There’s no denying that the economy/real estate market is a hot topic at the watercooler, and with the US sub-prime disaster and historically the worst stock market crash ever, you have to wonder how it will affect us. On a local level, some are saying it’s time to buy now, while others are saying it’s time to sit and watch, but without a crystal ball we really don’t know whether now is the absolute ideal time to buy property. Will we be kicking ourselves in six months once the market has moved again? Probably. With that, an old adage comes to mind: ‘It’s not timing the market, it’s time in the market’ or in a quote I read this week from real estate trend researcher Terry Ryder, who said, “Typically, when there is a change in the property market cycle, most people do the opposite of what makes sense – they get ‘spooked’ and follow the herd mentality. History shows that successful investors buck the trend and capitalise on the market conditions by buying at times like these.” Which one are you?

Do you want infrastructure with that? PART 3
by Julie Gatehouse
It’s all hands on deck for infrastructure on the Sunshine Coast, as the three tiers of government band together to bring essential services in line with our phenomenal population growth. So what projects are in the works, and how much is being spent on our region? Julie Gatehouse finds out in part three of our series. Former professional rugby league footballer Tim Dwyer grew up on the Sunshine Coast. At 18 he wanted to buy a house but could only afford a block of dirt at Glasshouse, which he kept for 10 years, then “stupidly sold” for about $30,000. “I’d doubled my money but I got the offer on it when I was overseas and if I’d thought more strategically I would have saved it,” he says with a smile. “I used to know every second person on Bulcock Street,” the 45-year-old adds. “I still love Caloundra. My wife Kelli and I have renovated our house at Moffat Beach.” Before that Tim lived in Brisbane, Sydney, London and Darwin, working as a storeman, postman, rugby league coach and development officer, courier, salesman and pub manager. Now, as deputy mayor of the Sunshine Coast Regional Council, he’s in the front-row battle
for our future. Just like footy, this match is all about careful strategy – and sufficient support when it comes to the crunch. Analysts and planners say that crunch time is now for our stretch of coast and hinterland. So far our infrastructure has not kept pace with rapid growth in recent decades. “We’re definitely in catch-up mode,” says Tim, who adds that his travels have helped him appreciate the need to nurture the Coast’s individual potential while avoiding other regions’ mistakes. However, he says the three tiers of government have their eyes on the ball, aiming to develop a comprehensive strategy for where future development should occur on the Coast, of what type, and what infrastructure will be required. The planning involves consultation with the general public as well as land owners and developers. David Oliver of the Urban Development
Institute of Australia (Qld) says everyone concerned has the same end goals – lifestyle protection, sustainability (economic, employment and environmental) and housing affordability in a healthy property market. (MPR will address in more detail how developers see our future in part four next week.) Premier Anna Bligh says the State Government is fasttracking its planning for several Sunshine Coast greenfield areas, meaning suitable sites within the urban footprint, as part of a state-wide plan to improve housing affordability. “I want to see land being turned into new homes for Queenslanders as quickly as humanly possible,” the Premier says. “This is about cutting red tape and bottlenecks that are delaying the development process.” The State is investing $18.1 billion in infrastructure on the Coast to 2026. A state Infrastructure Department spokesman
6 My Property Review | October 3, 2008
Page 6.indd 1
1/10/2008 3:05:21 PM
says the projected slowdown in Coast population growth to 2.1 per cent a year until 2031 will mean that infrastructure must be in place before greenfield land is developed. “The Coast provides many opportunities for infill development – new development within established urban areas where the site is either vacant or previously used for another urban purpose,” the spokesman says. “This allows more people to be accommodated without increasing urban sprawl. “It relieves pressures on good-quality agricultural land, environmentally sensitive areas and scenic hinterlands. It enables people to live closer to jobs and facilities, helping reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and more compact towns will be more water- and energy- efficient.” Maroochydore is already committed to mixed-use growth as the region’s principal activity centre, but the other greenfield areas are at our southern end. Tim and David say this effectively targets population growth for Caloundra South (known as Caloundra Downs), Palmview, and Meridan Plains, which already has a development application with the council. The State wants to make Caloundra South and Palmview (east of the Bruce Highway at Ettamogah Pub extending north to Sippy Downs) ‘developer ready’ by mid-2009.
The State Government says its SEQ Infrastructure Plan includes millions of dollars for projects to help achieve these “well-planned and integrated communities”, as well as supporting growth across the Coast. In addition to major transport projects, as outlined last week, the SEQ Plan lists many more in vital areas such as water, health and energy. (See fact box on page 8.) The council’s 2008-09 budget allocates the following on infrastructure: $212 million on capital works (including $44 million in developer-contributed assets) and $17.5 million on key operational projects. This includes work on local roads, waste management (the resource recovery centres at Nambour and Coolum), waterways, coastal infrastructure, heritage and tourism, council land and the Clever Networks information technology project in conjunction with the State. The Federal Government, in addition to grants and roads funding, has selected the Sunshine Coast as one of nine national areas to benefit from its new Better Regions program to improve local infrastructure. It has also set up a body called Infrastructure Australia to audit the nation’s transport, energy, communications and water infrastructure. Anyone from the public or business community can nominate projects for
consideration on a new National Priority List. The deadline is October 15. (Visit www.infrastructureaustralia.gov.au.) Tim Dwyer says Caloundra South could become the granddaddy of new housing in our region, with 20,000 residents by 2031 and up to 50,000 ultimately. “This depends on planning and what densities we want to see,” he says. It also will include retail and commercial uses. The huge new community will be part of the new integrated transport system, with a focus on public transport such as the CAMCOS rail project, and will need ample traditional infrastructure such as power and waste disposal. For water and sewerage provision, Tim says Caloundra’s local growth management strategy stipulates that its supply and/or treatment must be sufficient to ensure “no loss of capacity to existing communities”. Tim says there will also be a greater emphasis on social and innovative infrastructure – around the new master-planned areas as well as thriving Coast commercial, retail, industrial and residential centres such as Caloundra, Maroochydore, Sippy Downs, Kawana, Noosa, Nambour and Beerwah. “Communities need sporting clubs, meeting halls, libraries, open space,” he says. “What about community gardens? We’re a family-oriented place and we must maintain our lifestyle as the population increases.” One of the council’s signature infrastructure projects is completion of the popular coastal pathway from Bells Creek to Noosa. The goal is mixed-use, self-contained communities where people can live, work and play without having to jump into the car to buy a litre of milk. “We must make sure we provide infrastructure to expand our employment opportunities so people who live here can work here,” Tim adds. The infrastructure he means is power, water and IT, along with education, health, entertainment and recreational facilities including accessible open space. Examples are Kawana’s proposed new hospital and deciding on the appropriate location for a major sports stadium complex with a rectangular field for league, union and soccer. “We have an ageing demographic. We can’t keep losing our younger workforce or we’ll lose people who grew up knowing the essence of the Coast.” Tim hopes the new infrastructure planning will herald an end to the fragmentation of the past, along with the car culture. It will take advantage of new technologies in areas such as waste management and water recycling. “We are trying to understand the intricacies and nuances of certain areas, whether it’s Maleny, Kings Beach or Peregian Beach,” he says. “Our differences will be put into an overall strategic plan for the Sunshine Coast so they can be serviced properly – built, social or natural infrastructure – and sustained into the future.”
Q. What is greenfield land? A. Undeveloped land in the urban footprint that is potentially suitable for future urban development. It is generally found on the fringes of existing urban areas. My Property Review | October 3, 2008 7

