Above market capital gains

Client brief(s)

Over the past 12 months we have purchase a number of apartments for home owners and investors looking to capitalise on the 2032 Olympics in the long term while benefiting from higher than average capital gains in the short-term through the acquisition of below market value properties.

In late 2024, through the first 9 months of 2025 we identified a number of buying opportunities which represented below market value buys offering the potential for capital gains well above market growth.

Understanding both the macro and micro market as well as sourcing a number of these properties off-market set our clients up for success.

Here is a timeline sample of some of these purchases.
