Interstate Jack buys off market

Smart Investing in Kedron: A Strategic Purchase for Long-Term Growth

The Brief

Jack, an interstate investor based in Sydney, approached Property Pursuit Advisors with a clear brief: secure a low-maintenance property in Brisbane with strong capital growth prospects, within a $1.1M budget. His ideal investment would be in a suburb with a proven track record and future upside, offering potential for cosmetic improvements to enhance both capital value and rental return.

  • ✅ Off-market purchase in the tightly held Padua school precinct
  • ✅ From search to contract in just 12 days
  • ✅ Cosmetic value-add opportunity with solid rental potential

Our Process

We started with comprehensive education to help Jack understand the Brisbane market nuances and narrow in on the suburbs that aligned with his goals. Jack made a weekend trip to Brisbane, giving us the perfect opportunity to show him a selection of properties—both on and off-market—across Brisbane’s sought-after northern suburbs.

Over the course of a Friday afternoon and Saturday morning, we inspected a diverse range of properties, nearly 50% of which were off-market. This highly efficient tour gave Jack a well-rounded understanding of his options, complete with pros and cons, renovation scope, and growth trajectories.

Thanks to our strong relationships and intimate local knowledge, we identified a standout opportunity: a well-kept 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom home on a north-facing 405m² block in the heart of Kedron’s Padua school precinct—a location with enduring appeal to families and tenants alike.

Having previously purchased this property for another client years ago, we had deep insights into its value, performance, and future potential. We secured it off-market at a fair price before it ever reached the broader market.


The Result

From onboarding to contract formation, the entire search took just 12 days. This was only possible because of the groundwork we laid upfront—market education, brief refinement, and on-the-ground property tours with our team (Nathan and Nicola) who were able to unpack the pros, cons, and strategy behind each option in detail.

Now, Jack is working with our trusted property management partners, to complete a few smart cosmetic updates that will increase rental appeal and returns. He’s also exploring longer-term improvements, like adding a rear deck to further boost value.

“I decided to use Property Pursuit to purchase an investment property in Brisbane. Not being from Brisbane, it made sense to use a buyer’s agent. Nicola and Nathan spent a couple of days driving us around looking at different locations and properties. I ended up buying one of the properties we visited. It happened much quicker than I expected.”
