Free investor plan · Property Planmaker series

Make one block work twice as hard. Then go again.

The Double Up Plan — the exact play our investor clients use to add a second income to the right block, manufacture equity instead of waiting for it, and roll into the next purchase sooner.

Educational content only — not personal financial, tax or investment advice. Outcomes illustrative, not promised.

Grow the pie

1Buy right

The block with options beats the block that's merely cheap — zoning, second-dwelling potential, the pockets where buyers AND tenants compete.

499 vs 506 square metres

2Manufacture equity

Reno, comparable-sales revaluation, or a second-dwelling approval lenders can assess on future value. Our due diligence once found $150,000 in 7 square metres.

The Double Up

3Stack the options

Granny flat, dual-occ, extra bedroom, short-stay where zoning allows — multiple income angles and exits designed in, not hoped for.

Buy add revalue go again

4Go again

Structure decided first, lenders competing for you — so manufactured equity becomes the next deposit. Cycles, not weeks. That's how the pie grows.
