Development Ready: The Year in Review

Development Ready: The Year in Review Below we highlight some of our accomplishments from the last 12 months, as well as our predictions and outlook for 2020.
NATIONAL EXPANSION The team pushed full steam ahead with our expansion strategy and driving new business and presence within the South Australian and Western Australian markets. This has proved to be a rewarding and worthwhile venture, with a warm response received from agency groups and respective agents within both states. Within a relatively short space of time, key agencies have implemented our service as an essential component to their property marketing campaigns and we’re proud to be an influential driver of growth for them. LAUNCH OF THE PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT REVIEW In April, we launched the inaugural issue of The Property Development Review ‘TPDR’ in conjunction with The Urban Developer. Fast forward to December and we’ve since produced and distributed nine unique issues garnering tens of thousands of reads by peers and relevant industry professionals. This digital magazine has bolstered the strength and integrity of the property development sector by delivering important and pertinent news stories, insider analysises and trends, as well as interviews with leading industry experts, to a cognisant audience of developers and investors. Through TPDR we’ve also been able to offer our clients an alternative and cost-effective solution to print media advertising and allow them to showcase their sites, and any upcoming auction and EOI dates, to a comprehensive and engaged national audience. IMPROVED WEBSITE DESIGN & FUNCTIONALITY Right off the mark in 2019 we implemented a complete website redesign, which not only streamlined user experience but allowed us to cement our distinct branding and professional standing. A major overhaul of the website’s back-end has afforded clients more features than ever before, with better campaign management, customisation of listings and reporting systems. Furthermore, this update tied in with the roll-out of ‘INSTADOCS’, a new ‘Data-Room’ capability. LAUNCH OF INSTADOCS INSTADOCS is the latest significant and most powerful feature available to our Agency clients. Its data-driven technology promotes smarter Agent decision-making by facilitating the distribution of vital documentation to prospective purchasers, whilst simultaneously tracking their engagement. INSTADOCS allows our Agency clients to approve or deny user-access at their
own discretion, personalise their own address books for bulk mailouts, and create and send generic links to those outside of the DevelopmentReady ecosystem. LAUNCH OF LOCAL AREA EXPERTS September saw the launch of our ‘Local Area Experts’ – a new initiative that connects property buyers with industry experts such as architectural, town planning, builders or financial services. Through this feature industry experts can geographically target and market their services to property developers whilst they are actively viewing prospective development sites. 2019 OVERVIEW Overall activity in 2019 started slow with a lay-over from 2018’s market downturn. Amongst other factors, we saw a direct correlation between the uncertain result of the Federal Government election and the historically low volume of listings from January through May. After the unanticipated ‘miracle’ election win from the Liberal-National Coalition, and the retainment of the Negative Gearing policy, the property floodgates opened and a surge of development sites hit the market. This momentum carried through the remainder of the year with an unprecedentedly busy November and early December period. A November recovery in housing prices further supported the returning market confidence - we watched with smiles as Perth’s inner and Western suburbs achieved their first (albeit modest) overall price increase in more than a year and a half. PREDICTIONS & OUTLOOK FOR 2020 Will the momentum from the back half of 2019 carry through to 2020? We think so. Following regular contact and discussion with our agency clientele, a backlog of sites are in the preparation phase to launch at the commencement of the new year. Housing prices are also tipped to further recover in 2020, with lending restrictions also set to ease as the smoke from the Banking Royal Commission clears; we predict a healthy appetite for development site opportunities and increased competition for acquisition.

In Conversation: William & Jonathan Deague
The Deague Group is a 160-year-old integrated property development company. Their long and illustrious history positions the Deague family as true pioneers as well as modern-day innovators within the Australian property development arena. Now firmly guided by its fifth generation, this family-operated business continues to be highly acclaimed and lauded across the property industry. Trailblazing brothers William and Jonathan respectively hold the CEO and MD roles with their father and industry doyen, David as Chairman. While possibly best-known for their highly original Art Series Hotels, the Deague Group has numerous innovative and large-scale developments that keep it at the forefront of modern residential and commercial projects. In addition, their property development activity is complemented by a collection of businesses including real estate, office management, work spaces and car parking We recently sat down with dynamic brothers William and Jonathan to explore how their family operation has sustained its commercial success. The following is an excerpt of their recent video interview.
In Conversation: William & Jonathan Deague Deague Group
04
The Deague Group has a long history in Australian property, can you tell us a little bit about how it all started? (William) William H. Deague, our greatgreat-grandfather, migrated to Australia in 1867 and started out in what was formerly known as Sandhurst, but we know today as Bendigo, during the Victorian gold rush. He was of notable renown and influence in the area and was even one of the original founding members of the Master Builders Association. And today his legacy continues through the two of you? (William) Absolutely, the business remains and always has been a family-operated business. Our father took over from his father and we’ve all but completely taken over from him. Everything that is learnt has been passed on to the next generation and we’re incredibly fortunate to have that legacy and wealth of experience and knowledge granted to us. Did you go down any other career paths, or were you eager to jump into the family business? (Jonathan) I initially went to university; however, I was keen to enter the workforce quickly and so traded my student card for my real estate licence and joined Dad at Deague Group. I basically then became his shadow, trying to absorb every bit of knowledge from meetings, interactions, site visits etc. After trying out a range of areas, I found my strength and interest in sales and marketing – more the operations side of the business. It was pretty soon out of high-school and so the learning curve was steep, but it was a well-rounded and invaluable experience.

