Ray White Coastal Living Summer Edition (3)

C OA STA LL VINGSUMMER EDITION

So why is it our turn when the southern markets are tailing off. The answer is of course – “this is the traditional trend“, it is what always happens.

Since 2012 and the following 3 years many parts of NSW and Victoria, Sydney and Melbourne in particular saw huge gains in real estate values. Many, many people made lots of money from property. But alas the tide has turned in those areas with prices now beginning to tail off. But the prospect of making money from Real estate is now in their DNA, buyers are now looking elsewhere to see where they can invest their property dollars. And of course the South East corner of QLD is the next logical step.Brisbane had a great 2015 with rising property prices and new developments bringing life to the city. The Gold Coast is on their investment path to the 2018 Commonwealth Games with their oversupply of stock beginning to evaporate.

But for us lucky ones who enjoy the Sunshine Coast Lifestyle our turn is here,we attract a different type of buyer, the more stable buyer, the more cautious investor and in our opinion the more ‘thoughtful’ developer.

From all of us at Ray White on the Sunshine Coast please enjoy a terrifi c 2016 and enjoy the ride.

Brett GrahamDirector Ray White

It doesn’t matter where you are on the Sunshine Coast today there is a buzz of excitement with what 2016 is going to deliver to us in the area of property.

It has been a long time since we felt a surge of November and December buyer interests both local and from interstate like we did at the end of 2015. The phones were ringing; the email enquiry was up, visitors to open house increasing and auction attendances better than ever.

It’s Our Turn

We moved to the area when our son was only 1 and he started attending Buderim Meadows Early Learning Centre (highly recommend- Tina is still the owner 18 years on and plenty of familiar faces in the staff!). Our son commenced primary school at Mountain Creek State School moving on to make a seamless transition to Mountain Creek High School where he completed Grade 12 and has now moved on to Sunshine Coast University which is only 5 minutes away. Mountain Creek High School is one of the best schools in Australia, rated number 2 in the world in previous years. MCSHS caters for all interests, with an International Baccalaureate program and Zenith for academics, a wide range of sporting development programs including Rugby League School of Excellence Program, Volleyball, AFL and Basketball and a Creative Industries Academy. They also work closely with the Tafe which is located just next door.

I love to see the kids out playing a game of street cricket, safely learning to ride their bikes or scooters or a game of footy in one of the parks- a great, safe lifestyle where the

rule can be when the kids are out playing all weekend, to come home when the streetlights come on- you always know which house the neighbourhood kids are at- the bikes on the front lawn give it away.

The community (and competitive!) spirit shines especially at Christmas, with an amazing display of Christmas lights on Mountain Creek Road and Rainsford Place and many a neighbourly street Christmas party!

Only 5 minutes to Mooloolaba, 10 minutes to Sunshine Plaza or Kawana Shopping Centre, a Woolworths complex on your doorstep and tennis, gym, swimming centre and dance academy all in our area- I know I sound biased, but I am! I have loved raising my family in Mountain Creek and hope you enjoy the community as much as we do.

Shopping, restaurants and medical facilities are all here but despite its size Buderim is where everybody stops to say hello and families that have been here only a short time feel like they have lived here forever and can think of no other place to live.

Quiet, peaceful community based lifestyle for all. That’s why I live here and will for a long time to come. The relaxed village vibe and a vibrant community spirit is the reason a British Airways Survey a few years ago, Buderim was named third after Paris and Aspen as the most desirable place to live in the world.

Buderim is no longer just for retirees. In fact 71%* of the locals are under 55 years old. The new Buderimite is most likely an urban professional for whom the schools are important but the lifestyle is paramount. You will fi nd these locals any morning in one of the many coffee shops, savouring the start of the day after a walk around the Mountain Top and before they drop the kids off at one of the exceptional schools that dot the foothills of Buderim.

In coastal markets, the warmer seasons of Summer and Spring bring with them an infl ux of southern tourists to enjoy our surf breaks and their holiday homes. Clever sellers see this as a time to present their properties to the market and we have already seen a new smorgasbord of property enter the newspapers as sellers hope that buyers fresh with their new year’s resolution in mind are soon to walk through their front door. The month of February will be the largest around the county for Auctions as campaigns commencing in January come to a close, if you are a buyer then this is a market not to miss.

So what will 2016 bring? History tells us that we on the Sunshine Coast are the last to see any market shift, both on the way down and the way up! We call it the east coast swing, as if a wave started in Melbourne and sweeps north up the coast. So while the southern markets of Sydney have reportedly peaked and are now cooling, we still have

some way to go. A key market to watch will be Brisbane. Locally, we seem to be 12 months behind our Queensland neighbours and with their market still rising, sellers will continue to be the winners in 2016.

