Buyers Agent Bayswater

The Hidden Challenges of Investing in Bayswater

Bayswater’s property market presents unique opportunities and challenges for investors. The suburb’s appeal lies in its mix of established homes on generous blocks—perfect for dual occupancy developments. However, making your way through this market requires local knowledge and strategic thinking.

The intense buyer competition near the newly upgraded Bayswater Train Station means properties are selling faster than ever. Prime investment opportunities, particularly those suitable for dual dwellings within walking distance of the station precinct, often disappear before they even hit the public market. This is where our role as your buyer’s agent for Bayswater becomes crucial—we have exclusive access to off-market properties through our extensive network of trusted selling agents.

Beyond the competition, there’s the complexity of identifying properties with genuine dual occupancy potential. Many Bayswater properties might look suitable on the surface, but understanding zoning requirements, setback regulations, and the City of Bayswater’s specific planning policies requires specialist knowledge. Our team combines property acquisition knowledge with deep construction experience, having been involved in hundreds of dual occupancy developments through our exclusive partnership with Superior Granny Flats.

Understanding Bayswater’s Development Potential

Bayswater’s larger blocks, many featuring classic Californian Bungalows and Federation homes, offer excellent potential for adding a second dwelling while maintaining the property’s street appeal. Over 75% of the dwellings in Bayswater are separate houses  [Source: Australian Bureau of Statistics, 2021 Census], which shows the potential for dual occupancy development.

Our knowledge extends beyond just finding properties. We understand the specific requirements for developments near local landmarks. For properties in certain low-lying areas, we even check the council’s flood risk maps as part of our extensive due diligence process—something generic buyer’s agents often overlook.

Why Dual Occupancy Investments Work in Bayswater

The mathematics of dual occupancy investments in Bayswater are compelling. With our proven strategies, investors typically achieve rental yields of 5-6%—significantly higher than traditional single-dwelling investments.

Maximising Returns Through Strategic Development

As your dedicated Bayswater buyer’s agent, we don’t just help you buy property—we help you buy the RIGHT property for dual occupancy development. Our directors, Simon Marchese and Douglas Bray, bring over 36 years of combined experience in property development and construction. Both are registered and licensed unlimited residential builders, giving us unique insights into development feasibility that typical buyer’s agents simply don’t possess.

This construction knowledge proves invaluable when assessing Bayswater’s older housing stock. Whether it’s checking the structural integrity of a Federation home’s original timber weatherboards or evaluating the electrical systems in post-war brick-and-tile properties, we make sure you’re making an informed investment decision.
