At Buywell Advocacy, we were proud to support two young medical professionals in securing their ideal first home in one of Brisbane’s most tightly held suburbs. This charming pre-market property at 53 Chermside Street, Grange offered everything they were looking for: lifestyle, location and long-term value.

The home features 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and a secure 1-car garage, all set on a level, low-maintenance block. With its solid bones and immediate liveability, it offers exciting scope for future improvements. Located just moments from Kedron Brook and within 5km of the Brisbane CBD, this property ticks all the boxes for convenience, community, and capital growth.

Thanks to our local market knowledge and strategic approach, we were able to secure this opportunity before it hit public listings — saving our clients time, stress, and competition.

Grange continues to attract strong demand for its family-friendly environment, outdoor lifestyle, and proximity to leading schools, transport and amenities. For this professional couple, 53 Chermside Street marks the beginning of their property journey — and a smart one at that.

At Buywell Advocacy, we recently had the privilege of helping a local downsizer secure her dream forever home — a stunning reimagined Queenslander in one of New Farm’s most desirable streets.

Located at 20 Abbott Street, this flood-free, character-filled residence blends timeless charm with modern luxury. Featuring 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a single car space, the home is designed for low-maintenance living with elegant, light-filled interiors and seamless indoor-outdoor flow. A sparkling mineral pool adds to its appeal, offering the perfect setting for relaxed living and entertaining.

Our client was searching for a refined, well-located home to support the next chapter of her life — and this property delivered on all fronts. Just moments from the Brisbane Powerhouse, James Street, and expansive green spaces, 20 Abbott Street offers the ideal balance of lifestyle, comfort, and convenience.

By acting quickly and strategically, we secured the property before the close of best offers — a testament to the value of expert advocacy in a competitive market.

This purchase represents more than just a move — it’s a thoughtfully chosen forever home, and we’re proud to have played a part in making it happen.

For our client—a busy medical professional—flexibility, location, and long-term value were essential. We secured a spacious 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom, 1-car apartment in Coorparoo that offers both comfortable living and strong investment potential.

With 127sqm of internal space, this well-appointed apartment stands out for its size and affordability. Located in one of Brisbane’s most convenient suburbs, it provides excellent access to public transport, local amenities, and major healthcare hubs—ideal for a professional lifestyle. Low body corporate fees and an immediate 4.5% rental yield at settlement further enhanced its appeal.

With a lease nearing completion, our client can choose to move in or continue leasing. The property’s flexibility, generous layout, and prime location made it the perfect first step in their property journey.

Brisbane, the capital city of Queensland, is experiencing a remarkable transformation driven by a significant influx of people. With Queensland projected to grow by 1.6 million residents by 2026, the demand for housing in Brisbane is set to rise dramatically. This population boom is creating a unique opportunity for property investors and homebuyers alike, making now the ideal time to secure an investment in the Queensland housing market.

For one interstate family, the dream of owning a beachfront holiday home that also delivers strong returns has become a reality. We secured this fully renovated 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartment in Broadbeach’s prestigious Beach Haven building off-market for $1,165,000—complete with never-to-be-built-out ocean views and excellent investment fundamentals.

This apartment is part of a tightly held complex on absolute beachfront land, offering unmatched ocean views and access to newly refurbished facilities. Currently tenanted at $1,000 per week, it delivers a solid rental yield with the added flexibility to switch to holiday letting—unlocking a potential return of $85,000+ per year.

Located in the heart of Broadbeach, this acquisition balances lifestyle and performance. With long-term capital growth prospects and a premium location near world-class amenities, this property is not only a coastal getaway but a strategic addition to a high-performing portfolio.

At Buywell Advocacy, we recently assisted our local investor clients in securing their next value-add project — a well-positioned post-war home in the high-growth suburb of Chermside. Purchased for $900,000, this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home on a 637m² block offers exceptional renovation potential and long-term investment upside.

Situated within walking distance to Westfield Chermside and 7th Brigade Park, and neighbouring sought-after Wavell Heights, the location combines lifestyle convenience with strong capital growth prospects. A standout feature of the home is the large, lined, and air-conditioned Colorbond shed — a valuable space ideal for storage, a workshop, or recreation.

With the option to convert the lower level into a legal-height self-contained studio, this property offers excellent potential for dual living or rental income. For investors seeking flexibility and strong rental yield, this home presents a rare opportunity in a tightly held, well-connected pocket of Brisbane.

By securing this property, our clients have positioned themselves for both short-term gains through renovation and long-term returns in a suburb with growing demand and family-friendly appeal.

Investing in real estate can be a daunting yet rewarding venture, especially for those living abroad. Recently, we identified a promising post-war home on a generous 809m² block that perfectly illustrates our ‘Build Wealth’ strategy. Below, we’ll explore the benefits of this investment and why it represents an excellent opportunity for savvy investors.

Prime Location

Situated just a short drive from local shopping and rail transport, this property is in an elevated position, providing not just comfort but also convenience. With Brisbane CBD less than 40 minutes away via a direct rail line and Ipswich CBD only 10 minutes by car, this location is ideal for both homeowners and tenants alike.

Strong Rental Demand

The area boasts strong rental demand, making it an attractive choice for investors. This consistent demand is fueled by the proximity to amenities, transport links, and the overall livability of the suburb. For those looking to maximize returns, investing in a property that appeals to renters is essential.

Capital Growth Potential

Post-war homes are often seen as a blank canvas for investors. This particular property, while tidy, remains in its original condition, presenting a prime opportunity for renovation and modernisation. Given the rising property values in the region, there’s significant potential for capital growth. With careful upgrades, investors can enhance the property’s value while also increasing its rental appeal.

One of the standout features of this property is its additional access through a second driveway. This presents a unique opportunity to build a granny flat, which can further maximise rental returns. In today’s market, properties with multiple income streams are highly desirable, and the ability to add a secondary dwelling can significantly boost your investment’s profitability.

Our ‘Build Wealth’ strategy focuses on identifying properties with untapped potential. By choosing a property like this post-war home, investors can benefit from:

• Value Add Opportunities: Renovating and modernizing the home to attract higher rents.

• Dual Income Potential: Utilising the second driveway for a granny flat or secondary dwelling.

• Location Advantage: Capitalising on the area's strong rental market and proximity to key amenities.

Investing in post-war homes, especially those identified before they hit the market, offers significant advantages for investors living abroad. With the right approach, this property on 809m² presents an excellent opportunity to build wealth through capital growth and rental income. If you're considering investing in real estate, let this be a reminder of the potential that lies within well-located, original-condition properties.
