Australia and the Asian exodus With increasingly cosmopolitan cities, a lauded education system and one of the world’s most robust economies; Australia has been touted as a land of opportunity for some time. | !" LIAM ARAN BARNES

L

abelled the ‘lucky country’, Australia has experienced uninterrupted annual GDP growth for almost three decades due, by and large, to the structural reforms of the 1980s and mining boom. The country’s prime pillar sector is slated to slow down somewhat in the coming years, but while this decline has been anticipated and is unlikely to be a major cause for concern, it does mean investors may start to look towards Australia’s residential property market as a viable alternative. Yet it’s not just domestic entrepreneurs who are seeking investment opportunities in the country’s bourgeoning real estate sector, a rising number of Asian HNWIs are also choosing the triple A-rated safe haven as a place to purchase property. “Investing in bricks and mortar has always appealed, it is not subject to the fluctuations of the stock market and despite the global financial crisis, prices have grown on average,” Tony Leong, New South Wales head of Savills’ China desk says. “Combined yields and capital value appreciation typically range in the region of five to seven percent per annum which makes it favourable when compared to other major investment destinations globally.” The potential for a significant influx of Asian investment at the high-end of the market was further boosted by the Foreign Investment Review Board’s (FIRB) introduction last November of a new visa category - the Significant Investment Visa - which, amongst other benefits, entitles foreign nationals who invest a minimum of AU$5 million

(US$5.25 million) during a four-year period to temporary residency and the option to purchase existing dwellings, rather than being restricted to new-builds and off-plan properties. The most prominent Asian buyers currently investing in luxury residential property hail primarily from Singapore, Hong Kong, both of which have endured the introduction of significant cooling measures over the last 12 months, and, of course, China. Mainland China is the fastest growing investor in the country’s property market, spending more than AU$60 billion (US$62.54 billion) since 2007, and AU$4.093 billion (US$4.27 billion) through the 2011/2012 investment year, according to the FIRB. “Enquiries to date have ranged from small sized residential property developments around AU$5-10 million (US$5.27-10.44 million) up to office buildings in the region of AU$300 million (US$313 million),â€? Leong says. “Looking to the future I don’t expect this to slow down, particularly with the Australian Government’s introduction of the new Significant Investment Visa‌ the purpose of which is to provide a boost to the Australian economy and, in particular, to attract Chinese investors.â€? The Chinese market is so strong that some Australia-based developers are now holding launches through the mainland and Hong Kong. Frasers Property is one of the latest firms to target the new breed of wealthy investors, pitching its new Penthouse Collection in key Chinese cities, recently. “The Asian market plays a significant part in our business,â€? Frasers Property Australia CEO Guy Pahor says. “Although we continue to design primarily for the local market, savvy Asian investors are seeking us out.â€? The collection includes the Perth-based Queens Riverside and the Sky at One Central Park Penthouses and Lumiere Tri-Level Penthouses projects, both located in Sydney.


“Sydney is Australia’s most globally recognisable city and is a magnet for commerce due to its international connections. However, unlike most major cities, there’s not enough supply to cater to residential demand,” he says. “On a national level, Australia skated through the global financial crisis and, unlike the US, avoided a housing bubble, making it a pretty attractive place to invest.” Pahor continues to reel off an enviable series of factors driving foreign investment, not only in Sydney’s residential market but also the country’s latest boom cities Perth and Brisbane. The nation’s celebrated education system, in which a large number of Asian student are enrolled, is near the top of the list and many developers, including Frasers, have considered this when undertaking recent projects. “The country education sector is rapidly coming on to people’s radar and our Central Park development, which is smack in the middle of Sydney’s education belt, includes purpose-built student housing,” Pahor explains. “This allows the property to fulfill two functions - provide accommodation for children studying abroad, while also offering a sound investment opportunity.” With the number of HNWIs across Asia expected to increase 88 percent over the next decade, according the Knight Frank’s Wealth Report, and the increasing number now choosing Australia over unpredictable investment destinations such as the US and Europe, Frasers is by no means alone in targeting this rapidly emerging market. FKP — whose portfolio includes

