It was good news for Sunshine Coast property owners this week, with the release of the latest REIQ fi gures showing positive growth for the region as a whole over the past 12 months. Th e tree-change trend was well refl ected in the fi gures, too, with acreage property boasting the most growth overall. However, for some, the dream of securing a property seems a distant reality, but according to experts and savvy investors, getting your fi rst property is the hardest. Once you have one property, it’s much easier to build on your portfolio. Just ask the Turners. Th is local family of seven own 85 properties between them, and they say anybody can do it (see page 36). So, this special Investment Issue of My Property Review is bursting with everything you need to know about property investing, from case studies to expert advice and opinions. So if this, teamed with a recent rates drop and the revised stamp duty, doesn’t inspire you, maybe the selection of hot properties for sale in this issue will.

use management company Property Only and they organised everything – ads, interviews.” A family now pays $420 a week to live there and there have been no repairs because the house is new, though Mark has added a security door aft er the tenants requested one.

Is he worried about interest rates or falling house prices – fears that experts say have caused an imbalance in the Sunshine Coast’s permanent residential rental market?

“No, I’m comfortable,” Mark says. “I don’t think it’s an over-commitment. People have got to have somewhere to live, but some can’t buy property because it’s too expensive. So if you can purchase a property and pay off an interest-only loan, and tenants have to pay $400 to $500 a week, you’re on the way.”

As an ongoing venture, Mark says the property is costing him and Toni $130 a week, but he considers this enforced saving. He expects a 12-month valuation in November to show a rise of about $60,000, which could then boost their equity (less costs like stamp duty) to buy the property at Peregian. He

For smart investors, a dream home isn’t just the one that they’re living in. It’s their other property that’s earning rent and boosting their fi nancial situation. In part two of our series on the Coast’s residential investment market, Julie Gatehouse gets expert tips for prospective investors and talks to people who are getting in before prices really take off.

PART 2 by Julie Gatehouse

W arana plumber Mark Alchin bought his fi rst residential investment property last November. Mark and his girlfriend of 17 years, Toni Nixon, paid $425,000 for the

new four-bedroom house in Caloundra’s Bellvista. Th e y didn’t have a deposit. Th ey didn’t need one. “We used the equity in our own home at Palmwoods to buy it,” Mark says. Now the couple is zeroing in on a more expensive property at Peregian Springs to buy and rent out. Th ey can’t wait to add a second investment to their portfolio. So how did they achieve this in under a year – and at a time when many mum and dad investors are holding back, as was reported last week in My Property Review?

Mark, who is director of Select Bathroom & Plumbing Centre, says he simply weighed up the benefi ts and risks of buying a property in the current market, and then made the decision. Th e 48-year-old sought opinions on the right property from industry professionals, colleagues and tradesmen and got sound fi nancial advice on his personal income, particularly tax options.

“I liked the size, price and location of the house, in one of the newest estates close to Caloundra and not far from the beach,” he says. “We borrowed $445,000, which covered everything we needed – insurance, stamp duty – because we had the equity in our existing house. Because it’s a new house, you get all the depreciation for your tax relief. We sent a form to the Tax Offi ce to claim the tax relief on a week-to-week basis instead of getting it back in 12 months. Th at helps with cash fl ow.”

Mark says renting it out was easy. “Th ere are not many houses to let and a lot of applicants out there,” he says. “We

compares that fi gure to putting $130 a week into a bank for a year – “Th at’s not even $7000 plus a bit of interest.”

Mark also looks to REIQ analysis and fi gures that show Coast house prices double in a seven- to 10-year cycle. “It’s a long-term prospect like superannuation. It’s not something you’re going to make money on overnight. Once you’ve done one, you keep using the equity and as long as you have cash fl ow for certain weekly amounts, there’s no problem.”

For many, investing in property is their main way of saving for retirement. “If you buy it for $500,000 today, that’s the amount you pay off , not the much higher amount that it’s worth when you retire,” says Jean Hamer from Jean Hamer Prime Properties. “And all the interest you are paying is tax deductible when it is an investment property, so the tenant and the government are helping pay for your investment.”

Jean suggests would-be investors examine the benefi ts of negative gearing and clever use of equity, which is the diff erence between the market value of your property and any money owing on it. “With all investment properties you’ve got to have long-term vision,” she says. “It’s never guaranteed when you can sell it, but you still have equity in it that you can borrow on to buy something else.”

