LOCAL residents Ray and Alison Bird cannot wait to move into their new ElementApartment.
Situated in the exclusive ChurchlandsGreen estate, the project is well under waywith the completion date expected in Julyand first settlements scheduled to befinalised in August/September.
Less than 5km to City Beach and 7km tothe Perth CBD, the estate is a drawcard forthose wanting to downsize and live close tothe coast.
Satisfied buyers and local residents Rayand Alison said buying off the plan was a newexperience for them after living in around 12different homes, many which had been builtfrom scratch in and around the Doubleview,Churchlands and Wembley Downs areas.
“We had already looked to downsizewhen we bought in Wembley Downs 12years ago, but we still had two storeys, gar-dening and all the other maintenance thatcomes with a house,’’ they said.
“Buying an apartment hadn’t even crossedour minds and it had to be in the right place;it wasn’t until we had a look at the originalplans that we considered an apartmentoption; we love the area and the estate itselfis magic so we’re excited about moving in.
“We made some very minor adjustmentsto the plan, but in terms of layout, we stillhave three bedrooms to accommodate astudy and guest room, and the balcony vista issensational – that’s what really wowed us.”
Veteran licensee Bob Johnston of TimeConti Sheffield has over 30 years of experi-ence in selling properties off the plan andattributes much of his success from knowingexactly what his customers are looking for ina property and handling the process person-ally right the way through to completion.
Bob’s intimate knowledge of the soughtafter coastal suburbs of Churchlands, Floreat,Wembley Downs and City Beach, saw thesuccess of the estimated $18 million Church-lands Green Element Apartments project sell13 out of the 15 luxury stage one propertiesoff the plan within a record three months.
With construction on Stage 2 Essence
Apartments about to begin, Mr Johnston saidhe was beginning to notice a trend amongbuyers. “Most of our clients who purchasedproperties in the Element project alreadylived in the area and wanted to stay in thearea, no longer wanting the responsibilities ofmanaging a home on a quarter acre block.”
When buying off the plan, Bob says, “thetrick is to get in early which enables thebuyer to create good inbuilt capital growth,and usually means that by the time the proj-ect is completed, the property price hasalready been adjusted upwards and the buyeris entitled to all those financial benefits”.
Marketing on Stages 3 and 4, comprising21 quality apartments, is expected to startnext month. Prices for the Essence Apart-ments start at $1,175,000.

Boost for CBD propertyTHE new $440 million Perth waterfrontdevelopment and Northbridge Link willhave a positive effect on the CBD’s prop-erty market.
According to Limnios Property GroupCEO James Limnios, whose family hasbeen selling real estate in the inner cityareas of Perth for 40 years, inner city liv-ing in Perth lagged behind other majorcapital cities, but developments such asthese were sure to boost interest overthe next decade.
“We have a tiny inner city populationcompared to other major capitals suchas Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane,” hesaid.
“The lack of inner city living in Perth isunderlined by the recent National Hous-ing Supply Council, showing that thereare some 57 workers for every residentin the Perth CBD.
“Even in smaller capital cites such asDarwin, the ratio of workers to residentsis around 11 to 1.
“This is a target that Perth should aimfor and it would put us in line with othermajor capital cities such as Sydney andMelbourne.”
Mr Limnios said these developmentswould attract thousands of new resi-dents back into the inner city, and alreadyLimnios were recording a strong rise ininquiries for properties in the area. ■

TOP PROPERTY TIPS FOR TODAY5
THIS weekTristanKirkham fromNew HomeBuilding Bro-kers shares histop tips forchoosing theright builder, sothe journey is an enjoyable one.1) Always choose a builder whoowns the business and works in it.
It is very dangerous ground tochoose a builder who does not.
Many times in my experienceclients end up very disappointedwith builders hiding behind thebuilding codes of Australia.2) Always monitor and/or ask foran up-to-date copy of thecompany’s job book.
You can see how many jobs theyhave on the go, and also how longthey are taking to build.
This is not always available fromsome builders. However Perth’sbest always have one on hand.3) Client references: this is a clas-sic – people who have just had aslab put down, and clients at hand-over are great to talk to.
Volume builders turn staff overso often it has a massive effect onquality control, so doing yourhomework is vital.4) Always get some feedback fromreview forums and also monitorcourt hearings.You can also moni-tor various commissions and dis-pute tribunals.
Talk to friends and work col-leagues about experiences, and tryto ask the builder about any con-cerns you have upfront.5)Ask what the gross margin beingcharged is. This is so important,particularly if you walk into a reallyflash office (someone has to payfor it).
Volume builders from our experi-ence vary from 30 per cent up to anincredible 45 per cent on a project.Smaller builders can be a lot less.
Understanding each builder andhow they operate is so importantin choosing the right builder.Don’t always go for the cheapesteither; most of my clients havecome to us as a result of signing upfor something that had misleadinginformation – you get what youpay for, as they say.

The kitchen, appointed with stonebenchtops and stainless-steel appli-ances, is central and faces the water,overlooking the lounge and diningareas.
To the right, another living area hasaccess to a lawn area and pizza oven atthe front of the property, as well as anambient outdoor kitchen loggia andalfresco dining area on the river side.
It features glass sliding doors on bothsides, allowing the areas to be connect-ed and the home to become an enter-tainer’s dream.
A fabulous aqua-coloured lap pool
and spacious terrace runs along thesouthern border of the home, withpanoramic views and direct access tothe water’s edge.
On the second level, a gallery walk-way connects the three minor bed-rooms, which are north-facing, to theultimate master suite and retreat.
A study and sitting area enjoy breath-taking views before the wall curvesaround to reveal the master bedroom,ensuite and dressing room.

The magnificent MeridianQUALITY over quantity is the ethos whenit comes to the one-off home designs creat-ed by RiverStone.
Its display homes are not done to cookie-cutter formula, but are more an inspirationto see just what could be possible whenfinalising your own luxury plans where archi-tects, interior designers and landscape artistscombine to turn that dream home into areality.

Bi-fold doors open to the enclosed out-door dining area which is sheltered from theelements by a second set of bi-folds.
The orientation of the home called for ahuge expanse of windows to invite naturallight into the potentially otherwise darkenedhalls.
A microwave, dishwasher, oven, range-
hood and gas burners are all standard appli-ances while the scullery is a welcome inclu-sion.
The basement level includes a comfort-able home theatre room, guest bedroom,cellar, storage space and view of the mosaicwater feature with coral design that illumi-nates at night.
