These residences enjoy high occupancy and fill a niche gap in the market as the vast majority of MODERN rental homes are 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms renting for $360-$380pw, and cheaper rental properties under $300p/w are older and requiring maintenance. Therefore these are in demand from tenants.

The two key elements of the Incentive are:
- A Commonwealth Government Incentive currently of $8,343.05 per dwelling per year as a refundable tax offset or payment; and
- A State or Territory Government Incentive currently of $2,781.02 per dwelling per year in direct or in-kind financial support.

For this property, the KEY FIGURES are:
Discounted rent return - $25,792pa ($496p/w)
NRAS Incentives - $22,248.14pa. (2 incentives @ $11,124.07 for 2021/2022)
TOTAL Income - $48,040.14pa (over 11.5% gross return)
Note. Rent at $264pw (Unit 1) & $232pw (Unit 2) is discounted 20% as required by NRAS - Full market value rent is $620p/w for both units.
NRAS incentives apply to 21/08/2023.
Unit 1 currently leased until 10/09/2021.
Unit 2 currently leased until 9/5/2022.

The future path you take with this property is flexible! You can either:
1. Continue with NRAS and reap the benefits for the remaining NRAS term with the reassurance of a solid rental income;
2. Remove it from the scheme and rent it through the standard rental market once the current lease expires, or;
3. Collect the rental income for the remainder of the current lease and then move in to one of the units and rent the other out! Perfect for those who like to travel and still have a base to call home + receive income from the other unit.

Investment packages like this don't come along very often so if you're after another one for your portfolio be quick to call the listing agent Brendan Homan for more information on this property and how the NRAS scheme can benefit you.