Tony Nash of Re/Max Property Associates is also a private investor bucking the procrastination trend. “My wife Sandra and I are concluding the purchase of two three-bedroom homes on small blocks of land in Nambour,” he says. “It’s an opportunity to rent to two sets of professional couples.”

Tony says he is confi dent with his strategy because he knows

My Property Review | September 12, 2008 7

the Coast’s fundamentals remain strong – high demand, low supply, rising rents – and there is “still reasonably priced property away from the sought-aft er areas close to the coast”. He borrows 80 to 100 per cent, negatively gears where possible, and expects a property to start paying for itself aft er about three to four years.

Tony suggests investors look at areas such as railway towns, Nambour and Chancellor Park “where 80 per cent of people can aff ord to rent”. He says it’s a ripe time for investors to enter the market. “Th e main reason people don’t buy investment properties is because the fi rst one is quite a lot of work and they never get started. So just get started.”

Peter Ford of Henzells says there is good buying at the bottom end of the market in Caloundra, such as in Currimundi, Bellvista and Caloundra West, where “you can buy a decent family home in the $350,000-to-$450,000 range”.

He says investors are still snapping up canal frontage in the $600,000s and quality beachfront homes around $1 million “but they usually have another agenda of using it themselves later on, or with a view to retire”.

“About 50 per cent of our investors are looking at their own future lifestyle, so they’re happy to get a moderate return (four per cent) and have their cake and eat it too.”

Valuer Peter Degotardi of Herron Todd White says investors should focus on areas that will rise in value over a fi ve- to 10-year cycle. “Make a judgement as to when you think you are buying a bargain,” he says. “Investors look for ‘what is the quantum of my yield’, ‘how secure is it’ and ‘what is the potential for capital growth’? Th e Coast has typically fallen down a little in terms of investment yield but performed very well in capital growth.”

He says areas east of motorways are usually stronger in capital growth. “Th en it’s how much you can aff ord.”

Peter predicts the recent interest rate cut will signal a new beginning in turnover, slowly followed by increased competition and prices. As for when? “No one ever heard the bell ring.”

Ron Hamer is enjoying a fi ve-week holiday with his son, daughter and grandchildren in South Africa, Europe and Vietnam. Back in

south-east Queensland, his portfolio of “30 odd” properties quietly generates income. Out of sight, but certainly not out of mind.

Ron, 64, sold his steel pipe manufacturing business Major Metals Queensland a year ago. Sydney-raised and based at Dalby for the past 17 years, he now lives at Broadbeach. He started accumulating properties in 2000 and now owns some at Maroochydore, Twin Waters and Caloundra.

“All my properties are negatively geared because I don’t have an income like before,” he says. “I just try to consolidate. I’ll sell one or two over the next couple of years.”

Ron started with units in Brisbane “because aft er the booms in Sydney in Melbourne, it stood to reason that prices would go up in Brisbane”. His fi rst two-bedroom unit at New Farm overlooking the river has since more than doubled its original $460,000 price tag.

“At the time I put down a 20 per cent deposit, so I paid no mortgage insurance, but as my properties accumulate in value I use the equity to buy more,” he says. Th e result? A portfolio worth up to $25 million.

Ron fi nds the process reasonably easy. “Most properties I bought off the plan. Ninety-fi ve per cent are units with onsite managers, so they do all the rentals for you and they’re new so I don’t have repair problems.”

His fi rst on the Sunshine Coast was at the Duporth on the Maroochy River. Th e three-bedroom unit he bought for $540,000 about fi ve or six years ago is now valued at $940,000. “I had another at Aurora down the road. I paid $1.4 million for that and sold it for $1.8 million about 15 months later. I was a bit short of cash at the time and had a few properties coming up.”

Ron’s tips for would-be investors are straightforward. “Get started. Don’t put it off . Try not to sell any properties. Buy the property that gets a good rental return. And investigate tax options.”

He says high interest rates equal a buyer’s market. “Once rates come down, the price of properties will start to increase. Th e cost of new buildings is a lot diff erent to 12 months ago, too. Any new development will just keep going up.”

