SEYCHELLES ON OUR SEA SHORE
C
onstruction of the luxury $17M ‘Seychelles on Pacific’ development located at 102 Pacific Parade, Bilinga is well & truly under way and is virtually sold out. David Stringer who handled the sale of the 607m2 site to Pacific View 102 Pty Ltd (Greg Smith) for $2.850M in February 2018, was retained as Project Marketing Agent and successfully sold 8 out of the 9 apartments, before ground was broken.
Tugun down to Rainbow Bay has so much more buyer demand to fulfil and as such, we expect many more new projects to be released during the next year or so. Seychelles is being built by Robina based GCB Constructions and is scheduled for completion late 2020.
Whilst Mr Smith plans to retain the 9th apartment for his personal use or wait until completion before contemplating selling, he did advise that he would part with the 306m2, entire level apartment for $2.450M. David advises that ‘demand for boutique style apartments especially along the ‘golden mile’ (Pacific Parade) is extremely strong and this has been evident with the sell-out of similar projects we have been involved in at 96 & 174 Pacific Parade as well as other property sales over the last few years. We simply can't get enough stock to satisfy demand and this is a similar trait across the entire Southern coastline. Whilst Palm Beach itself has seen a large number of new buildings go up & perhaps has had its day in the sun, the region from

fixated with this beautiful location. Coupled with world class beaches and ripping point breaks just around the corner, plus the fact that it is on the fringe of Coolangatta, Rainbow Bay would have to be the one of the most desired destinations on our map’.
Marketing Agent David Stringer advised that he wasn’t surprised with the response and fantastic result, as homes in this pocket are extremely rare & tightly held.

David also comments that ‘Rainbow Bay has its own ‘micro market’ with buyers
A
highly exposed CBD Commercial property situated on the corner of Griffith St & Dutton St has been placed on the market, with offers being sought over $1.950M. The former St George Bank building provides 295m2 of lettable space over 2 levels and is positioned on a prime 202m2 freehold allotment, virtually adjacent to the beach.
COOLANGATTA LANDMARK COMMERCIAL BUILDING UP FOR SALE Commercial Sales Consultant Peter Antony from DJ Stringer Commercial comments that ‘freehold properties in the centre of Coolangatta are tightly held and this property represents a wonderful opportunity for an investor & or owner occupier to capitalise on the brilliant position. Seldom do properties of this calibre hit the market and the seller will also consider leasing options for those looking to cement their business in the main business district’.
TWEED HOME SOLD & SET TO MAKE WAY FOR NEW APARTMENTS LEADING PROPERTY MANAGERS RANK NUMBER 1 AGAIN
T
he well-oiled property management team at DJ Stringer are set to break their own record leasing over 325 properties for the calendar year, which included a whopping month in October of which they leased 51 properties alone.
A
warm & welcoming home that would rival the Brady bunch abode situated at 2 Ivory Cres, Tweed Heads / Greenbank, has just been sold for well over $1m by local property expert David Stringer. David advised that ‘the demand for the vintage 3 bedroom residence set on a prime 746m2 corner allotment, was extremely strong from both owner occupiers and developers, as the current zoning allowed re-development up to 7 levels. Properties in this super convenient location are so sought after and with good reason, as the Tweed Hospital, Shopping Mall & Bowls Club, are within a few minutes stroll and is also just 5 minutes to Gold Coast beaches’.
Office Manager Tammy Stringer, reported that ‘we have such a great team that supports each other and the regular positive feedback from both tenants & property owners has been overwhelming. With a portfolio of well over 1000 properties under management that is growing every day, we are constantly streamlining procedures, providing a hospitable service to our tenants & ensuring investors are achieving maximum return. Combined with our strong leasing team & cross pollination from our sales department, there is no reason why investors should not have their property managed by us, as we simply do it better. We cater for all calibre of property from budget units to executive homes & span the entire Southern Gold Coast coastline & Northern Rivers regions’. Tammy predicts that more rental accommodation will be available during 2020 as investors will continue to reap the rewards with low interest rates, increasing rents and strong tenancy demand.
The purchaser, who remains anonymous at this point in time, plans to rent the home out before considering to develop the site in the near future into boutique apartments.
