4 In this week’s cover story, we were fortunate enough to talk exclusively to esteemed finance commentator Michael Pascoe about interest rates. Michael is visiting the Sunshine Coast in July, courtesy of the University of the Sunshine Coast, and will be speaking at the uni’s seminar, Understanding Contemporary Property, along with other key speakers. It’s such an interesting topic at this particular time, and it’s left many with home loans asking the same question: is now the time to be locking into a fixed rate? Without a crystal ball, this is a tricky one to answer – even the experts agree on that. And if you aren’t too savvy with the whole process of how interest rates rise and fall and want a quick guide to getting your head around it, our cover story on page 4 has everything you need, including advice from those in the know. Lock it in or leave it? It’s a personal choice, but the general consensus is that patience is required in the coming months as rates might just dip further. As they say, patience is a virtue. Time will tell.

cover story

In a fix by Dorothy Drane

As the official interest rate hovers around its record low of three per cent, home owners have plenty to smile about. So if you’re signing up to a new mortgage or refinancing, does it make sense to lock in your rate? Dorothy Drane goes looking for answers.

T

a home loan in the current economic climate is more like a day at the races than a business decision. And the only tip filtering through in a situation that is hanging in the balance is perhaps, maybe, possibly hold off a little longer on fixing interest rates. There is also agreement that anyone planning to take out a home loan while rates are so low should carefully consider their choice, as they can easily be lulled into a false sense of security. If you can only just make the repayments on that new loan now, you should think again, as interest rates can’t fall much further and after that, they can only go up. Right now, most home owners are opting for short-term gain on the variable rate and are not rushing to lock in their repayments, despite fixed interest mortgage rates being at their lowest in more than a decade. Whether or not they have missed out on the deal of a decade is yet to be seen. According to the Reserve Bank of Australia, the cost of a three-year fixed loan is “closest to its lowest level in at least 15 years” but with variable rates below fixed rates and borrowers expecting further cuts to come, home owners are choosing not to fix. The four largest banks are charging an average of just under six per cent for three years and half a per cent more for five years, and there is speculation that their recent increase in fixed loan rates could signal that the fixed rate market has already hit its bottom. ANZ Bank chief Mike Smith is supporting the borrowers’ move to stick with the variable rates for now, predicting that interest rates could continue to fall. He told an Australian Institute of Company Directors lunch in Brisbane this month that while the official interest rate was sitting at a 49-year low of three per cent, it could drop further, adding that he “wouldn’t be in a hurry” to fix interest rates. Finance commentator Michael Pascoe describes it as “a delicately poised equation at the moment”. “The best advice comes from the RBA, and in its quarterly statement, even it was putting a bet both ways,” he says. “There are a couple of clear messages, though, and they are that official cash rates aren’t going up any time soon and that the door has been left open for them to be cut further. He adds, “Most banks are tipping cash rates to come down further yet. While there are some promising signs on the global economy, we are

still looking at rising unemployment and as it gets towards eight per cent, the RBA will want to be seen to be doing something.” Michael says the consensus is that the cash rate could drop to two per cent or close to it, when it was already at almost an all-time low. “No one felt the last cut,” he says. “The banks kept most of it. To really be felt it needs to be 50 points, which means the RBA has only two shots left as it doesn’t want to go to a zero interest rate policy the way other countries such as the UK, the US and Japan have gone. “It only has 100 points and it will need to use them judiciously.” So, borrowers are asking themselves, to fix or not to fix? “I wish I knew,” Michael says. “If anyone tells you they know for sure they are probably lying. “My view is to have a foot in both camps. In fixing your mortgage, there is an element of insurance premium involved. It’s like taking out a bit of insurance that your repayments won’t go any higher and you are protected from a jump. If interest rates fall, then you have already paid your insurance. Right now, it’s a very difficult little bet. If anyone is so heavily indebted right now that the

