At EQ Property, we use intelligent investing methods to achieve the best results. With a property investment portfolio in excess of $20M, Giles Hill uses the same proven strategy to grow his wealth to help you grow yours. This approach is data-driven, focusing on demand, supply and demographics to find the right location to help you meet your short and long-term property investment goals.

Your Search Strategy

Your goals and objectives, in hand with your budget and time scale, work together to find the right intelligent investment opportunity for you. Therefore, the right formula begins with a thorough discussion to reveal how to use intelligent investing to compose your search strategy. EQ Property’s investment principles meet your specific goals using current search activity matched to your unique needs, so you achieve financial success.

Rental Yield vs Growth

Often property investors focus their efforts on finding a high rental yield without considering how their investment itself can grow. Growth potential is at the heart of every EQ Property investment strategy because it allows you to realise compounding capital over the life of your investment. There are two types of growth considered for intelligent investors:

Organic House Price Growth

This is key to any investment because it ensures your investment experiences equity growth naturally over time. We can’t control the growth, as it is economic factors that impact growth, but we can position your properties to ensure that they outperform the averages

Manufactured Growth

If time and/or budget allows, you can achieve greater results by investing in improving the value of a property through renovation or development. We can control this, and EQ Property ensures that the execution of this strategy will deliver optimum growth.

Manufactured Growth combined with Organic Growth, ensures that your property’s value increases exponentially. Intelligent investing considers your goals, budget, and timing to determine which type of growth is best for you and when.

The Elements of Intelligent Investing

Giles keen understanding of growth allows him to create an intelligent investing strategy for his clients using the following elements:

Market Sentiment and Area Wealth: Consumer confidence with area wealth is key to finding a location where property values will increase. Locals with access to capital to purchase properties, consumer confidence, and limited supplies indicate property prices will outperform the averages. Therefore EQ Property looks for solid demand for homes with limited supply where locals enjoy good wages and potential for strong local economic growth using data to mitigate risk and maximise returns.


Budget: Your available funds in hand with your appetite for equity determines the type of growth we target. Organic Growth properties are ideal for lower budgets, while manufactured growth is better suited to those with higher budgets to create even more equity and in a shorter period.


Systemic Approach: EQ Property uses a three-point checklist to find the ideal property:

1. Is this an area people want to live, is there an ongoing high demand for homes from both owner-occupiers and renters? 

2. Are there limitations that restrict the supply of homes? Limited supply means more competition, pushing prices higher, faster.

3. What are the demographics? More people with higher incomes increase competition and profit potential because they have more money to bid and win the limited homes available


Using this systemic approach, EQ Property finds the suburb location, completes a property search, and then advises clients on when and how to buy properties that outperform the averages.

The Results of Intelligent Investing

Clients who adopt these strategies will ultimately hold quality property assets, located in areas that will forever be in high demand. The investments will enjoy strong house price growth and will grow into assets with an extremely favourable equity to debt ratios and strong long term rental growth.

Clients that further supplement the growth by manufacturing equity will benefit not only from the increased equity and rent, but the compounding growth of the increased value of the asset, together with the additional rental income resulting from the new dwellings.


As the new dwellings have been built off market, you basically acquire the new dwellings at wholesale prices, without paying developer fees or stamp duty and by utilising the tax depreciation allowances available on new builds the equity and cash flow positivity provides exceptional results.