Success storyThis astute investor negatively gears dozens of investment properties

Thinking of buying an investment property, but not sure what to look for? It’s time to start crunching numbers.

THROW IT INTO NEGATIVE GEAR• When the costs of owning a property exceed the income it produces – in other words, it makes a loss – you can claim a tax benefi t. Th is is negative gearing.

• With the right property and fi nancial advice, negative gearing can provide great tax advantages. It may appeal to those starting out in the property investment market or people increasing their portfolios.

• Investors can claim deductions and depreciation against income on the property in three main classes: revenue deductions, capital items and building allowances.

• Th ere is inherent risk in borrowing to fund an investment. But you can minimise risk by choosing a property that is likely to increase in value, having enough income to cover any repairs or delays in rent payments, and taking out insurance.Source: www.anz.com/aus/homeloans/investing

WORK OUT THE ROI’SMake sure you do some calculations to fi nd out the projected ROI (return on investment). To do that, divide the net annual income (the rental return) by the value of the asset. For example: $25,000 (rental income) ÷ $500,000 (asset) = fi ve per cent return. To calculate your ROE (return on equity) you take the net annual income less loan interest divided by the value of the asset less the loan outstanding. For example: $25,000 – $12,000 interest = $13,000 income. $500,000 – $300,000 loan = $200,000 equity $13,000 (income) ÷ $200,000 (equity) = 6.5 per cent return.

ASSESS THE RISKAccording to Rick Gardner at People First Finance, expected initial yields for small investment properties should fall into a particular risk level category.

PROPERTY TYPE INITIAL YIELD RISK LEVEL

Residential dwelling

3% – 4% pa low

Residential fl ats 5% – 6% pa low

Commercial 8% – 10% pa medium/high

Industrial 9% – 12% pa medium/high

Specialist 11% – 14% pa high

TIP: Rick says when looking at property returns and risk, you need to consider the balancing game: 1. Initial yield

2. Probable capital appreciation

3. Level of risk

Quarterly market update

Th e Real Estate Institute of Queensland released its quarterly fi gures this week and the results indicate a resilience among the Queensland residential property market, with median house prices remaining quite fi rm in most areas.

REIQ Chairman Peter McGrath says the property market has changed from the robust results of last year, despite tough economic conditions. “Th ese results fl y in the face of some commentators who had predicted doom and gloom and substantial price drops for property markets across the country,” he says.

“Historically, Queensland property prices have held fi rm in much more trying economic conditions than those experienced this year, due to our steady population growth and strong economy,” he adds.

Th e median house price on the Sunshine Coast experienced positive growth of 12.3 per cent over the year from June 2007 to June 2008, with acreage property performing a positive 15.3 per cent annual growth.

REIQ Sunshine Coast zone chair Jean Hamer says the results refl ected the market accordingly.“Th es e fi gures are indicative of what we’ve been saying, which is that the market is continuing

to bump along quite nicely with no big drops or rises, which is rather good. At the moment it is as good a market as you can get for buyers, while sellers can soon make the most of having a larger pool of buyers available,” she says.

Jean adds that the forecast is looking good. “Th e new fi rst home-buyer stamp duty threshold and interest rate cut has already had a positive impact on the market, which augurs well for the months ahead,” she says.

Meanwhile, past REIQ president and Maleny local Michael Davoren says the fi gures are refl ective of the market about three months ago. “I think the fi gures support the anecdotal comment that was around a few months ago. While I agree there is a tree change going on, I think the fi gures are more indicative of the aff ordability issue. Most of the areas that increased in percentage terms are at the lower end of the spectrum, which can also be a result of a ready supply of property in the areas away from the coastline.”

Palmwoods

L ocation:The hinterland township of Palmwoods enjoys an enviable position nestled between the range and the beach. Located south of the burgeoning town centre of Nambour, Palmwoods is within easy driving distance of tourist hubs Buderim and the Blackall Range villages of Maleny, Montville and Mapleton. Palmwoods’ town centre is 27 metres above sea level and the surrounding district covers an area of 2300 square kilometres.

P opulation:In 2006 the population of Palmwoods was 4031. Households in Palmwoods are primarily couples with children.

G rowth:This once-sleepy little railway village has blossomed into a thriving township thanks to the addition of several new boutique housing estates over the past 10 years. Hundreds of young families have fl ocked to the area, attracted to the quiet lifestyle, country town feel and affordable housing.