cover story MAJOR STATE INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTS: HEALTH Sunshine Coast University Hospital In June 2007, a site on Kawana Way was acquired for the $1.3 billion new hospital. The site master plan n was finished in February. Work is progressing on the business case, scheduled for completion this year. As part of this process, the hospital is being assessed for its potential as a public-private partnership project. Construction is expected to start in 2010 for opening in late 2014. Existing facilities at Caloundra dra and Nambour hospitals are being expanded ($200 million will be spent in next four years). Detailed planning is underway for a new Sunshine Coast Health Precinct at Maroochydore.
WATER Construction of the $9 billion South-East Queensland Water Grid is underway to co-ordinate use of all major bulk water sources and move water from surplus areas to shortfall areas. The grid includes:
Traveston Crossing Dam Detailed planning is underway for stage one of the $1.66 billion proposed dam, about 16 kilometres south of Gympie in the Mary River catchment. Despite ongoing controversy, the public consultation period is over, more reports are in progress and the State Government anticipates it could deliver up to 70,000 extra megalitres of water each year. For more information visit www.qwc.qld.gov.au.
Northern Pipeline Interconnector This is a 47-kilometre pipeline with the capacity to transport up to 65 million litres of water a day between the Sunshine Coast and Brisbane. Stage one, worth $850 million and now under construction, connects Landers Shute Water Treatment Plant, west of Caloundra, to the Morayfield reservoirs, where it will link with the Caboolture and Brisbane water networks. Planning for stage two involves 50 kilometres of pipeline north from Landers Shute to water treatment plants at Image Flat and Lake MacDonald near Cooroy. The aim is to develop a system capable of two-way water flow in case water ever needs to be directed to the Coast. A new $40 million water treatment plant is under construction at Ewen Maddock Dam to increase treatment capacity and provide contingency supply for the Coast.
ENERGY Electricity consumption is set to rise 3.8 per cent a year over the next decade in south-east Queensland. Most electricity is generated by coal-fired power stations, but an increasing amount comes from renewable resources such as hydro. Energex network upgrades worth $347 million will take place on the Coast. This includes a new substation at Currimundi to boost capacity and reliability before 2012. Powerlink upgrades will include a transmission line from Woolooga to Cooroy South (275kV). Natural gas will play a much greater role as a fuel source for Queensland’s electricity generation, industrial processes, business and residential customers. Consumption is expected to triple by 2030. Gas infrastructure is privately owned. The Australian Pipeline Trust (APA) is considering building a new transmission pipeline from Gatton to Gympie in order to service the expanding Sunshine Coast market.
EDUCATION Two new schools by 2012, a further six by 2019 and three more by 2026 will be built at a cost of $511 million. This initially includes two PPP (public-private partnerships) schools. The government has approved up to seven for Brisbane, the western corridor and the Sunshine Coast. Master planning is in place for an upgrade of trade training facilities at Sunshine Coast Institute of TAFE, Nambour. An $8 million campus will be established at Kawana by 2011.
INDUSTRY Government initiatives aim to ensure adequate supply of serviced industrial land and supporting infrastructure in appropriate locations. Road, rail, power and water must support these locations. A major aviation project is investigating a replacement aerodrome facility for Caloundra and Caboolture.
POLICE/SAFETY There’ll be a new 24-hour police station at Sippy Downs and the water police facility from Kawana Waters police station will be replaced. Nambour will get a new fire station.
SPORT/RECREATION/SOCIAL A new residential aged-care facility is being built at Nambour. The Maroochy River Canoe Trail – 28 kilometres of the Maroochy River from Yandina to Maroochydore, via signs, parking areas, pontoons, ramps and amenities – will be established. And a horse-riding trail through Mapleton will be developed. Work has started on two new great walks through national parks at Conondale and north of Noosa. This is worth $2.8 million.
For more details go to www.dip.qld.gov.au. The draft SEQ Regional Plan to 2031 will be released for public consultation in December.
De Vere’s pipe dream We look back at how a Sunshine Coast infrastructure project ended one man’s career. n 2008, it’s hard to imagine thousands of homes in Buderim having a septic tank in the backyard and no access to a sewerage system, but it was Buderim sewerage that led to the political demise of Maroochy Shire chairman Eddie De Vere. De Vere, who had been at the helm of the council since 1967, and had successfully guided the shire through its first major growing pains, lost the 1982 local government election because he passionately believed that Buderim should be connected to the sewerage system. It was ironic that the very issue that had led to his downfall was the same one that had previously scored him untold points. Most of Maroochy Shire’s major centres were sewered by the early 1980s, Buderim being the exception. In those days, the State Government would assist with funding on such projects, as it was a means of generating employment. Having previously completed other sewerage projects around the shire with dollar-for-dollar State subsidies, De Vere was keen to keep going while money was available. He feared that the subsidy was about to be cut from 50 to 30 per cent which, in a project amounting to millions of dollars, was the difference between it going ahead and becoming unaffordable. The problem was, this also meant that rates would go up in Buderim to cover a levy for the new sewerage scheme. A survey was sent to all ratepayers, who were invited to tick the box if they were in favour. An easy majority of 76 per cent voted in favour of going ahead with sewerage – but the exercise of contacting all the residents of Buderim took nine months. With time running out on the available subsidy, De Vere pushed ahead quickly to get it underway. The major trunk mains went in first, to maximise the subsidy opportunity, and by the time the 1982 election was in sight, half of the overall cost of the project had been spent, and a large section of Buderim, was sewered on maximum subsidy. But talk continued to spread that Buderim rates were too high and the people could not afford to pay more for sewerage. It was reported that State Government cutbacks in local authority subsidies had forced Maroochy Shire Council to freeze the Buderim sewerage scheme pending a review. Reports also said that the council had suffered a $6 million loss, although this amounted to the very same water and sewerage subsidy cuts that De Vere had predicted would occur. Public opinion, stirred up by local newspaper reports, started running high against him and when headlines on election day in March 1982 were dedicated to the Buderim sewerage scheme, De Vere knew that his more than 31 years in public life were over, even before voters went to the polls. Some 26 years later, it is difficult to believe that a politician might lose his seat for wanting to install sewerage, and even harder to imagine Buderim without a sewerage system.

