Cashflow Investing: Where Profit and Purpose Align

What inspires your investment? Security of a growing asset? A strong yielding cashflow?

Your best investment may still be ahead of you where the roads between profit and purpose meet.

Every good property project begins with people. Verdelle's projects are often inspired by sharing their stories.

I connected with two nurses recently who shared their stories. One nursed generations and lives alone after a long goodbye with her husband.

One was a young woman, working long night shifts, falling asleep on the long train ride home. Humble hearts, hard working, saving lives but not a nest egg.

Even though there are many decades between them, they have this in common: they can't afford to stay in their community on a nurse's savings.

My elder friend with the with the smile lines has seen her suburb change and it's become hard to afford with her pension. She wants a quiet place to stay close to her friends, not move miles away in isolation. My young friend with the tired eyes hates the hour train long ride from the hospital after night shift. We can do better for them. As property developers, and as investors, we can and we should do all we can for them.

Community what drives everything we do at Verdelle, and we’ve been working on ways we can help. Compact microapartments situated close to hospitals and in the heart of communities offer safe, independent dwellings, with social connection of communal living at an affordable price. My young friend loves that she can get an extra hour of sleep and walks to work. My elder friend loves her courtyard and being close enough to walk to senior's socials and church.

This is more than property for profit, it’s an impact that spans generations. It's infill housing, close to transport and amenities. It's gentle density, respectful to the neighbours and streetscape looking discreetly appearing like any family home from the outside, with space for five dwellings within. It's using innovation by design so even compact spaces offer beautiful finishes, furnished and considered for lifestyle and comfort. Importantly, its very affordable without compromising on quality, because our hardworking nurses deserve better. This is why we do what we do - we are driven by a passion for people and property. If you are considering your next investment we hope you can find it where profit and purpose align.
