Investment Analysis
In recent years, Christchurch has undergone a remarkable transformation, driven by extensive reconstruction efforts following the earthquakes of 2010 and 2011. This revitalisation has sparked a surge in construction and infrastructure projects, creating numerous investment opportunities within the residential property market.
56-60 Grafton Street in Waltham offers a unique investment opportunity. It boasts gross yields of up to 5.2% and is priced between $549,000 and $599,000 for a two-bedroom property showcasing a development under the $600,000 range.
This small development, which consists of just eight units, sees weekly rent ranging from $530 to $570, depending on the specific unit, making it an affordable option for tenants in the area. Being a city fringe suburb, this will appeal to professionals working in or around the city.
As of April 2024, the median house price in Waltham is $546,000, compared to $695,000 in Christchurch and $805,000 across New Zealand. Securing a property below the city median price in Waltham presents a promising growth opportunity. Notably, Waltham’s median price is currently just $6,000 under the suburb’s peak of $550,000 in 2022, indicating a recovery to less than 1% below its highest value. This trend demonstrates the suburb’s substantial potential for continued growth.
This development is due to be completed around the first quarter of 2025. This creates an opportunity to purchase the development at a lower price while allowing the interest rates to decrease by settlement. Buying off the plan can present a chance to make capital gains over the build when prices slowly recover and increase.
