Dual Occupancy Homes

What are they, and why are they worth considering?

Dual occupancy homes provide homeowners with financially viable options for increasing the value of their property and the possibility of receiving a passive income. As a result, they have grown in popularity in recent years, leading to a greater choice of designs and allowing budget-conscious homebuyers to access more desirable locations.

What is a Dual Occupancy Home?

Dual occupancy homes are multi-dwelling properties for shared living with two dwellings built on a single plot of land, each with its own yard, utilities, and a dedicated entrance. On the other hand, a duplex is a single residential building containing two homes that typically share a common wall and mirror one another. 

Like duplexes, dual occupancy homes enable the landowner to maximise one allotment’s earning potential. However, there are subtle differences with respect to duplexes and dual occupancy properties regarding the areas of land title flexibility, cost, council rules, regulations, and zoning. 

Despite the differences, a dual occupancy home (for example a new home inthe back yard of an existing home) and a duplex both offer the landowner the opportunity to receive a dual income. Dual occupancy properties have become a popular investment strategy in response to limited access to desirable locations, increased property prices, and growing demand for alternative living options. 

Why Consider Dual Occupancy Housing?

Dual occupancy builders in and around the greater Sydney area have noticed a sharp increase in the demand for duplexes and dual occupancy homes. These homes not only tackle the rising housing shortage and property prices but also offer financial relief and provide homeowners with investment opportunities with the additional benefits of:

Privacy:

Dual occupancy homes and duplexes appeal to tenants as they offer affordable accommodation in highly sought-after suburbs and more privacy than they would get from an apartment complex.

Lower Risk Investment Potential:

Dual occupancy and duplex homes are great investment choices that allow homeowners to maximise the value of their lot and reduce costs, e.g., mortgage payments.  

Higher Returns:

With dual occupancy and duplex properties, homeowners can collect rent on one or both properties they own. These builds increase the overall value of your property and enable you to earn income from two properties potentially.