The message is that official cash rates aren’t going up any time soon and that the door has been left open for them to be cut further

o fix or not to fix, that is the question on everyone’s lips as home loan interest rates plunge to record lows. But not even the experts are giving firm advice on that one, and considering there are no crystal balls offering any tips, the consensus is that nobody really knows and those who say they do are fibbing. The only certainty is that deciding what to do with

difference of half a per cent is crucial, they are in deep trouble and need to sell up and get out of debt. “Interest rates are so low that there should be plenty of buffer in borrowing. One of the first things to warn home buyers is to make sure you can afford much higher interest rates than what you are paying now.” He adds, “I don’t think they are going up any time soon, but they will in the future, so if you can only just afford to pay now, you could be in a lot of trouble in a few years’ time. Rising interest rates are a sign of a healthier economy than it is now.” Wayne Slager of Your Loan Adviser in Buderim says a good reason to fix your loan interest rate is not because you are setting out to get the cheapest rate on the market, but because you want to lock in costs so that you can budget with absolute certainty. “From a home buyer’s point of view, it gives comfort and peace of mind,” he says. “From an investor’s point of view, it is one more variable out of the investment equation.” As such, says Wayne, “I would consider fixing at this time.”

Michael Pascoe

He also believes it is a fantastic time for people to buy property. “Property is available at a reasonable price and interest rates are low,” he says. “It’s a buyer’s market in conjunction with historically low interest rates, both fixed and variable, so this helps people feel less concerned about what they choose. There is also still a good demand for rental property and rental returns are good. The position is that people can buy good property in a good location with, in some cases, it being positively geared. That’s amazing. “Now we have this fantastic opportunity, let’s finetune it – variable or fixed, you can have a bet each way for no extra cost so put a foot in both camps.” Wayne believes that getting a loan is not like buying a cardigan from a department store. “If you don’t like it, you can’t take it back, especially if it’s a fixed rate, so my advice is, once you make a decision, look forward and don’t look back. A fixed rate gives certainty, so just view it in the same way you would an insurance premium on which you hope never to have to make a claim.” Wayne also advises caution when doing the sums on repayment while interest rates are so low. “If you do take a loan now, be sure that you can afford to pay a much higher rate than what you are paying, because one certainty is that it will surely go up in the future. “If that is the maximum you can afford, you are had it. You must have a buffer between what you are paying now and what can pay in the end.” Director of Eastern Financial Solutions Brad Nolan says each borrower’s situation is different and while fixed rates may work for some, variable rates may work for others. He adds that for anyone thinking of fixing, now could be the right time to do it. “Unless there is an understanding put in place between the major banks, the Federal Government and the Reserve Bank of Australia, to pass on any possible future interest rate cuts, the Reserve Bank may be inclined to leave interest rates where they are, which could mean rates will not go any lower,” he says. “Personally, I am holding out for further cuts later in 2009, but no one really has a crystal ball.”

Interest rates for beginners It all starts at the Reserve Bank of Australia, which, as well as being the Federal Government’s banker and foreign reserves manager, tells the Mint how much money to make and controls how much money circulates in the economy. Keeping an eye on the state of the economy, the RBA regularly reviews interest rates, adjusting them in an effort to keep inflation low and stable. It releases money to financial institutions, which pay interest for use of the RBA’s money. The official cash rate sets how much interest they will pay to the RBA. Interest is the cost of money, plus risk, plus profit and this is all taken into consideration when the banks make home loans. The interest rate to you is decided by what banks must pay the RBA, plus allow for their risk and profit. And these are risky times. The RBA will respond to the economic times and adjust its rates – and ultimately yours – to influence inflation, the currency’s stability, employment, the CPI and retail sales levels. It drops rates to encourage spending or increases them to slow inflation. Since last September, the official cash rate has fallen 4.25 percentage points to its lowest level in almost 50 years – from 7.25 to three per cent. The RBA says that unlike many countries, most of this reduction has been passed on to borrowers.

Basic variable • This is the no-frills lowest interest rate available. • Terms are usually 25 to 30 years. • Can attract monthly fees. • Most will allow extra repayments. Standard variable • This is the most popular mortgage. • The rate is higher than the basic and repayments go up and down with market movement. • Can incorporate benefits including free savings account, credit card and offset. • Terms are usually 25 to 30 years. Fixed rate • The interest rate is fixed when you sign up. Terms are usually one to five years but can be extended. • Most lenders allow extra repayments, but will not allow redraw until the fixed rate term has expired

Changing the terms of your loan can be a costly exercise, and each financial institution varies slightly in the fees charged for changing a loan from variable to fixed, and from fixed to variable. It is advised you consult your financial institution for information about the costs incurred for changing your loan.