Renovating on a shoestring budget If you’re thinking of selling your home, there are easy and cost-effective ways to take it from tired to terrific, adding thousands to the value of your investment. Follow our tips for renovating on the cheap.
one
Kitchen tidy
two
The most used room in the house – the kitchen – is also the one many potential buyers are most interested in, so it needs to be up to scratch. The good news is that a quick spruce-up doesn’t have to cost a motza. The easiest and most cost-effective way to update the kitchen is to replace the cabinets, panelling and hardware fixtures like drawer handles. Cabinetry can be easily replaced. Updated cupboard doors and handles will have your kitchen looking as good as new in no time, without any structural change required. If your old laminate benches are in need of replacing, there are several effective options on the market to give them a new lease on life. Consider placing a thin layer of granite over your existing benchtop – this is much cheaper than replacing the entire be bench.
three
Equally as important as a spiffy kitchen is a beautiful bathroom. You’ll be amazed how much a new toilet seat and/or a new cistern will brighten a tired old bathroom. Replacing the vanity will instantly change the feel of the bathroom, but instead of buying a traditional all-in-one unit, save money and space by installing a wall-hung basin and wall shelves. Pop on n a new coat of paint in a light, fresh colour, install some simple halogen lighting, and you’ll be impressed with the results.
Let’s go shopping
If your renovation requires considerable purchases such as new cabinets, kitchen appliances or hardware (such as handles and taps), stay committed to shopping around for the best prices and make the decisions with your head rather than your heart. Don’t forget to consider the major auction houses, factory outlets and online
four
Bathing beauty
Colour me pretty A change is as good as a holiday, so freshen up your home with a splash of colour courtesy of a coat of paint. While you may be tempted to complete a full external paint job, this may not be necessary. You’ll be surprised how much you can improve the look of your home simply by painting the trims, doors and windows in a contrasting colour. As for internal paint jobs, remember to consult the experts and do your research so you can be sure the colours you select are current and will appeal to a range of potential buyers.
auction sites, as this is where you will nab the best bargains. You could save thousands on top-of-the-range seconds appliances, while still adding significant value to your home. Buying at discounted prices may also enable you to purchase impressive brands that you may not be able to afford to buy at full price.
five
Tread the boards If you have floorboards under your carpet, you can rip out the carpets yourself, hire a floor sander, throw on a few coats of varnish and transform your faded old floor coverings. Floating timber floors can create the same look and if your carpets are in good condition, consider dyeing them. The dye will cover the stains and modernise the look of your floors.

