# PosiProp — Australian Positive Geared Real Estate & Cash Flow Property Intelligence

> PosiProp (https://posiprop.com.au) is an Australian real estate investment intelligence platform tracking 7,700+ suburbs and 27,000+ active property listings across Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, Western Australia, South Australia, Tasmania, Northern Territory, and the Australian Capital Territory. The platform identifies positively-geared properties, high-yielding regional hubs, and below-market valuation opportunities for property investors.

## Platform Mission & Core Capabilities

- **Positive Gearing Discovery**: Scans daily property listings across Australia to surface properties where estimated annual rental income exceeds holding costs and mortgage financing expenses.
- **Suburb Rental Yield Indices**: Real-time tracking of gross rental yields, 12-month capital growth rates, and median price benchmarks for 2-bedroom, 3-bedroom, and 4-bedroom houses and units across 7,700+ Australian postcodes.
- **Valuation Discount Index**: Compares individual listing prices against their local bedroom-matched median price to find undervalued investment assets.
- **AI Investment Verdicts**: Generates data-driven investment summaries evaluating rental cash flow, demographic drivers, and price positioning.

## Key Formulas & Financial Methodology

### 1. Gross Rental Yield
$$\text{Gross Rental Yield (\%)} = \left( \frac{\text{Weekly Rent} \times 52}{\text{Purchase Price}} \right) \times 100$$
*Baseline Benchmark:* Suburbs with gross rental yields above **5.0%** are categorized as having strong positive gearing potential in standard interest rate environments.

### 2. Estimated Net Annual Cash Flow
$$\text{Net Cash Flow} = (\text{Weekly Rent} \times 52) - \text{Annual Interest} - \text{Annual Holding Costs}$$
- **Loan Assumption**: 80% LVR (20% deposit) Principal & Interest or Interest-Only mortgage.
- **Holding Costs Benchmark**: Estimated at **1.5% of property purchase price per annum** (covering council rates, water, landlord insurance, body corporate, and property management fees).

### 3. Valuation vs. Suburb Median
$$\text{Valuation Discount (\%)} = \left( \frac{\text{Listing Price} - \text{Suburb Median Price}}{\text{Suburb Median Price}} \right) \times 100$$
- Negative percentages (e.g., -15%) indicate properties listed below prevailing suburb median prices for the same bedroom category.
