Turn unused space into income
We help Perth homeowners find out if their backyard can hold a granny flat, then connect them with builders who make it happen.
We identify unseen backyard investment opportunities
We're the matchmakers in the middle, connecting Perth homeowners with trusted modular building partners who handle design, approvals, and construction.
Straight answers, no hard sell
We asses your space and your needs and give you an honest read on whether a secondary dwelling makes sense for you.
Clear process
You'll know exactly what happens at each step, from site check to builder handover.
No ownership
We don't build, sell, or manage properties. We connect you with people who do.
Perth focused
We know Western Australian blocks, setback rules, and what works in local suburbs.
Honest calls
If your yard won't suit a secondary dwelling, we'll tell you straight rather than push it.

Building trust one project at a time
Partner builders value the homeowners we connect them with. Here is what they have shared about working together.
The homeowners Backyard Capital WA sent our way came prepared and genuinely ready to build. That meant our first call could focus on their project, not the basics.

Partner Builder
Modular building company, Perth
It is rare to get leads that are this well matched. The site details were accurate, and the owner had already thought through the important questions before we met.

Partner Builder
Secondary dwelling specialist, WA
The homeowners were clear on what they wanted and the site was genuinely suitable. That alone saved us hours of back and forth on the initial consultation.
