Much of the property market news has shifted from our never-ending housing affordability crisis to the impending property market crash. There’s also been a spotlight placed on the Labor Government’s plans to reform negative gearing policy.

The evolution of Brisbane is one which has been well-documented by us. It’s significant infrastructure pipeline makes it difficult to envisage just how much the city will change in the near future. Understanding the potential impact of these projects is what we believe will be one of the primary drivers for the Brisbane property market. Not only are these projects creating thousands of employment opportunities for Brisbane locals, but they will improve the overall connectivity and lifestyle aspect of Brisbane.

Much of the nation was shocked to see our population surpass 25 million in mid-2018. Australia hit the milestone 33 years earlier than expected, driven by strong immigration levels and economic prosperity. Original forecasts by the government run body didn’t calculate the population to reach the current levels until halfway through the 21st century.

Australia’s population is growing at a pace that wasn’t thought possible 50 years ago. To keep up with our exponential growth levels, construction rates are moving just as fast. Civic, commercial and infrastructural projects are sprouting up in almost every region of our metropolitan rings, creating what is being hailed as a relative infrastructure boom.
Jack Guthrie1 Comment on Melbourne’s Employment Growth Creating Opportunity for Property
Melbourne is growing faster than any other city in Australia. The Victorian capital’s net population growth over the last 2 years has been the largest in Australian history, with 250,000 new residents since 2016 added to the city.

“Satellite cities” are those urban activity centres that lay on the fringes of our capitals and operate through their own semi-independent economies. Melbourne has Geelong, Brisbane has Moreton Bay and Sydney has two in Newcastle and Wollongong. Often, the capital city property markets grow and the surrounding satellite markets leverage off this to create their own growth. As Sydney grew at unprecedented levels, we saw its neighbouring coastal cities in Newcastle and Wollongong replicate similarly strong performance. Demand for these cities is largely driven by their relative affordability and desirability of lifestyle.

In the spirit of Spring Carnival and on the eve of the race that stops the nation, I’ve decided to highlight the similarities between betting on the horses and investing in property. The desired outcome is the same in both to maximise your return.

Buying a home, paying off the mortgage and living happily ever after. This is the starry-eyed dream that the majority of home owners have at the beginning of their mortgage. Figures from the Australian Bureau of Statistics reveal that unfortunately this idea is becoming less and less of a norm in our country. Since 2002, the number of 65-year-old Australians with mortgage debt has tripled. With the average retirement age in Australia hovering around 60 years, this is a worrying sign for future generations.
