REAL ESTATE AGENT INDEX

Here’s an interesting fact as pointed out in our cover story this week: 55 per cent of the Coast’s population can’t aff ord to spend more than $300,000 on a home. It leaves us with quite the conundrum, given the fact that our median house price lurks around the $450,000 mark. With an eye on the future, what exactly are we supposed to do about this? Or, more importantly, can we actually do something about this or do we just sit back and enjoy the wonderful lifestyle we have on off er while it lasts, until a large proportion of us are forced to partake in a mass exodus from the Coast in search of more aff ordable living alternatives? Th is two-part cover story series on aff ordability tackles the obvious – what is the aff ordability crisis, how did it happen, what does it mean for the future and what can be done about it. Luckily, we have a number of experts on the case and with a special taskforce in place to tackle the issue, there’s hope on the horizon yet for more than half the Coast’s population.

represent the development industry, community and housing groups, State Government and University of the Sunshine Coast. Its chair is regional councillor Anna Grosskreutz. Th e taskforce deals with a range of issues from emergency accommodation to social/community housing to aff ordable private housing options.• Th e UDIA (Urban Development Institute of Australia) represents a wide range of professions and occupations. Last fi nancial year the Sunshine Coast development and construction industry produced a total turnover of $5.4 billion and employed 12 per cent of the region’s workforce – about 27,000 people.• Not to be confused with the above, the ULDA (Urban Land Development Authority) was established by the Queensland Government in 2007 to make housing more aff ordable and facilitate the delivery of a range of housing options for the state’s changing needs.

THE ISSUE OF HOUSINGWhat exactly is aff ordable housing? Councillor Anna Grosskreutz expands the defi nition to aff ordable living. Her taskforce says housing is considered aff ordable “when it is appropriate to the needs

of lower-income households in terms of design, location and access to services and facilities”. Housing costs for the lowest 40 per cent of wage earners shouldn’t exceed 30 per cent of household income.

Th e typical housing product on the Coast is a large house on a large lot (800 square metres-plus) or an upmarket townhouse or unit. Almost 40 per cent of dwellings on the Coast in 2006 had four or more bedrooms and another 48 per cent had three bedrooms. About 76 per cent were detached dwellings.

Yet as the population grows and ages, our typical household sizes have been dropping. According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics and the taskforce’s analysis of demographics, our region is housing fewer large, younger families and more single and/or aged people. In 2006, the biggest percentage of households comprised couples without kids (29 per cent), followed

Talk to any low-income earner saving up for the great Australian dream and they’ll tell you that getting into the Coast property market is tough. Julie Gatehouse investigates our housing affordability crisis in part one of this two-part series.

PART 1 by Julie Gatehouse

Fift y-fi ve per cent of Sunshine Coast people can’t aff ord to spend any more than $300,000 on a home, according to analysis by industry body

the UDIA. Yet the Coast’s median house price has been hovering around the $450,000 mark. No wonder there’s

a housing aff ordability crisis.

It’s an overwhelming task, but there’s optimism coming from those

involved. They believe there’s a cultural change towards issues such as housing

designs, densities and planning

“ “

In your dreams

Years ago, the concept of aff ordable housing focused on putting roofs over the heads of the small proportion of people struggling below the breadline and relying on public waiting lists. No more. Government, community and industry experts are uniting to tackle what has become a mainstream problem. If unchecked, they warn, it will adversely impact our lifestyle, community

diversity and economy – including the property and development industries – as key workers and young people search elsewhere to buy or rent suitable housing.

For example, imagine the impact on traffi c congestion alone if the thousands of new residents expected to staff a new Kawana hospital have to live in cheap places in the sticks without public transport. And what about accommodating our growing number of seniors who lose family and fl exible incomes?

Th e experts want to create stronger, vibrant, sustainable communities where even low- to moderate-income earners – and if you make between $40,000 and $80,000 a year, that’s you – can live the dream of home ownership without sinking into fi nancial hardship.

It’s an overwhelming task, but there’s optimism coming from those involved in the process. Th ey believe a cultural change towards issues such as housing designs, densities and planning is already underway.

THE EXPERTS• Th e Housing Aff ordability Taskforce was formed in September 2008 to advise the Sunshine Coast Regional Council on increasing the region’s supply of aff ordable housing. Meeting monthly, it provides expertise and acts as a network and lobby group to fi nd innovative solutions. Eighteen members

by couples with kids (25 per cent) and single people (20 per cent). By 2031, the median age is expected to increase from 41 to 44 years.

