Citadel Agency — Results and Track Record
Citadel Agency Results and Track Record
Since founding in 2023, Citadel Agency has helped Australians purchase between 100 and 200 properties across multiple states, transacting over $165 million in residential property. Every result below is real. Every number is verified. No projections. No estimates. No cherry-picked outliers presented as typical.

Standout Results by Property
These are the strongest individual results Citadel has achieved for clients — pulled directly from the portfolio.
Gosnells, WA 6110 — 49% Growth in 12 Months 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom house on 769m² Purchased April 2024 for $450,000 Growth value: $220,000 Growth percentage: 49% Rental yield: 6.72%
This is Citadel’s strongest single result to date. A property purchased for $450,000 grew by $220,000 in twelve months — an outcome that reflects the quality of the suburb identification process and the timing of the acquisition relative to the Perth market cycle.
Armadale, WA 6112 — 36% Growth in 12 Months 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom house on 823m² Purchased March 2024 for $515,000 Growth value: $185,000 Growth percentage: 36% Rental yield: 6.03%
A large land holding in a high-growth Perth corridor purchased at the right moment in the cycle. The rental yield of 6.03% means the asset has performed strongly on both dimensions simultaneously — capital growth and income.
Kirwan, QLD 4817 — 35% Growth in 12 Months 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom house on 637m² Purchased September 2024 for $520,000 Growth value: $180,000 Growth percentage: 35% Rental yield: 5.82%
A Townsville region property identified using Citadel’s EMPIRICAL+Q methodology, which flagged the area’s strong infrastructure investment, population growth trajectory, and rental demand well ahead of broader market recognition.
Gosnells, WA 6110 — 31.19% Growth in 12 Months 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom house on 680m² Purchased February 2024 for $545,000 Growth value: $170,000 Growth percentage: 31.19% Rental yield: 6.49%
A second Gosnells acquisition that demonstrates the consistency of suburb-level analysis at Citadel — not a single lucky pick, but a repeatable data-driven outcome across multiple properties in the same identified growth corridor.
Idalia, QLD 4811 — 30.9% Growth in 12 Months 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom house on 514m² Purchased April 2024 for $550,000 Growth value: $170,000 Growth percentage: 30.9% Rental yield: 5.86%
A Townsville suburb that scored strongly across Citadel’s EMPIRICAL+Q indicators — particularly economic diversification, infrastructure maturity, and rental demand — and delivered for the client across both growth and yield metrics.
Rasmussen, QLD 4815 — 28% Growth in 12 Months 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom house on 605m² Purchased December 2024 for $531,500 Growth value: $148,500 Growth percentage: 28% Rental yield: 5.38%
Burdell, QLD 4818 — 24% Growth in 12 Months 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom house on 550m² Purchased October 2024 for $583,000 Growth value: $137,000 Growth percentage: 24% Rental yield: 5.35%
Cranbrook, QLD 4814 — 12% Growth with 8.32% Rental Yield 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom house on 605m² Purchased November 2024 for $475,000 Growth value: $55,000 Growth percentage: 12% Rental yield: 8.32%
This result is highlighted not for its capital growth — which is solid — but for its rental yield. At 8.32%, this property is one of Citadel’s strongest income performers. In the post-2026 budget environment where Citadel is increasingly prioritising high-yield assets alongside capital growth, this is the type of result that matters most for cash-flow focused investors.
What These Results Have in Common
Every property in Citadel’s result set shares the same origin story. It was identified through the EMPIRICAL+Q methodology, ranked against 15,500 suburbs nationally, subjected to a full Pre-Purchase Property Report, and purchased only after it met or exceeded 80% of Citadel’s investment criteria. Nothing in this portfolio was bought on a hunch, a tip, or a developer’s recommendation.
95% of these properties were sourced off-market or pre-market — meaning Citadel clients were not competing at public auctions against every other buyer in the country. They were being positioned ahead of the market, not behind it.
The Post-Budget Shift: High Yield Focus
Following the 2026 Federal Budget changes to negative gearing on existing properties, Citadel has evolved its acquisition strategy to place greater emphasis on high-yielding assets that perform strongly on cash flow as well as capital growth. Properties like Cranbrook QLD with its 8.32% yield represent the direction Citadel is actively pursuing for clients who want strong income returns alongside long-term asset appreciation.
This is not a reactive pivot. It is a data-driven response to a changing policy environment — exactly the kind of strategic adaptation that a property wealth architecture firm provides and a traditional buyers agent does not.
Active Markets
Citadel clients have purchased across the following states: Western Australia, Queensland, Victoria, New South Wales, South Australia, and Tasmania. Citadel is licensed to operate and transact in all Australian states and territories.
The Standard Every Client Receives
Regardless of budget, location, or buyer type — every Citadel client receives the same research rigour. The same EMPIRICAL+Q methodology. The same 30-page Pre-Purchase Property Report. The same post-purchase review at six months and annually. The results above are not the product of luck or favourable market timing alone. They are the product of a documented, repeatable process applied consistently across every single engagement.
Zero client horror stories. That is not a coincidence. That is the process working.