A fruity history:The Palmwoods area was originally thickly timbered forests with dense palm scrubs. In 1868, it became the wet-weather route for Cobb and Co coaches travelling between Brisbane and the Gympie goldfi elds. The fi rst white settlers followed in 1881. A rich agricultural haven, the Palmwoods’ economy was originally built on timber, but evolved into fruit farming. During the 1950s, it was Queensland’s second-largest loading centre for pineapples and citrus. Palmwoods is currently set among avocado, custard apples and pawpaw

orchards, orange groves, fl ower farms and banana plantations. The town has become synonymous with fresh produce. The area is home to thriving international businesses such as Tropico and Gourmet Garden.

C ommunity central:Palmwoods is a well-developed community, boasting a wide range of services, sporting clubs and facilities. Locals enjoy access to a soccer club, arts and craft group, the Palmwoods Rugby League Club, Scouts, the Palmwoods Singers, a Lions Club, swimming

club, Girl Guides, the Aikido Institute and the Cittamani Hospice. The Queensland Country Women’s Association has a branch in Palmwoods, and the town has an RSL, a tennis club, a bowls club, a cricket club and the Palmwoods Progress Association. The area also boasts a number of schools, which have attracted young families to it.

M edian house price:The median sale price of a house in Palmwoods is $410,000.

My Property Review | September 12, 2008 35

We’ve all heard of negative gearing and borrowing to invest, but any investment strategy must be well-planned if it’s going to work.

by Ian Buscombe

Getting into gear

Plenty of people and businesses borrow money

to invest every day. As long as whatever you are investing in is sound, borrowing to invest can be sound. Borrowing for bad investments will destroy your hopes and lose you money. If the investment loses value or, in the worst case, ends up completely worthless, you will not only lose all your own capital, but you’ll also wind up with a debt. But

borrowing to invest in property and negatively gearing that investment can work very well.

Why do people get into negative gearing?Firstly, negative gearing can off er tax benefi ts. With negative gearing, your borrowing costs exceed your investment income. Th e law allows you to deduct your borrowing costs from your total income, provided that your investments are genuine.

For example, let’s suppose Bruce buys an investment (it doesn’t have to be a rental property, it could be shares or a managed fund) for $100,000 and pays $6000 in interest and receives $3000 income from the investments. He has a loss before tax of $3000. Suppose Bruce has a well-paying job (he earns more than $150,000 per year) and pays tax on his salary at the top rate of 47.5 per cent. He can now deduct this $3000 loss from his taxable income, and reduce his tax bill by $1425 (47.5 per cent of $3000). Th e tax saving reduces Bruce’s cost of borrowing.

Remember, you only get a tax benefi t if you earn other taxable income, such as a salary. If Bruce earned nothing else apart from his investment, he’s just left with a $3000 loss.

Judge the investment fi rst, not the tax benefi tA good investment must sooner or later show a profi t, not a loss. A good investment should also give you a reliable and rising income. Th is will reduce your losses over time, and eventually you will have to pay some tax. To choose a good

investment takes time, knowledge and experience. Get independent, licensed advice if you do not want to research and manage investments yourself.

What’s the bottom line?Th e longer you wait for your dollar, the more profi t you need to earn to make up for lost time. A dollar today is worth more than a dollar tomorrow. If you earn a dollar today, you can invest it straightaway and earn income. Also, infl ation makes tomorrow’s dollar worth less than today’s.

Remember that Bruce, using negative gearing, pays out today’s dollars in interest in the hope of making a profi t some time in the future. How long must Bruce wait to make a profi t? Will his future profi t compensate him for the past losses and the time he waited? Nobody knows for sure.

I suggest you set a realistic target by looking at rates of return from similar types of investments and set a realistic deadline to achieve your target. Th at way, you can check your progress to see if you are on track.

Face the facts about negative gearingInvestments can lose value because of economic forces beyond your control. Faced with this fact, every investor takes the risk that they may lose money. However, in time, if they choose good-quality investments, they will win out and should make a decent return.Ian Buscombe is the principal of BDK Buscombe accountants

Nine questions you must ask 1. What’s the end purpose to my investing? 2. Will buying this property bring me closer to, or push me further away from that goal? 3. Am I saving tax or making money? 4. What is the annual cash in- or out-fl ow? 5. Can I aff ord to make a sustained loss? 6. What is my exit strategy if things get tough? 7. What has to happen in order for my property to make money? 8. How many of these properties could I aff ord to own? 9. Have I checked and double-checked all the fi gures and sought independent information to ensure the data I have is realistic?