Our median income ($895 a week) is considerably lower than the Queensland average ($1031), but our housing costs are higher.

In addition, our real estate prices have been relatively buoyant despite a soft ening of activity during the past year’s global crisis. Latest RP Data fi gures show Nambour is top of the Coast’s most aff ordable suburbs list – but its median house price is still $335,000. Our top 25 most expensive suburbs range in median price from $560,000 at Peregian Springs to $866,000 at Kings Beach and $900,000 at Tinbeerwah.

Lowered interest rates and government incentives have helped some fi rst-home buyers onto the property ladder, but the overall result is fi nancial hardship for many people seeking the Australian dream.

Housing Aff ordability Taskforce member Robyn Douglas, also the council’s manager of social policy, sums up what is now a problem on the Coast. “Housing prices haven’t really dropped signifi cantly here and incomes haven’t really increased, so we have housing stress.”

cover story

Housing affordability is a serious issue for our region. The Sunshine Coast has been named one of the least affordable regions in the developed world.

Housing stress

Housing stress affects more than one in three households in our region.

Is the Sunshine Coast affordable?

House sizes 1820 – 2009

Housing trends over the decades

THE ISSUE OF LANDMark Van Wyk, a developer and vice-president of the UDIA Coast branch, says the housing aff ordability problem has two main elements: the rising cost of land and the rising cost of building a house. “It’s a complex issue to resolve because there are multiple stakeholders.

“We’ve gotten into strife fundamentally because of the supply of aff ordable land and the inordinate time it takes to bring land to market under current planning frameworks,” says Mark, who is a taskforce member.

“Th e cost of subdividing land has skyrocketed to as high as 60 per cent of the overall cost for a developer on the Coast, which translates into higher sale prices to buyers. Ten years ago the land might only cost 30 to 40 per cent, but now there are so many extra fees, such as environmental compliance and increases for infrastructure, plus at the other end the bank and interest charges while we await approvals.”

He says planning schemes are inherently infl exible and have not encouraged diverse and aff ordable housing options.

Culturally, Mark also points to Australia’s traditional love of big homes and backyards. Th e sizes of Australian homes have been growing continuously from tiny settlers’ cottages in the 1820s to big project homes in the 1990s and today’s custom-designed mansions.

Th e issue of land supply remains contentious between the industry and local government, including accusations that developers withhold land to push up demand.

Mayor Bob Abbot, who says sustainability is now the Coast’s highest priority in every sector including strategic planning, believes suffi cient land is available. Palmview is one area he cites as perfect for future housing in the $300,000s, as long as infrastructure is adequate.

Anna says land supply is one piece of the jigsaw. She admits there has been “a degree of caution” within council processes, especially regarding big land releases in emerging towns, while infrastructure needs and planning have been checked out.

“We’ve got a total mismatch with Sunshine Coast housing at the moment,” she says. “We’ve gone to an extreme level that’s very large and unsustainable and many people can’t aff ord to purchase it.”

Th e ULDA believes the state’s housing aff ordability crisis is a result of market infl uences, interest rates, economic and fi scal policy and mortgage deregulation.

While fi xing the global fi nancial crisis is out of local hands, local minds are working feverishly on strategies to improve housing aff ordability.Part two: What goals are being set, and a sneak peek at the action plan underway.

Housing mismatchFor every fi ve dwellings here, only two are considered appropriate to their household size. Three dwellings are large with only small households residing in them. Much of our housing is under-utilised.

Unaffordable private rental

Two out of fi ve low-income households are living in unaffordable private rentals.

At-risk purchasers

One out of fi ve purchasers are paying more than 40 per cent of their household income on housing costs.

Source: Sunshine Coast Regional Council

The news for low-income earners and fi rst-home buyers waiting to jump on the property ladder is not good if the latest fi ndings by BIS Schrapnel are to be believed. The research house forecasts that property prices in some areas of the country will rise by almost 20 per cent in the next three years. The BIS report says that house prices in Brisbane will rise by 16 per cent by 2012. Property prices on the Sunshine Coast tend to move in tandem with our state capital, with BIS predicting that our prices will rise 14 per cent by 2011. The bottom line: if you can afford to buy, it’s probably a good idea to get in now.

