WHAT IS ROOMING ACCOMMODATION?

Rooming Accommodation, also referred to as rooming, rooming homes or rooming houses are homes that have five (5) separate ‘studios’ under the one roof providing tenants with their own bedroom, bathroom, living area and kitchenette.

These days new rooming accommodation properties are high quality homes that provide flexible housing for a range of people – from healthcare and emergency services professionals, to essential workers and single people of all ages.

People who live in rooming accommodation homes enjoy privacy and security and appreciate the ease of living in a home that’s already furnished and where most expenses are included in the weekly rent.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS TO INVESTORS?

Rooming Accommodation properties are an attractive proposition for investors due to their ability to accommodate multiple tenants resulting in higher rental incomes and yields compared to traditional residential property investments.

A fully tenanted rooming home can return up to $100,000 gross per annum for investors with an 8% gross yield*.

Additionally, the shared living model leads to lower vacancy rates, as the departure of one tenant does not equate to a complete loss of rental income.

FLOORPLANS

We have a range of floorplans to suit varying sizes of land. All our floorplans consist of 5 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms and a living space with kitchenette and a common area with kitchen and dining. A laundry room and outdoor space / yard are also for the use of all residents.

HOW MUCH RENT DO TENANTS PAY?

Depending on the location, tenants usually pay from $370-$450 for their studio on a minimum 6-month lease agreement. This is inclusive of all outgoings such as power, water, electricity and internet.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS TO TENANTS?

Rooming Accommodation homes benefit tenants by providing a cost- effective and convenient living arrangement. Rather than living in a share house or group home, tenants have their own space and can simply bring their linen and clothes and move straight in.

Rooming accommodation properties look like any other home from the street, however internally tenants enjoy their own private fully furnished studio. They also have access to a shared communal kitchen, laundry and yard.

WHY BRISBANE?

Known for its favourable climate, economic opportunities, lifestyle and access to the Gold and Sunshine Coasts, Brisbane continues to experience population growth with an additional 1.65 million residents projected for the 12 Brisbane Local Government Areas (LGAs) by 2041.^

This growth will create more demand for housing with options such as rooming homes helping to provide additional housing to cater for the demand.

The 2032 Olympics is also set to transform the city into a vibrant hub creating jobs and boosting the economy. This boost will also contribute to an increased demand for housing.
