Should you buy a house or a unit in Adelaide? Discover the pros and cons of each property type and which investment suits your goals best.

House or Unit — Which Builds More Wealth?

One of the biggest questions for investors is:
“Should I invest in a house or a unit?”

While many assume a house is always better, the right choice depends on your goals — cash flow vs capital growth.

  • 🏡 Houses often deliver stronger capital growth over time, but can require more upfront investment and occasional mortgage top-ups.
  • 🏢 Units generally provide steadier cash flow, with rent covering more expenses — but they tend to appreciate slower.

Finding the Right Strategy

If your goal is long-term wealth growth, a house may be your best option.
If you prefer steady returns and lower maintenance, a unit might suit better.

Every investor’s situation is unique. Let us help you build a property plan tailored to your goals.
