Although this is true, it\u2019s only partly true.<\/span><\/p>\n

Yes, it does take time to make money investing in houses, but you can dramatically reduce that time by forcing value on your investment.<\/span><\/p>\n

One of my favourite ways to do this is through subdivision.<\/span><\/p>\n

Subdivision is a fantastic way to make money and while it does take a bit more effort than other strategies, the gains you can achieve are well worth the effort.<\/span><\/p>\n

To illustrate the benefits of forcing value through subdivision let me share a story with you.<\/span><\/p>\n

Recently, my dad wanted to get a better return on his investment than the 3.75% offered by his bank, so he rang me for my advice.<\/span><\/p>\n

As you might suspect, I suggested investing in houses as a means to increase his returns. \u00a0I recommended that he purchase a property which he could subdivide and quickly realise a great return.<\/span><\/p>\n

So he did just that.<\/span>
\nI helped him find the perfect deal in Mudgee, New South Wales; a two-bedroom, six unit development for $740,000 ($123,000 per unit) which had not been strata titled.<\/span>

Subdivision Types<\/b><\/h3>\n

Strata subdivision<\/i><\/strong><\/h4>\n

After strata is completed and all costs accounted for, the price per unit is projected to be about $230,000 each – an increase of $107,000 per unit!<\/span><\/p>\n

That means he will gain about half a million in added value! Much better (and faster) than any gains on 3.75% interest, wouldn\u2019t you say?<\/span><\/p>\n

Needless to say my father is thrilled with the outcome of his investment.<\/span><\/p>\n

While this is fantastic, you don\u2019t have to strata title a development to make money through subdivision. Simply splitting an oversized lot can yield a great return!<\/span><\/p>\n

Just ask my mum.<\/span><\/p>\n

Block subdivision<\/span><\/i><\/h4>\n

My mum also wanted my advice, but she was planning to sell.<\/span><\/p>\n

Her home in Gladesville in Sydney was becoming unaffordable, and as she was nearing retirement she planned to use the proceeds to fund her lifestyle.<\/span><\/p>\n

I told her I\u2019d be happy to help her sell, but when I took a closer look at her property which was situated on a 1012 square meter block, I realised we could do something much better.<\/span><\/p>\n

Her lot had been considered a standard size when she purchased it 30 years ago, however by today\u2019s standards, it was quite large.<\/span><\/p>\n

Checking with local council we discovered that the minimum block size was 500 square meters.<\/span><\/p>\n

As my mum\u2019s house was in the back corner of the block we were able to split the lot, create two separate titles and then sell the vacant half for $1.1 million dollars!<\/span><\/p>\n

Now, rather than uprooting herself, my mum can stay in her long time home <\/span>and<\/span><\/i> fund her retirement!<\/span><\/p>\n

I am very pleased that my folks were able to achieve such great results from their ventures, but I don\u2019t want you to think that this strategy only works with large sums of money.<\/span><\/p>\n

Because it doesn\u2019t.<\/span><\/p>\n

I have seen it applied across a wide spectrum of price ranges and in a varied number of markets.<\/span><\/p>\n

The other types of subdivision include:<\/span><\/p>\n

Granny flat addition<\/span><\/i><\/h4>\n

Availability depends upon location.<\/span><\/p>\n

Second property<\/span><\/i><\/h4>\n

This involves building a structure on land which you have split and then either renting out or selling the property.<\/span><\/p>\n

Raw land<\/span><\/i><\/h4>\n

This strategy is both time and capital intensive. It \u00a0requires splitting the land legally and physically.<\/span><\/p>\n

The type of subdivision you choose will depend upon the physical characteristics of the property, it\u2019s location and the desires of the local demographic.<\/span>