Insulation in the building envelope – that is the separation between the interior and exterior environments of a building – helps keep heat in during the winter and cooler air inside during the summer months. Th ose living in well-insulated houses spend less cash on heating and air-conditioning bills. Th ere are many types of insulation made from many materials such as fi breglass, rockwool, natural wool, polyester, cellulose, polystyrene and refl ective foils.

Basically, heat always fl ows from warm space to cool space. In winter, heat fl ow moves from heated indoor spaces to adjacent unheated rooms such as garages, bathrooms and laundries, or outdoors, or it fl ows indirectly through interior ceilings, walls, and fl oors – wherever there is a diff erence in temperature. During the summer months, heat fl ows from outdoors to the house interior. Uninsulated homes are therefore warm in summer and cold in winter. To maintain comfort in your home, most of us stick on the heater in winter to replace the lost heat. In summer, the heat gained is removed by your fan or air-conditioner. Insulation provides eff ective resistance to the fl ow of heat, keeping heat out in summer and in during winter.

When thinking about the type of insulation you need for your home there are a few things to consider. If you are installing it yourself it’s obviously best to choose an insulation that is easy to put in. Check with your supplier about this one. If you want an insulation that will last as long as the house does, choose one, such as fi breglass or wool, that will not settle over time. If you’re concerned about the health aspects of insulation, choose

one that has been thoroughly tested for safety. Glasswool (or fi breglass), rockwool,

polyester, sheeps wool and cellulose (shredded paper) are considered to be pretty safe. If

low environmental impact is high on your list, choose an insulation

made from recycled material, such as cellulose.

While the cost of insulation varies greatly on materials used and the size of your home, it is generally a heft y expense. As part of the Federal Government’s Energy Effi cient Homes Package, home owners may be entitled to a $1600 insulation rebate to help cover the cost of

installing ceiling insulation. To be eligible you must be an

owner-occupier in a home that has no or very little ceiling insulation. To fi nd out more about the rebate and to see if you are eligible, visit

www.environment.gov.au/rebates.

Th ere are basically two types of insulation – bulk and refl ective foil. Bulk insulation, such as rockwool, sheeps wool or cellulose, acts like a blanket over your house and slows down heat fl ow by conduction. During the summer, if you have air-conditioning, or the winter, if you have the heaters on, bulk insulation is useful in keeping that cooled or warmed air inside the home. Refl ective foil insulation resists heat fl ow by radiation. It’s useful in the roofs of homes in warm climates such as ours, because it refl ects the heat back outside. In winter, bulk insulation, combined with blocking draft s, is the most eff ective way of keeping the heat in.

Th ough insulation is not cheap, it generally pays for itself aft er a few years (depending on the type you choose to install) by reducing the amount you spend on heating and cooling bills. Obviously, the less you use the heater and air-conditioner, the more money you save. Every day you don’t turn on the heater or air-con, you are also reducing greenhouse gas emissions and your carbon footprint. Some insulation can also be eff ective sound proofi ng and helps eliminate condensation on walls and ceilings.

What is insulation? How does it work?

What kind should you use? How much will it cost?What types are there?

What are the benefi ts?

Want a greener home? Your fi rst step should be installing appropriate insulation – it’ll reduce your carbon footprint and save you money in heating and cooling bills as well.

exclusive feature

Looking over the pictured artist’s impression and you’d be forgiven for thinking it’s a plan for one of the Coast’s latest unit developments – a stunning

series of homes that share a waterfall and resort-style pool. But you’d be wrong. Th e illustration is for a house and, if you’ve got a cool $8 million lying around, the land and plans could be yours.

Aft er 12 years, the iconic piece of Noosa land, at 62 Park Road in Little Cove, is back on the market. Th e new owners will be buying not just a prestigious piece of real estate, but a slice of local history, which began in the 1950s. Originally the Noosa Park Inn, the site was then home to the Noosa Wave Kiosk before becoming the popular Coco’s Restaurant in the 1980s. In 2000 the restaurant closed its doors to the public and the site soon became derelict, graffi ti-ridden and neglected. Th e building has since been demolished and now the site is available and ready for its next transformation.

Letting go of their prized property is bittersweet for Brian and Christine King, who purchased the land back in 1997 aft er falling in love with the outstanding views.

