ILLAWARRA LIFE

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

Raine & Horne Dapto grows from strength to strength

Economic Development

Raine & Horne Dapto took out the award for Top Office Business Growth – Number of Sales at the recent Raine & Horne NSW-ACT Annual Awards, held at Sydney’s Westin Hotel.

Wollongong is one of Australia’s major cities without the associated big city costs, combined with superb connectivity.

Leading Illawarra real estate firm, Raine & Horne Dapto, has capped a stellar 2015 by being named Raine & Horne’s fastest-growing office in NSW.

The award recognises the 96% growth in the volume of sales completed by Raine & Horne Dapto during 2015, when compared to the previous 12 months.

Speaking following the awards ceremony, Raine & Horne Dapto Principal Jason Dorling highlighted the strength of his sales team.

“Without the exceptional people who make up our team, we wouldn’t have a successful business, and it goes without saying that our staff are our biggest asset,” said Mr Dorling.

The Wollongong Economy Renowned for its world-class steel making and coal mining industries, Australia’s City of Innovation is today also an important knowledge services centre, international trade hub and a leading university city. It is globally connected, has superb liveability and supportive business environment.

Wollongong is one of Australia’s major cities and is located just 85 kilometres south of Sydney. This proximity to the nation’s largest and most dynamic economy means Wollongong has superb connectivity. We’re also just an hour’s drive from Sydney International Airport.

As Wollongong transitions into a knowledge services hub, the key industry sectors driving growth in the area include: • Information and Communication Technology • Funds Administration • Business and shared services

“The whole team couldn’t be more proud of the fact that we’ve received this recognition, and we’ll certainly wear it as a badge of honour.”

Mr Dorling also noted that the Illawarra region’s growth was another factor behind the award.

“The almost unlimited potential of the Illawarra as a place to live and work is being recognised by more and more people, and in terms of real estate traffic we’ve certainly seen growth in the number of buyers in the region over the last 12 months,” he added.

On a personal level, the awards also saw Mr Dorling celebrate his induction into Raine & Horne’s Chairman’s Club, which recognises Raine & Horne’s top performers.

“Becoming part of the Chairman’s Club is a great opportunity to rub shoulders with some of Raine & Horne’s best and brightest, and hopefully this will push me on to even bigger and better things in 2016,” said Mr Dorling.

• Education and Research • Creative Industries • Logistics

“Again, I couldn’t have achieved this recognition without the support of our fantastic team.”

• Advanced manufacturing • Mining Services Technologies • Health and Aged Care and Community Services • Tourism.

The revitalisation of the City Centre is expected to continue to drive this growth further. In the last 12 months more than $700 million worth of major developments are underway or completed in the City Centre.

These include: • Council’s $19.4M refurbishment of the Crown Street Mall.

• GPT’s $200M West Keira shopping development.

• Expansion of Wollongong Public Hospital - $134M • Establishment of new Wollongong Private Hospital - $120M • Purpose built Australian Taxation Office - $16M. Council’s role in Economic Development Council supports economic development by fostering greater investment and jobs growth in the LGA, sending a strong message that Wollongong is open for business.

Wollongong’s expansion will need to be facilitated through appropriate planning arrangements and infrastructure delivery, in line with the NSW Illawarra Regional Growth Plan.

Council has a direct impact on many aspects of business operations including planning, infrastructure and business support. Consequently, we can contribute to economic development by ensuring there are efficient planning processes and that the city’s public amenity is well maintained. These operational roles will encourage investment from the private sector.

Local agent rewarded for excellence in customer service Ali Yagmur from Domain First National in Unanderra has taken out a number of top accolades in this year’s RateMyAgent awards for customer excellence, including being named the number four agent in New South Wales as well as coming in at number nine across Australia.

The award demonstrates Ali’s commitment to providing a superior customer experience and is instrumental in ensuring he delivers the best results.

The RateMyAgent 2015 awards are purely based on over 100,000 customer reviews relating to sales in 2015, recognising agents and businesses on customer satisfaction.

Ali Yagmur commented: “Customer reviews have become so important in all industries. People trust what their peers have to say more than they ever have in the past.”

“For me to have been reviewed so positively as a leading agent is a tremendous accolade to my team at Domain First National and the service we provide to all of our vendors and buyers alike. It also serves as proof that we understand that each customer that walks through our doors needs to be engaged and informed.”

RateMyAgent CEO Mark Armstrong commented: “The only way agents can qualify for these awards is to sell property, and then request a review for each property sold. Because each review is linked with a property transaction the results carry substantial credibility with the people who read them.”

“Good agents know the importance of genuine customer reviews and the power reviews have in winning new listings.”

PROPERTY FOCUS MARKET SNAPSHOT

MARKET view Last week saw a rise in the median price (rolling 30day) for a three bedroom house, up from $545,000 to $562,500. However, the (rolling 30day) median price for a two bedroom unit has fallen slightly from $433,000 the previous week to $427,250.

$464,500

MEDIAN UNIT RENT

While the increase in the median price for houses is good news, in the absence of any significant changes in macro-market conditions, slight variations week to week should be expected. Similarly, other key indicators have shown some movement.

The median days on market have dropped again to 39 days but the auction clearance rate has also dropped after two consecutive weeks of 85% and 90%.

Of interest is the number of three bedroom houses advertised on realestateworld.

There has been steady increases post-Christmas and in March the count continued to grow to 388. Two bedroom units have held steady in March at 201 advertised properties.

realestateworld advertised properties during March

Overall, this week’s numbers confirm the Illawarra property market is stable and showing steady growth in supply and demand.
