The rush of first-home buyers is being driven not only by government grants, but by the best affordability since 2002.

Average mortgage repayments for first-home buyers have dropped by a third since September. The lower rates and the increased government grants have brought an influx of first-home buyers who might otherwise have put off the purchase of their first home for years.

They are seeking the cheapest property in the market, and as a result, the median price of a property sold to a first-home buyer has come down from $418,100 in September last year to $383,800 in March, according to the housing affordability study compiled by the Commonwealth Bank and the Housing Industry Association.

The study shows that mortgage payments consume 17.1% of first-home buyer income, well down from 28.3% a year ago.

The influx of first-home buyers has changed the profile of the market for new homes, with as many as a quarter being sold to people buying their first home, compared with a historic average closer to 15%.

HIA chief executive Chris Lamont said there was an influx of generation X and generation Y home buyers who would not otherwise have purchased their first home for several more years. However,

he said, the surge would not last indefinitely.

Purchases by people selling their first home and trading up to a new home remain depressed by insecurity about work, he said.

‘‘Trading up is a discretionary decision. We don’t expect any recovery in that end of the market in 2009, and that is reflecting the general economic outlook and employment.’’

“First National continually strives to improve so that we remain at the forefront of our industry and offer a point of difference to our competitors.

“Keeping abreast of industry trends and providing the most up to date market information is critical to any real estate business and the dedicated team at Nerang First

National will ensure the agency’s ongoing success by being primed to meet the future challenges of an increasingly difficult and tough market.”

First National Real Estate Chief Executive Officer, Mr Ray Ellis, presented the national awards and congratulated Nerang First National on their success.

Local real estate agency, First National Nerang, has been recognised at the First National Annual Convention Awards Ceremony, winning awards including the Highest Number of Listings and the Highest Number of Residential Listings for a Medium Agency.

Held on Friday night as part of First National Real Estate’s Australasian Convention in Christchurch, New Zealand, the awards were attended by around 365 of the network’s members and celebrate the network’s outstanding performers.

In accepting the awards on behalf of the Agency, Principal Mike Gray said the team’s success was even sweeter given the volatile market and tough economic conditions of the past 12 months.

“These awards are evidence that when things get tough, the tough get going and that’s one of the benefits of being part of a network committed to excellence,” Principal Mike Gray said.

LOCAL AGENCY WINS TOP NETWORK ACCOLADE

About 155,000 new homes were required annually to meet the demand of rising population, he said. Activity at the moment was consistent with annual housing construction of about 130,000 or 135,000 units. Mr Lamont said the Government’s housing investment programme would help, but it would not offset the weak trade-up and investment demand.

‘‘The best we could hope for would be a return to

150,000 annual starts, and that would not be this year or next,’’ he said.

“The First National business awards are the opportunity for members to receive the accolades they are so deserving of,” Mr Ellis said.

“It is through their contributions and the collective efforts

of the network that we encourage our members to learn and grow their

businesses.

“This year’s awards reflect the

professionalism, experience and

dedication of all our members and those fortunate enough to win

do so as a result of hard work and focus, and it’s great to see that recognised by their colleagues in the industry.”

Research by RBS economists Kieran Davies and Felicity Emmett shows that house prices are more responsive to rises in unemployment than they are to lower interest rates. This explains why real house prices (after allowing for inflation) have fallen by 10% from their peak despite a 3.8-percentage point fall in interest rates while unemployment has risen by 1.5 points.

Their research showed that the level of housing supply, housing construction costs and real household income have little influence on house prices. They found that the biggest influence on house prices was the ‘‘momentum’’

in the market — when house prices were rising, they kept rising regardless of what was happening with employment or interest rates.

‘‘With a self-reinforcing dynamic at play, prices may fall further, independently of what happens to unemployment.

If prices continue to decline, irrespective of supportive fundamentals such as seemingly tight supply and low mortgage rates, then it could put a further dampener on spending and lead to a more severe drop in GDP this year,’’ their study concludes.

MUM MAKES OUR HOUSE A HOME!No doubt there were a lot of spoiled mothers last month, as our mum’s got to spend Mother’s Day being thanked for all of the amazing work that they do every day.

Sam, Jamie and Emily Inches from Wedgetail Lane, Nerang won their mum a luxurious $200 pamper pack from Aegean Day Spa in Nerang just in time for Mother’s Day thanks to NFN

salesperson Susie Gale. Their mum was nominated in Susie’s

“My mum makes the best home” competition, because “she gave us a nice house to live in and nice stuff like clothes, bikes food and

other nice things”.