On the record IN THE HOT SEAT WITH… Damien Michael
This Ken Guy Maroochydore salesman is one of the Coast’s most successful agents. We sat down with the ex-school teacher and dad-of-three to chat about family, footy and that record-breaking sale. ften referred to as real estate’s quiet achiever, in the five years Damien Michael has been selling real estate, he’s managed to break the record for the highest residential sale on the Sunshine Coast when he sold the Oasis property last year, and he quietly and consistently sells in excess of $28 million worth of local property each year. MPR caught up with this self-confessed family man to find out what makes him tick.
Q: You have the record for the highest residential sale on the Coast when you sold Oasis in Buderim last year. You seem to sell a lot of property on Buderim.
Q: As a former school teacher and aquaculturist, what led you to real estate?
Q: As an agent, what is your mantra?
O
Real estate is in my blood and has been for three generations. My late grandfather John Gould was a well-respected real estate agent on the Coast in the late ’70s and early ’80s. My mother Jeanette also worked as a real estate agent on the Coast for over a decade and my uncle and aunty took over my grandfather’s business and now own Vic Murphy Real Estate. I loved teaching and respect the education system, however, I’ve always had a passion for real estate and a real desire to work for myself, so it was just a matter of time before I ventured into the industry.
Q: What do you love about selling real estate?
My core business involves selling acreage and Buderim properties primarily, but I also really enjoy selling property from all over the Coast, in areas like Mooloolaba, Alexandra Headland and Maroochydore. Work hard and be honest. I see many agents who get training on what to say and how to say it. Just be real and focus on the little things just as much as the big things.
Q: If someone handed you $500,000 to buy property on the Coast, where would you invest? I would make sure that the bulk of my investment was in the land. Land appreciates and all improvements depreciate, so it is important to have the majority of the value of your real estate tied up in land value. As more people flock to the Coast, it only makes sense that the larger parcels of land will be more valuable.
I like to learn from people I meet every day. In this job I get to meet a huge crosssection of the community, all of whom have had amazing life journeys. Real estate is also an adrenalin-rush occupation that has many ups and downs. I have a great boss who reminds us that you learn more from your disappointments than you do from your successes.
Q: If you could host a dinner party and invite any three people in the world, who would they be?
Damien with his children, Carter, Jordan and M’Lea
Jerry Seinfeld, because every dinner party needs laughter. Roger Federer, because I love tennis and wouldn’t mind some tips, and Bono – I’ve read his book and love his music. My wife, Nikki would be the cook – I love her food and there’s no one better!
Q: What do you do when you’re not selling property? Spending time with the family is of most importance to me, however, if there is any spare time I’ll have a hit of tennis, go to the gym, socialise with friends or watch the footy (AFL) or cricket.
The record $8 million sale of Oasis installed a confidence in the prestige marketplace in Buderim

Since then, the couple has been back almost every year for a minimum of two weeks each visit. “I didn’t think I was going to like Bali, to be honest, but I absolutely loved it and as soon as we get back from one trip I’m already planning the next one,” Jayne says. “From a visitor’s point of view, everything is first class – the accommodation, the shopping, the restaurants, the service. It’s heaven, especially for people like us who work in customer service, as the Balinese are so desperate to look after you. The service is amazing.” David goes on to explain that there are in fact two very daybed, tropical ponds, an impressive kitchen, open-plan living different Bali experiences. “If you simply stay in Kuta and don’t and a dense garden overflowing with sub-tropical foliage. explore some of the other areas, you don’t get to see the real “The Balinese way of life suits our lifestyle and climate,” beauty of Bali and experience the quality accommodation and Jayne says. “It’s so much cooler under the thatched roofs and the world-class restaurants it has on offer,” he says. “Honestly, the sub-tropical foliage grows well. It suits our busy life dining experiences in Bali are some ome of the best in the world.” sub as when we are home we just want to relax.

The interior features many personalised Balinese touches. The couch covers, throw cushions and bedspreads have all been custom made for the Noosaville home, which also houses a number of handmade Balinese dinner sets, glassware and placemats. And then there’s Jayne’s Balinese shoe collection. She and David love shopping and make the most of their time in Bali, bringing home clothing, fabrics, shoes and homewares. But the most impressive purchases are the couple’s Balinese artworks, which adorns many of the home’s walls. “We have absolutely fallen in love with Balinese art and have spent the past few years researching our favourite artists and collecting key pieces,” David said. “Krijono, Marsa and Kasib would have to be our favourites.” While this once-dilapidated old brick has been transformed into a tropical paradise devoted to all things Bali, there is one exception to the theme – the wall of honour dedicated to David’s stellar career in the British Navy. Located next to the staircase leading to the second floor of the home, the wall features a number of photos, awards and memories, testament to David’s successful career as a pilot and flight commander. Of highest honour was David’s dispatch from the Queen for bravery, received following the Battle of the Falklands for his successful command of a minesweeper. David even attended naval college with Prince Charles, often accompanying the prince on surfing trips in Wales, but that’s a story worthy of its own feature. You have to wonder how Jayne and David found the time to renovate. David, a real estate agent who founded Re/Max Noosa, lives life at a hectic pace, balancing his demanding work with his love of the ocean and surfing. Jayne, director of her own public relations agency in Brisbane, splits her time between their home and her thriving business. No wonder they love coming home to this peaceful Balinese oasis. What’s next for the Noosaville couple? Are they happy to just sit back and enjoy their home? “We’re getting itchy feet actually,” Jayne says. “It’s time for our next project, so we’re looking to sell and find the next home in need of some Bali love.”