(William) It’s a similar story for me too. I don’t think that it was ever thought that we wouldn’t join the family business. I can remember when we were 13 or 14 years of age, spending our summer holidays helping shovel dirt on sites in Queensland. We were primed for it from an early age but all that early physical experience really has fed our broad understanding and capability today. Has the business changed since you both have taken on more senior roles? Are you still pursuing the same style of projects? (William) Over the past 20 years, we’ve been very busy and have taken on a lot more risk than normal, but this is a result of our ambitious personalities – and it’s paid off too. One project that stands out is the Art Series Hotels which we started 10 years ago and left two years ago. That was a very good property play, as we don’t think of ourselves as hoteliers, but our involvement and execution was strategic. We’ve also stepped up our apartment projects in the past five to seven years, with a couple of thousand apartments in Brisbane, Adelaide, Box Hill and West Melbourne. And Jonathan you handle the operations side of the business, does your workload correspond with William’s? (Jonathan) Yes, it definitely does; it has been a busy time on my side too as marketing and sales flows on from any project we develop. We’ve grown our real estate business and
currently have around 1,000 property managements. We also started our serviced office business around 20 years ago and this has also seen a big lift in the past couple of years; we’re currently sitting at around 98% occupied in the assets we own or manage. What motivated the move into the serviced office sector so early, before the more recent flood of organisation such as WeWork? (Jonathan) Firstly, it was there to fill up some ground floor space and help activate the building. Secondly, it helped grow the business within our company. A client might come in on a one-person office, then they might move to take a long-term lease in the building, or they might move up to buying an office. As their business grows, they feed us as well. Going back to the Art Series Hotels, what lead you into that space considering you don’t consider yourselves hoteliers? (William) We bought an old hospital in Preston in the year 2000 and it was a huge space that we converted into 850 units. To fill all of these, we started creating different hotel brands positioned at different tiers; budget, mid-tier, high-end, student accommodation etc. It was a good experience and we learnt a lot out there. Then we were inspired by some work overseas, in particular by Ian Schrager who was responsible for Studio 54 among many other things. He was the first one to do boutique hotels properly.
Nothing was being built in Australia like what he was doing in America – so we decided to run with it. In the space of six months, we opened three hotels on three different sites around Melbourne. We did everything; came up with the brand, the concept, did the builds – and thankfully it seemed to work. But they were still a strategic real estate play. We bought them at the right level, and we sold them at the right level. We sold the freehold to investors and then Mecure Hotels knocked on our door two years ago and wanted to buy the business – we were happy to exit. We did have one hotel in Brisbane that was yet-to-completed which we kept ourselves and we still manage that. Can you run us through how you came up with the brand, plan and strategy and how you executed it as well as you did? (William) We took a lot of inspiration from what was happening overseas and identifying aspects that weren’t yet in the Australian market. But the journey and the plan itself was catalysed by our concern with cash flow. I think that every developer at some stage experiences the ups and downs of market cycles, so we asked ourselves how we could combat this. For us the obvious place to start was cash flow and the Art Series was born as a solution to help smooth those ups and downs. Continued on Next Page →
In Conversation: William & Jonathan Deague
Are you seeing any opportunities in the current market? (William) If a site came up for sale in the city with an old permit for residential development – we’d buy it tomorrow. We’ve got a lot of confidence in the apartment market and I’ve been singing from the rooftops for years that we’re about to enter one of the biggest periods of apartment undersupply ever. Population is going up and cranes are coming down. (Jonathan) We also see substantial opportunity in the affordable housing sector. If you look at St Kilda at the moment, there’s fair bit of apartment development but it’s mainly in the luxury space and that doesn’t assist population growth. As a general rule, we aim to appease the masses and deliver liveable, well-designed one-bedroom apartments, not penthouses. What fundamentals do you look for when buying and developing residential sites? (William) We look for good prices and the potential yield, and I think that we’ve always done this well. For example, at our
↓ 101 Moray Street, South Melbourne.
06
Box Hill site, we paid $12.8 million and obtained a permit for 650 apartments, which worked out at around $16,000 per apartment. Half the profit is in the way you buy. Are there any technologies or innovations that have changed your operations? (William) Jono’s very innovative and recently came up with an idea to offer a very luxurious Mercedes Sprinter as a free commuting benefit for the tenants of our six-building development in Moray Street, South Melbourne. The van will have a driver and perform continuous loops going from the apartment complex, into the city, past Kings Business Park and back again. (Jonathan) We’re also investing in apps and technology to improve the accessibility of the commercial tenants at our South Melbourne site. For example, you can track the Mercedes Sprinter van on your phone, and you can even enter the building with a simple shake of your phone at the door. As technologies and amenities improve, are tenants demands evolving too?
(Jonathan) Absolutely, and this has been a big focus here at Deague. We’ve just taken over 25% of the carpark in South Melbourne to install a fully functioning health club with all the bells and whistles. We also put on monthly events for the tenants. But these are now becoming standard features of any modern apartment and commercial complex. So, we’re looking at how we can go beyond that and reach the next level. How do you see the market evolving through 2020? (William) It’s looking strong. Debt is cheap and yields still have a little bit more to go; compared to overseas yields are still very attractive. I also think that we’ll see more and more money coming out of Asia which will prop up our housing market. Rental is going to be very strong for residential too. I think we’re looking at a very promising few years ahead. And what does next year, and further into the future, look like for Deague Group? (William) Well our family business has been around for over 150 years and with
The Property Development Review
that comes a certain level of stability. But during our tenure over the past 25 years or so, it’s been incredibly busy. We’ve got a number of projects that will reach completion phase in early next year and so will have more capacity to pursue new projects. With the lifting market, we’ll be scouring new development sites which we’re expecting to come online early in 2020 and we’ll be filling out our pipeline for the next few years. We’re both young and very ambitious, so we’ll be keeping busy as normal, looking for new opportunities and ways to grow not just the business but our business intelligence too.

