We base our property purchase on the 18.6 property land driven cycle
Real estate property prices exhibit an 18.6-year land-driven pattern, as illustrated in the chart below. This trend has proven be remarkably accurate over the decades. By understanding this cycle and its variations, we can strategically invest in the right markets at the right times, steering clear of the peak phases where many investors typically experience fear of missing out (FOMO).
Buying future growth not past performance
We don’t follow the market—we position ourselves ahead of it.
Between 2015 and 2018, we strategically acquired property in NSW before a major growth cycle. Assets purchased around $550K are now valued at $1.5M. As the market reached its peak, we stepped back.
In 2020, we identified Western Australia as an undervalued opportunity. Units secured for as little as $55K have since risen to around $350K. Once growth got overheated, we exited the market.
In 2021, we entered Brisbane ahead of its expansion phase. Properties acquired at $228K are now selling $700K. Again, we have paused acquisitions as the market peaks.
A Cycle-Based Investment Strategy
Many investors—and even buyers’ agents—continue purchasing in markets that have already experienced substantial growth. Historically, these markets often enter extended periods of stagnation of 10 + years.
Our approach is different.
We follow the 18-year property cycle to identify emerging markets early—before widespread demand drives prices higher.
