Real Estate In Australia
Posted by admin in buy property sydney on 02 25th, 2010
About Australia
Australia is a country of so many extremes, being the sixth largest country in the world (50% larger than Europe) but having the lowest population density in the world, some 2 people per square kilometre. The country has historically strong links to Britain, with the Queen still the official monarchy of the country, although the history of Australia is very colourful. Initially populated by the aborigines, the country was used as a place to ship prisoners many years ago. Slowly but surely the aborigine influence in the country was reduced, and western style values introduced.
The country was originally made up of six separate states, although they formed a union in 1901 to create Australia. It was not until Captain James Cook arrived in 1770, that the country was actually discovered by the Europeans. A place of immense beauty, stifling hot weather conditions and one of the most laid back social attitudes in the western world. Australia really is a special place.
Many of the worlds main mineral companies have originated from Australia, as the land of “Oz” continues to supply a large majority of the worlds precious metals, etc. The economy has been fairly strong for some time, although historically there have been large peaks and troughs in line with the swing in commodity prices. This dependence has since been diluted with the country now offering a broader more diverse business scene.
While the mass media portray Australia as a vast and varied land, it is difficult to actually appreciate the size and beauty of the land. Golden white beaches give way to golden white desert land, with many towns and settlements hundreds of miles away from the hustle and bustle of main stream Australia. The famous flying doctor is still in existence, and many of the families rely on the internet and other modern day technology to actually educate their children. A vast and prosperous land, with many investment opportunities.
Property Market
As the business base of Australia has moved away from the dominance of natural resources, the economy has become much more balanced. Still growing and adjusting to the changes, the economy has been one of the better performing worldwide, since 1990. Relatively stronger than most of their European counterparts in the worldwide down turn in early 2000, the economy has thrown up a number of interesting opportunities for foreign capital.
Due to the sheer size of the country, and the extreme difference in population per kilometre, the market for property in Australia is very diverse. Historically it is the main inland cities of Melbourne and Sydney which have pushed the Australian property market ahead, although the coastal areas with strong popular tourist attractions also performing well. Quality Australian property will always hold an attraction to the foreign investor as the infrastructure in many parts of the country is weak, and sometimes nearly non-existent.
While the vast majority of Australians own their own homes, there is a strong rental market which now represents 29% of all dwellings in the country. There are very many similarities with the UK and Australian economies and style of government, although the fundamental difference is that Australia will never run out of land to develop, although the quality of local services may well diminish the further away you move from the main cities and coastal towns.
The Australian property market has been relatively strong for some time, but due to the high concentration of attractive properties in a limited number of areas, the market can show large short term fluctuations. These tend to flatten out as the slow but sure expansion of the larger cities continues, and investors also look for cheaper alternative areas in the less populated parts of the country. To spot Australia’s next growth city could throw up a very lucrative investment.
Why Invest in Australia
Australia offers a unique investment opportunity for those looking at the longer term picture, due in the main to the strong economy, increase in gross domestic product, buoyant labour market and a western style attitude to attracting outside investment.
As the business and employment markets continue to develop with opportunities in all areas of the country, we are seeing a slow shift from owner buyers to long term rental agreements. This market is expected to grow further in the coming years, and offers would be investors a quality long term income stream, together with the potential for long term capital growth.
While air travel from Britain and other parts of Europe is lengthy, there are a number of commercial routes from Europe to Australia as the country continues to retain strong ties with European counter-parts. The free market culture is proving very successful, producing a number of larger Australian corporations who have diversified all over the world – media being one of the main exports.
Add in the ease with which finance is available – often on a short term agreements, allowing maximum tax relief on loans (usually 5 – 10 years, rather than in excess of 20 years in the UK) – not to mention the attractive landscapes and scorching hot weather, it is easy to see why tourism is playing a larger and larger part in the economy of Australia.
Outlook
Historically the Australian economy has seen a number of volatile phases, although over recent years there are signs of a more gradual increase which looks set to continue. The forecast is underpinned by a stable interest rate outlook, proactive government policies to resist the threat of over heating, a thriving employment sector and stable inflation. These all add up to a great scenario for long term property value appreciation, although there will always be “hot spots” in the country, due to the vast difference in population density.
The buy to let market has been showing particular strength, and is currently offering rental returns in the region of 8% – 9%, while properties in Australia a showing capital appreciation averaging approximately 10% per annum. The government are also increasing expenditure outside of the major cities and tourist areas, which is encouraging property investors to consider looking further afield than just the high population density areas. The country has a lot to offer both the tourism industry and the overseas investor, with the Australian property market particularly attractive.