We’re about to enter one of the biggest periods of apartment undersupply ever. William Deague, Deague Group
Interview by Rob Langton, Development Ready
Market Moves: 2019's Biggest Sales
08
Market Moves: 2019's Biggest Sales Victoria Charter Hall and Canada’s Public Sector Pension Investment Board came together to acquire the 47-storey, A-grade CBD office tower at 242 Exhibition Street, in an off-market transaction worth $830 million. The tower retained 100% occupancy by Telstra and underwent a $67 million upgrade to the lifts and base building areas before the sale. But this impressive sale wasn’t the only CBD and CBD-fringe tower to make waves through the year as the GPT Wholesale Office Fund took 100% ownership of their Southbank office tower, at 2 Southbank Boulevard, securing the remaining half share for just over $326 million from Frasers Property Australia. 595 Collins Street, a 20-storey dual-connected tower spanning 3,778sqm with three ground-floor shops and 145 basement car spaces, also traded hands, moving from South Korea's National Pension Service to Hong Kong investor Foo Hang Jewellery for $314 million. While Boston-based AEW Capital Management stumped up some $200 million for a 22-storey office on a corner site at 31 Queen Street. In the suburbs, Dahua Group paid $140 million for a 98.4-hectare site at 688 Aviation Road, Point Cook. The large site neighbours a 96-hectare block at 640 Aviation Road, which the property group purchased for $52 million in 2016. Melbourne’s suburban office assets also proved a hot commodity, particularly in the south-east, with Singapore property giant Ascendas REIT picking up a new eight-level Mulgrave office building, set for completion in mid-2020, for close to $111 mil-
lion. The development spearheaded by a joint venture between Asia-based real estate platform ESR and Frasers Property, and will serve as the new national headquarters for carmaker Nissan. Frasers Property Australia had a considerably good year in the industrial sector, picking up a 41.3-hectare industrial development site in Dandenong South for around $80 million; this follows its $40 million acquisition of a 63.4-hectare block in Epping late in 2018 – where it is also proposing an industrial park. Another major suburban office deal made news with Melbourne's Zagame family agreeing to $55 million for a Hawthorn building currently leased to Swinburne University. The four-storey building was originally held by Sydney-based investment firms Trumen Corp and Bricktop Group, who paid $37 million for it in 2015. Large shopping and lifestyle centres also had their fill with Woolworths selling a 26.47-Ha land parcel adjacent to the newly built Mernda Train Station for $51.5 million. Primewest added the Geelong Gate Lifestyle Centre in Corio to their Third Diversified Income Trust for $44.25 million. While a local family picked up the Highpoint Lifestyle Centre in Maidstone for $25 million. Newmark Capital also splashed out $51 million on a yet-to-be-completed large-format retail centre in the regional Victorian town of Warragul.
New South Wales Charter Hall was busy around the nation, and in Sydney they partnered with Abacus to purchase 201 Elizabeth Street CBD tower for $630 million. The partnership
comprised of a 68% and 32% split respectively. The Charter Hall Retail REIT also dived into the Rockdale Plaza, spending $142 million and receiving 21,000sqm of lettable area and 907 car parks in return. Yuhu Group finally settled on the $380 million acquisition of the six-hectare Bakehouse Quarter site in North Strathfield. It bought the property from BlackWall in mid-2017 then exercised extension options to finalise the purchase. The property has long-term potential to be replaced with a new township with an end value of about $1 billion. Stockland secured the remaining 50% share of Sydney’s Piccadilly Centre from Oxford Properties for $347 million. Simultaneously, Stockland sold off its half share of the nearby 135 King Street and the Glasshouse shopping centre for $340 million. In more Glasshouse, but this time in Macquarie Park, Charter Hall signed off on an off-market property, securing two 50% stakes in the Macquarie Park Glasshouse office building for a total of $331.3 million. Each share was purchased by two different Charter Hall trusts/funds. The new acquisition was sold with a pre-commitment to the NSW Government on a 12-year lease. Another of Sydney’s biggest CBD office tower deals of year arose from the trading of the Central Square complex trading hands to global fund manager LaSalle Investment Management for $325 million. North Sydney continued to blossom through the year, with developer Billbergia securing a buyer for the hotel component of their 48-storey mixed-use tower for $202 million. The 252-room hotel is expected to be completed in 2021 in what will then become North Sydney’s tallest tower. Stockland was also stalking around North Sydney, picking up two office towers for a combined $121 million. The towers adjoin Stockland's existing building at 110 Walker Street and provide a total 2,300sqm