Own your home sooner Anyone who’s paying off a mortgage can’t wait for the day when they will finally be free of debt. We give you eight tips on how to get off the mortgage merry-go-round and pay off your home loan sooner.

Get a head start

How low can you go?

Re- and easy

The simplest way to reduce your home loan is to pay a bigger deposit when you buy your home in the first place. If you are yet to buy a home, start saving the deposit as soon as possible – these good budgeting habits will also help you once you do have a mortgage. If you have a loan, reassess if it is still the right one for you. Does it let you make extra repayments or will you be penalised for paying it off early? Are you paying for features you just don’t need or do you need more flexibility? Consider consolidating your accounts to save on fees. Talk to your lender to get answers to these questions and to find out about ways to save money on your loan.

How do the interest rates on your chosen loan compare to others? You might be able to save thousands on your loan if you opt for one that has a competitive rate. But be careful – ‘honeymoon’ or ‘introductory’ loans might sound good, but the savings tend to be short-lived, and when the honeymoon is over, you could be stuck with an expensive loan. When shopping around for a loan, look at all types of lenders, such as credit unions, building societies, banks and non-bank lenders. Mortgages with the lowest rates of interest may not be the most heavily promoted, and mortgage brokers might not offer all of them. You have to shop around yourself and not rely solely on the experts’ advice.

If you find a better deal on a mortgage than the one you have, you might want to consider refinancing. But before you do anything, be sure that you will be better off with the new loan by taking into account the costs associated with switching. These may include termination fees for exiting your loan early. And don’t forget the fees and costs associated with the new loan, such as application and legal fees and stamp duty. Before refinancing, ask your current lender if it can match the best deal you can find or offer you a better one. If you do change, ask the new lender to waive the fees to secure your business. But avoid brokers or sales staff who try to pressure you into switching loans – they might not have your best interests at heart.

Top redraw

Going off

A redraw facility allows you to make extra payments and then n withdraw them if you need to. That means you can put your ‘rainy rainy day’ money into your mortgage, knowing you can get it out again gain or leave it there to pay your loan off sooner. You can use a redraw raw to save money for a car or a holiday. Loans with this facility are re becoming common, but be careful that you don’t end up paying ng more for the privilege. Remember that redraw facilities often come with a fee for each withdrawal, and there’ll be a limit on how much you can redraw and how many times a year you can use it.

A mortgage offset can save interest on your loan. With an offset, your mortgage is linked to a savings account where your pay and other cash can be deposited and from which you withdraw money to pay bills. The cash in this account ‘offsets’ your mortgage and you pay the interest on your loan amount, less the cash amount in the account. For example, if you pay interest on a $300,000 loan and you have $10,000 sitting in your offset account, you’ll only pay interest on $290,000. Mortgage offset loans can attract a higher interest rate and may come with charges. A 100 per cent offset means your cash earns the same rate of interest as you pay on your loan, but many offsets are partial. Be sure to crunch the numbers to see if you can deposit enough so that the offset will be worthwhile.

Extra, extra! Most mortgages on a home require the borrower to pay the loan’s principal and interest. In a typical 25-year mortgage, for the first several years, most of your payments go to pay off the interest. So any extra payments you make in this time will greatly cut your interest bill and shorten the life of your loan. If you are still in the early days of your mortgage and you get a Christmas bonus or an unexpected tax cheque, put it straight on your loan. First though, check if you are allowed to make extra payments, and if there are any fees for doing so. If you can and the fees for paying off your mortgage early are low, this is a great way to shorten the life of a loan and save you money.

Wise buys

Don’t take the fall

An easy way to make extra repayments on your loan is to take your monthly repayment, halve it and then pay that amount each fortnight. Because there are 26 fortnights but only 12 months in a year, paying fortnightly equates to making an extra month’s repayment every year. ear. Over the years, these extra repayments will build up to thousands of dollars saved and years shaved off your loan. Small lifestyle changes, like not buying lunch and making your coffee at work rather than heading to the cafe for a caffeine fix, can save $20 or $30 a week. It seems small, but pop that on your loan and you’ll notice a difference in the long run.

