The benefits of being a landlord and creating a passive income for yourself are indisputable; however the untold expenses and annual body corporate fees seem to increase each year. The same can be said about the management companies of these complexes, where your annual budget restricts you into how you can run and maintain the building. The truth is, there’s no easy way to make money in this day and age, but you can add to your revenue streams if you have an embedded electricity network at your property.
An embedded network allows you to negotiate a good deal on electricity from a large supplier on behalf of all your tenants – through a single electricity meter called the gate or parent meter. Using one provider for every resident in the complex gives you better purchasing power when compared to having each tenant take care of their electricity, which means you can offer them cheaper electricity than they might find elsewhere. More importantly, you can buy power in bulk at a discount and then add a surcharge for residents so that you can make a surplus. In most cases, your tenants will still obtain cheaper electricity thanks to your embedded network, even though you’re making a small profit. However, with the recent addition of the Electricity Rules, you’ll need to hire an embedded network manager in Adelaide before 1 December 2017.
