Get in touch

Outhaus is an architect-designed modular housing brand. We build Class 1a compliant homes off-site in South East Queensland and deliver across Australia. When you refer a client, we take care of everything from design and approvals to delivery and installation.

Built for property professionals
and commercial operators

Whether you represent buyers, manage portfolios, arrange finance, or need workforce accommodation, there is a straightforward commercial arrangement for you.

Buyer's Agents

Land with dual-occupancy potential is worth more when your client knows exactly what they can put on it and what it will cost. Introduce your clients to Outhaus early and show them what the block can do before they sign. A secondary dwelling conversation at the search stage adds conviction to the purchase decision and a clear path to dual income.

Mortgage Brokers and Financial Planners

A secondary dwelling on an existing property increases rental yield and can improve a client's borrowing position by demonstrating additional income. When your client asks how to get more from their land, a modular granny flat is one of the most capital-efficient answers available. Outhaus gives you a credible referral and a clear number to work with.

Property Managers

You know your landlords' portfolios better than anyone. When a client owns a property with a large or underutilised block, a secondary dwelling is one of the few improvements that adds genuine rental income rather than just maintenance cost. A new dwelling managed alongside the existing property means more income for your client and an expanded portfolio for you to manage. Outhaus handles the build entirely, so you do not need to coordinate the project.

Real Estate Agents

Your vendors want to maximise sale price. Your buyers want to know what they can build. When a property has land, the secondary dwelling question comes up constantly. Outhaus gives you a credible answer and a concrete next step for both sides of the transaction.

Why modular granny flats are the strongest yield play on existing land

For property investors and their advisors, a granny flat or secondary dwelling on an eligible block is one of the highest-return improvements available on an existing asset. Unlike renovations that rarely recover full cost on resale, a secondary dwelling adds a separate, income-producing structure that improves yield, improves serviceability for future finance, and increases the total value of the property.

Yield uplift without land cost

The land is already owned. The secondary dwelling adds rental income on an asset that carries no additional land cost. A typical 1-bedroom Outhaus module renting at $280 per week adds over $14,500 annually to a property's gross yield. On a $150,000 build cost, that is a gross yield of around 9-10%.

Faster than traditional construction

Conventional granny flat builds typically take 9-18 months from DA to handover. Outhaus modules are manufactured off-site, delivered complete, and installed in a fraction of that time. Investors reach rental income faster, reducing the holding cost gap between build and cash flow.

Class 1a compliant, permanent dwelling

Every Outhaus module is a fully engineered, Class 1a residential building, not a transportable or portable structure. It is assessable as a permanent secondary dwelling for valuation, depreciation, and finance purposes. Council-approved, insured, and registered on title.

Who is a good candidate

Investors with acreage, rural lifestyle blocks, or suburban lots over 600m2 in compatible zones. Properties where DA approval for a secondary dwelling is likely, based on lot size, zoning, and setback requirements. Regional QLD and northern NSW properties benefit from Outhaus's full-service delivery capability.

Depreciation and tax advantages

A new modular dwelling qualifies for maximum depreciation under a tax depreciation schedule. Investors can claim the full structure and all fit-out from day one. This significantly improves after-tax cash flow in the early years of the investment.

One supplier, end to end

Outhaus manages design, engineering, DA documentation, build, delivery, and installation. For investment advisors, this means a single point of contact for your client rather than coordinating an architect, builder, engineer, and certifier separately. We handle the complexity. Your client collects the income.