Profit from your loss

Don’t forget your tax entitlements to get the most out of your investments. by Matthew Stanley t is estimated that only one in five residential investors make use of the tax depreciation entitlements that are available to all property investors. This doesn’t make sense, as it is worth obtaining every last cent of depreciation allowance you’re legally entitled to. When you think of tax deductions for a residential property investment, you probably think of things like mortgage interest, maintenance and upkeep, property management fees and council rates. But there’s one other big deduction that can often be overlooked – depreciation. All investment properties are eligible for a building write-off allowance off 2.5 per cent of the original build cost, along with plant and equipment. Investors can gain between 10 to 20 per cent of the building’s value as depreciable plant. Examples of plant and equipment include carpets, ovens, a cooktop, dishwasher, clothes dryer, window blinds, airconditioner, heater and hot water system. By creating a deprecation schedule, you can reduce your assessable income and significantly enhance your after-tax return. This means less money for the tax man and more money for you to pay for the important things in life, like your children’s school tuition.

Alexandra Headland
Market Tracker
ocation: Alexandra Headland or â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Alexâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, as itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s affectionately known by locals, is nestled between the bustling oceanfront suburbs of Mooloolaba and Maroochydore and therefore finds itself at the heart of the busy Sunshine Coast strip. Alex is approximately two square kilometres in size and is referred to as the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;golden triangleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, due to its unusual shape and positioning, east out to the rocky headland. This area has become an enviable property hot
spot, experiencing massive growth rates over the past few years.

In 2006, the population of Alex was 3341, according to Census data.

Major shopping facilities can be found at nearby Sunshine Plaza in Maroochydore, while the Mooloolaba Esplanade, a short walk to the south, is home to numerous restaurants and shops. While the area boasts a number of quality accommodation facilities, Alex is also a popular location for locals, who are drawn to the suburb by the relaxed pace of its beachfront life.

THE TOP OF THE TOWNHOUSE AND UNIT TREE The Real Estate Institute of Queensland released more figures this week, to reveal that the unit and townhouse market has continued to hold its ground in the last quarter.

Keeping abreast of charity Day and Grimes Real Estate was one of the major sponsors
of the Nambour open golf tournament on the weekend of September 13 and 14. The event was a great success, and the sponsored teams wore pink Day and Grimes T-shirts in aid of breast cancer awareness. The day raised $2500, which went to the Nambour breast screening clinic.

2 BID 2 BE WELL RECEIVED A new technological innovation is set to revolutionise the way we buy and sell real estate in the future. The much-anticipated 2bid2.com is a new online auction process. The system removes the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;onsiteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; aspect of auctions and puts them online, so prospective bidders can keep track of bids placed online and sellers can better monitor the activity on their properties. Just like a traditional auction, there is still a time and day for the auction and a reserve price set. Once the reserve price is reached with an online bid, all previous bidders are notified by SMS and email giving them 24 hours to counter-offer. The property and the auction is still managed by the real estate agent, who can negotiate and bid on behalf of the buyer. The process was developed by real estate industry professionals and took almost 18 months to create. Keep an eye out for this new auction process or ask your local agent for more information. The web address is www.2bid2.com.
A FRESH WAY TO BUY AND SELL REAL ESTATE
a very ill vendor sell his property. A number of local professionals have come together to offer their services for free to help the vendor in his time of need. A special mention goes to Steve Turner, Geoff Ohmsen and Lisa Grobler of Henzells Platinum; Henzells Caloundra; Jason Andrew Auctioneers; Propvid; Tim Graham Photography; ABC Photosigns and a number of other local businesses whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve contributed.

Kings Beach prestige
Buderim living with sea views
Here is a rare opportunity to own the subpenthouse (level 10) in the spectacular Observatory complex. The Observatory is uniquely positioned on a ridge-top at beautiful Kings Beach with a unique innovative design that allows a cross-flow of gentle sea breezes while commanding possibly the most expansive views on the coast. The standard of finishes are those expected in an apartment of this calibre, including 2.6-metre ceilings, gourmet kitchen with full Miele fitout, glass spashbacks and polished quartz benchtops. With ducted air-conditioning, secure double car accommodation and two separate expansive living areas, the apartment is perfectly located approximately three minutesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; walk from the Kings Beach parkland, cafes and the main patrolled surfing beach.
This property offers magnificent views to the sea and Mount Coolum, and captures the north-easterly breeze that comes off the sea to cool you on a hot summerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s day. Located in a quiet cul-de-sac on Buderimâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s north-eastern escarpment, this is a lifestyle thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worth a million dollars, but one you can afford. Built on poles over two levels, on the upper level are four double bedrooms, one could be an office, as itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s accessible from the outside for those who have business clients. There ares also two bathrooms and two living areas, and the master bedroom, which has views to the sea and a door to the balcony plus an ensuite and walk-in robe. On the lower level are two more bedrooms and a bathroom.

Thank you to the residents of Caloundra for making us feel welcome! Since opening on the 1st of July 2008 we have been overwhelmed by the support that we have received from the people of the Sunshine Coast. It truly is the most amazingly friendly place. No matter where you go in town you are met with a helping hand, a smiling face. It is such a relaxed place to live and really is one of the most picturesque places we have ever been. Although it was a huge move from New South Wales for my brother Greg and his wife Kylie and their children Brad and Rebecca, as it was for my wife Nicole and our children Ashleigh, Jessica and Courtney we havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t looked back since being here! Andrew Hasker and his wife Julia who have moved to Golden Beach from Twin Waters to join our team recently have really taken to the friendly atmosphere of Caloundra. It is a fabulous place to holiday and an even better place to live! On behalf of us all I would like to publicly thank our vendors who have chosen to entrust their valuable property to our team. We canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t thank you enough for the opportunities you have given us. We are all very proud to be able to deliver the results we have been delivering to our vendors. In fact we have been so busy selling homes that we are currently facing a shortage of property to service the inquiries that have originated from your sales, especially in the Pelican Waters/Golden Beach, Dicky Beach/Moffat Beach, Little Mountain/Aroona, Currimindi and Central Caloundra areas. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re thinking of selling please call us today on 07 5499 7588 for a free, no obligation appraisal. We would be ecstatic to have the opportunity of serving you! â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Scott Hull Licensee in Charge LJ Hooker Caloundra.

