The Host

David is a Canberra-based property investor with multiple properties in his portfolio. After switching from long-term rentals to short-term with MadeComfy, he’s seen a remarkable uplift in returns — achieving a 9% yield last year on his Brisbane property.

In his words, the difference has been night and day. Managing his investments remotely has been effortless, and MadeComfy’s end-to-end service has allowed him to maximise income without the usual stress of property management.

Having been with MadeComfy for more than five years, David says the experience has been “painless” and the results speak for themselves. His story is a genuine example of how short-term rentals can help investors unlock the true potential of their properties.