Leaving your payments unchanged when interest rates fall is a form of enforced saving and a terrific way to get the loan paid off fast. If you have a variable loan, check with your lender to see whether it automatically reduces your minimum autom rep repayment when interest rates fall. If it i does, you can nominate a higher repayment amount or ask the lender to leave your repayment unchanged, so the fall in rates helps he reduce your loan term, inste of your repayment. instead

Land ahead PART 2 by Dorothy Drane

Last week My Property Review brought you the first part in a series on the historic Grigor farm near Maleny. In this second and final installment, Dorothy Drane looks at the farm’s future and the opportunities it offers to buyers. t’s the end of an era for the Grigor family, which, after five generations working the land on their Conondale Valley farm, are selling up and moving on. After the State Government resumed a 40,000-acre lease the family had held for more than 100 years, their days as farmers are now over. Arguably the largest private landholding on the Sunshine Coast, Maleny Valley Station is 3000 acres of gently undulating clean country on the Mary River, which commands views of the Conondale State Forest and National Park. It is being offered for sale on 14 different titles, which, as a whole, represent an opportunity to run a commercial beef and dairy operation or diversify into a stud for thoroughbred

I

breeding, spelling and training. Alternatively, the allotments can be bought individually for lifestyle or accommodation where absolute privacy is guaranteed. “You can have the feeling of being miles from anywhere, but at the same time you are close to Maleny and Montville shopping villages,” Damien Michael of Ken Guy Maroochydore says. “It is about being close to fine restaurants and just over an hour from the Brisbane airport, while living on one of the largest areas of privately owned rainforest in South-East Queensland. “It is an opportunity to buy a piece of history. It’s a trophy property,” Damien adds. Part of the fifth and final generation of farmers, Vaughan Grigor now sees the

land as lifestyle blocks and the location makes them suitable for cabin stays, although it could also be purchased as a whole. “It’s still a big farm. You don’t see many of this size in South-East Queensland,” Vaughan says. “The overheads are a lot less for horticulture. There are a number of different things you could do if you chose to make it an occupation.” With one of the largest areas of privately owned rainforest in SouthEast Queensland, it could be a showcase rural development or with its streams, waterfalls and palm-filled valleys, it is a perfect retreat for bushwalking and birdwatching. Another hidden treasure of the property is the stands of red cedar, the

LOWEST FEES

highly coveted timber that put Maleny on the map in the late 19th century. “It’s the getaway with it all,” Vaughan says. “I am sure others will enjoy it all as much as my family has over the centuries.” PROPERTY: • Maleny Valley Station • 3000 acres on 14 titles • Seven houses • Lush pastures • Natural untouched timber • Dairy and beef farm infrastructure including fencing • Gazetted roads • High rainfall region with irrigation licences and unlimited ground water • Between Conondale National Park and Maleny

We give you the lowdown on timber floors. alk into any home built in the past 50 years and subfloor system but over the existing solid floor. Floating you can probably date it by its original floor. timber floors can be placed on any existing flooring, Homes built in the ’60s and early ’70s sported such as structural timber floors, concrete, tiles or floors decorated in small mosaic tiles, often in hues of plywood.

Bamboo is a renewable resource that grows faster than timber and because it doesn’t expand or contract like timber, is much more stable. Bamboo flooring is pre-finished and there are a range of style and colours on the market. Like floating timber floors, bamboo can be installed over existing floors. If you think of macramé and fondue parties when you think of cork tiles, think again. Like timber, cork is a natural fibre and like lino it has come a long way since the ’70s. Cork is a softer, warmer floor covering than traditional timber, and is easy to clean and maintain. There are many DIY options when it comes to timber floors, so if you are going to lay this floor yourself, it pays to research. Be absolutely sure that the floor you choose is right for you and you have the skills to get it right. Even if you do hire a professional, though, a little homework is required.

glass shelves to rest liqueurs on. Bar stools are also an important part – make sure you consider the right heights and be sure to fix a foot rail to the bottom of your bar. Also be sure to allow adequate room behind the bar so it doesn’t get cramped. If it is a freestanding bar that you are attaching to a wall, fix it so if you sell the house, you can take the bar with you!