Huge Buderim home
Mooloolaba sub-penthouse
Located in the Mountain Creek school zone, this home has plenty of room with five bedrooms accommodating the largest of families. Everyone can relax in their own space with the open-plan living area design also encompassing a separate media room, a rumpus room and a study for all the kids’ homework. When you all come together it will be around the well-appointed kitchen, or lazing by the huge inground pool while throwing a barbecue in the alfresco outdoor area. The ducted air-conditioning will ensure year-round climate control and the low-maintenance design of this home ensures that you have more time to spend on what really counts – family. Up to five cars can be accommodated here or earn an income from home – the double garage is currently operating as a hairdressing salon.
Family commitments have forced the sale of this perfectly positioned sub-penthouse apartment in ‘Seamark’ , right in the heart of Mooloolaba. The owner-occupier purchased the off-the-plan eleventh-floor apartment for its ideal location at the one end of the building that maximises retention of ocean views as well as river, canal and spectacular hinterland views. The media room could be easily converted to a third bedroom. With sensible pricing and body corporate fees, a penthouse upgrade, balconies front and rear and two adjacent car spaces, inspection is a must.

The apartment has been freshly carpeted and painted throughout to allow you to move in today and enjoy, or let your imagination run wild and transform it. It features glorious views from every window, good-sized bedrooms with ensuite plus separate bathroom. There’s a pool in the complex and it’s an easy stroll to beautiful beaches, shops, clubs, restaurants and cafes. It’s a great lifestyle offering security and privacy with lock-up-and-leave living. Alternatively, this would be a great holiday rental with excellent onsite management.

This land offers a fantastic outlook with sweeping views across farmlands to Buderim in the distance. At the rear of the land is a bush reserve offering a natural outlook.

Kings Beach rare find
Solid Kuluin duplex
Situated in a fantastic location on the headland at Kings Beach, this apartment has views over the shipping lanes from Moreton Island all the way to the Glasshouse Mountains and Bribie Island. This two-bedroom home is enhanced by spacious living areas, and a modern kitchen, all with ocean views. Walk to Kings and Shelly beaches, restaurants, hotel and parks. This nine-unit complex is tightly held and being so sought-after, it is rarely offered for sale.
This great brick duplex is located within walking distance of schools, shops and transport. Very comfortable living with three big bedrooms with built-ins, separate laundry, large air-conditioned living areas, functional kitchen with dishwasher and undercover pergola. There is even side access for that boat or trailer, and the kids will love it with a walkway through to the neighbourhood park with playground, skate bowl and bike tracks. A duplex like this with extremely low body corps is going to sell fast.

Rent-hot in Nambour In a tough economic climate, many renters sit tight and wait for better financial times. As a result, it’s a renters’ market in the hinterland town of Nambour and the price couldn’t be better, from small units to sprawling houses. by Dorothy Drane ncertain economic times are believed to be behind the unseasonal trend that has produced a tenant’s market in Nambour, where there is an abundance of properties of all types and prices available for the willing renter. Anyone looking for a place to live, whether it’s a small apartment for singles or an executive family home, will find that they now have a range of homes to choose from in the hinterland town. Day and Grimes senior property manager Beverly Chubb says there are now more properties available than there has been for a long time. “We had an unusually busy June and July, but when it got to the end of August, things just slowed down, and it is unusual to see people up and moving in winter,” she says.
U
“It is unseasonal and I can’t explain that. It’s quiet at the moment.” Beverly says she has received similar feedback from private landlords. Raine and Horne Nambour property manager Nikki Redfern has also found this winter has defied trends. “Nambour tends to be cyclical and it is difficult to find a rental property during school holidays or at Christmas and New Year when the hospital and the council are doing their recruiting,” she says. “Winter is often slower than summer but this year it was busier than usual.” Nikki says the number of rental properties currently available in Nambour alone is “quite extraordinary”. There is a wide variety of properties available, from one-bedroom units at $165 a week to
$550 a week for an executive Queenslander. Market demand is also affecting rental prices, with some bargains available on quality properties. “You can get an older three-bedroom house in Nambour for $285 a week or a you-beaut four-bedroom with lock-up garage for $380,” Beverly says. “It’s hard to put a price on a property and what the market will pay, as it is all a bit mixed up at the moment.” Beverly says that it seems people are happy to sit tight rather than moving and risk having to pay a higher rent. “It seems the affordability is not there. People are having a bit more trouble getting the money to do things and they are just swinging along with things,” she says. “It’s definitely a renter’s market at the moment.” Nikki says the current market trend could
also be the result of an influx of new properties coming on to the market, with newly completed townhouse developments and estates pushing up stocks. “There are more properties on the market, but wages haven’t gone up in the area,” she says. “But it seems that people are not moving for fear of having to pay a higher rent.” She says most enquiries she receives are for the lower end of market, rather than the new properties. “We are finding that there are plenty of properties to choose from at the moment, whether it’s houses, units or townhouses,” she says. “People should be looking to Nambour to rent at the moment, because it is their market. Economic news could be making people afraid to move and they shouldn’t be.”

