Discover how Granny Flat investments are helping clients achieve huge yields and build long-term wealth.
Amidst the current housing crisis, where construction timelines have blown out and access to finance is challenging, hearing of the wins by some are even more precious than ever before. At BCC Homes
there's nothing we love more than our clients reaching out to tell us how happy they are with their new home, it makes us feel grateful for the amazing clients we seem to attract but also validates that we really are helping people achieve their goals – either building their dream homes or providing smart investment outcomes.
Each client has a different objective, and it is our job to work out the desires and concerns of our clients right from the first phone call, making sure we understand their needs, taste, budget and what their intended usage is. When we collaborate effectively, from concept to handover, we are creating Granny Flats that fit perfectly into the lives of our clients.
We’ve had a few clients who have decided to build a Granny Flat for investment purposes and have been floored by their incredible rental yields! This shows that the quality, design and delivery of each home is exceeding our clients' expectations!
As mentioned, we love to hear the success stories, and we’ve had two amazing examples from interstate investors share their outcome with us recently and the following yields that have been achieved:
The first client who recently built a 60m2 2 bed/1 bath Granny Flat in a central Gold Coast location has achieved a 17.5% rental yield, and
Another client who built a 74m2 2 bed/1 bath Granny Flat near the beach enjoy just over 20% yield.
When we hear that some of our completed projects are attracting higher rents than some traditional housing (e.g. 4 bed/2bath) in the same neighbourhood, this indicates that our level of finish and inclusions is attractive to tenants and is creating value in the marketplace.
A high rental yield is so important for investors, it shows that the property is a sound investment and actively contributing to the client's future wealth. It thrills us to know that we are helping our clients achieve their financial goals!
In addition to the high rental yield, our clients aren’t paying agent’s fees, stamp duty, nor are they competing with other buyers in the current ‘sellers' market’ – they are making use of the land they already own. The investment is small, and the gains are almost historic!
There are tenants out there who see value in our quality and workmanship, and we all know there is an incredible shortage of decent rentals in the SEQ market. We have proven to our clients that we can help them create, or further develop, their property portfolio with the humble Granny Flat.
Don’t waste your time getting into the market. If you want to invest, and a high rental yield is your strategy, look no further than building your Granny Flat with BCC Homes. Call us now on 1300 109 329 to see how we can help.

Founded by husband-and-wife team Sam and Krystle Barnett, BCC Homes is a family-owned company specialising in custom Granny Flats and renovations across South-East Queensland. After more than a decade in the construction industry, including over 1,200 homes built under Sam’s licence, we recognised a gap in the market, and an opportunity to build something that truly made a difference in people’s lives. That moment came when we met a homeowner who had been taken advantage of by another builder. Rather than walk away, Sam was driven to help. From that experience, BCC Homes was born: a business built on trust, service, and the belief that everyone deserves a quality home delivered with integrity. Our mission is clear: deliver exceptional, fairly priced housing solutions, built to the highest standards. Our vision: to become a leader in Granny Flat construction by aligning with trades, suppliers, and clients who share the commitment to quality and community. Granny Flats are so much more than just additional dwellings, they’re meaningful extensions of the home, spaces where memories are made, and family connections are deepened. Whether it becomes a first home for adult children or a forever home for parents or grandparents, a Granny Flat carries real emotional weight. That’s why we approach every build with the same level of care, respect, and thoughtfulness it deserves. Because these homes are built in the heart of family backyards, the relationship between builder and client must be strong, and rightly so. From day one, we’re hands-on, attending site inspections together, answering questions personally, and designing tailored solutions to suit each family’s unique needs. We don’t just build spaces, we create environments that feel like home from the moment you step inside. Behind the scenes, our systems are sharp and refined. From efficient qualification processes and transparent contracts to weekly team meetings and digital job tracking, every project is carefully managed to ensure smooth delivery and happy clients. But what truly sets BCC Homes apart is how we make people feel. Our clients aren’t treated like a number, they’re welcomed like family. Whether it’s a handshake or a heart-to-heart conversation on-site, the BCC experience is built around connection, respect, and results. Today, our growing referral base is a testament to that approach. With a trusted team of highly skilled trades and a clear passion for the craft, we continue to help everyday families unlock the potential of their property, one Granny Flat at a time.