“It is one of my favourite spots in the world and holds so many happy memories for my husband and me,” Christine says. “Coco’s was my favourite place to go. I initially bought the land with the intention of rebuilding the restaurant and building our home on the top fl oor, but I was told that would be an unsound business decision. Also, I found it would be near impossible to get planning permission for another restaurant on that site. Th e original kiosk and restaurant were built so long ago that the owners didn’t need planning permission. I think it is a waste to leave the land sitting with nothing on it.”

Th is one-of-a-kind location has an estimated price of $7.95 million, setting the benchmark for land of this size in the area. Th e site has planning approval for a single dwelling, duplex or triplex development. Council approvals are in place and plans have already been drawn up for what could possibly be one of Queensland’s most opulent residences – a luxurious four-level, six-bedroom home featuring a pool with a waterfall fl owing down the side of the building to a lower resort-style pool. Th e

house plans come with the block, but they can be altered by the designer, Chris Clout, to suit the buyer’s taste.

Th e 1131-square-metre site is a double block, encompassing the original Coco’s site and the site where the old Boombarra units once stood. Views are extensive from both upper and lower levels and stretch from

Laguna Bay to the Noosa north shore and out to the National Park Point. Th e position is the gateway to the Noosa National Park and its walks to Tea Tree Bay, Granite Bay, Hells Gates and Alexandria Bay. Noosa Main Beach and Hastings Street are a 10-minute walk along the boardwalk.

Originally from the UK, via Hong Kong, Christine and Brian (whose background is in real estate and commercial fl ying) moved to Noosa permanently about 12 years ago and opened jewellery stores in Noosa and Sunshine Plaza. Overseas business interests are drawing the couple back to Hong Kong and so they are forced to let go of the plans for their dream home. Th eir hope is that someone will purchase the property and carry out their dream.

“I want someone to buy the land, build a beautiful home and truly enjoy it,” Christine says. “It is such a magical place that it deserves to be a beautiful home for a family. It is the best location in the world and will make an amazing home site.” To fi nd out more, email Christine on [email protected].

One of the country’s most prestigious properties is on the market, and MPR has the exclusive story on this Noosa address.

One in 8 millionThis is a house…

…and this is the view

It is such a magical place that it deserves to be a beautiful home for a family. It is the best location

in the world and will make an amazing home site

news & views

In the name of charity An expert in action

Mechanical heart

New recruits

A snapshot of who’s doing what in the industryA number of local agents are participating in some forthcoming charitable events taking place on the Coast.

Eric Annett from Leading Edge Real Estate in Nambour is participating in the Ride For Daniel, a 50-kilometre ride that starts at the Big Pineapple and winds up the hinterland before fi nishing at the Ettamogah Pub. Th e ride takes place on Sunday June 21 and is in honour of missing local teenager Daniel Morcombe. It aims to raise the level of awareness for child safety and protection.

As part of the 10-week lead up to this year’s Bridge to Brisbane, Heart Foundation Ambassador Matt O’Grady of Ken Guy Noosa participated in the 15-minute skipping challenge overseen by the Heart Foundation Jump Rope for Heart skipping squad on Friday June 12, in Brisbane. Matt became an ambassador for the Heart Foundation aft er his son had heart surgery to correct a congenital defect. He is raising funds for the Bridge to Brisbane run, which will take place on August 30.

One of the country’s leading auctioneers will be swinging his gavel here on the Coast this Saturday. Industry trainer and 2004 REIQ Auctioneer of the Year Dane Atherton is auctioning two properties for agents Minka Jenkins and Gaby McEwan of Ken Guy Maroochydore. Th e fi rst auction at 18 Pandanus Street in Mudjimba kicks off at 2.30pm, while the Chevallum auction at 178 Dales Road will commence at 4pm. It’s rare to see Dane conducting auctions here, so it will be worth seeing such an expert in action.

It’s great news to hear that Les Hadlow from Woombye Real Estate is recovering well from his third open-heart operation. Th e surgery involved replacing some bypasses and inserting a mechanical valve. Les is quick to add that aft er three weeks of rest he’ll be back in the offi ce. “If I was any tougher, I’d rust,” he says.

Aft er four years working in residential sales in Maroochydore, Susan Austin has made the move to Pelican Waters to work with Henzells Agency. She says the move was an easy one to make. “Henzells has the right marketing, technology and training to give our clients an advantage in today’s market. Th eir systems lay a solid foundation to help their clients achieve the maximum price the market is willing to pay.” Susan has built an excellent reputation as a leading sales agent and looks forward to continuing her career in her own backyard at Pelican Waters.

