Kurt Wallace, manager and licensee at Crawford Realty Newman catches up with Evelyn Thomas on her experiences as a successful property investor and her views on investing in the Pilbara’s dynamic market.

before making offers. Start off small and begin reading property magazines, books and attending seminars to understand the fundamentals. Our portfolio is worth $2.05million. Our WA holding has grown in value and rental return rapidly. I have set-up a strategy to add to the portfolio every quarter which allows for research, finance and credit scoring. My goal is to build a property portfolio over $30m, continue to passively invest and move into buy, renovate, sell and develop.
Ms Thomas takes up the story Having worked for several years in the finance sector I was familiar with the intricacies of funding a property purchase, and my experience proved invaluable in 2007 when I decided to begin investing in property. Initially I didn’t have a business plan as I wanted to start off small and see where it would take me. I began investing actively in the last twelve months when I decided to grow my portfolio. The biggest setback I faced starting out was lack of knowledge about property. I knew about finance but not property and missed some great opportunities. I have now surrounded myself with like-minded people and experts to get the right advice

Investing in WA The key to successful investment is to work out where the next boom will be and act fast – so buy in an area which has low vacancy, high yields, good growth and a sustainable future. South Hedland can produce ROI’s of over 13 per cent, zero vacancy, some amazing growth even with a slowing economy, with years of growth ahead. I suggest getting in quickly before prices are out of reach. My investment in South Hedland has allowed me to buy my first new BMW and
z Kurt Wallace, manager and licensee at Crawford Realty Newman my next property in Newman. Although the $425,000 property is small, it is positively geared with rent returning 11per cent. Crawford Realty has been managing my property since just before Christmas 2011 and has provided phenomenal service. They were excellent throughout the sale and have managed our property with great attention to detail. I am in the process of investing again in Newman and will be dealing with Crawford Realty.

Welcome mat for new housing minister The Housing Industry Association has welcomed the appointment of the Hon Brendan O’Connor to the position of Minister for Housing and Homelessness, in the Federal Government’s ministerial reshuffle. The Australian housing industry is made up of around 85 per cent small business and by combining these two portfolios, Minister O’Connor has the unique opportunity to promote much needed policy initiatives and programs across small business and residential building., said Mr Graham Wolfe, of the HIA. “It is also important that the Housing portfolio has remained in cabinet and it is likewise pleasing to see that Small Business has now been elevated to this level,” he said. “The housing industry puts around 400,000 Australians into new homes every year and creates thousands of new jobs.” “Housing is a staple of life that drives both economic and social outcomes, yet Australia is facing both a housing shortage and affordability challenge which needs urgent attention.” “We look forward to meeting with Mr O’Connor to discuss the many pressing policy areas that need to be addressed to revitalise the residential housing industry. Mr O’Connor also takes on the role of Minister for Small Business. Source - HIA

The possibilities are endless for this diamond in the rough A property with this potential won’t last long. This quality built brick and iron home was built to last the ages and will withstand anything Mother Nature can throw its way. Sitting on a large 735sqm block, it provides plenty of room for that growing family or workforce accommodation. The home is fully furnished and boasts an open plan kitchen, living and dining area which sprawls out through large sliding doors to reveal your own private oasis – an alfresco perfect for entertaining or those lazy Sunday afternoon barbecues with the family. The house has expansive open plan living and there are low maintenance floors throughout the kitchen, living and dining rooms. Ceiling fans are found throughout

including the bedrooms. A storage shed and carport with room for another car and the boat, with side access to the backyard complete the picture. This property is not only suited to a growing family, but also represents an absolutely fantastic investment opportunity for the investor willing to give it a bit of time and TLC. The property is currently achieving a 10.67 per cent ROI with potential for greater returns with the current lease running out at the end of January 2012. Now is the opportune time to buy and allow your capital to build from this positively geared investment before putting in minimal work to achieve maximum returns. With Karratha set to undergo enormous infrastructure development such as the new town centre redevelopment and Anketell port just to name a few, there is no sign of the demand for housing slowing down and it will only increase in coming years.

Ultimate Property Hot-Spot Set to Triple In Price
Is This the Next Karratha?
Back in 2006, who would have thought property prices in Karratha were about to skyrocket by 251%? But they did. And investors made hundreds of thousands of dollars in record time.
“Karratha Homes Cost $1 Million”
That was the headline in the West Australian on the 23 January 2011. Just six years earlier you could have bought a house for $330,000 and made a profit of $600,000. Not only were the capital gains impressive, rents went through the roof to a staggering $2,500 a week. This enabled investors to easily fund their investment and immediately leverage it to buy more properties.
A New Opportunity
In real estate, timing is everything. And while Karratha has had its boom, you can take advantage of a new town which is set to triple in price over the coming years. It’s already started to happen. For instance, here’s a list of 4 different properties and their growth in recent years. (see table)
Hard to believe?
Where is it?
Not if you look at the facts. With $65bn in infrastructure projects confirmed, population in this town is about to explode by up to 92.8% (as many as 21,000 workers). With 47.4% households earning income of more than $1,200 a week (compared to the national average of 39.1%) quality housing will be desperately short in supply.
To find out before it becomes common knowledge, you need to get your hands on this report where you will learn...
But that’s just the beginning. With a young population (average age 35 compared to over 40 years nationally), 2 other massive, mature, local industries, and a geographic advantage almost unheard of, this town is set for spectacular immediate and longterm growth.
• How this town is about to undergo record growth with $65bn in infrastructure projects confirmed • An in-depth analysis of 3 lucrative investment opportunities currently available • Exactly why miners and investors are already buying in this area • And how you can take advantage of this limited window of opportunity for as little as $485,000
z Leading edge design and fitout
sized bedroom with a built-in wardrobe and ensuite bathroom, all with quality fixtures and fittings. There is an undercover carport and dedicated visitors’ parking. Currently under construction by a trusted national development company, these leading-edge apartments are the ideal accommodation option for corporate employees and managers living and working in Port. These oceanside apartments will secure $1600 per week upon completion, returning a strong 11.9 per cent ROI.

How To Spot A True Super-Infrastructure Boom Town — Follow These 4 Criteria
Modest Population: Infrastructure towns must be modest in size with a population around 60,000 or less. Any larger and new projects are unlikely to have enough impact on housing demands and rental yields. This rapidly growing location currently has a population of 60,000. More Than $1bn In Committed Projects: Any less and the impact on a town bigger than a few thousand people will be of little consequence. This ‘boom town’ has current planned and committed projects valued at a staggering $65bn. Peak Workforce Increase of at Least 5%: An increase in workforce population of 5%-10% means a massive jump in house and rental prices as demand outstrips supply. Six of this towns committed projects each require a workforce equal to 5% of the current workforce. If these projects are implemented simultaneously an extra 21,000 workers will need housing. Approved Status: The projects can’t just be pipe-dreams — they must be in the latter stages of approval. This location has 5 projects already at the critical ‘confirmed / commenced’ phase, with numerous other projects in the final stages of approval.
Cashed-up miners and investors are already jumping on this ‘secret’ hot spot. Get your Free Copy of this Report and discover how you may be able to turn your deposit on a $485,000 investment into over A MILLION DOLLARS in just a few short years — with significant rental contributions likely to exceed $1,000/wk.
