Last Listing description (June 2017)

There are so many good reasons to buy a DHA investment property. Years of guaranteed rent - and then consider moving in at the end of the lease when you want to retire. Imagine passing this home onto the children at the end of the lease. And in the meantime, you have all the financial advantages your accountant can explain to you about claiming 100% of the stamp duty, and having rent paid even when you have no tenants.
On offer is a split level home built by one of Canberra's award winning builders: Blackett Homes. There are two separate indoor living areas, plus the Stratco pergola and the kitchen all having north orientation. There are four good sized bedrooms, with the king sized master bedroom segregated from the remaining bedrooms. As well as a walk-in-robe to the master bedroom, the other bedrooms have built-in robes. For the lovely spring and summer months, there is a pergola and tidy gardens.
Franklin is well regarded by buyers as having a great reputation - and a home built by Blackett Homes is another very important factor when making your choice of investment properties. Franklin has great parks sprinkled throughout the suburb with bike paths to local schools. Renowned for attention to detail and quality fixtures and fittings, you can be assured that this property will be a welcome choice for your investment portfolio. The streetscape is excellent, with other quality homes nearby.
