Alkimos Beach: a winner for investors, tenants, and the environment

The Perth residential property market is experiencing a resurgence in popularity. Investors are recognising the improving conditions for growth in Perth, which was recently named one of the world’s most liveable cities, according to The Global Liveability Index 2021. Momentum Wealth’s 2021 Property Sentiment Report revealed 48 per cent of survey respondents believed Perth was the best place to purchase an investment property, due to current market conditions and forecast price growth. 

Savvy investors wanting to capitalise on these favourable conditions should look to build a home at Alkimos Beach. On Perth’s sunny north-west coastline, just 40 minutes from the CBD, Alkimos Vista is in the local government area of Wanneroo. The Alkimos suburb is currently experiencing extremely low vacancy rates of just 0.51 per cent, representing the high demand for rental accommodation in the area, and a desirable 4.84 per cent median rental yield, according to data from Real Estate Investar reported in August 2021.

Alkimos Beach offers a range of block types, from terrace lots to more generous lots of over 600sqm. It’s in an amenity-rich location with easy access to established retail, dining, schools, and medical care, with much more still to come. Investing here will be an investment in one of Australia’s most sustainable communities, the first to be awarded with a 6 Star Green Star accreditation from the Green Building Council of Australia, representing world leadership in sustainability. Development partners Lendlease and DevelopmentWA have focussed on delivering a thoughtfully planned, innovative and sustainable coastal community of global significance that’s moving towards carbon-neutral living. 

Energy-efficient homes and eco-friendly communities are becoming increasingly popular among renters for both their environmental and bill-busting benefits. Features impacting tenants’ choices include smart design, insulation, energy-efficient hot water systems, energy-efficient heating and cooling, and solar power, according to the realestate.com.au Insights Energy Efficiency Housing Report. When building in Alkimos Beach, investors can take advantage of upfront savings on several sustainable home features. There’s a $4,000 rebate towards solar panels, energy-efficient air conditioning and energy-efficient hot water systems. And when it comes time to sell, these sustainable inclusions will contribute to the market attractiveness of the property in the future.

The benefits of living in a 6 Star Green Star community go well beyond the environment. From its rolling sand dunes to clear water and fresh air, life at Alkimos Beach is spectacular. But what you see on the surface is just the beginning. Dig a little deeper and you’ll discover a community defined by its sense of togetherness, in an environment that’s warm, inviting and inspires connection. It’s an enviable place to call home. By building an energy-efficient investment home in Alkimos Beach and leveraging the considerable sustainable living features outside the home, you will be better placed to attract and retain the best tenants. 

The advantages of living in the broader Alkimos precinct, one of the biggest and most significant coastal developments north of Perth in the last 50 years, will be quickly recognised by your future tenants. Providing rapidly growing amenity and public infrastructure, DevelopmentWA’s future Alkimos city centre, Alkimos Central, will provide residents with key services, employment, shopping, dining, recreation, and major transport links, such as Alkimos Train Station, connecting directly into Joondalup and Perth’s CBD. Once complete, roads and a series of interconnected bike and pedestrian pathways will provide excellent connectivity into Alkimos Central from Alkimos Beach. 

Investing in Alkimos Beach is a win-win for buyers, renters, and the environment.