redevelopment site close to the future Victoria Cross metro station. Parramatta asserted itself as a hot ticket on more than one occasion with Centuria's A-grade Wentworth Street office tower trading to Singapore-based SC Capital for $105.3 million. Wentruth Pty Ltd, another Asian investor and new entrant to the Australian market, moved into the western district capital with an $80 million acquisition of a six-storey office building in Parramatta's CBD. Raffles Education bought the property in 2014 for $29 million and have been looking for a buyer since their only campus closed earlier this year. Offices and hotels continued making news in and out of Sydney’s central area. In Darlinghurst, an office property sold to Melbourne-based commercial property investment group Marks Henderson for $92.75 million. The first transaction to be made via a NSW court-ordered strata renewal collective sale saw the Seasons Harbour Plaza serviced apartment hotel, at 252 Sussex Street in Sydney, settle for around $81 million. The Novartis Building in Macquarie Park was sold to funds manager RF Corval for around $62m. An office strata block at 270-272 Pacific Highway in Crows Nest was picked up by Chinese-backed investor China Venture for close to $60 million. And the Redcape Hotel Group recently parted with the St George Hotel in Sydney's south-west suburb of Belmore for $47.1 million.
Queensland Private Canadian investor Quadra Pacific sold their Brisbane office tower at 288 Edward Street for $115 million in a joint venture purchase involving US real estate investment management firm Heitman and Marquette Properties. Another Edward Street asset, this time at number 171, sold to Dexus in an off-market transaction worth more than $80 million . The asset was sold with an approved permit for an 81-storey, 274m tall skyscraper encompassing 642 apartments and a number of shops, however it was speculated that Dexus will proceed with a commercial tower instead. Brisbane's office market enjoyed a steady recovery after 25 Montpelier Road in Bowen Hills traded to Centuria for $65.4 million, with the new owners stating that they have strong expectations for Brisbane office growth to "ramp up in the next six to 12 months".
09
Hotel mogul Dr Jerr y Schwartz picked up a Gold Coast hotel at a significant discount after developer Ralan Group went into administration in August. Paradise Resort, a 360-room family-oriented hotel in Surfers Paradise, settled for $43 million , just four years after Ralan Group paid $75 million for the site. A 14-storey office building located at 420 George Street in Brisbane’s legal district has sold for just over $42 million to Dymocks Properties and saw an over double return for previous owners, Melbourne’s Forza Capital, who purchased the property in 2015 for $20 million.
the sales revealed that demand for industrial assets at a time of low stock, was pushing investors beyond the core east-coast markets. After 66 years of operation, Coca-Cola Amatil sold its historic Thebarton (former) bottling site to Australasian Property Developments (APD) for $37.3 million. The new owners have long-term plans to redevelop the 3.5-hectare Port Road site into a mix of commercial and residential uses. The sale also included two nearby smaller sites.
Western Australia South Australia Lendlease sold their half share in Adelaide's biggest mall, Westfield Marion , for $670 million to a property trust
sponsored by Singapore Press Holdings at a discount of more than 9% of its book value. It was a sale that was eagerly watched by the national market, with many seeing the result as a benchmark for the valuation of major malls across Australia. Lendlease did however receive far above the expected price of $115 million for their A-grade Flinders Street office and carpark property in Adelaide’s CBD, securing a sale to Centuria Capital Group for $127 million . Singapore-listed property trust, Suntec REIT, snapped up the Allianz Centre in Adelaide for $148.3 million . The sale was the fifth Adelaide office tower to sell for over $100 million in close to 12-months, highlighting the growing appetite for commercial assets in this central precinct. The 12-storey A-grade tower was previously owned by private syndicator Arc Equity Partners who secured it for $81 million in 2011. Renewed activity continued across Adelaide’s CBD with Real I.S. Group’s successful acquisition of an A-grade tower at 100 Waymouth Street for $85 million . And Charter Hall snapping up a central, city office from Blackstone, this time at 121 King William Street , for $82.25 million . Investec Australia Property Fund struck a deal to secure three industrial assets in Gillman (SA), Welshpool (WA) and East Arm (NT) from Charter Hall’s Prime Industrial Fund for a combined $81 million. JLL's Australia head of capital markets, Tony Iuliano, noted that
Ahead of its planned $255 million public listing, ASX-listed Elanor Investors Group agreed to two separate acquisitions; one at 200 Adelaide Street in Brisbane and one at the A-grade WorkZone commercial building in Perth’s CBD. The fund already owns 51% of the Perth property, which it bought for $125.25 million in 2018. There was more activity in the western capital’s central business district, with a seven-level A-grade office building at 226 Adelaide Terrace in Perth's eastern CBD precinct trading from American private equity giant Blackstone to Primewest for $86 million . An office tower at 66 St Georges Terrace, formerly belonging to Canada's Oxford Properties, also sold successfully for $72 million . Retail and shopping centre movements weren’t just isolated to the east coast, as the unlisted Charter Hall Direct Consumer Staples Fund secured a Bunnings-anchored retail centre in Claremont in an off-market deal worth $35 million and a neighbourhood shopping centre in Alkimos traded to a private local investor for just over $34 million .
Woolworths also divested its self-anchored Banskia Grove shopping centre in Perth’s north for $27.28 million to a private Singapore-based investor. The iconic Subiaco Hotel in Perth was also put up for sale, the first time in over 50 years, reaching settlement in a quiet deal speculated at over $10 million.

