For the members of the Altiru Investors Club we actively search for investment-grade properties that may become available for sale. Whenever we find such an opportunity we first visit and analyse the property to ensure that it adequately measures up to the high standards we set, and then present it to Investors Club members for an exclusive period before the property becomes available on the open market. Members are invited to acquire the property as part of their investment portfolio.

We consider a large number of factors to assess the desirability of a property from an investor’s point of view. Here are just some of the contributing factors we assess to determine if a property will achieve our high-level investment goals:

• High yield – low levies per square meter, low expected maintenance costs, premium rent possible, avoid complexes in estates with double levies
• High capital growth – location, competent body corporate, neatness of complex
• Desirable to many tenants – well-maintained, quality of finishes, security, adequate and comfortable parking, appealing layout of unit & complex
• Low vacancy rate – desirable finishes, good location in complex, popularity of neighborhood, good perceived value for money, low traffic hassles
• Low hassle factor – complex has >20 units, prepaid electricity, well maintained
• Low risk – rental in the sweet zone, prepaid electricity, good complex financials, upkeep of the complex infrastructure