hinterland
A little look at the bigger picture By Craig Heppell, sales director Victor Realty ome of the slightly insecure souls among us are not too averse to the idea of enlisting the services of a fortune teller, tarot card reader or crystal ball-gazer to inform us of the joys or pitfalls that may lay ahead. Yes, to be forewarned is to be forearmed. During the past six to nine months of national and global uncertainty, the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Eddiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, as I affectionately call the over-educated, highly paid fortune tellers, come out from under their rocks and on to our TV screens. They forewarn us to the point of scaring the living tripe out of the common man or woman by throwing around such frightening terms as â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;recessionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;depressionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;stagflationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;meltdownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; or, one of my personal favourites, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;crisisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. They are big scary words that would have you selling the home, the 4WD, wife, kids, plasma and anything else that requires a daily, weekly or monthly input of the folding stuff, and then putting on the loin cloth and heading into the jungle to live on berries and pick nits off your new-found neighbour. The government and banks canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t charge you for nit or berry picking, can they? Anyway, what does all this talk mean for the people of the Sunshine Coast hinterland? Not much really. Our local, state and national economies are strong and the financial industry is well-regulated. House prices have stabilised and at worst, come off a little in some areas, so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great time to buy. There are jobs if you want to contribute and earn, and, come to think of it, the sun is still rising in the east over our sandy clean beaches and setting in the west behind our stunning ranges. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need a degree or get paid a huge salary to enable me to tell you that. Remember, life is a whole lot better when you always see the glass as half full.

Coast commercial in balance CBRE quarterly figures reveal the Coast commercial sector is experiencing a state of supply-demand equilibrium. he 0.25 per cent interest rate cut on September 2 should support demand for quality investment property, a leading Sunshine Coast property commentator says. Discussing the CB Richard Ellis second quarter 2008 MarketView, managing director Rem Rafter says that while the global downturn is expected to have some adverse impacts, the local market enjoys a good balance between supply and demand. Rem says the rate cut is welcome news for the investment market and new developments. “The Sunshine Coast is not immune to the ongoing impact of the global credit squeeze and associated market events,” he says. “But we believe the fundamentals of the Sunshine Coast market remain unchanged. We have strong population and white-collar employment growth and, compared with other property markets, we have a good balance between supply and demand. “While there has been little activity this year involving vacant development sites, we have seen good demand for quality investment property at our group auctions this year.” CBRE’s MarketView report cautions that continued high interest rates and difficulties in obtaining finance could affect the timing of some projects – notably the pipeline of proposed office, retail and industrial projects. Approximately 14,100 square metres of office space is set to be added to the market during 2008, with another 50,000 square metres proposed for the next four years. According to the report, investor interest in the office market was subdued in the June quarter. Major investment sales totalled $45 million for the 12 months to June 2008, but only $17 million was accounted for in the first six months of 2008. Pre-commitments to new supply remain at 60 per cent and most of the vacancies are expected to be absorbed within 12 months, the report says. The supply-led Sunshine Coast office market had a vacancy rate of 6.8 per cent as of January 2008. CBRE expects the gap between prime and secondary rents to
T
widen as an increasing number of businesses choose to re-locate to prime properties. While there is another 19,100 square metres of retail space in the pipeline for 2008, rental growth rates have moderated and the tight credit market has had a notable impact on investment sales. Sales volumes were down significantly, with just $109 million in sales for the 12 months to June. While $55 million of this was transacted in the first six months of 2008, the result was skewed by the $41.75 million sale of Noosa Fair. Investment activity was also subdued in the industrial sector, with just $7 million in major sales transacted in the first six months of 2008, compared with $48 million for the full 12 months to June 2008. Yields have softened to range from 7.5 per cent to 8.5 per cent for prime warehouse or strata space, while the yield for secondary stock ranged from 8.5 per cent to nine per cent. CBRE says the pressure of interest rates and the rising cost of debt could affect the feasibility of new developments. About 150 hectares of land is set for release in 2008-2009, creating new opportunities for developers, although the large amount of land entering the market combined with current economic uncertainty may cause land values to stabilise in the short-term. At June 2008, fully serviced lots were selling for between $400 and $500 per square metre in Kawana, $400 to $450 in Caloundra and between $350 and $410 at Kunda Park. In Coolum, rates between $270 and $290 per square metre were typical, with large lots ranging from $220 to $240. “We were encouraged by the Reserve Bank’s move to lower interest rates and many commentators expect this will be the first of a series of cuts in 2008-2009,” CBRE’s Rem Rafter says. “We need the interest rate and yield gap to tighten and then we will see buyers become very active. “Prime investment stock should continue to sell, although the large quantity of strata stock coming online could create a buyer’s market for units during the rest of 2008.”

