Duplex investing can deliver an incredible ROI when the process behind the investment is done right.
At RPG, we’ve spent more than 30 years refining that process step by step. The result is The RPG Duplex Investment Roadmap, designed to take an investor from finance and land through to planning, construction and a tenant-ready investment.
In this video, RPG Customer Success Consultant Jo Robertson walks through the journey and explains what happens at each stage.
One Builder From Start to Finish
The first thing to understand about the RPG process: we are the builder.
That means RPG is your single source throughout the development.
We take you from finance and land through to planning, construction and handover, and we are accountable for the entire process. There is no middleman who then needs to chase another builder.
Because RPG has been refining this process for more than 30 years and focuses specifically on regional NSW, the complete journey can usually move from start to finish in around 8–10 months.
Start With Finance Pre-Approval
Before looking for the right investment, one of the smartest first steps is getting your finance pre-approved.
This gives you clarity around your borrowing capacity and puts you in a position to move quickly when the right opportunity becomes available.
If required, RPG can also connect you with a broker partner who specialises in duplex investments.
Stage 1: Acquisitions and Site Assessment
If you don’t already have land, RPG can actively source a suitable block using our knowledge of regional NSW, with a focus on growth potential and rental yield.
If you already have land, we can work with your existing block.
From there, our team completes the site assessment while our drafting and estimating specialists work towards providing a fixed price within 10 days, and often sooner.
Stage 2: A Fixed, Turn-Key Price
This is one of the most important stages for an investor.
Rather than starting with an indicative price that changes as the development progresses, RPG provides a price that is fixed, all-inclusive and locked from the start.
It is also structured to align with your finance pre-approval, so you know where you stand before progressing further.
Stages 3–5: Finance, Pre-Planning and CDC Approval
With your fixed price established, you can secure finance from a much clearer position.
Once the land has been exchanged and the preliminary agreement is in place, RPG’s in-house specialists prepare the required documentation so approvals can be lodged after settlement.
We then use the streamlined CDC pathway rather than the slower council DA process.
RPG’s CDC specialty forms part of the fixed-price turn-key package, rather than becoming another separate cost later in the project.
RPG’s existing website similarly positions fixed pricing, CDC-friendly designs and an end-to-end model as central parts of its investment process.
Stage 6: Construction to Turn-Key Handover
Once construction begins, three decades of experience come together.
Because RPG provides a fully turn-key service, we manage the development through to completion, including items such as landscaping, fencing, driveways and final finishes.
At handover, the aim is simple:
You receive the keys to a tenant-ready duplex investment.
That is The RPG Duplex Investment Roadmap.
It is a process RPG has refined over more than 30 years and continues to improve, giving investors one accountable builder and a clear pathway from finance through to handover.
