A short promotional YouTube video (by Ian Ugarte) pitching co-living as an alternative property-investing strategy. Speakers from Invita claim co-living converts traditional five-bedroom investments (c. $600/week) into co-living setups that rent for around $1,500/week, substantially increasing investor income. They state some packaged properties require approximately $100,000 deposit to enter the market, describe target residents (young professionals, tradespeople, older singles 50+), and emphasize purpose-built floorplans, furnished micro-apartments, and end-to-end investor support.

Here at Invita, we have a fresh approach to property investing that turns traditional strategies on its head. Investors are finding it really difficult to find a property that stacks up for them financially. So co living is a little bit outside the box from your normal investment property.
We purpose build and create co living properties that as a standard investment property, a five bedroom house would rent for say, five $600 a week in the area, or whereas a co living property like this for the investor would now rent for somewhere around the $1,500 per week. So they've nearly tripled their income on a similar investment property just designed slightly different.
Some of the properties that we're packaging up at the moment, you only need $100,000 of deposit and you're into the market.
It's a new approach, but it's something that's so needed in Australia right now.
The floor plans that we create, we've refined over a long period of time. They're ideal for not only for the resident, but also for the investor in getting the best return possible. The residents that live in these sorts of properties are different to what most people think. We get young professionals, doctors, nurses, sometimes tradesmen. We actually get a lot of older singles, so over the age of 50 who are looking to downsize here. They can have their own little micro apartment within one house and all their outgoings is paid for them. It comes fully furnished. They just have to turn up and pay the rent.
Working with a team that specialises in everything from research and due diligence to design, all the way through to the back end, that is what we're providing to investors. It's clean, it's bright, it's modern. It's going to attract that quality tenant that every investor wants.
Whether you're an experienced property investor or a first homeowner, this strategy will help pave the way to financial freedom.
