Untapped potential: 3 reasons regional property markets are booming

Untapped potential: 3 reasons regional property markets are booming

The PropTrack Regional Australia Report for 2022 has been released and it’s giving us a deep insight into the state of the Australian regional property market. The report shows that there have been some significant changes in the market since the start of the pandemic, and many of these changes are likely to continue in the coming months.

According to the report, regional areas have seen a surge in demand, with many people moving out of the cities and into more affordable regional locations. This trend is expected to continue, with regional areas predicted to see further price growth in the future.

However, the report also reveals that not all regions are performing equally, with some areas experiencing more growth than others. It’s clear that regional buyers need to be aware of the local market conditions and trends, in order to make informed decisions when buying or selling property.

Overall, the PropTrack Regional Australia Report provides valuable insights into the state of the property market in regional areas. If you’re considering buying or selling property in these areas, it’s important to stay informed and make strategic decisions based on the latest market trends and conditions.

Making sense of the real estate downturn

Making sense of the real estate downturn

Australia’s real estate market is undergoing a downturn, causing worry for property owners and investors.

Economic factors such as low interest rates, weakened economy, and tighter lending standards are affecting demand. Oversupply in certain areas, particularly in the apartment market, has led to decreased property prices. Moving from cities to regional areas has also impacted certain areas.

However, it’s important to note that the downturn is not affecting the entire country equally and some areas are still stable or growing. To make informed decisions about property ownership and investment, it’s crucial to understand the context of the market and not just focus on the downturn.

Passive House: How this revolutionary modern development is changing the way we build

Passive House: How this revolutionary modern development is changing the way we build

Over the coming decades, Australia’s population is set to swell and by 2050, it’s likely to increase to somewhere between 34m- 41m people. By the same date, Australia has enshrined in law a commitment to achieve net zero carbon emissions.

Those millions of extra people are going to need somewhere to live — and millions of new homes are going to need to be constructed to house them. On the other hand, the country needs to find ways to dramatically reduce its carbon footprint and embrace a more sustainable way of living.

So, how are we going to get there? A innovative energy-efficient home design called the passive house is helping lead the way towards a lower carbon future.

Stamp duty reforms don’t go far enough to help homebuyers

Stamp duty reforms don't go far enough to help homebuyers

First homebuyers will be given the opportunity to choose between an upfront payment or a smaller annual property tax under reforms aimed at making home ownership more affordable in NSW.

The First Home Buyer Choice scheme is part of a multi-billion dollar housing package to be unveiled in the 2022-23 NSW Budget.

Under the new initiative, first homebuyers who opt into the property tax will pay an annual property tax of $400 plus 0.3 per cent of the land value of the property.

But while these reforms are a step in the right direction to bridge the affordability gap, they don’t go far enough as PropTrack economist Angus Moore explains.
