Dual Key Home Designs
Dual Key Home Designs offer a flexible and lucrative investment opportunity, especially in the current Perth property market. With the ongoing housing affordability crisis expected to persist for at least three more years, dual key homes provide an innovative solution that can generate significant rental income. These designs are perfect for investors looking to maximize returns by renting out individual bedrooms, potentially earning up to $109,000 annually.
What is a Dual Key Home Design?
Dual key home designs are unique properties that feature two separate living areas under one roof. This allows homeowners to live in one section of the property while renting out the other, OR rent both sections separately to different tenants. This flexibility makes dual key homes a popular choice for investors looking to diversify their income streams.

The Benefits of Dual Key Homes in the Perth Market
In Perth’s current property market, dual key homes are particularly advantageous. With rental demand at an all-time high due to the housing crisis, these homes can generate substantial income. Not only can you rent by the area (Family/Kitchen/Bedrooms) but you can also rent out individual bedrooms. At present investors can achieve a rental yield that surpasses traditional property investments that we have not seen in the past.

High Rental Income Potential: Renting by the Bedroom
One of the most compelling aspects of dual key home designs is the ability to rent out individual bedrooms. In today’s Perth market, renting by the bedroom is becoming increasingly common, with each room fetching around $350 per week*. For a dual key home with up to six bedrooms, this can translate into a weekly rental income of $2,100, or an impressive annual income of $109,000.
