Property Management
Does Mirren offer property management?
No. Because our investment properties are located all over Australia, Mirren Investment Properties does not directly provide property management. However, we do shortlist the top property managers in the local area of your investment property, helping you select the right one to maximise your returns.
Can you help me find a good property manager for my investment property?

Yes. As part of our service, we recommend experienced and reputable property managers near your investment property to ensure professional tenant management and consistent rental income.

What does a property manager do?

A property manager is responsible for looking after both the tenant and the property. This includes screening tenants, conducting routine inspections, managing repairs and maintenance, collecting rent, paying property-related expenses, and ensuring funds are transferred to your account.

Finding Properties
How do you find investment properties for clients?

We have a dedicated acquisitions team with access to builders, developers, and real estate agents across Australia. This allows us to source quality investment properties that match your goals and criteria, whether you’re focused on capital growth, rental yield, or long-term portfolio building.

Do you work with real estate agents?

Yes. We collaborate with real estate agents nationwide to identify and secure strong investment opportunities for our clients.

Who are your developers?

We partner with mid- to large-sized developers who have passed our strict due diligence process. We only work with developers known for on-time completion, cost-effectiveness, and high-quality builds—ensuring the investment properties we recommend are reliable and profitable.

What makes a good investment property?

A good investment property should help you move closer to your financial goals. That means strong potential for capital growth to build wealth, positive or neutral cash flow so the property pays for itself, and tax benefits such as depreciation or negative gearing to improve your financial position.

Gearing and Tax Benefits
What is negative gearing?
Negative gearing occurs when your property’s expenses (such as loan interest, maintenance, and management fees) are higher than the rental income you receive. This creates a tax loss, which you can often offset against your personal income to reduce your taxable income and increase your refund from the Australian Tax Office (ATO).
What is positive gearing?

Positive gearing happens when your rental income is higher than your property expenses. This means your investment generates a cash flow surplus, giving you extra funds to pay down your loan or cover personal expenses.

Do positively geared properties have tax benefits?

Yes. While positive gearing generates taxable income, you may still be able to claim deductions for expenses such as loan interest, depreciation, and property management fees to reduce your taxable amount.

Getting Started in Property Investment
How do I know if I’m ready to invest in property?
At Mirren Investment Properties, we believe almost anyone can start building wealth through property. As a guideline, if you have a household income of $120,000+ and savings or equity of at least $80,000, you’re well-positioned to begin your property investment journey.
I don’t think I have enough money to start investing—what should I do?

That’s exactly what our free discovery call is for. We assess your financial position, discuss your goals, and recommend a tailored pathway to help you get started in property investment—even if you’re not ready to purchase immediately.

I started investing without a plan. Is that a problem?

Not at all. Many investors begin without a clear strategy. We’ll review your current portfolio, assess risks, and create a personalised investment property strategy to get you back on track.

Will I still have enough money to live the lifestyle I want while investing?

Yes. Your tailored property investment strategy will factor in your lifestyle expenses, ensuring you can grow your portfolio while still enjoying your day-to-day life.

Mentoring and Fees
Is a commitment fee part of the mentoring package?
Yes. A non-refundable commitment fee is required before we begin developing your personalised property investment strategy.
When do I pay the mentoring fee?
The mentoring fee is payable after your property has settled. This timing allows you to claim it as a tax deduction. If paid before settlement, it is not tax-deductible.
What does the mentoring fee cover?
The mentoring fee covers services not included under real estate legislation, such as:
 
  • Coordinating with solicitors
  • Recommending property managers
  • Organising building inspections
  • Conducting cash flow analysis
  • Assisting with insurances
  • Arranging QS (Quantity Surveyor) depreciation reports
SMSF Property Investment
Can I buy a property through my SMSF?

Yes. You can use your Self-Managed Super Fund (SMSF) to purchase an investment property in Australia.

Can I borrow money in my SMSF to buy property?

Yes. SMSFs can borrow through limited recourse borrowing arrangements (LRBAs) to acquire investment properties.

What does it cost to set up an SMSF for property investment?

The main upfront costs include obtaining financial advice and establishing the SMSF structure. Ongoing expenses depend on your accountant’s fees, as SMSFs require annual compliance and an independent auditor.

Do you recommend investing in property through an SMSF?
Yes. SMSF property investment is one of the fastest ways to grow your retirement savings while benefiting from rental income and capital growth.
Can family members use an SMSF investment property?
No. Australian superannuation laws prohibit using SMSF assets for personal or family benefit. SMSF investment properties must be for retirement purposes only.
Property Investment and Taxes
What investment property expenses are tax-deductible?
Common deductions include: 
  • Loan interest
  • Council and water rates
  • Strata fees
  • Property management fees
  • Insurance
  • Maintenance and repairs
  • Land tax
  • Depreciation
  • Advertising for tenants
  • Bank fees
  • Pest control
  • Legal costs
  • Body corporate fees
  • Gardening and landscaping 
These tax deductions can significantly improve the cash flow and profitability of your investment property. 
Risk and Market Conditions
I’m worried about going into debt—how do you reduce that risk?
Your tailored property portfolio plan will outline how to safely use debt within your means, with repayment strategies and contingency buffers built in.
What about inflation or changing market conditions?
Our strategies factor in inflation, property depreciation, and economic changes. We also provide annual reviews to adjust your plan in line with market conditions, ensuring it remains relevant.
Working With Mirren
How do I find the properties and mortgage rates in my plan?
Mirren is a full-service property investment and mortgage advisory firm. Our in-house teams source quality properties and compare mortgage rates across multiple lenders to deliver a complete investment solution.
If I attend a strategy session, do I have to work with Mirren afterwards?
No. You can take your property portfolio plan and implement it yourself. However, many clients choose to work with us long-term for ongoing support, mentoring, and portfolio growth.