So while many of us head out this summer in search of a new gym membership to work off that Christmas feast or purchase that new home, it’s my view that it’s best to do it quick. This summer will offer buyers the best selection of property until potentially spring. Just like any growing market, it’s best to be in it then riding the wave and paying a premium later in the year.

Dan Sowden Director | Auctioneer

With the excitement of tinsel, turkey and trifl e all but a distant memory, we are already well into 2016 and the opinions are out about what our property market will bring in the coming 12 months.

The changing face of Buderim Real Estate

Smart innovative builders like Peter Collyns

from Majestic Developments and others

have taken the Buderim property market to

a new level with smart infi ll developments

servicing the needs of the ‘new’ Buderim

buyer. Gone are the big allotments and in

are easy care, modern living and room for

the visiting family. From my selling point of

view when taking property to the market the

INVESTMENTSTRATEGY

What better time to review your investment strategy than the start of a new year? There are a few simple ways to maximise your return that are all too often forgotten.

Maximising your return in 2016Water charges

It is common for a landlord to pass on water consumption charges to their tenant. This is very straightforward however as with anything, there are guidelines to follow.

1. Your property must be water compliant (typically 3 star WELS rating or higher)

2. Your property must be individually water metered (or delivered by a vehicle)

3. Your tenancy agreement must stipulate what the tenant will be responsible for

When referring to a Unitywater bill, it is the “state bulk water charges” and “water usage charges” that can be passed on to a tenant. The landlord remains responsible for sewerage usage and fi xed access charges.

Solar power

While the Residential Tenancies and Rooming Accommodation Act (2008) does not make specifi c reference to the solar bonus scheme, the Electrical Act 1994 does state that the person who has the electricity account in their name is entitled to the bonus. Therefore, providing it has been made very clear to your prospective tenants

at the start of their tenancy, you are well within your rights to keep the electricity account in your name, charge your tenants for electricity usage and keep the rebate yourself.

Depreciation

One benefi t that often goes unconsidered by potential investors is depreciation. According to the Chief Executive Offi cer of BMT Tax Depreciation, Bradley Beer, research shows that 80% of investors don’t maximise the depreciation deductions available from their properties. Considered a non-cash deduction, investors don’t need to spend any money to be able to claim depreciation. It is a deduction available for any wear and tear which occurs to the building structure and the plant and equipment assets contained in the property over time.

If you would like to discuss your investment strategy with our experienced property management team, please contact Sales & Portfolio Manager Amanda Lawther on 0429 861 249.

Sippy Downs Market Update: Our community, Our culture, Our future

Welcometo Sippy Downs,our Community.

A well diverse & balanced market place, consisting of local families, retirees and young couples that have children attending the local Chancellor Schools & Sienna Catholic College.

The year that was, 2015, saw the Sippy Downs Real Estate Market transact over 275+ properties which comprised of 173 houses, 43 Units and 59 vacant Blocks of Land in the Flame Tree Pocket.

If we compare these numbers to last year, 2014 saw the market transact 255 properties in total which comprised of 197 Houses, 27 Units and 31 vacant Blocks of Land.

The number of transactions for houses have been a little lower for the past 12 months, however, the numbers are increasingly higher for Units & vacant Land. It seems that our team at Ray White Sippy Downs have met more Investor purchasers than ever before.

This could be traced back to many reasons why; including the expansion of the Flame Tree Pocket Estate, Youi Insurance announcing their new World call centre site and the new Coles to be both located on Sippy Downs Drive, Interest rates have been consistent at 2% for the past several months, Habitat developments with their contemporary & modern designed Town House complex due for completion in 2016 and of course, the expansion of the Sunshine Coast University.

Either way, there is no doubt that local, interstate & international buyers are seeing confi dence & reassurance that the Sippy Downs area will continue to grow & adapt to the forever changing trends, which will in essence, offer a more stronger ‘return on investment’.

The Ray White Sunshine Coast group had a fantastic selling month of November that allowed us to conduct 591 Open Homes which lead us to meet 1773 buyers, 457 being private inspections. Throughout our buyer inspections, we generated 222 written offers and we transacted 75 properties locally.

It just goes to show that the Sunshine Coast market is as strong as ever, people are wanting to live locally, especially Sippy Downs because of all the current infrastructure & the future growth of what is to come.

With the recent announcement of the new Palmview Estate to commence in 2016, we will see an additional 17,000+ residents call Palmview home. Making it practical & easy living, they will construct new Schools, a shopping centre, churches, etc which will make the area & surrounds an ideal destination to live for a well diverse group of demographics. This new housing estate will eventually connect Sippy Downs to Kawana Forest & Meridan Plains, via a well designed network of roads.

We are privileged to be working alongside the local Sippy Downs residents and we are super excited to help even more of our fellow residents move onto their next stage of their lives throughout the New Year of 2016.
