Development Insight - Ep 61

Sam and Ryan unpack Henderson’s Yield Acceleration Method (YAM) and why secondary dwellings have become such a powerful property investment strategy. They discuss how adding a high-quality secondary dwelling can increase rental income, reduce holding costs and help investors stay in the market longer. Sam breaks down site selection, DA vs CDC approvals, funding requirements, valuations and why location and design matter. They also explore single vs double-storey secondary dwellings and how YAM can provide a lower-risk introduction to property development before progressing into larger projects like duplexes and townhouses.
