Mark recently helped a Keperra couple get ready for their first investment property. To achieve this, he refinanced their existing mortgage and arranged an cash out to provide a deposit towards their new property. This was achievable by using equity in their own home. With a sizeable cash contribution and a preapproval in place, they have now have the confidence to enter the market with a set budget in mind.
Now, while we are on the subject ot Keperra….
Keperra is just 14km from the Brisbane CBD. It has great appeal to families, featuring extensive parklands and convenient shopping including Woolworths, Aldi and Bunnings and its just a suburb away from Brookside Shopping Centre.Commuters will love the easy rail access to the city and, being on the north side of Brisbane, you can be in the paradise of Bribie every weekend with a minimum of effort. Keperra is also alongside the Australian Army’s Gallipoli barracks, meaning there will always be strong demand for rental property in the area, and your tenants will potentially be Australia’s finest!
This all stacks up to make Keperra a hotspot for consideration when investing. This is reflected by rising median house prices (currently $950,000) and rising median rental income (currently $635 a week).
If Keperra is on your property radar, make sure Mark at Bribie Island is on your radar. With extensive experience in property investment finance and firsthand knowledge of the market, Mark is truly your go to mortgage broker for north Brisbane.

A construction loan releases money in stages as your home is built, so repayments start small and grow, and understanding contracts, variations and extra costs before you sign helps keep the build on track.
With rates rising in 2026, fixed, variable and split loans each come with trade-offs in certainty, flexibility and cost, so the right choice depends on how you live and spend, not on guessing where rates go next.
Queensland first home buyers can currently draw on the federal 5% Deposit Scheme, a $30,000 grant for new homes and stamp duty concessions, but each has its own rules, and knowing how they fit together before you buy can make a real difference.
