Urban Design Solution’s investment property service emerged from Dave Russell’s interest in property investing. Dave invested in his first property in 1999 and has since built his portfolio with a mix of new and older properties, homes, town houses and units. Dave continues to study various property investing strategies and how they are affected by the quality of the design. Alongside trusted consultants, Urban Design Solutions can assist you in building your own property portfolio.

Urban Design Solutions Offers Two Investment Property Services:
Existing Property Services
Your existing home or investment property can provide you with the means for purchasing your next investment property, Urban Design Solutions will assess your home, working closely with a valuer and property managers to formulate a plan for increasing the value in your property. This could be done with a minor renovation, interior fix up or perhaps some landscaping. There are many other ways to achieve this, too numerous to mention here as it’s very much dependent on the individual property location and demographics. Your finance broker or bank manager can then show you the best way to use this equity as the basis for the funding for your new Urban Design Solutions designed investment property.
New Property Services
As a very broad generalisation it seems to us that a large portion of the construction industry focuses too much on the bottom line and not enough on providing quality design – this rings particularly true for the investment property market. Urban Design Solutions believes that a quality designed building does not cost any more than a poorly designed one. It is true that when it comes to investment, the financial return (and as such, initial costs) is very important. There are also many other factors that can contribute to a successful investment:
- A quality design provides a more pleasant living environment and can lead to higher tenant retention.
- A quality design is likely to obtain a higher value, giving you access to greater equity.
- A quality design is likely to have better resale potential.
- Quality designs tend to have a timeless value and do not age like some poorly designed buildings.