Building anempire

As ex-dairy farmers, the Turners are an unlikely family of property tycoons, with a portfolio of 85 properties. But, says mum Marg, anyone can follow their lead.

They say a family that plays together stays together, but the Turner family from Buderim has a new spin on this old saying, “Th e family that invests together stays together.”

Between them, the seven members of the tight-knit Turner clan have amassed a staggering 85 investment properties. Quite an achievement considering they only started investing in 2002.

So how has one family achieved this incredible fi nancial success in a relatively short period of time? By understanding the power of equity fi nance and by using debt to service debt and drawing on this equity as cash fl ow. Th e power of leveraging this equity, supported by signifi cant capital growth, is the key to the family’s investment strategy.

Marg and her husband John haven’t always been savvy investors. Hailing from Nathalia, two hours north of Melbourne, the Turners spent their early life together on a dairy farm. It was here they raised their fi ve children – four sons and a daughter.

Marg’s family are original selectors, so the only life she knew was on the farm. “My family had always lived on the farm, which was passed from generation to generation,” she says. “I didn’t even know what a mortgage was growing up.”

Over a 25-year period, Marg and John managed to grow their farming land from 80 acres milking 100 cows to 500 acres milking 500 cows. Although pleased with this success, they dreamt of an easier life. Th e turning point came in 2000 when Marg read the book Rich Dad, Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki. She was immediately inspired by its message – getting money to work for you rather than you having to work for money.

In October 2002, the Turners paid a visit to Caboolture for a friend’s birthday. Th ey had just four days off , during which time they purchased an incredible nine homes. “We took a few days off between the cows calving and hay season to take a trip to Caboolture,” Marg says. “Within four days we bought four

in Western Australia and Caboolture as potential hotspots, following the advice of his investment-savvy parents.

Mitch, 24, owns six properties ahead of younger brother Luke, 23, who has four. Th e youngest of the boys, Boyd at 20, already has three investment properties to his name.

Each of the boys has been well trained by Marg and John about the importance of using the equity in each property as a stepping stone. “Once you understand the power of equity and how to use it, you can start to grow your portfolio, no matter what the market conditions are,” Marg says. “We have taught our children that it’s not about how much you make but about what you do with that money. All our boys have completed a trade. Joel bought his third property on a third-year apprentice wage. He has learned that he can make his investments work for.”

Eager to share their experiences and successes with others, the Turners launched Harvesting Group, incorporating a property sourcing and project management company, a fi nance arm, rentals and property sales. Harvesting Group is a family aff air. Luke and Joel work in the business alongside Marg and John. Mitch and Boyd are both working as builders, managing their investment portfolios on the side.

Th e Turner family moved to the Sunshine Coast three years ago, aft er sampling the lifestyle on a trip to Caboolture. Th ey researched the local market for all of 24 hours, found their dream house at Rainforest Sanctuary and knew they would be calling Buderim home. Th e boys have moved out, which leaves Marg, John and Elle alone to enjoy the four-bedroom home on fi ve acres, complete with adjoining rainforest. “Th is place was so beautiful, so serene, we fell in love immediately,” Marg says.

So what does she see as the key to long-term fi nancial security? “To buy and hold onto the properties for the long term – this is the ultimate way to make money, to do it safely.”

Th e family’s investment strategy has clearly paid off and even in a tough market, they are reaping the rewards. But Marg has one more piece of advice. “It’s not about money, it’s about freedom. Property gives my family this freedom. Th ey can choose the work they do because they want to do it not because they have to, to make a living. But it’s not rocket science. With a little knowledge, anyone can achieve what we have achieved.”

properties. In 2002, the dearest house we purchased was $120,000 and the cheapest was $135,000, so we made some solid investments. Buying in between farming was diffi cult, but we had to fi nd the time to visit towns to purchase more properties as it was important we got in when prices were relatively low.”

