The North West Region Market Snapshot
PRICE TREND
TRANSPORT
Throughout 2019 and 2020, and in line with the broader Sydney market, the North West of Sydney saw a slowdown in property price growth due to absorption of apartment supply and decreased buyer sentiment due to Covid-19. Buyer confidence during 2021 has increased from the previous years, along with decreased supply of apartments available for sale in Castle Hill. Whilst much of the price growth in Castle Hill has been within the established market, we feel that demand will transition to off-the-plan throughout 2022 with an increased participation by investors. As of September 2021, Castle Hill has seen an average annual price growth of 9.16% for houses
As part of the North West Growth Precinct, the completion of the North West Metro line will be the major transport provider for residents in the area, providing a 45 minute train ride to Sydney CBD. The Hill’s bus network also provides residents a commute to surrounding city centres, Rouse Hill, Castle Hill, and beyond.
INFRASTRUCTURE The NSW Government has committed heavily in the growth of the North West region to support the ongoing need for this housing, transport infrastructure and social infrastructure. The North West Metro train line is the major infrastructure project driving the development of housing precincts currently providing convenience for new residents to get to surrounding employment centres. In 2019, the state government announced a proposal for further tax levies in Western Sydney areas surrounding the new Western Sydney Airport to fund infrastructure projects.
and 6.38% for units.
S U P P LY General supply throughout North West Sydney has remained in the high range over recent years. Notably, we have seen an increase in single residential lot amalgamations and land rezoning to accommodate medium to high density residential housing. The NSW Government estimates that a further 92,000 homes will be developed in the North West over the next 2030 years. Traditionally, much of this density has been in the form of land releases and medium density/ townhouses, however we estimate that high density residential apartments will become another primary housing option, particularly within priority precincts along the new North West Metro train line.
BUYER PROFILE Throughout 2021, the resounding buyer demographic across greater Sydney continued to trend towards owner occupiers. This was reflected by sales data in the North West region, seeing a strong presence of families and downsizes. First home buyers continued to be active in 2021, particularly where pricing aligned with applicable government grants. We anticipate these trends to continue into 2022, with a particular focus to quality and convenience. In respect to the Investor market, we expect this buyer profile to emerge in the coming months due to an all time low in interest rates, optimism of potential capital gains from recent price growth across Sydney and ongoing infrastructure spend in the North West.

COLLIERS SUBMISSION
Buyer Profile From our experience of successfully selling out off-theplan projects, we believe the success of your project will be underpinned by our ability to position the project in the core target market, provide an exceptional ‘presentation’ of the display apartments, manage and control the sales path and buyer journey, and importantly provide reasonably competitive pricing to make the overall proposition compelling enough to maintain sales momentum. We believe the primary target market will be an owner occupier and downsizers followed by an increasing participation of investors throughout 2022. Outlined on the following page is a summary of the key buyer groups.

Future Supply CASTLE HILL
The Hills has been identified as a high growth precinct in Sydney with density, employment, and occupation levels similar to that of the Sydney CBD. Over the next five years, The Hills Shire is forecasted to construct approximately 8745 new residential dwellings at an average supply rate of 1749 new dwellings constructed each year.
10
There are currently 4 developments under construction in Castle Hill, which will supply 1570 new dwellings at an average of 392 per project, showing the scale of the projects additionally there are another 4 developments under development approval which will provide 2427 units to the area in the next five years. An additional 1054 new dwellings across 4 developments are in Development application. These 12 developments will provide 5051 new apartment dwellings in Castle Hill in the next five years. It is anticipated that 1-15 Carrington Road will potentially launch in 2023 and will consist 1,610 apartments. From our analysis, there will be two projects with development approval due to launch in Castle Hill over the remainder of 2021 and 2022 consisting of 492 apartments. Therefore, timing is crucial in the Showground precinct and we feel over the next 6-12 months is the best opportunity to launch the 38 & 40, 42A - 50A Middleton Avenue, Castle Hill development.

Price Escalation Modeling Years of developing and launching residential projects places our team with unmatched insight into implementing strategies for price growth. Our marketing and sales processes are supported by our custom built Project Management Tool which tracks all project activity including enquiries and leads across stock levels to effectively manage escalation through the launch and sell out period of each stage. We will price each apartment individually to ensure we maximise the value potential from each apartment. Our carefully managed release and sales processes (outlined on page 28) ensures that we generate high levels of enquiry for all apartments and urgency from the market to drive further price increases through the sales process. Our experience in the Hills region acknowledges the depth of the market especially for a project of high quality, convenience and accessibility. Our sophisticated modeling centralises the stock release, pricing and sales process ensuring no additional revenue is missed and accurate information on stock levels and interest is available at all times.