Long-standing Sunshine Coast real estate personality Eric Murray has returned to the industry. Eric achieved many accolades as a principal and business owner of one of the most successful Professionals real estate agencies in

Australia at Kawana Waters. Eric and his wife Amanda sold the business and travelled

before returning to the Coast. Eric has joined Henzells Agency at Caloundra.

Paul Scott has been a licensed selling consultant since the early 1980s and operated his own real estate business in Tasmania, selling an array of property types including huge farms, vacant lots and suburban residential homes. Paul has brought his vast experience and selling know-how to the Sunshine Coast as part of the team at Carolans First National in Nambour.

hinterland

MPR goes on the hinterland land hunt and fi nds that there are plenty of plots in Nambour’s surrounds.

by Dorothy Drane

Bush-side blocks

There is unprecedented variety in hinterland land stocks right now as new estates come online in

allotments that range from exclusive residential estates to prized small acreage and rural residential blocks.

Nambour is the hinterland’s CBD with a range of commercial, educational and health facilities, and government services. As such, surrounding communities are emerging as great places to raise a family or retire.

A major new estate coming online is Coes Settlement at Coes Creek in Nambour. Th e estate has recently been completed aft er being delayed by rain, but has already proven to be a huge success for Day & Grimes Real Estate. All but two lots of stage one have been sold, with titles still four weeks away from being issued. Th ere are 11 lots remaining in stage two, meaning 36 of 49 allotments have been snapped up before titles are issued.

Th e estate, which is being promoted as “living with nature”, has green buff ers along Coes Creek and Petrie Creek, which add to the appeal of level building blocks and extra-wide kerbed roadways where it is possible to have street parking without blocking traffi c.

Still available are lots 10 and 11 of 600 square metres for $195,000 each, lots 28 and 29 of 732 square metres for $197,000 and 654 square metres for $195,000 and lots 32 to 37, ranging from 603 to 677 square metres for $199,500.

“Demand has been strong in this estate because the level blocks make it a very cost-effi cient way to build,” Day & Grimes principal Ian Black says. “It’s a fully serviced neighbourhood that gives the impression of living in the country while being within minutes of Nambour’s centre.”

Judge Homes is off ering house and land packages in Coes Settlement at $389,000 for a four-bedroom plus ensuite home with three living areas and a double lock-up garage. It has fl oor coverings, light fi ttings, stainless steel appliances, fences, turf and an exposed aggregate driveway.

“Th ere’s even the TV antenna already in place,” Ian says. “It’s great value for a fi xed price, and the choice of 14 blocks ranging from 600 to 742 square metres.”

One of Nambour’s biggest

developments is Th e Image, on Image Flat Road, which will ultimately off er 350 allotments. It is being released in stages with stage three now coming onto the market.

All of the fi rst stage has been sold with only a few allotments remaining in stage two, totalling about one-third of the project. Th e average allotment is 680 square metres for $190,000. Th e estate has ready access to Nambour amenities and also off ers open space, undulating land and a running creek, which also has a park and walking paths. Covenants are in place to ensure the quality of housing, and with about 60 large homes already built or under construction, it is becoming established as a quality area.

Keyline Real Estate in Nambour has nine acreages, two developments and eight allotments currently on the market, including 14 lots at Wakefi eld Road in Woombye and 19 in Woombye’s

Rangebrook Estate.Th e Heights estate

at Henebery Road is off ering 71 allotments in two stages, with sizes averaging 950 square metres at $180,000. Th e estate is in a valley in the hills above Nambour and off ers spectacular views to the coast.

Leading Edge Real Estate’s prestigious Northridge estate in Gardenvale Drive in

the burgeoning Coes Creek area comprises 19 residential allotments ranging from 647 to 1263 square metres. Land is gently undulating with the perfect north to north-east aspect and rural views. It adjoins parkland and is fully serviced, with a country feel, only minutes from all the facilities of central Nambour.

Leading Edge is also responsible for a number of estates north of Nambour. Parkside at Maple Court in Yandina is a residential estate of 23 level allotments from 700 to 840 square metres.

It is set beside three acres of environmental park and has a meandering creek, creating an idyllic and safe environment for families within a stroll of Yandina shops. A primary school, sporting facilities and railway station are also within walking distance.

