Duplex

A duplex offers two independent dwellings on a single block, making it attractive to investors, multi-generational families and buyers seeking strong rental returns. Each side may be individually titled or held under a single title, which affects financing, resale value and legal rights. Duplexes often have lower maintenance than detached homes while still providing more privacy and space than apartments or townhouses. They are also popular among developers because they can unlock additional value through subdivision or dual-occupancy approvals. Buyers typically assess privacy between the two dwellings, outdoor areas, parking, noise transfer and the overall layout. When selling a duplex, both the building and the land size play a key role in determining the price. A knowledgeable agent understands how to present these features strategically and appeal to the right buyer groups.

Practical Example

You decide to sell one side of your duplex which has its own private driveway and courtyard. Your agent reviews recent sales in the area and highlights that duplexes are highly sought after due to limited supply. Before listing, they recommend small improvements such as updated lighting and refreshed landscaping to improve presentation. At the first open home, downsizers, small families and investors all take interest because the property offers low maintenance living with the benefits of a standalone address. Two buyers request contracts and ask about noise privacy and strata or titling arrangements. After competitive negotiations, your agent secures a strong sale price that exceeds comparable townhouse and unit sales in the suburb.