Todd’s response: Scotty this is magnificent news. A bar at your place – certainly something that needs plenty of planning and cannot be rushed. Firstly I think you should start with the research department. Get yourself a digi camera, pick a team of professional researchers (ie your buddy Craig – everyone knows a bloke called Craig) and your brother-inlaw, call up the courtesy bus for your local and get cracking! In my estimation you will need to go ‘on location’ to at least two dozen pubs over a two-day period, taking photos of the main bar, the betting facilities and the bistro.

DIY chicken parmies and drank the equivalent of three swimming pools of beer, head home to consult with your research team as you analyse the data collected. Scott, if you need an addition to the team I’ll be happy to head up the research and development sector and together we’ll build you a bar to be proud of! Dave’s response: Hey Scotty, great to hear you’re ready to take the next step and make your life complete by adding a bar to your games room. Many years ago I faced a similar problem, except I was adding a games room to my bar. When doing any DIY project it’s important to cut as many corners as you can, so go the cheap and easy option. Or as we like to call it ‘the Charmyne Palavi’. And just like Charmyne, get it knocked up quickly. The

longer it takes, the more it cuts into your drinking time. Keep an eye out for a couple of secondhand 180-litre fridges. These will become the ‘legs’ of your bar. Drop a garden paver on to the top of each fridge and then lay a piece of trestle or solid timber down to connect the two and there you have it, the cheapest and easiest bar on the Coast. Have fun holding court, Scotty. Your honour, may I approach the bar? DIY questions solved! Email us your DIY query (or blunder) and if you are chosen you will receive handy (or not-so handy) advice straight from Jade, Dave and Todd. Listen to HOT FM on Friday mornings and have your advice published in MPR. Simply email your entry to: home@mypropertyreview.com.au to enter. Disclaimer: This information is offered as advice only. Licensed tradesmen should always be consulted. Editor’s note: Dave and Todd’s responses should be considered as entertainment only.

KNOW OF A DIY BLUNDER? I was quite amused watching my very un-handy husband’s attempt at building a brick mailbox for our family home. He was adament it was going to be really easy, and in typical ‘male’ fashion, he decided not to read the instructions on the concrete bag properly. His first attempt saw him mix the quick-set concrete in my laundry bucket but it went off in minutes (was for posts I think) before he could use it. I now have a bucket full of concrete with a big stirring stick poking out of it. He stormed off to the hardware store to buy a different concrete and this time failed to read the instructions – again. Turns out he had too much water in the concrete, which wasn’t apparent until the weight of the bricks started to push the concrete out from between each brick. We now have a very innovative curved and warped mailbox which has become quite the joke amongst our neighbours.

Quick and easy timber f oors hese stunning Ausgum timber tiles are a very quick and easy way to transform any outdoor or indoor area. Made from mixed Australian hardwood timber, the tiles will easily go over the top of most level surfaces, proving to be a very quick and easy alternative to decking – especially if you’re dealing with an area with a restricted height. The tiles easily lock in place with a plastic connector and you can create a range of crisscross patterns or lay them in a

T

line like traditional decking. You can always replace or re-lay them and even take them with you if you move house. The tiles come in a pack of four (each 495 x 495 x 30 millimetres high) and retail for around $89 for the pack. Visit your nearest Bunnings store to find out more.

At Unique Coastal Homes we are dedicated to providing the perfect balance of practically and function to your design. Dealing with one licensed builder from start to finish will give you peace of mind that your biggest investment is in safe hands.

Eye for detail Designed with pride, the newest Ryan Designer home meets all sensory expectations.

nspired by resort elegance and poised overlooking the wide canal waterfront, the latest stunning display home by the award-winning Ryan Designer Homes team has a wealth of unique design features that will make you want to move in today. Its Singaporean influences and the way the design flows easily between the indoor and outdoor living spaces are reminiscent of Ralph Lauren’s stylish and opulent but classic resort design. There is incredible craftsmanship in the hand-finished details throughout the home, such as the fretwork in the outdoor pavilion lattice work, which was painstakingly hand woven by owner-builder Pat Ryan. The longer you look around the home, the more you see in its finely balanced design. The home is sensory yet functional – the high ceilings create light-filled rooms that also bring in the breeze and reduce the need to close up the house, yet it’s complete with fully ducted air-conditioning throughout. Highly practical features include a ducted vacuum system, spacious 2.5-bay double garage for storage and a superior security system. In Ryan Designer Homes’ trademark style, the home’s open plan is carefully designed for privacy and enables large family living in individual areas. The soft sound of running water is calming as you step through the suspended timber front door surrounded by frameless glass. The central pool and tropical gardens, hallway and lofty living area draw design influences