Well done Sam, Jamie and Emily, we hope that your mum had a wonderful day!

At its Australasian Convention 2009, being held in Christchurch this week, First National Real Estate outlined a host of new technological developments for its member network that will revolutionise the way people buy and sell their properties in the future.

According to Mike Gray, Nerang First National, the new technologies will ensure First National Real Estate remains at the forefront of the property industry.

“Buyers and sellers, renters and landlords will now be able to obtain information on the market and market trends faster, easier and more efficiently than ever before,” Mike said.

“We have products that have the ability to generate meaningful market intelligence reports, communicate more effectively with

FIRST NATIONAL UNDERGOES A TECHNOLOGICAL REVOLUTION

client databases and streamline property management processes for improved efficiency.

“In addition, we are totally revamping our website to make property searches easier, and matching of local agents with expertise as well as incorporating web-videos to tap

into the YouTube generation.

“We are also going to be using SMS and MMS more as a cost-effective way of getting market information to our customers ahead of anyone else in the business.”

Spearheading the technology revolution is the network’s new

Utopia system.

Utopia increases listings by cleverly harvesting buyers and producing online buyer demand reports that help target specific buyers, as well as automatically keeping in touch with buyer databases using SMS, MMS

and email communication modes.

“The beauty of Utopia is that it enables customers to input their wish-list directly into our website and it serves tenants and home buyers equally,” Mike said.“In this way, the moment a new sale or rental property becomes available, Utopia matches interested parties and sends them an email or even posts a letter.”

First National Real Estate will soon launch the www.firstnationalbusiness.com.au website which lists businesses for sale across its portfolio.

Detailed business searches, information and links to First National Real Estate Agents and brokers specialising in business sales are just some of the features of this new website.

Real Estate will never be the same again, and First National is leading the charge to ensure consumers receive the benefit of new technology.

First National says now is the time for investors to capitalise on positive gearing opportunities, as rising rents continue to drive rental yields upwards.

“Rental yields are basically at the point of being equal to or greater than current mortgage rates,” Mike Gray, First National Nerang said.

“This means positive gearing becomes a real opportunity to maximise the returns on investments.”

Positive gearing is when a property yields an above average rental return for the purchase price and/or expenses are lower than

INVESTORS GEAR UP POSITIVELY FOR PROPERTY

average.

This means your return outweighs your expenses so you have extra money in your pocket each week.

“The real benefit for investors who positively gear their properties is that the increased income lifts their ability to service more debt,” Mike, said.

“In today’s property market this means there is the potential for investors to pick up a property at a bargain price, and charge above average rents in return, maximising their return on investment.

“Also, because they have additional

PROPERTY investing is becoming more popular as interest rates tumble, the share market remains in the doldrums and returns from cash deposits head towards zero.One of the fi rst questions any real estate investors must ask themselves is whether they plan to buy an established home or build a new one. Property experts say there are positives and negatives with both approaches. It is important for investors to research and understand exactly what they want.Peace of mind? Instant income? Bigger tax deductions? Long-term growth? Answers to these questions will help shape an investment decision.

Real estate author, investor and university lecturer Peter Koulizos says there is no right or wrong answer in the debate.“If you are looking for hassle-free investment in property, you are

probably better off building or buying new because you have very low maintenance on the property,” he said.

“However, buying established gives you the opportunity to value-add whether through renovations or subdividing.”Investors, however, should expect to be paying more for repairs to an older house.

A big potential downside with building an investment property is that investors do not receive any income while it is under construction.

Brock Harcourts chief executive Greg Moulton said that was a factor investors must weigh up against the benefi ts of building, such as tax and stamp duty savings.

“If you want a better return and bang for your buck in the short term, maybe look at building, but if you are looking at a long-term investment opportunity you will be going where the capital

gains are - & 9 out of 10 times that is in established areas.”

“One of the advantages with buying in established areas is convenience with schools” he said.

Hamra Homes marketing manager Gaby Haidar said a key factor in building an investment property was selecting the right suburb.“Investors need to be smart about their choices and should pick a growth suburb to build, ensuring good returns and maximum capital growth,” he said.

income, they are in a better financial position to secure bank loans.”

Recent Australian Property Monitor statistics show asking rents on Australian residential properties increased significantly in the year to March, and that year-on-year growth has been strong and is expected to continue.

“As indicated in our recent Property Outlook 2009, rental yields are expected to remain strong for quite a while due to ongoing housing supply pressure around the nation,” Mike, said.
