OVERVIEW

As a licensed investment property buyer’s agent, inSynergy is an accredited investment property buyer’s agent. We review and analyse data from the most recognised and respected Australian research providers including BIS Oxford Economics, Hotspotting, Residex and ANZ Economics to identify cities and regions that demonstrate all the signs for strong growth and return on investment.

Working closely with our property alliance partners, we help our clients acquire investment properties in high growth areas that achieve high rental yields based on this Independent research.

inSynergy investment property acquisition services are completely research focused, using a comprehensive risk adjusted return on investment portfolio approach.

Our approach

Research based: We use the best independent research we can acquire from companies like BIS Shrapnel that have highly experienced masters and doctorate qualified economists to help maximise your chances of not only long, but especially short and medium term growth to help build a high-performance portfolio quicker.

Risk adjusted: We give you our absolute commitment that we will never recommend high-risk types of property, such as long term off-the-plan property, without making you clearly aware of the risks and full consideration of your risk profile.

Return on investment portfolio approach: Our property recommendations are made in line with your property investment strategy. We help maximise return on investment and diversification in a future focused and balanced portfolio growth approach, designed to take advantage of growth markets while avoiding or minimising state based land taxes.

Fees

Our investment property acquisition services are available via two fee structures:

1. A ‘free to you’ commission structure: This serviceis basically an investment property brokerage servicewhere the vendor, developer or project marketingcompany pays us. We are essentially being paid as(or replacing) the real estate agent. Technically, ina compliance sense, we are acting for the vendor,selling a pre-selected investment property productto you, while still using all the principles outlinedabove. This product is usually limited to new propertywhere commission is available to be paid. There areliterally hundreds of developers vying for us to selltheir product, however we only recommend around1-3% of the property that passes our strict pre-selection process.

2. Comprehensive fee for service buyers agent

service: This is a completely comprehensive,independent service where we are wholly paid byyou to exclusively represent you. As you pay us, weare not limited to assessing and sourcing only newproperty that has commission available. We are thenfree to source from every property on the market,Australia-wide. If we source a property wherecommission is payable, 100% of that commissionis paid to you. In most cases, this commission willcover the full fee, and often leave surplus funds foryour own use. The fees for this service range from2-4% of the purchase price (2% for established/complete property, 3% for off-the-plan (thoughrarely recommended) and 4% for house and landpackages). This higher rate for house and land isdue to the high amount of project and contractmanagement and assessment required, howeverthe cost is often completely rebated by commissionpayable, so there is rarely a net cost to you.

Note: Fees are generally tax deductible*

Advanced mortgage broking & investment finance

inSynergy offers specialised mortgage broking and finance services that help our clients safely build significant wealth.

Successful investors treat debt as a tool to build

wealth rather than seeing it as a burden. This is

an important mindset when creating your finance

strategy.

Our advanced lending strategies, including finance

and ownership structures, land and income tax

minimisation, borrowing capacity optimisation

and valuation maximisation enable the creation of

substantial and tangible wealth – far over and above

any one lender or standard mortgage broker.

Using Advanced Equity Strategies to grow your

wealth

If you have more than 25% equity (this is, the

difference between the value of your home and

how much you owe on it), it’s considered ‘lazy

equity’ and could be costing you as much as

$50,000 a year in lost opportunity.

Property valuations are another area that can make

or break an investment strategy. Unfortunately,

valuations between lenders commonly vary by 5%

and in some cases, up to an astonishing 25%. This is

especially true if it’s for a property being revalued

to access equity. Putting that in perspective, for a

$1 million property, it translates to a difference of

$50,000 to $250,000, all because of contrasting

opinions between a conservative valuer and a more

confident one. We work with our clients to teach

them methods to legitimately get an appraisal that

reflects a property’s true potential – something that

can significantly increase your returns.

Other strategies we use include:

• How to secure your loans separately and why

this nearly always helps you make hundreds of

thousands of dollars more over the medium to

long term;

• How to structure the ownership and borrowing to

increase borrowing capacity, while reducing risk,

income and land tax (this alone can save around

$200,000 plus over 20 years in cash flow), which

in turn can help you hold more property more

safety and significantly increase returns;

• Which lenders will allow you to make the most

of this equity and how to effectively split your

structure and strategy between these lenders.