D I S P L AY S U I T E D E S I G N A N D O P E R AT I O N S Colliers has designed over 500 display apartments and sales suites of the last 10 years. The display suite does not just depict the quality of the project, it is an opportunity to showcase your brand and the quality and integrity behind it. It is not possible to over-stress how vital the sales suite is. A well designed and managed facility will drive sales momentum especially during the VIP appointment and sell through phases of the project. We understand you will be constructing a display suite onsite and we recommend a location with as little impact from when construction commences as possible. We propose a sample kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, living area plus a dedicated sales area. This display suite can be further discussed in detail upon appointment. The buyer journey and sales path will also need to be considered and provide an experience over and above the competing projects in market. Therefore, we recommend the full use of the Colliers technology package which can be installed in the display suite and can also be used outside of the display suite and really elevates the brand of the project. A full proposed draft marketing budget for the preparation of the project and the release of stage 1 is provided in Annexure A.
COLLIERS SUBMISSION
Project Staging Due to the size and scale of the project, we recommend releasing the project in two stage with building B being the first release consisting of 160 apartments. As building B has quite a large number of apartments, we recommend the engagement of our Partner Network Agents to maximise our opportunity at achieving a strong volume of sales. We have chosen building B as the first release due to the variety of apartment types within this building which provides the opportunity for various different price points to target a wider pool of buyers. We anticipate a sell-through of 128 apartments (80%) within 18 - 24 months. As we achieve 80% sell-through of stage 1, we will prepare to release stage 2 which will include buildings A & C consisting of 101 apartments. As buildings A & C are smaller in size than building B, the results achieved in stage 1 will set a benchmark for price points within stage 2. We therefore feel their will be great opportunity for price escalation and we anticipate a sell-through of 81 apartments (80%) within 12 months.
SUMMARY: •
Stage 1 – Building B (160 apartments)
•
18 - 24 months = 80% sold
•
Stage 2 – Building A & C (101 apartments)
•
12 months = 80% sold

Sales and Marketing Strategy P H A S E O N E : P R O J E C T P R E PA R AT I O N A N D P R E L I M I N A R Y S O C I A L I SAT I O N 3 Months (Nov 2021-March 2022) During Phase 1, we will commence the preparation of the sales and marketing for the project which includes engaging the creative agency and commence the development of the project brand, marketing collateral and design and install of preliminary marketing such as on-site signage. This phase will be a pre-socialisation phase to generate early interest in the project in preparation for the VIP Campaign and VIP Launch Weekend when the display suite will be complete. During this time, we will work closely with the appointed PR agency to develop a strategic media and press campaign to generate strong interest within the project and elevate the Showgrounds precinct as Sydney’s hidden gem within the North West.
P H A S E T W O : V I P ‘ C O M I N G S O O N ’ C A M PA I G N 2 Weeks (March 2022) In Phase 2, we will continue to socialise the project and will increase our lead generating activities. At this point our Coming Soon campaign will commence on the online platforms (Domain. com.au and RealEstate.com.au), social media and press. During this phase, we will implement our strategic media and press coverage campaign to generate strong interest by targeting specific identified buyer groups and those who are not necessarily looking at Castle Hill. We will showcase your project as an opportunity not to be missed. At this stage we would also send out communication to the Colliers databases and wider Colliers business globally and socialise both internally and with Colliers clients of the broader business. We would look at hosting strategic events during this stage. The list of Colliers International exclusive channels we target include: • • • • • •
Colliers International Master Residential Database: built over time and frequently nurtured, this database contains over 50,000 contacts. Be the First to Know Database: Colliers International actively promotes this campaign via press and online portals such as Domain.com.au and RealEstate.com.au to offer options for our website visitors to be the first to know about new project releases. Project Agenda content articles: project advertising and content articles will be posted and shared across the Project Agenda blog which has a direct database of 2,000 people. Colliers International Social Media: project promotion will be shared across all Colliers International LinkedIn, Facebook and Instagram and WeChat. Colliers International Network Channels: we have over 2,500 companies with a reach both locally and offshore, that work alongside us to take projects to the broader Asian market, giving us an even wider reach into this large group of potential buyers and investors. Colliers International Hong Kong Database: consists of 20,000 prospective purchasers many of whom have an appetite to invest in Australian property.

