Land tax on rental | 1974 build needs updates | Established suburb | Block size a strength This property presents a measured opportunity. The primary risk is the land tax burden of $5,425 annually if rented, which directly reduces net yield. The 1974 construction requires a buyer to budget for likely updates to systems and finishes, a cost that a full inspection must quantify. The commercial logic rests on the large 836 m² block, offering future subdivision or extension potential, but this comes with approval risk. Hold for long-term land value appreciation rather than immediate rental return. The competitive strength here is the land-to-floor ratio, rare in modern infill. The 148 m² floor plan on 836 m² gives a buyer positional leverage for future capital works. This property best serves a buyer who wants to occupy and incrementally improve, capturing equity through sweat equity and land value growth. For a buyer ready to commit, the next step is a structural and pest inspection to price the immediate capital requirements.