Also in Yandina, at Collins Road, is Riverside, a rural residential estate of just 10 allotments, three of them fronting the north arm of the Maroochy River and

Nambour is the hinterland’s CBD with

a range of facilities and services. As such,

surrounding communities are emerging as great

places to raise a family or retire

The Real Estate Institute of Queensland allows for rental properties to be inspected at

least once every six months. Th ese inspections have many

benefi ts for both agents and owners and provide information in relation to:• How well the tenants are

maintaining the property,• Whether any repairs and

maintenance are required,• What preventative maintenance

might be required, and • Whether or not the current rent

needs to be reviewed in line with market levels.

While the Form 20a stipulates a six-monthly inspection, some real estate agencies will conduct them every three months. Tamara Wrigley is from Carolans First National

PEREGIAN SPRINGS

DIY

garden mix from a landscaping supplier before putting in hardy succulent-type plants such as dracaenas, agaves and even palms. Local markets have a great selection of plants. Ask the stall owner for as much information as possible – they know their stuff . When you plant them, consider shade and heights and water them in, especially for the fi rst few months. Top off with cane mulch, wood chips or bark and go for garden solar lights – they cheap, easy to use and eff ective.

Todd: Kylie, why bother replacing the old garden bed at all when in a single arvo with the help

of a coupla buddies, a backhoe and Scotty Cam, you can transform the entire backyard into a sporting hub.

If you’re like me, your yard’s got more grass than Willie Nelson’s tour bus, so get rid of it all. Simply tear up the yard, fl atten the entire area with a packer

whacker and start laying the AstroTurf ($45 a metre fully installed). Th e benefi ts of AT will be obvious the minute you step onto your new GABBA-esque fi eld of dreams – no more mowing, no more watering, and it’s always green and useable. Simply hose away any landmines the family Lab parks on it and your new yard will be tops for backyard cricket, mini golf, bocce, marbles, nude runs, crocquet and cheese rolling. As for lights, get your sparky to install some three-phase power action and whirl up a couple of 25-foot poles with fl ood lights attached. It’ll be on like Donkey Kong when the boys see your new multi-sport arena.

Dave: Hey Kyles. I’m gonna throw a word at you – permaculture! Nothing to do with ’80s hairstyles, everything to do with permanent agriculture. Decorative food gardens are the future. Th ey look great, are organic and healthy and the food is free! Th ere’s something so satisfying about growing and eating your own stuff . Whirl in a couple of small fruit trees, heaps of vegies and plenty of herbs. And here’s where we kill two birds with the one rock, so to speak – retain your garden bed with a rock wall. A fi ve-metre-high rock climbing wall! Great for your fi tness, you not only eat fresh homegrown produce, but you’re getting plenty of exercise too.

DIY BLUNDER The trees around our home had started blocking out the view so my wife asked me to give them a bit of a trim. Time to bring out the chainsaw, I thought, and started hacking away at anything green. I was working on an old 40-foot paperbark with the wife’s help – she was holding onto the rope as I started on the trunk. I told the wife to tug on the rope to make sure it didn’t fall on the car or me, so she did. Then the tree started to fall – in her direction. I yelled for her to drop the rope and run, but she took off straight along the path of the falling tree. It didn’t hit her, just, but she has now hidden the chainsaw. At least we have our view back.Dave, Nambour

cover story

Doing your blockWant to buy a block of land where you can build your dream home? There are a few things to consider before signing up.

When building your own home, buying a block of land may seem like the easy part of the process. Aft er all, it doesn’t involve things like colour

schemes, architectural trends and design plans. But choosing the right block is essential to the success of your custom-built home. Your immediate comfort and future capital gains depend on the suitability of your choice. And there’s no point thinking about the design of your dream home until you’ve found the block, as the land will dictate the type of house you build. Here are six things to consider when hunting for your perfect block.

ShapeTh e block’s shape is just as important as its size. Th e best choices are wide, deep blocks as they off er the possibility of an impressive street presence and the opportunity to create garden spaces. Elongated, battleaxe or angular blocks may restrict your building possibilities and will require an expert architect or builder to work out how to maximise space. You’ll need the exact dimensions of your block for calculations and planning.

AspectPerhaps the most important element of your block of land is the aspect. On the Coast, a north, north-east aspect is ideal. But looks can be deceiving – even the most poorly oriented block can look sunny and elevated when vacant. Get an expert opinion on how the block’s exposure to sun, wind and rain will aff ect your home.