Redefining business in Maroochydore The prospect of owning a business in Maroochydore just got a little more exciting, with the recent unveiling of Reed Property Group’s newest development, Emporio. Its commerce and marketplace offerings are now being snapped up. mporio, the first stage of Maroochydore’s Sunshine Cove precinct on the corner of Maroochy Boulevard and Plaza Parade, will introduce a sophisticated concept that meshes quality apartment living with commerce facilities, dining and a fresh food marketplace – a first for the Sunshine Coast. More than 200 apartments will feature in the complex. Following the launch, Savills, exclusive marketing agents for the commerce and marketplace offerings, have fielded a large number of enquiries from local and national businesses, all eager to explore opportunities for lease, purchase or strata title. Emporio will be the new home for Maroochydore’s savvy businesses. The 12,200-square metre, A-grade commercial space set in the heart of the Emporio community will offer flexibility across four stand-alone buildings, between three and six storeys. Due for completion in 2010, Emporio Commerce will boast modern architecture and design and feature access not only to fibre-optic communications, but also the considerable base of residents and visitors to the mixed-use community. The flagship of the commercial offering, 8 Emporio Place, boasts lake frontage and has been designed to achieve a five-star ‘Green Star’ rating, a first for the Sunshine Coast. This will be an incredible achievement for Reed Property Group. The entire Emporio community will feature nine buildings, numbered one to nine. Some of these buildings will be dedicated to residential living and some to commercial space. The commerce precinct consists of the following: 1 Emporio Place, the gateway to the development; 2 Emporio Place will house a six-storey building; and 8 Emporio Place has been designed to achieve a five star ‘Green Star’ rating. Nine Emporio Place will also house high-profile commercial space and a showroom. Full-floor tenancies (capable of subdivision) and flexible floor plates are available. Savills is able to offer naming and signage rights for individual buildings. With a variety of leasing and strata title options available, businesses can secure premises with water views and/or potential exposure to approximately 37,500 cars per day. The opportunity to acquire a ground-floor tenancy for a quality fitness centre is also still available. Emporio Marketplace will be located at 3 Emporio Place. It will feature a fresh food marketplace. The lakefront will house a number of waterfront cafes, restaurants, bars and bistros. The Sunshine Cove vision is quickly turning into a reality, with Garry Crick Automotive Group’s Mercedes-Benz dealership under construction and a Harvey Norman Superstore secured for the precinct. Nearby, Sunshine Plaza and the Big Top Shopping Centre are set to undergo major expansions, and the Horton Park golf course site is earmarked for redevelopment. For information about Emporio, phone Savills on 5443 5088.

new home & land
Home among the greens Lend Lease has released stage two of its popular Vantage community at the Hyatt Regency Coolum. But with only 27 home sites up for grabs, buyers will have to get in fast. ollowing on from the success of Vantage stage one, Lend Lease has released further land within the Hyatt Regency Coolum premium golf frontage community to the market this week. This second stage of Vantage is an extension of the residential community, which was released to the market back in 2005. The home sites are nestled in the western end of the resort and they border the new golf holes around Hyatt’s Vine Forest. With 27 home sites available, only a select few will be able to secure a lot and take advantage of resort facilities, such as the rejuvenated championship golf course, restaurants, the spa and tennis courts. Lend Lease Sunshine Coast project director Warren Thomson says the initial interest shown by current clients and builders has been excellent. “We’ve already had an overwhelming response to Vantage. However, this isn’t surprising considering the incredible success of the first stage,” he says. “In fact, the first stage of Vantage broke all records and all 17 lots were completely sold prior to its public release.” Vantage is an exclusive community with
F
architectural and landscape guidelines that ensure a high-quality streetscape and preserve the integrity of the existing resort environment. “All of the residents at Hyatt can enjoy privileged access to tennis, the spa, numerous restaurants and the golf course, which is home to the Australian PGA Championship,” Warren says. “Residents can be as active as they like in using the resort facilities, but still retreat to the peace and tranquillity of their home at Hyatt Coolum.” Residents who call the exclusive residential community home benefit for a number of reasons. “Vantage has always been a popular choice for people who want to design and build their own homes to suit their specific needs,” Warren says. “Adding to this, the second stage of Vantage is set on a diverse site, which offers a range of flat to sloping lots. The diversity of the site provides numerous opportunities of dwelling types for people building in Vantage stage two. “The direct paths links to all facilities and the close proximity to the resort provide the enviable resort residential lifestyle.” The blocks of land range from 425 square
metres to 904 square metres. Lend Lease will be releasing the built-form within stage two later in the year. To secure a block of land or register your
interest in upcoming architectural dwellings within Vantage stage two, phone Lend Lease on 1800 688 530 or visit the sales centre on David Low Way.
Hot Springs The popularity of FKP Property Group’s residential community Peregian Springs continues to rise. KP Property Group’s residential community Peregian Springs has emerged as the Sunshine Coast’s property hotspot, topping all neighbouring suburbs to record a recent 13.4 per cent rise in house prices. The Real Estate Institute of Queensland June quarter median house price figures show Peregian Springs has defied a downward trend across the rest of the Sunshine Coast, to post a double-figure increase for the June quarter. According to REIQ, the median house price at Peregian Springs for the period was $635,000, up from $560,000 in the March quarter. FKP’s executive general manager for land, Bryan Jackson, says Peregian Springs, which already has more than 2000 residents, continues to evolve in its eighth year of development. “When we first conceived Peregian Springs, our aim was to create a community that would offer residents the lifestyle they want, right at their doorstep,” Bryan says. “After starting out with residential precincts, the community has grown to include St Andrew’s Anglican College,
F
a private 18-hole golf course, and even business suites. “The addition of the Coles supermarket and a further 15 retail tenancies is a massive step in the development of Peregian Springs.” Currently, 29 traditional lots are available in the community, ranging in size from 525 square metres to 783 square metres, and priced from $295,000 to $325,000. Sixteen blocks sized from 455 to 845 square metres with frontage onto the private golf course are also available, priced from $450,000 to $715,000. Bryan says the newest residential addition, Ridges Peregian Springs, will be community-titled. Mixing shopping, dining and recreation with beautifully maintained environs, the community-title structure will allow FKP to tailor the desired lifestyle for each different homeowner. Sixty-five lots have been released in Ridges Peregian Springs’ initial stages, priced from $275,000 to $435,000. FKP has created homes for thousands of Australians as part of a $5 billion property development pipeline. Phone 5471 5600 for more information.
