What could
it earn?
Pick your suburb and model, and we'll show you the numbers.
Estimates only, shown as ranges - actual rent depends on your home, street and market conditions; check current local listings. Weekly figures use median rents for your postcode (NSW Government rental bond data, to March 2026), adjusted for a secondary dwelling. Gross yield is on estimated total cost - the home plus typical site works - on land you already own, before expenses. A typical Sydney house returns about 2.6% gross on its price. Not financial advice.

Want a stronger foundation? Go with a concrete one.
Most prefab granny flats are stuck on steel stumps. With Rivela you can choose a permanent, steel-reinforced concrete slab instead - the same foundation as a house, for a home that's built to last.

Poured and engineered to your block's soil class.