The Wash Up, Signs of Weakness, Growth Area & Debt Consolidation
Posted by admin in sydney real estate on 02 21st, 2010
As June approaches in Byron Bay, I am reminded what a brilliant place to be in autumn or spring – perfect climate with bright shiny days with warm ocean water and good surf – who could ask for anything more. It’s the place to be!
The Wash Up
Everyone involved in property in Australia thought we were about to enter a boom period in the New Year of 2008. Then, a perfect storm of a financial meltdown and interest rates nudging 10% was enough to take the shine off the market – especially the luxury end that is usually very strong here. Also the new government, elected in November 07, although they have presented nothing concrete yet, is determined to keep property prices under control. Australia has the highest housing affordability ratio in the world after London. It takes 7.5 times the average annual income to buy a median value, residential home. Some of the steps they can take are to release more land at the outskirts of the cities or cut some of the onerous taxes – some say state stamp duty tax is likely to go.
My own “Mea Culpa” is to say sorry to the few people I remember saying don’t sell to at the end of last year thinking hold your investment is the best strategy. I am reminded how dumb it is to try to guess the market – in any situation. Especially now when everything is so volatile and unpredictable!
Signs of weakness
Most capital cities experienced a slight fall in median house values over the last quarter. Sydney, Melbourne Perth and Canberra all dropped between 0.3 – 0.5%. Hobart was the worst dropping 3.4% while Adelaide the best going up 3.1%.”It’s the first widespread fall in four years,” says APM general manager Michael McNamara. “It seems to have all stopped on a 10c piece.” He also said “ there are other signs of weakness, with the number of houses for sale rising 39 per cent from 180,000 in February last year to 247,000 in February this year.”
Growth area
One scenario where there is growth in the real estate market is in co-ownership purchasing. This is where one person, on their own, can only afford a dump. But if they team up with a friend or relative they can share something halfway decent. The concept now even has its own website – does anything not have a website? You can go online and find a partner to help with the deposit and the mortgage – or as in most cases where friends or relatives join together – you can access practical and legal advice.
Debt Consolidation
If it is to be a time of constriction it may be best to consolidate debt. Any loss making investment is probably best discarded. Check your present loan to see if you are getting the best deal. If you have been thrashing the plastic and the credit cards are maxed – they often run at an interest rate 0f 18 – 20%, more than double that of the home loan. If it could be some time before you get a chance to clear those debts it may be advisable to consolidate it into the home loan. Please email or phone up for a free consultation to make sure you are in the best deal.
Present Mood
Even real estate agents are admitting it is very slow out there. They are usually so consistently ebullient and up beat it is hard to know the truth. Most of them must do these marketing/manifesting/positive thinking affirmations its hard to get to the real story. There are buyers out there but they are picky and price sensitive and predominately in the owner-occupier market. Some astute investors I know think that this is a market for bargain hunting and as rates stay high and buyers stay away many people will begin to sell for under market value. For the hearty amongst you take note of mythical investor Warren Buffet who advises: “Get greedy when everyone else is fearful and fearful when everyone else is greedy!”

Trying to Solve Housing Affordability
Reading through all of the bureau-speak I have finally been able to make sense of the proposed government schemes. The grandly named First Home Saver Account Scheme offers young people trying to enter the market a bonus of up to $850 to encourage them to save for a home. It also offers some tax breaks on these savings that is still unclear to me.
The other initiative to reduce housing costs is the Housing Affordability Fund. This fund provides $500 million over five years to remove red tape and solve other administrative problems with providing new housing. It misses the point as the bottlenecks are at local government level, while state and federal government bureaucrats on junkets and fact-finding missions will probably spend the money. Hopefully they will come up with something worthwhile after five years at the trough.

Next October I intend to rent a property in Sydney. I need a good real estate office.?
Posted by admin in sydney property rent on 02 19th, 2010
You have given minimal info but here’s my suggestion anyway….
Go to Sydney, particularly to your preferred area and personally visit the local R/E offices. You will find that some seem prosperous and others just plain "off" . If you get good vibes from any, talk to them and see what they can offer. Then get a second opinion, and a third etc until you get "just the right one" .
Keep your mind open, first impressions whilst good are not always the best. If you have not got good instincts, take a friend with you, preferrably female, as they generally have the best instincts.