Th e family took every opportunity they had to sneak away

from the farm to check out potential investments and expand their property portfolio. Marg and John now own about 50 properties together and also have partnerships in another six.

So how did Marg and John decide where to buy? “We’re common sense people I guess,” Marg says. “We knew Victoria was too expensive so we just looked to invest in areas that were

yet to boom, like Tasmania and Western Australia. We had friends in Caboolture and decided it would be a great place to invest too, although they told us we had missed the boat. We’re really lucky as when the east coast market slows, the west coast tends to boom, and vice versa, so this strategy has worked well for us. We haven’t ever been through a period where at least some of our properties weren’t experiencing capital growth.”

Th e four Turner boys have all followed in their parent’s footsteps. At the age of 18, each purchased their fi rst property off apprentice wages with little help from their parents. At just

14, daughter Elle is eager to purchase her fi rst investment property. Eldest son Joel, 26, has nine

investment properties n Tasmania, Western Australia and Queensland. When Joel decided to buy his fi rst property, he looked to towns yet to boom like Burnie in Tasmania, Geraldton

Can you see yourself atRE/MAX?

“Although successful at my former company the move to RE/MAX has meant many positive changes for me. I now get to keep a much higher percentage of my sales which has enabled my husband to join me full time in real estate. This allows me to offer better service to my clients, and with the systems RE/MAX has implemented for me, we know past clients will always want to use our services again. We have training offered every week and being part of this positive, successful culture has helped us to another level. I encourage you to consider what RE/MAX has to offer”Jan Withers

54 My Property Review | September 12, 2008

Life as a landlordYou’ve bought a property to add to your portfolio, but what now?Managing a rental property is a challenging job that involves ever-changing legislation and ongoing monitoring. Here’s a crash course in becoming a landlord.

Seven things you need to know

New legislation allows for landlords to pass on the full water consumption costs to tenants if certain criteria are met, including: the rental

premises are individually metered (or water is delivered by vehicle); the rental premises are considered water effi cient (criteria must be met); and

the tenancy agreement states that the tenant must pay for water consumption. Th is section of the tenancy agreement can be a little

tricky, so it is recommended that you have a property manager sort it out on your behalf.

Who pays for water?While a condition report covers the state of the property before being occupied, and gives you something to compare aft er the tenant has vacated, the landlord must allow for general wear and tear. As a landlord you must appreciate that the property is being lived in and that general wear and tear will

take place, especially on carpets, walls and in the gardens. Take this into consideration

when purchasing an investment property or when

preparing a property for the rental market.

Wear the wear and tearWhile your general insurances may cover the dwelling, you won’t be covered by other things such as loss of rent or accidental malicious damage, so it’s a good idea to take out landlord protection insurance. Th is is a specialised area of insurance and not all regular brokers will off er it. Do some research and shop around for the best Landlord Protection Insurance policy. It might prove to be a very wise move should things go wrong.

Get protection

Bring yourself up to speed with some terminology you may be hearing and using. RTA is the Residential Tenancy Authority. Th is is the governing body that monitors the

industry and is where the bond (usually equivalent to four weeks’ rent and payable by the tenant) is lodged. Arrears is rent owing or

outstanding by the tenant. A Notice to Remedy Breach is a form sent to a tenant who breaches the agreement

(such as rent arrears or objectionable behaviour) to notify him or her that this will not be tolerated. It is the fi rst formal approach to the eviction procedure should the breaches not be rectifi ed. A condition report is fi lled out at the start of a new tenancy and details the condition of the property before being occupied. Th is report is then used at the conclusion of the tenancy when conducting the fi nal inspection. Th e landlord/lessor is the owner

of the property and the tenant is the renter.

Get up on the lingoGone are the days when you could place an ad in the paper to fi nd a tenant and then manage your own property with ease. While many people still choose to manage their own rental properties, there are many risks involved, so it’s a good idea to use a qualifi ed property manager. Th e legislation is constantly changing and the paperwork involved can result in a full-time job – especially if things start to go wrong and you need to evict tenantsor go to the tribunal. Generally, most management fees will be around 8.5 per cent of the rent plus GST. Don’t forget to allow for other fees, such as letting fees (generally the equivalent of one weeks’ rent plus GST), advertising and monthly administration fees (usually around $6 to $10 per month plus GST).