House Price Growth Continues at Record Pace Residential property prices rose 2.4 per cent in the September quarter 2019 according to official figures released on Tuesday, the strongest quarterly growth since 2016. After almost two years of tumbling prices of between 10 and 15 per cent in Sydney and Melbourne, the housing market has turned a corner thanks to the help of three cash rates cuts — now sitting at a record low of 0.75 per cent. In tandem the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority loosened lending restrictions that had required banks to assess all borrowers against their capacity to repay the loan at 7 per cent. The market has reacted strongly with values just 3.7 per cent lower than they were just 12 months ago across capitals and competition noticeably increasing among home buyers across the country. House prices in the country's two biggest cities continued to experience a sharp uptrend over the September quarter with many dormant buyers taking advantage of lower prices. Sydney and Melbourne residential property prices recorded strong growth in the September quarter
2019 with both cities seeing a 3.6 per cent increase. Hobart saw an increase of 1.3 per cent with Brisbane values lifting 0.7 per cent. Meanwhile, Perth and Adelaide both saw declines. The positive outlook has been reinforced by the weekend's auction clearance rates in Sydney of 79 per cent, a 47 per cent rise on the same time last year. In Melbourne clearance rates hit 74 per cent, up 45 per cent on the previous corresponding period. Moving forward, Moody's Analytics expects Sydney house prices to jump 7.7 per cent next year and a further 7.6 per cent by 2021. Melbourne is tipped to rack up 7 per cent growth next year and another 7.8 per cent in 2021. Strong population growth, a shortage of supply, and a kick back in home prices could also reignite the construction downturn which contracted for a 15th consecutive month in November. According to the Commonwealth Bank of Australia, the continued decline in housing construction — with falling approvals pointing to further declines in activity ahead — will cause an undersupply of housing from late-2020.

The Property Development Review
PRICES Victoria is experiencing a period of renewed opportunity and confidence. After a two-year struggle following the peak of 2017, the housing markets are experiencing a welcomed uptick in activity; there’s change in the air. Melbourne saw a 2.4% rise in housing prices over the last month, with a 5.7% rise over the last quarter. Units rose 2.0% and 5% over the last month and quarter respectively. On top of this, the average selling time of a Melbourne home is at 32 days, one day down from this time last year; vendors’ discount rates have also fallen from the same time last year, dropping on average by 0.5 points from 4.9% to 4.4%; and auction rates are on the rise with new vendors looking to capitalise on improving conditions. The recent quarterly pick-up however, is significantly more noticeable in the inner and middle ring suburbs, while the more cost-effective, outer ring neighbourhoods are expected to follow in their wake through early 2020. ACTIVITY Development activity started slow in Melbourne causing a ripple effect that resulted in fewer properties listed and a decline in buyers. Advisors and commentators who purported that a period of dire straits was to come, began to smirk a not-so-subtle “I told you so”. However, while tough times did come to pass, the market stabilisation for Melbourne returned sooner than their expectations. Following the results of the national election, as well as some relaxed credit restrictions, first-home buyers have stepped into the ring looking to secure their slice before property values rise again. Equally, astute developers and investors have been able to plan out their pipelines with the acquisition of under-valued assets. Affordability and accessibility boosted demand in regional towns too and pushed Ballarat among the top performing regional towns in Australia; on average, houses sold within 33 days there, compared to the 90day national average for regional districts. Melbourne CBD also recorded the lowest vacancy rate amongst all national CBDs at just 3.3%. As tenants fought for remaining space, net face rents were inevitably pushed up and rental growth for 2019 was strong. Developers who saw this coming have been active in securing sites resulting in the highest sales volumes of the past 10 years, in the 12-months to September 2019.

TRENDS The short supply that remained as a layover consequence of the slow first half of 2019 has contributed to increased demand as competition is renewed among buyers. Melbourne’s suburbs are continuing to out-price many home-buyers and this is causing heads to turn to Geelong, Ballarat and Bendigo as alternatives; housing and price growth out in these regional cities is yet to be fully realised. They are also supported by state government initiatives which will see the relocation of government jobs, as well as incentives such as payroll tax breaks offered to private companies who make the regional transition. Regional opportunities have also been revealed along the coastal stretch between Torquay and Lorne. Regarding the latter in particular, house and unit prices fell by 7.9% and 9.9%, respectively, after a three-year positive streak.
2020 PREDICTIONS Melbourne is regarded as one of the fastest growing major cities of the developed world. The next four years are going to see the population increase by 10%, with much of this fuelled by overseas migration. We’re anticipating a prosperous 2020 in the Victorian state capital, with astute property firms cementing their longterm plans and regional growth starting to become a bigger focus. First home buyers will remain keen to capitalise on improving market conditions, and those priced out of the central CBD will begin to look at outer ring towns with good public transport and road linkage. The areas surrounding Sunshine, Box Hill and Cranbourne are all well placed for the next year. Further out, we expect Bendigo, Ballarat and Geelong to continue to prove their value.

The Property Development Review
PRICES The Sydney property market is enjoying one of the quickest turnarounds it has seen in decades. As a result of the calm that settled following the Coalition government’s election win, Sydney home values have recovered 5.3% of the 14.9% market correction and are now siting relatively close to their 2016 values. With the rise expected to continue, and if it does so with the same rate, we could see values exceed previous highs by the middle of next year – an exciting thought. The average selling time of Sydney homes is down from 44 days this time last year to 38 days. Vendors are also discounting their properties less, with an average of 4.4% compared to 6.2% 12-months ago. City-fringe suburbs have seen slight improvements to their median house prices; Surry Hills for example recorded $1.49 million in March and $1.635 million in October. ACTIVITY Nationally, property values recorded the fourth consecutive month of growth in October, and New South Wales is eager to reclaim its crown as Australia’s best-performing market. Due to concerns regarding construction standards, many investors have chosen to abandon and steer clear of the off-the-plan apartment sector. This may cause significant headaches for those who purchased a few years ago and are now struggling with valuations that come below contract price upon completion. The New South Wales government, however, has passed changes to the Convey-

