Super investment

  • Same price as a normal house:  Construction costs vary to a lesser degree.
  • Passive income: rent one unit while you live in the other.
  • Ideal for construction on corner blocks: both fronts get access to the road. This means maximized value you can command higher amounts as the rental will have a distinct look and not just feel like a small portion of the overall construction.
  • No need for a body corporate: You can easily sell one part of the house, so you have quick access to cash when in a crunch.

A family dream

Setup of Reverse Living Builds
  • Just like dual occupancy homes, Duplexes are flexible for family members with different needs
  • Two homes on either side, and potentially multiple storeys if needed.
  • You can actually make 4 units by constructing one on ground floor and one on first floor as well. 
  • Have an old parent or relative who needs care? Build (or rebuild your home as a ) duplex rather than a Granny flat or Guest House. 
  • Lots of space for everyone, unlike apartments where parts of the structure is shared.
