Why the large size matters (capital growth + rental appeal)

Future Owner-Occupiers Love Larger Dual-Key Homes

  • Bigger minor dwellings become liveable long-term homes - perfect for extended family, teenagers, or AirBnB use.

  • Larger layouts support premium resale values in an appreciating area like Lincoln.

Tenants Stay Longer

  • A 90m² minor dwelling is 40–50% bigger than typical minor units, making it more comfortable and functional.

  • Larger spaces attract higher-quality tenants and reduce turnover.

  • Both dwellings feel like genuine homes rather than compact units.

This property stands out significantly from standard home & income products due to its floor area and layout - a major long-term advantage for investors.
