While higher land value is often associated with long-term capital growth, properties with a lower land-to-asset ratio - such as those in emerging suburbs and new developments - offer unique advantages.  These properties are typically more affordable, allowing investors to enter the market with a lower upfront cost while still benefiting from rental income [...]
