Interesting read and despite the interest rate rises it’s not only the investors that see value in the Perth market.

Perth property market standing alone as 2023 growth prospect While the rest of the country stares down the barrel of large property price falls, Perth is tipped to buck the trend and increase in value in 2023.

Research house BIS Oxford Economics has forecast the next housing construction peak within five years, with strong population growth and a projected undersupply in some states expected to create a renewed upswing in residential building by 2023-24.

BIS Managing Director Robert Mellor explains the driver of growth being population increase and stock decline. He also discusses the need for rental yield to improve to encourage investor activity.

In Perth, I feel we have already reached that point where property is well priced and showing good rental yield in some areas.

For some time I have been following and researching a Perth suburb only 22 km from the CBD with established public transport, schooling and high amenity. There has been a significant reduction in value through the downturn however its clear the established stock is now at land value.

As an example an older 3 bedroom home on over 600sqm is available at under $200,000. Currently tenanted at $250 pw. Much of this area is zoned R15/40 permitting development. Whilst I am not here to try to sell you a quick buck or fast capital growth as we move through our next cycle you simply will not be able to replace this stock.

Enjoy the article.

Slowing building approvals may prolong the property market downturn, with construction starts expected to decline a further 8 per cent...

The Perth Rental Market Continues to Improve.

Perth’s rental market continues to gain momentum, with 82 per cent of Perth suburbs recording either stable or increased median rent prices, where there were enough statistically significant transactions during the period.

The president of RIEWA Mr Collins recently commented “While Perth’s overall median rent price remains at $350, we are seeing an increasing number of suburbs record upward movement in prices, which is a welcome development for Perth landlords and suggests it’s only a matter of time before Perth’s overall median rent starts to climb.”

The 10 suburbs to record the biggest increase in median rent price during the month were North Perth, East Perth, Perth, Dudley Park, Cloverdale, Meadow Springs, Padbury, Kardinya, Lakelands and Port Kennedy.

Mr Collins noted “Of the 10 suburbs, North Perth, East Perth and Perth saw the most notable improvement in price, with their medians lifting by $20, $20 and $18 respectively, a substantial increase on February and a testament to the increasing demand from tenants,”

Perth’s vacancy rate is currently the lowest it’s been in six years at 2.3 per cent, with declining stock levels and increased rental demand. The market is turning in favour of the landlord and its a matter of 'when' not 'if' rents will increase this year.

There is a strong correlation that when the vacancy rate reduces to below 2.5% that the WA market starts the recovery phase in the property cycle. In the 2008-2009 downturn the vacancy rate reduced to under 1.9%, 2010-2011 to 2.8% and by 2012 was 1.8%. Whilst this latest downturn has been longer the vacancy in April 2014 was 4.0% peaking at over 7% late 2017 and as reported is now 2.3%.

There are other factors in play such as tighter lending policy, low population growth and lack of confidence in the real estate market, however the labour market is improving as is general consumer and business confidence.

For those looking to invest now, the reset property pricing and positive forecasts for rents in the market will produce solid yields.

Currently, we are looking at well located single dwelling product or opportunistic purchase of distressed assets for long term investment.

At the same time there are opportunities for sophisticated investors for shorter returns through syndication and debt funding, however show caution in this area and always research the history and experience of the developer.

Debate on the benefits or negatives of removal of negative gearing on established properties will continue to grow.
Property investment has many channels and opportunities from direct investment, unit trust and syndication, not just the traditional residential investment property. As one model might see reduced options others will open up. Feel free to contact us to discover more.

Proposals to limit negative gearing and reduce capital gains tax concessions will cost the ALP a staggering $32 billion in just 10 years, according to research by the Property Investment Professionals of Australia (P**A).

With the coming federal election property investment is in the news a lot.
Now that the banking royal commission is complete, property investment will be in the spotlight as to credit worthiness of borrowers and the availability of mortgage finance.
And with the Melbourne and Sydney property markets on the slide, property investment will be deemed to be risky as people lose equity in their homes.

All this said – guess what?

People still need homes, and people still want to live in great locations…

This is why at Progress Invest we believe in helping people understand how to find property hotspots. But location is not enough we also believe that external factors always present opportunities and thanks to being in the Progress Group – one such opportunity has arisen.

THIS IS NOT FOR EVERYBODY

If you qualify you might have interest in learning more about investing in a boutique 24 lot residential land development in the growth area of Munster in Western Australia. Munster is around 5 km’s from Fremantle and a short trip to the ocean. (a perfect location).

The key features of this exciting offer are:
• All major planning approvals are in place.
• Project works expected to commence in May 2019.
• First dividend and capital returns December 2019.

• Equity raising fully underwritten.
• Experienced management team.