Go for a pro

As the Landlord, you must respect the tenants’ right to privacy. Th is means that you cannot go onto the property without the correct notice – the time frame of how much notice to give will depends on the reason for your visit. Th e Landlord can only access the property once every three months with offi cial notice in writing.

Don’t imposeWhile a property manager will do the hard work, such as processing tenancy applications on your behalf, as the landlord you have the fi nal say on who eventually occupies your property. Generally, the property manager will narrow the search down to a handful of applicants and present them to you for the fi nal decision on who becomes the tenant. Remember, under the Anti-Discrimination Act you cannot discriminate on the basis of things like race, age or marital status.

Have your say

New Nambour record A new residential record was set for Nambour last week, when Craig Heppell from Victor Realty sold 34 Albatross Avenue for a record-breaking $910,000.

A snapshot of who’s doing what in the industry

Hammer timeTh e Henzells’ in-room auctions on September 5were a huge success, with registered bidders on all 14 properties and approximately 300 in attendance. Four properties sold under the hammer, with the remaining properties currently under negotiations. Th e auction commenced with four bidders fi ghting it out for a three-bedroom unit in iconic Kings Beach. Bidding for the second property up for auction was just as competitive, as another four

bidders fought it out for an acreage at Glenview, with the fi nal bid

of $462,000 securing the property at

24 Clinton Court.

Eye on the prizeTh e team at Peter Kennedy First National scooped up some awards at the recent First National Awards Night. But for Lyn Kennedy, principal of Peter Kennedy First National, it was a particularly special evening, as the company introduced an award in memory of her late husband Peter Kennedy, who passed away last year from prostate cancer. Th e award in Peter’s honour was for the ‘highest gross offi ce commission’. It was a proud moment for the offi ce when Brad Reed, who has been the leading sales consultant at Peter Kennedy First National for 12 years, won this award, along with many others. Congratulations Brad.

Congratulations to Jason Andrew who competed in the Real Estate Institute of Australia and New Zealand’s auctioneer of the year contest for 2008. Th e competition was held in Darwin on September 1 and 2, and was a showcase of the best two auctioneers from each state and territory of Australia and two auctioneers from New Zealand. Aft er a challenging two-day competition, Jason was announced runner-up and is now one of the top three auctioneers in the country.

My Property Review | September 12, 2008 85

Buying an investment unit may not be the fi rst thing that immediately springs to mind when thinking of Nambour and the hinterland, but it should.

As well as an increasing supply of townhouses and units coming onto the market in the hinterland town, Nambour also represents viable entry-level purchase prices and off ers good rental incomes with a ready supply of longer-term tenants. Many investors have already identifi ed the opportunities there, with some coming from interstate to buy up.

“Activity in investment units has been increasing in Nambour with many unit blocks built in and around Nambour in the past year or two actively being sought out by investors,” says John Pyne of Raine & Horne Nambour.

“Some have come from Sydney to buy off the plan in Nambour and we have also had investment clubs that have done their research, coming here to purchase townhouses in Nambour,” he adds.

He was recently involved in the sale of a small complex in central Nambour, where all of the units bar one sold off the plan. Stock is also increasing, with unit blocks under construction and plans for more townhouses to be built in the area now in the fi nal stage of council approval processes.

“Th ere is a demand and an increasing perception that Nambour is a good area to invest in,” John says. “We are getting more stock to choose from, with new projects on the drawing board and developers, both big and small, always on the lookout for sites in this area.”

Th ose buying are a mix of investor and owner-occupiers, with some townhouses being as big as, if not bigger than, a lot of homes in the area.

John says prices are much more competitive in Nambour than on the coastal fringe, even though the hinterland is only a 20-minute drive away. “Th e entry cost is lower and yet these quality townhouses and units in Nambour are still achieving good returns,” he says.

“Vacancy rates are very low and tenants tend to be longer-term. I know I am a bit one-eyed but Nambour is a great area. A lot of people who want to rent are looking at what the area has to off er, which includes proximity to services, good infrastructure, excellent education facilities, the hospital, transport and a more family-oriented lifestyle.”

Ron Hicks of Keyline Realty says about 200 units have been built in the Nambour area in the past 18 months and are appealing to both owner-occupiers and investors.

