How to compare properties

The best investment decisions come from comparing options, not analysing properties in isolation. Running multiple scenarios side by side helps you see which property delivers the best yield, the lowest weekly out-of-pocket, and the strongest long-term position.

Compare yields across suburbs

A cheaper property in a high-yield suburb might deliver better weekly cash flow than a more expensive property closer to the city. Compare gross and net yields side by side to see which suburb gives you the best return relative to price.

House vs unit

Houses generally offer stronger capital growth but lower yields. Units can deliver higher rental returns but come with strata fees that eat into cash flow. Comparing both side by side โ€” with all expenses included โ€” reveals which structure suits your strategy.

New vs established

New builds unlock full depreciation benefits and may be exempt from proposed negative gearing restrictions. Established properties are often cheaper per square metre but lose the depreciation advantage on fixtures. See the real after-tax difference by comparing both.

Different states, different costs

Stamp duty and land tax vary dramatically between states. A $700K property in NSW costs thousands more in stamp duty than the same price in QLD. Comparing properties across state lines shows the true cost of entry and ongoing holding expenses.
