especially the support you gave us along the way!”

This is the part that matters most.

Yes, the numbers are fantastic, but helping a client build enough equity to move toward owning their own home is the real win.

At Ready Set Buy, our role doesn’t end once the property settles. We stay in our clients’ corner throughout the journey.

Congratulations to our clients on an incredible result and thank you for trusting us to be part of it.

💰 $290,000 in equity growth. Less than 3 years.

While most people were watching the property market from the sidelines, our client's investment property was quietly doing the heavy lifting.

✅ Purchased: September 2023 – $610,000
📈 Current Valuation: July 2026 – $900,000
💵 Equity Growth: $290,000

That's an incredible 47.8% increase in under 3 years.

The best part? They didn't renovate. They didn't develop. They didn't spend every weekend managing the property.

They simply bought the right property, in the right location, at the right time with a strategy focused on long-term capital growth.

This is the power of investing with a data-driven approach and thinking beyond today's market headlines.

And with the fundamentals in this area still looking strong, we're excited to see what the next few years hold.

If you're serious about building wealth through property, don't wait for the "perfect time" - focus on buying the right asset.

Another successful purchase with over $100,000 in instant equity.

We're excited to have secured this fantastic apartment in Dee Why for one of our clients, and it's a great example of why today's market presents opportunities for buyers who have the right strategy and representation.

Here's what made this purchase stand out:

✅ Advertised price guide: $1.1 million
✅ An identical neighbouring apartment recently passed in at auction at $1.1 million, with a reserve of $1.15 million
✅ We successfully negotiated this property for $1.0 million

By understanding the vendor's priorities and structuring an offer that met their requirements—not just focusing on price—we were able to secure an outstanding result.

Even better, the desktop valuation has since come back at $1.13 million, meaning our client has effectively purchased with approximately $130,000 in equity from day one.

To put the market into perspective, an identical apartment within the same complex previously sold for $1.2 million.

This is a clear reminder that we're now seeing a market where informed buyers can secure exceptional value. While not every property represents an opportunity like this, there are deals available for buyers who know where to look and how to negotiate.

Whether you're:

🏡 Buying your first home
📈 Investing
👨‍👩‍👧 Looking for a larger home
🔑 Downsizing

Now could be an excellent time to explore your options.

If you'd like to understand what's possible in the current market, we'd be happy to help.

🚨 Are investors overreacting to negative gearing changes?

Negative gearing was never a “strategy” - it was simply the result of making a loss. The proposed changes don’t remove the benefits entirely either… they may just delay them. Smart investors focus on long-term growth, not tax refunds.