properties in New South Wales and Queensland — also recently embarked on the construction of two prime location luxury developments. The LUXE project, with its proximity to Sydney Harbour and the city’s CBD, has already sold 70 percent of its units, however, it is The Milton Residences, situated in Brisbane - the capital of Australia’s fastest growing region Queensland - that has garnered significant overseas interest. “Foreign investors consider Brisbane a safe haven for investment property and also a viable option to complement investments in their own countries,” FKP director of development Mark Jewell says. “The Milton offers the best of options for Brisbane as it’s well located nearby public transport, universities, schools, employment hubs, restaurants, shops and cafés. Combined with high quality level of finishes The Milton is an attractive proposition for overseas purchasers.” While Sydney’s property sector has historically attracted the lion’s share of foreign investors, the good news for domestic developers appears to be that, due to the FIRB’s recent leniency and economic acceleration of cities such as Perth and Brisbane, Asia’s expanding swathes of HNWIs are set to boost real estate markets throughout the nation for the foreseeable future.

>.'&/00'$&)/2.+ Even the most beautifully decorated room can fail to hit the right style notes if the lighting is not in sync with the dĂŠcor. Garish halogen lighting can sap carefully planned decorative touches out of a room. The correct lighting has not only a practical function, but offers a chance to showcase eye catching pieces of art from top designers. Practical spotlights and halogen ceiling lights are a must in work areas, but in other rooms a wide range of chandeliers, pendants, wall sconces, table and floor lamps give you room to experiment. Statement lighting can also help to create a warmer and more calming atmosphere, as well as creating a dazzling first impression upon entering the room. Lighting can also go a long way in creating the illusion of space in city apartments where space is limited. This month, Property Report has sought out some of the most striking lighting available to consumers today.

In terms of value, Proctor points out that the restricted stock in central London means the value associated with buying an unmodernised property has reduced significantly, with unmodernised properties achieving prices on par with refurbished properties in the best locations. Price points for luxury refurbished properties in London are in most cases comparable with their newly built equivalents, but with the latter commonly offered for sale off-plan, international investors often prefer the security of a completed home. “The distinct advantage lies in seeing the end product,” Proctor explains. “New developments have the advantage of spreading the allocation of funds due to the longer time frames for completion while the development is carried out. The disadvantage being you are tied into the purchase without benefiting from using the asset. A refurbished property allows an incoming purchaser to move in and enjoy the property without any delay.” Unlike new build properties, there are few guarantees provided with a newly refurbished property, so it is recommended that a potential purchaser should instruct their own surveyor to carry out a full inspection. Certain key features are essential to consider and Proctor says it is important to know who the developer is that carried out the work as certain well known companies inherently add value to a property by associating their brand.

“As with everything, quality lies in the detailing so take your time to enquire which materials have been used, the quality of the fixtures and fittings and the level of finishes,” he says. “Our typical clients tend to be sophisticated in their taste and have a good understanding of quality. It’s important to explore the hidden elements of a refurbishment such as the type of underfloor heating, air conditioning, and to ensure that all the required permissions for alternations and works have been approved. This tends to be carried out by a qualified surveyor and through the due diligence process followed by the buyer’s solicitor in the conveyancing process.” Of course, it is still possible to invest in London properties prerenovation, and to use a local company to manage the upgrade. Proctor says there are a number of companies that carry out renovations on behalf of clients and they will provide as little or as much as is required, whether it is project management of contractors and suppliers, interior design or architectural services. “We often refer our clients to design houses who have trusted relationships with suppliers, can source materials, trades and furniture at reduced prices and pass these savings onto the client,” he says. “This expertise, although attracting a fee, often save our clients significantly both in terms of time and on the overall spend allocated to a project.