25
ancing Act, in efforts to protect the future of off-the-plan purchasers in the state. The recent changes impose stricter requirements on developers regarding disclosures, cooling-off periods, holding of deposits, and sunset clauses, particularly concerning off-theplan purchases. Sydney public transport was also a focus for the Government in 2019, with 2020 set to benefit wholeheartedly. The Metro North West Line opened early in the year, allowing for improved accessibility to secondary office precincts in Norwest and Macquarie Park; an additional line for Chatswood has further strengthened this precinct; and the light rail project along George Street brings further CBD convenience. TRENDS As predicted early in 2019, the fallout from the Royal Commission, the unknown ramifications of a national election and the potential changes to negative gearing definitely rocked buyer confidence. CoreLogic have noted that there’s evidence to show that Sydney home owners, having seen a substantial rise in housing equity over recent years, are now “starting to look for holiday and investment properties in certain regional markets” and that this has provided an “impetus for some of the value growth we are currently seeing.” NSW's Central Coast lines up among some of the country's best performing regions and will be attentively watched through next year.
2020 PREDICTIONS The 2020 outlook is vastly different to that of last year’s, when Sydney and Melbourne were leading the national downturn. With confidence in the market returning, we’re expecting to see this build upon itself and pick up the pace through the first quarter. While investors are wary about recently constructed off-the-plan builds, the future of off-the-plan in NSW looks bright. The recent government changes are an effort to remedy concern, as the sector has proved quite successful over the past decade and now represents 10.6% of residential property sales. "Buying off-the-plan is a popular option, particularly for first-home buyers, but there can be risks and uncertainties involved," Minister for Customer Service Victor Dominello said. Precincts set to benefit from improved public transport infrastructure, including Chatswood and Macquarie Park, absolutely appear on the hot ticket list. While Newcastle and the Central Coast (Umina, Woy Woy, Ettalong) are neatly positioned to continue their strong annual growth.
Q&A: Harj Uppal
26
Q&A: Harj Uppal Ralton Property Group As its founder, can you talk us through the origin of Ralton Property Group? Ultimately it stemmed from a dissatisfaction with the status quo of services available to property developers and property agents. I’ve been in the industry for a number of years and have worked with many different groups, and I wasn’t happy with how those businesses were being run; there was no real hands-on approach to the market, so I wanted to create something with a point of difference. I wanted to create a team that had real knowledge when it came to development sites and project sales. What are the principal operations and functions of your business? Ralton Property Group covers a multitude of operations including sales, which extend from completed residential projects to large-scale greenfield sites, leasing and property management, project management and more. The most important factor to note here, however, is that even though we work on behalf of the developer for acquisitions, we work extra hard to deliver a transaction that the vendors are comfortable with too. We look after our clients by ensuring that all parties walk away content and respected. To achieve this we adhere to a few points of distinction that our clients have come to praise us for; these include: • 24/7 accessibility • The depth of our review into planning controls • Our feasibility reports which consistently meet developer expectations • And our intricate and detailed understanding of legal documentation I’m extremely proud of the way we conduct ourselves and you only have to read the tes-
timonials, or speak to our clients, to see that the feeling is mutual. Where does Ralton Property Group operate? Are you content for the moment or are you looking to expand? Our office is based in Rosebery, NSW, however we operate across the entire state. We’ve also been involved in a number of notable deals in Queensland and Victoria, and have very close relationships with groups in Singapore and South East Asia. I think it is impossible to be content in our business and we are always looking to expand the team. However, the most important factor to RPG is our team dynamic and the chemistry, not growth for growth’s sake. Where do you find your clients and what are their backgrounds? Is finding clients a challenge? We have a very tight-knit but vast network of clients, which has been building upon itself over time. Successful transactions often result in client referrals, but we also started Ralton Property Group with an array of trusted relationships. We’re also lucky that within our network we’re not pigeon-holed to one type of client, so we speak to and work with large public companies as well as small boutique developers and investors. Were you always interested in real estate? What lead you into the industry? I remember reading a great quote from Mark Twain, which goes; buy land, they’re not making it anymore. And I think that really speaks to me and why I love real estate. Real Estate can often seem a simple industry from the outside, just buying and selling land, but there’s an abundance of layers, inner markets and variation that pulled me in – and my interest has never waned.
Who or where do you think you learnt the most, or learnt what was necessary to commence your own operation? I think I can honestly say that I’ve learnt the most from the mistakes that I’ve made. They say a mistake is just a step on the road to success and I can absolutely stand behind that sentiment. They’ll not only make you smarter, but also thicken your skin – both of which you’ll need if you want to make it in this industry. What does “a day in the life” look like for you within Ralton Property Group? No two days are the same and I absolutely love it. However, in the moments that we find between client interactions, we’re often educating ourselves, diving deeper into market intricacies, new legislations, rezoning, or general industry news and affairs. Our office is a great environment where we bounce information off each other, constantly sharing and learning something new. You’ve mentioned previously that a key to your success is your “personal approach” – can you explain what that entails? I think it’s important, in our business, to be hands on with our clients. This extends into activities and services that might not have any real fiscal value, but are beneficial to them; such as viewing the materials and finishes of a project with the developer to not only guide them with our expertise, but also to instil confidence and support them. We take the call and show our clients how much they mean to us every day, and the business is the better for it. Do you think that there have been any other keys to your success? Sitting down and learning from leaders in the industry. Whether it be a builder, devel-