An average apartment will cost between $300,000 and $360,000, but the occasional bargain also turns up. A two-bedroom unit in an older complex will sell for as little as $180,000, but these bargains don’t come up oft en – and they don’t last long when they do.

An older duplex currently on the market for $320,000 or $160,000 a side, off ers an excellent investment, as does a two-bedroom unit in a small, well-maintained complex about 10 years old, for $260,000 or a three-bedroom for $270,000.

John says everywhere on the Sunshine Coast has enjoyed about 300 per cent growth in the past seven years, but because Nambour has came from a lower benchmark, he believes it is a better investment.

“It’s simple maths,” he says. “Th e dearer properties increase at a lower percentage. In reality, Nambour is a great place to invest as it has cheaper entry, but will go up at the same rate as the coast.”

A property purchased for around $300,000 is likely to achieve from $320 to $350 a week rental income, and there is no shortage of tenants.

“It is just as smart if not smarter to invest here as it is on the coast,” Ron says.

Smart investors are discovering that there are units and townhouses in Nambour and the hinterland that give great returns and provide capital gains. And there are still plenty of properties to be found – if you are quick.

Coast-based business on the rise

W ith the Sunshine Coast’s population increasing by more than three per cent per annum over the past decade

and reaching over 300,000, it is little wonder that we are bursting at the commercial seams. No longer are we regarded as a sleepy holiday or retiree destination and, like Brisbane, the Coast is fast running out of quality commercial properties, particularly in the popular retail and tourist hubs, such as Caloundra.

Th e growth we are experiencing is a balanced mix of families, business professionals and manufacturers, along with those who have holidayed here over many years and wish to retire.

Growing pains are the side-eff ect of a booming economy, and Caloundra is feeling the symptoms, with some local businesses knocking down walls and taking over the neighbor’s offi ce just to make do.

Th ere is also a massive shortfall in quality offi ce/warehouse combinations on the Sunshine Coast and while there are new developments coming on board, these are not expected to meet demand for some years to come.

As internet and emerging technologies rapidly evolve, many large businesses are now considering quality of lifestyle as a major factor as to where to build. Th ese businesses are

rapidly gaining the independence required to operate outside major capital cities and enquiry levels are fast increasing from Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne to fi nd offi ce space for established companies to operate satellite offi ces on the Sunshine Coast.

Th ose who invest in the Sunshine Coast commercial market are doing well, and with a shortage of quality properties available, will continue to do so.

new home & land

Moving on up on Kings Beach

E ssence on Kings is the newest residential opportunity up for off er at Caloundra’s iconic Kings Beach. It is the latest

project from Giarc Developments, which was responsible for the successful boutique complexes of ‘Salt on Kings’ and ‘Aspire on Kings’ in the same area.

Catering for the owner-occupier or investor on the lookout for a great retirement nest egg, Essence on Kings embraces beachside living with the patrolled surf beach only a short walk away and the waters of the Pumicestone Passage around the corner.

Residents can take a morning stroll along the beachfront boardwalk and watch the many water activities such as kayaking, kite surfi ng and fi shing or grab a bite to eat at one of the many beachside cafes on Kings Beach.

Comprising 17 units over seven levels, many units boast breathtaking views over the patrolled beach, Bribie Island and Moreton Island.

Taking advantage of the Sunshine Coast climate, the apartments have plenty of natural light, which reaches each apartment due to the eff ective use of large windows. Th e

tiled living areas and neutral tones complement the carpeted bedrooms.

All apartments include air-conditioning in the main bedroom and living areas, while the grand penthouse apartments have air-conditioning throughout. European appliances feature in the kitchens, which boast ample storage and granite benchtops.

Secure basement parking provides added security and convenience, while the outdoor barbecue and pool area and landscaped gardens are ideal for those wanting to entertain or relax on a hot summer’s day.

Caloundra is oft en called the gateway to the Sunshine Coast and off ers many lifestyle options such as fi ve patrolled surf beaches, shopping and restaurants. It is close to the majestic Glasshouse Mountains and only short drive to the Coast’s major shopping destination, Sunshine Plaza.

Essence on Kings in Caloundra is located just one hour north of Brisbane’s CBD, only 45 minutes from the Brisbane international airport and 35 minutes from the Sunshine Coast airport.

Apartments start from $453,000.