PHASE THREE: VIP LAUNCH WEEKEND 2 Days (March 2022) By Phase 3, we would have generated a high number of warm leads for your project, and this will be the first opportunity for these early enquiries to book an appointment to view the completed display suite. During their appointment, the buyer will have the opportunity to finalise their choice of apartment and complete a sales advice with a $5,000 holding deposit. The contract will be issued to their solicitor on Monday for them to review and sign with a 66W Certificate within 5 business days of the contract being issued. We will create urgency for these VIP buyers to exchange before the Grand Opening/Public Launch on the following weekend as the apartment will be back on the market to the general public. During this phase we recommend including incentives to drive urgency amongst buyers and ensure we increase market share due to the high apartment supply in the Showground precinct. These incentives can include: • • • • •
Tenant guarantee Premium finishes upgrade if buyer exchanges unconditionally within 10 business days of contract being issued $10,000 discount off purchase price if buyer exchanges unconditionally within 10 business days of contract being issued Finance package to assist buyers in obtaining finance 5% deposit on exchange paid by purchaser, with the developer to top up the remaining 5% to achieve a qualifying sale. The developer to recoup the 5% at settlement
PHASE FOUR: GRAND OPENING/PUBLIC LAUNCH WEEKEND 2 Weeks (April 2022) Phase 4 will be the first time the general public will have access to the display suite. Between Phase 3 and Phase 4, we will continue to generate more enquiry via our ‘Coming Soon’ campaign to secure appointments with prospective purchasers to view the display and to ultimately secure an appointment with a $5,000 holding deposit and completed sales advice. During Phase 4, we will commence our ‘Now Selling’ campaign with the project officially on the market to the general public. This will create urgency for those VIP buyers who have expressed interest on the VIP Launch Weekend to exchange prior to the Public Launch or the apartment will be placed back on the market. Prior to the Grand Opening/ Public Launch Weekend and throughout the Coming Soon campaign, Colliers will be capturing all data and entering into our CRM system, providing instant dashboard analytics of interest in specific product types, aspects, price points, etc. to have this information at our fingertips will ensure that we maximise pricing and that we can also manipulate and strategically distribute evenly the interest on the various product types.
P H AS E F I V E : S TAG E - O N E S E L L T H R O U G H 18 Months - 24 Months (March 2022 - March 2024) Following the Grand Opening/Public Launch Weekend, the project will be officially open to the public with Now Selling messaging across all advertising and dedicated open home hours each week and continued advertising on Domain.com.au and RealEstate.com.au, as well as on-site signage and social media.

Colliers Exclusive CRM System PA R T I C L E L E A D M A N AG E M E N T Colliers Residential introduced the Particle Lead Management tool to sales agents in early 2018, after experiencing failings with previous lead management systems that did not maximise each enquiries potential.
There are a total of 130 sales agents nationally using Particle across 7 different and dynamic markets. These teams provide ongoing feedback on the app, allowing the application to adapt and improve to each micro and macro market nationally.
Designed by industry experts, in conjunction with Colliers, Particle is an automatic lead distribution and management tool which provides a simplistic way to capture and manage leads. Previous system relied ongoing data entry by sales agents to management potential purchasers. Whilst this is an aspect of the Particle application, Particle focuses on the outcome of each communication with the lead and enables Colliers and Vendors with buyer journey from enquiry to sale.
Since the introduction of Particle, Colliers has seen a 45% reduction in the time agents first connect with prospect buyers, a 25% increased in qualified leads with 100% of completed data fields. For Colliers clients, this essentially means more sales from less leads. Colliers sales agents are now equipped with a tool which can connect and interact with buyers in a far more streamlined and efficient manner. Clients have full transparency of lead outcomes and buyer journeys through real time reporting and enables each and every prospect buyer to be thoroughly informed of the relevant project.
Addition features include: •
Prompts to follow-up previous leads
•
Integration with Outlook for appointments
•
Automated text & email communications to buyers.
•
Transparent reporting for Colliers and clients with includes performance indicators on each project and agent.