Slope and soil typeA fl at block of land will obviously be the easiest and cheapest type to build on, but a site on a slope may make for a more interesting look. Remember, though, that blocks with a steep gradient that have not been retained will attract high building costs. Th e gradient will also impact on which way water will travel and indicate the need for drainage work. Th ere are also a few things to consider when it comes to the type of soil on the site. Sandy and light soils may need reinforcement

by Jessica Ainscough

even over small gradients, and thick clay or rocky soils may incur additional excavation and tipping costs.

ServicesIt is important to check if the site has access to services such as electricity, water and sewerage. Most blocks in established areas are fully serviced, but you can’t assume all services will be available. Additional costs for service connections may be required for blocks on new estates and in rural and remote areas.

CovenantsIf you’re looking at a block of land situated in an estate, chances are it will incur building covenants. A building covenant means the house you build must meet certain requirements in quality and aesthetics – all determined by the developer. Th e benefi t for you is that it ensures a level of quality on all buildings in the estate. A drawback is the cost. Th e covenant may require you to spend more on the construction of the house than you are prepared

to. Building covenants may include the minimum size of the house, the building envelope, driveways and fence types, the external facade and water courses.

NeighbourhoodTh e neighbourhood you choose to buy in will determine your enjoyment and re-sale opportunities. Not only must you be comfortable with the area now, but think about whether it will meet your needs in the future. Th ings to consider include the quality of surrounding homes, proximity to shops, transport and schools and whether or not the home you want to build will suit the area. It’s also a good idea to check with the council to see if there are any building restrictions over the land.

You may have the plans for your dream home all fi gured out, but the block of land it’s destined for needs to be established fi rst. It’s much easier to design the house to suit your block rather than trying to fi nd a block that will suit your desired home. Do your research and it will be possible to build the home you want.

Open house

The Water Gallery 394 from GJ Gardner draws the outdoors in with high ceilings and spacious interior areas. Th e architecturally designed doors

and windows allow for maximum natural light without compromising the fi ve-star energy-effi ciency rating.

With four comfortably sized bedrooms and a home offi ce conveniently tucked away in the corner of the entrance, this allows more room in the family, kitchen and dining areas for entertaining. In addition to the outdoor area is the alfresco pavilion, which is the perfect setting for dining and entertaining.

Open-plan kitchens are now a feature of GJ Gardner’s houses, and this home’s kitchen, with its wide benchtops and loads of storage space, is no exception.

“People love the openness of the home,’’ Sunshine Coast franchise manager Tony Quinn says. “Th e size of the main bedroom and the ensuite and the kitchen with its high ceiling and the courtyard area – it’s a nice place to get away to.’’

Th e living area features four-metre bi-fold doors back to the courtyard and a set the same size opposite that open to the pool deck.

Upstairs, the main suite has an ensuite that could easily have shutters or louvres fi tted for privacy. Bi-fold doors open to a large roofed balcony. Th e walk-in robe and dressing area are separate from the ensuite. Little touches like the laundry shute in the main suite and two other bedrooms add to the feeling of attention to detail.

Space and light defi ne the new energy-effi cient design from GJ Gardner Homes.

Power down and save

by Brad Thompson

With the announcement last week that our electricity bills are set to rise by 16 per cent, there’s been

no better time to consider simple ways to minimise electricity use in the home.

Take advantage of the current Queensland Government initiative to have a wireless energy monitor installed. Th is will allow you to track your consumption and see where you are currently using the most energy.

Here are a few ways you can save energy, save cash and help the planet: • Replace all external light fi xtures

with sensors.• Tint all external windows. • Insulate ceilings.• Replace incandescent with CFL lights. • Install water-saving shower heads. • Turn off all appliances at the wall when

you’re not using them.• Use cold water in the washing machine.• Shower for no more than four minutes. • Convert to a solar-powered hot-water

system.

As a local business, Precision Pest Management has a close relationship with Sunshine Coast buyers and sellers.

“With the current market, vendors are requesting pre-sale inspection reports to boost their properties’ saleability,” says Jason. “As a member of the local Sunshine Coast community, people know they can rely on us for honest and thorough reporting. We establish relationships with clients that continue for years, following up with annual termite inspections and general pest control as well.”
