Benefits of Dual Occupancy Apartments
Market Insights
Dual occupancy properties in Marrickville, Dulwich Hill, and Hurstville deliver 7.0-9.5% rental yields by renting both dwellings (e.g., 2BR house + 2BR granny flat), generating $1,100-$1,800/week combined versus $750-$1,100/week for single dwellings.
Dual occupancy zoning and development approvals have increased 40% since 2020, driven by NSW housing policy changes, affordability crisis, and investor demand for land banking opportunities in established suburbs with R2/R3 zoning.
Dual occupancy sites in gentrifying precincts (Marrickville, Arncliffe, Burwood) achieve 12-18% annual capital growth, with developers and investors paying 20-35% premiums for knock-down-rebuild or renovation-subdivision opportunities near transport and schools.