After extensive experience in property development and site acquisition, Harj Uppal branched out in late-2017 to open his own real estate service firm, Ralton Property Group. While some would have you believe that commencing operations during a market downturn is a fool’s errand, Harj believes the experience is what sets his company apart from the rest. This unique perspective, coupled with his ‘hands-on’ philosophy, are just some of the reasons that Ralton Property Group has gone from strength to strength in a notably short space of time. We sat down with him recently to discuss this in further detail.
oper or architect, I always find it insightful to see how they see the market or what they have learnt from previous real estate cycles. What are some of the projects that you are currently working on, have recently completed, or have in the pipeline that you’re proud of? Two recent deals come to mind immediately... 6 McIntosh Street, Chatswood, was an acquisition on behalf of developer looking to create an amalgamated master site that would eventually yield a mixed commercial tower with a potential height exceeding 110m. This was a complex and unique transaction that took not only patience but a real personal understanding on behalf of all parties. 16 & 18 Rainbow Street, Kingsford, involved the amalgamation and sale of 12 apartments over two blocks of land that will lead to a student accommodation development. It was unique because the site sold outright upon future planning controls, detailing our depth of knowledge from the initial feasibility stage. Were there difficult times when you started Ralton Property Group? How did you overcome them? When we opened Ralton Property Group it was during the market down turn of 2017/2018 – so it was tough to say the least. However, we backed ourselves and our team and turned it into a success. Generally real estate businesses open during a progressive market, but we did the opposite and I’m thankful for that now. We’re prepared for the future in a manner dissimilar to many other property groups, and I think this is a great advantage. Do you think you’ll operate differently during the dips and peaks? Do you have any advice for those starting out during a market downturn as you did?
What we really benefited from when we started out was building our pipeline. A lot of agents and business get lost in trying to get the deal that pays now, which is important, but if you don’t have a strong pipeline and the market takes a dip, you’ll soon find yourself trying to play catch up. You should also leverage your network. Be visible, whether it be in your area or within your core market, people need to know who you are and how to find you. For those entering the industry, do you have any advice for where to start? Find a market or segment and really work on that. So, if you’re going to sell sites, con-
centrate all your energy within that mark. Don’t try and sell sites whilst also trying to lease residential homes. You will find yourself getting lost and mismanaging deals. Try and master, or at least become comfortable with, one before or if you decide to try doing something else as well.

The Property Development Review
PRICES Brisbane tells a remarkably different story of 2019 to that of Sydney and Melbourne, who have arguably shared a similar market correction and rectification over the past couple of years. This however doesn’t arrive with much surprise as the Sunshine State is renowned for its calm nature both in life and in price movements. The state did in fact experience a downturn and a return, though the former was notably shallower and the latter relatively minor as compared to its capital city brethren. The state cities continued to make it clear that proximity to main activity centres is frequently a determining factor in performance. While, interestingly, desirable school zones were revealed as another strong indicator a suburb’s potential price growth. ACTIVITY CBD and fringe precincts, including King Street, Ann Street, Gasworks and South Brisbane proved very popular with investors, with demand primarily focused towards for Prime and A-grade buildings. 2019 has revealed another good year for experienced investors with some achieving up to 25% capital growth over the past three years. Vacancy levels for Prime CBD accommodation are the lowest they have been since mid-2015 at 8.7%. Vacancy for A-grade buildings rests at 10%, slightly above January 2019, however this is still at a near low point for the past five years. Residentially it was Queensland’s regional towns that proved their worth, with

Blackwater taking poll position in CoreLogic’s Top Rental Performers list. The suburb offers rental returns as high as 11.7% on average, while house prices are very low at a median of under $150,000 – vacancy is razor thin. Maryborough and the Fraser Coast region are also in the midst of extremely low vacancy, with averages around 0.9%. TRENDS Tropical Queensland saw a bouncing back in terms of both sales volumes and house values. Rising local economic conditions resulted from high commodity prices, a low Australian dollar and increased mining activity have all benefitted the overall property market in this region. Mackay-Isaac-Whitsunday even outperformed all non-metro and regional property markets with 5.9% capital growth over the past 12 months. Queensland continued to enjoy an increasing Net Interstate Migration (NIM) and affluent holiday-home seekers from Sydney and Melbourne have contributed to a boost of residential house prices. In the year ended 31 March 2019, Queensland recorded the highest NIM net gain with 23,300 people; this was followed by Victoria with 12,800 people. The Sunshine State has proved popular for overseas migration as well receiving 27.9% of Australia’s total migrants, the second highest after Western Australia. Both NIM and NOM are important factors that property owners should keep an eye on, as they usually follow in tandem with increased real estate values.
2020 PREDICTIONS As other property markets experience declines, Brisbane has consistently stayed resilient; proving a safe and attractive bet for property investors. With the mining industry moving at a slower pace these days, tourism is well set take on the hero task of boosting the state’s economy. According to the CoreLogic CHIP (Cordell House Index Price) Report for July 2019, overseas investors are looking to construct largescale resorts in the northern part of the state, as well as new residential properties in 2020. This could foster considerable population growth in the coming years. The BIS Oxford Economics property forecast placed Brisbane in the best position for national house price gains, with expectations that the median house price will jump 20% by 2022. Brisbane’s economy is also set to flourish from major projects including Queen’s Wharf, HS Wharf, TradeCoast, Cross River Rail, the second airport runway and the Adani Coal Mine, however the real-time benefits from these won’t kick in for a couple of years past 2020.

