Why Perch exists
We’re property investors who refused to accept the status quo.
When our own portfolios need a shift (more serviceability, unlocked equity) we don’t guess. We execute. Perch exists to repeat that standard for investors across Australia who understand that timing and strategy beat trends, every time.
- Days, not months
- execution speed
- ROI-led
- every scope decision
- Synchronised
- trades, one schedule
Founders
The investors behind Perch.
Riley
A professional pilot who built his wealth through property. He started with buyer’s agents, then backed his own read of the market, forecasting where value would move and acting early. Rather than wait, he used strategic improvement to lift each asset, strengthen serviceability and open up options for the next purchase.
Blake
A former Army Logistics Officer with a sizeable portfolio and a project-management background. He brings small-team coordination and disciplined execution, and approaches every transformation as an investor first: measured, focused, data-driven.
The 14-day guarantee isn’t marketing bravado. It’s the standard we hold our own renovations to, and we put $2,000 behind it on every job.
Why most renovation advice falls short
“Renovation fixes unlock instant equity”
The common misconception
True value lies in asset selection, location and strategy
The reality
Much of the renovation conversation focuses on quick fixes and guaranteed ‘uplifts’. In our experience, that’s rarely how value is created. Asset quality, location fundamentals and market dynamics are the true drivers of growth. Renovations are a lever, not the engine, which is why we regularly tell owners not to renovate when the numbers don’t stack up.
The real cost of getting it wrong
The cost of a wrong decision isn’t just the money spent.
Money lost while you wait
1
week
$600
of rent, gone
Based on a $600/week rental sitting un-renovated for up to a year.
Lost rent
It’s the rent you don’t collect while work drags on.
Lost momentum
It’s the momentum you lose when cash is tied up in the wrong project.
Lost conviction
It’s the fatigue of second-guessing every choice, and the erosion of confidence as an investor.
We’ve felt all of these. That’s why we obsess over doing it right.