Views from inside extend to the elaborate decks and beyond to the canal outlook from a waterfront viewing terrace. The 428-square metre open-plan layout accentuates how well the house has been planned to provide family or personal space so everyone has room to relax. The huge slider stacker doors open to create a combined indoor/outdoor space and the five-metre ceilings offer a heightened sense of resort living. Special attention has been given to the innovative design of the fully equipped gourmet kitchen overlooking the water, so that it serves as a place to both prepare for and enjoy a family gathering. Renowned for their eye for detail and passion for innovative interiors and design elements, husband and wife team Pat and Petrina Ryan sourced ideas and materials for this home from around the world. The reintroduced concept of built-in window seats with bifold windows invites people to relax, and a unique joinery fixture that floats through the wall from the ensuite to the master bedroom was purpose built, based on furniture Petrina saw during on an international hotel stay. Mirrored feature walls, deep ochre polished wood floors, unique fittings and artistic partitioning pieces all add to this luxury property’s level of style and sophistication for the Sunshine Coast market.

new home & land

Family-friendly homes for sale

Woombye

Four Stockland communities are offering great mid-level buys.

The Boardwalk

our premier Coast communities are offering a range of stylish familysized home and land packages suitable for mid-level property buyers. Stockland has a range of family home packages available at Brightwater at Mountain Creek, The Boardwalk at Coolum, Doonella Noosa at Noosaville, and Woodgrove in the hinterland. The packages include a selection of large four-bedroom, two-bathroom homes with some on spacious allotments of more than 700 square metres. Stockland’s regional manager for the Sunshine Coast, Nick Wellwood, says the latest packages represent excellent value for some of the Coast’s most desirable addresses. Nick says Stockland’s final land releases for the current financial year are selling quickly with packaged home and land solutions especially popular. “While there has been a strong focus on firsthome buyers in the property market, we are also seeing demand from secondand third-home buyers looking to upgrade their homes,’’ he says. “The current low interest rates and excellent product choices mean it is not only first-home buyers who are enjoying great buying conditions at the moment. Growing families looking for more space also have the opportunity to get into a brand-new home in a quality Stockland community in locations such as Coolum and Noosaville.” For example, Doonella Noosa has a four-bedroom, two-bathroom home with a north-easterly aspect and within an easy walk of the lake on 664 square metres for $498,000. Doonella Noosa is an exclusive natural enclave on the shores of Lake Doonella with easy access to Hastings Street, the Noosa Civic retail precinct,

premium golf courses and the beach. The community is also within a short walking distance of St Teresa’s Catholic College. At The Boardwalk in Coolum, several family home and land packages are available, including a three-bedroom, two-bathroom home with double garage and ample storage, on a 510-square metre beachside block for $578,500. The Boardwalk is one of the Sunshine Coast’s few remaining genuine beachside addresses, with no main roads to cross to reach the beach and located a short drive to the restaurants and cafes of Coolum. Stockland’s Brightwater community at Mountain Creek also has a choice of family home and land packages suitable for mid-level buyers. The packages include a four-bedroom, two-bathroom home with media room and ducted air-conditioning on a 720-square metre allotment for $563,600. Brightwater is a new family-friendly community featuring lush green surrounds and located moments from the beaches of Mooloolaba and Kawana. Stockland’s Woodgrove community at Beerwah has several family-sized home and land packages available, including a four-bedroom, two-bathroom home on 698 square metres for only $393,205. The package also includes floor coverings and turf to the front yard. Woodgrove is within walking distance of the Beerwah train station and local shopping and close to Australia Zoo and an 18-hole golf course. Families are well catered for with the Beerwah state primary school and high school, as well as the Glasshouse Country Christian College close by. The Bella Grace Early Learning Centre is also right next door. For more information, drop in at the communities’ sales and information centres or visit www.stockland.com.au.