The Property Development Review
PRICES Following the tumultuous economical state born in the aftermath of the mining boom, Western Australia is still dealing with a somewhat struggling economy and weak housing market; but there are opportunities just around the corner. The back end of the year has produced some solid results and an increase in the number of buyers. This is good news as WA currently sits amongst the most affordable property states across the nation. Low stock levels have also started to replenish. Katanning was identified by CoreLogic as a strong rental performer making into their Top 100 list for September 2019 at number five. The generally youthful neighbourhood still holds a very affordable median house price of just over $150,000, while median rent returns $250 a week. ACTIVITY Sydney and Melbourne are leading the turnaround but the most surprising result has arrived from the west coast capital, with Perth recovering seeing its first monthon-month dwelling-value increase since the market’s downward trajectory held steadyish in early 2018. The state government has also recently unveiled a $150 million housing investment package aiming to boost the local economy. The package is comprised of three sections: $125 million for the construction of 300 public housing units for homeless and vulnerable people on the priority waiting list; around $6m for the renovation of 20 regional and 50 metropolitan public housing properties; and
↓ Image: Development Ready
53
$19m to be coursed through Key Start for 200 additional shared equity homes. The deal is set to contribute an additional 1,000 jobs to the construction industry and will help address housing affordability issues plus assist first-home buyers. TRENDS While office vacancy in Perth is the highest of all the capitals, it has reduced to the lowest levels since mid-2015. Co-working spaces began increasing their prominence with many new openings through the year. The demand for assets such as these is backed up by the growing number of small businesses and start-ups entering the market looking to minimise overheads. Larger corporate enterprises are also taking an interest in flexible work spaces to mitigate risk during the current local economic climate. Outside of the city, lifestyle and affordability factors are touted as main drivers for the improving markets and rolling into 2020 we’re expecting to see much more of this. For example, 180 kilometres south of Perth in the port town of Bunbury, sales volumes rose by 0.8% - the highest increase recorded across the nation for 2019 by a regional centre. Net overseas migration also increased by 42.7% this year; the largest increase in Australia. 2020 PREDICTIONS Perth’s commercial market does appear to have its darkest times behind it. There’s a new day dawning, but
that’s not to say that there won’t be some challenges ahead. A-grade and premium spaces are set to perform better than lesser grade and strata titled office accommodation, which continue to suffer from oversupply and low demand. WA’s population is expected to receive a boost over the next few years thanks to numerous new mining ventures, which are estimated to be creating 11,000 new jobs in the construction phase alone. The rental market will be the first to benefit from increased migration. Residual concerns laid over from the previous mining boom will no doubt have a negative effect on the potential uplift in sales volumes as a more conservative line is walked than previously. The Real Estate Institute of WA (REIWA) President, Damian Collins, expects overall market conditions to improve in regional WA during 2020 as a direct result of investment in the mining sector. “In addition to Karratha, Port Hedland and Kalgoorlie are areas to watch in 2020, with the new mining projects going a long way to restoring confidence in these regions. These projects are expected to create thousands of new local jobs, which should continue to support population growth, improve demand for housing and aid recovery,” Mr Collins said.

The Property Development Review
PRICES Much like Brisbane, Adelaide did not suffer the same harsh degree of downturn as Sydney and Melbourne. Property values reached a peak in the South Australian capital in December 2018, and while they have dwindled since then, dwelling values have only fallen 1.2 %. Entering 2020, some speculators have suggested that Adelaide is set for ‘Goldilocks’ conditions, with the BIS Oxford Economics' Residential Property Prospects 2019-2022 report estimating that median property prices in Adelaide will move up from its current position of just under $495,000 to $550,000 in three years. Should this report make good on its forecasts, Adelaide will have the highest property growth in the country after Brisbane, which is tipped to have a 20% increase. The ideal conditions that make the 11% increase possible include aspects such as moderate population growth and a steady supply of housing. According to BIS Oxford Economics associate director Angie Zigomanis, "everything is moderate and nothing is extreme" when it comes to the SA property market. "It hasn't been experiencing an oversupply, like we've seen in places like Brisbane and Perth, or a recent undersupply, like in Sydney and Melbourne.” The office sector in Adelaide continued with a steady performance through the year, with some major sales passing positively; the brunt of success of which is generally isolated to the CBD.

ACTIVITY While there were some big sales in the state, the Adelaide real estate market largely had a docile year. We have seen, however, an increase in investor confidence towards the end of the year. Major infrastructure works, including significant road and rail construction projects, are either planned and ready to go or currently in operation. The medical sector is a strong contributor to the state’s economy as well, with the establishment of the new Royal Adelaide Hospital and highly enticing medical practice and research institutes. The capital is also yet to realise the full impact of the major defence contract it won this year. With skilled labour entering the state at a time coinciding with the property market there are a lot of opportunities set to present themselves early next year. TRENDS After a reasonably stable year, with a slight lift in the back quarter, pockets of Adelaide’s north and south are looking poised for a promising 2020. Gulfview Heights, Munno Para and Munno Para West are good suburbs to watch with good rental return to median house price ratios. Somerton Park, with its tranquil atmosphere and excellent public transport network, is also one to follow. Its designation within the Brighton High School zone is a major benefit, and its coastal lifestyle is becoming a hot commodity. Unit prices were up by 3.3% in the year to August 2019, while the median house price dropped slightly.
2020 PREDICTIONS Most property forecasters agree that Adelaide will continue to remain stable next year with a slight uptick in housing values. While some commentators are expecting this upward trend to continue beyond the 12-month timeline, certain factors such as job growth, ramifications from the proposed land tax and population growth could all play their part in maintaining the state’s famous steady-as-she-goes reputation. But South Australia’s placid repute is not a bad thing. Security in investments is a major positive for this under-the-radar state and there remains significant potential passed over and yet to be exploited by those not doing enough research. As the economy grows and dwelling values increase, Adelaide and its outer regions will prove itself as a highly desirable real-estate destination and one that bears considerably less risk than the other state markets.
