Meet Jean
Jean came to Silvertail in 2021 with one clear goal: to start building wealth through property investment. With no prior development experience but a willingness to take action, Jean wanted more than just a passive purchase—he wanted a long-term strategy.
Working closely with our team, Jean turned a single investment into a multi-property portfolio, using value-adding strategies like subdivision, construction, and strategic reinvestment. The result? Three high-performing properties, six figures in equity, and nearly $100,000 in rental income—all in under three years.
How We Helped Jean Scale Rapidly
Got in early and added value fast
In 2021, Jean bought his first investment property on Wentworth Drive, Ingle Farm for $350,000. We helped him identify its potential for subdivision and guided him through the planning and approval process. While renting it out during year one, we worked behind the scenes to unlock its full development potential.
Used momentum to acquire again
Just months later, Jean purchased a second property on Jennifer Crescent, Para Hills for $570,000. With rental income of $590 per week and a 5.5% yield, this became a solid holding while the Ingle Farm project progressed.
Executed a high-growth development
After demolishing the original dwelling, Jean built two new homes on the subdivided Ingle Farm site. The total construction cost was $700,000. Each of the new homes is now valued at $750,000 and rents for $600 per week.
Created a high-income portfolio
Today, Jean owns three properties across Adelaide that generate $93,080 in rental income annually. With strategic rental increases and low vacancy, his portfolio is now a powerful passive income machine.
