QMM STATE-WIDE COMMENTARY

STEADY GROWTH CONTINUES IN SEQ The Brisbane local government area (LGA) median house price has pushed to a new high of $615,000 as consistent steady growth continues.

While predictions have been prolific that the slowing conditions in Sydney would flow through to Brisbane, the Queensland capital city has clearly defied predictions, helped by southern investors eyeing off bargains in the sunshine state.

According to data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics, investor activity increased 1.4 per cent in Queensland over the month of September.

Regional centres once reliant on the mining industry are still stabilising, with the bottom of the market likely having now been met in most areas.

Ongoing employment issues are the largest hindrance on these regions entering a recovery phase.

In light of this, a number of local councils are implementing initiatives that will diversify their region’s economy in an effort to create new industries and new jobs.

REIQ RESEARCH EXPLANATORY NOTESSALES MARKET DATA

All figures for the most recent quarterly and yearly periods are preliminary only and subject to further revision as additional sales records become available (see Research Methodology online at reiq.com).

As of the June quarter 2013, all sales data includes "Recent Sales" as advised by real estate agents as well as official records as advised by DNRM. As such comparisons with figures published prior to the June quarter 2013 should be done with caution.

A median sale price is derived by arranging a set of sale prices from lowest to highest and then selecting the middle value within this set (ie the 50th percentile, where half of recorded sales were less and half were higher than the median). Only suburbs and regions to record sufficient sales numbers

at the time of reporting are published.

N/ADue to insufficient sales numbers (as at the time of data extraction) no median sale price has been calculated

ON THE MARKET INDICATORS

At the time of publication, latest information available was for the 12 months ending the month prior to the current period.

"Days on Market" is calculated as the average number of days it has taken to sell those properties sold by private treaty sale during the 12 month period. The calculation excludes auction listings and listings where an asking price is not advertised. The days on market calculation uses the contract date on the property compared with the first advertised date.

"Vendor Discount" is the average difference between the contract price on a property and the first advertised price. The figure is expressed as a percentage and is an average of all private treaty sales which sold for less than their initial asking price during the last 12 months. Auction listings, listings without an advertised asking price and properties sold at or above list price are excluded from the calculation.

"Total Listings" is the total unique number of properties that have been advertised for sale and captured by RP Data over the 12 month period. To be included in the count, the listings have to be matched to an actual address.

"% Stock on Market" is the percentage of dwellings within the suburb or local government area that have been listed for sale over the past year.

The tourism centres showed significant improvement to house sales markets

STATE-WIDE SUMMARY CONTINUED

HOUSE MARKET

Over the September quarter, the Brisbane house market led the way, with preliminary house sales reaching levels not seen in more than five years. New listings helped the market maintain equilibrium, fostering sustainable property price growth.

Sales activity was also up across the southeast and the tourism centres, with Ipswich the stand-out performer. Ipswich also recorded the highest quarterly increase for the Greater Brisbane region with the median house price lifting 1.6 per cent to $320,000.

The tourism centres also continued to improve, with the Gold Coast's median house price recording the highest quarterly increase of all the major centres.

Cairns performed well over the quarter, recording a new median house price of $400,000, up 2.6 per cent. With house sales activity and listings up, the state’s far north tourism destination moved into stronger market conditions.

After easing sales activity over the first half of 2015, Toowoomba house sales activity bounced back, up 13 per cent over the quarter. Following a strong 2014, local agents say Toowoomba is likely to stick to the established long-term trend of conservative yet consistent property price growth.

On the Fraser Coast, sales market conditions remained steady with little change.

Average days on market and average vendor discounting remained relatively unchanged, while listings increased slightly heading into spring.

In other regional centres, market conditions remained weak, although, September quarter data shows Gladstone may be turning a corner.

The major east coast cities of Rockhampton and Townsville, along with Bundaberg also recorded relatively stable house sales activity over the quarter, however improvements in days on market and vendor discounting have yet to be seen.

"Due to low volume of sales, % changes should be used with caution.N/A - not available due to insufficient sales numbersb The median sale price for vacant land in the Redland City LGA is significantly impacted by shifts in the number of property sales on the bay islands versus the number on the mainland in high quality subdivisions.

Mackay’s house market was patchy, with some market indicators in decline despite sales numbers increasing nine per cent over the quarter. The region’s median house price softened 2.8 per cent to $345,000 over the September quarter.

UNIT MARKET

Broadly speaking, the unit and townhouse markets across the state followed the sales trends set by the housing markets.

Greater Brisbane and the tourism centres were the standout performers with the Gold Coast recording the highest lift in preliminary sales activity.

Median sale prices in Greater Brisbane were up across all council areas, while the tourism centres recorded relatively steady results on the back of strong sales at the affordable end of the market.

Data reveals that investor interest is picking up with Gold Coast agents saying interstate investors are beginning to turn their attention to the sunshine state.

Toowoomba’s unit and townhouse market rebounded over the quarter, with sales up 23 per cent. News of major infrastructure projects proceeding is keeping the momentum in the market.

In other regional centres, sales turnover in the unit market eased. Investor interest outside the southeast corner is extremely limited and there is little or no new development activity on the cards, softening local economies.

RENTAL MARKET

Vacancy levels in the southeast corner are healthy to tight, with many suburbs either tightening slightly over the quarter or remaining in the healthy range.

However, as the sales market improves local agents anticipate that the rental market will ease over the coming quarters. Ongoing low interest rates mean that for many renters - especially those in the inner city - the cost of living is actually cheaper with a mortgage than in a rental property. This will impact on rental vacancy rates as renters move into home ownership.

In regional areas vacancy rates remained relatively unchanged with weak rental market conditions prevailing.

Gladstone’s vacancy rate was the exception as it returned to above seven per cent with more ex-mining company owned properties coming into the private rental pool.

BRISBANE MARKET UPDATES

BRISBANE CITYIn line with historical September quarters, Brisbane’s house market recorded a healthy rise in residential sales activity for the 2015 September quarter.

While predictions have been prolific that the slowing conditions in Sydney would flow through to other major capital cities, Brisbane has clearly defied expectations.

On the market indicators of average days on market and average vendor discounting have remained relatively unchanged since the end of June, proving that the Brisbane property market is growing at a healthy and sustainable level.

Listing numbers continue to increase with more vendors recognising the good selling conditions. This trend in listings is encouraging and will ensure there is enough supply to meet the growing demand. With more listings coming onto the market to meet the growth in buyer numbers, conditions are ripe for property prices to grow at a steady rate.

HOUSE MARKET

Over the September quarter, Brisbane preliminary house sales were up five per cent on the June quarter, taking the city’s sales turnover to a level not seen in more than five years.

With growing confidence and activity across all price points, the overall median was up marginally, by 0.8 per cent, to $615,000 – setting yet another record median sale price.

Demand for houses in the $500 000-plus bracket grew significantly, with 129 more sales this quarter compared with the previous quarter.

The growth in listings across all price points is meeting growing buyer demand with average days on market and average vendor discounting rates at levels consistent since the start of the year.

Standout suburbs over the quarter were typically middle to outer-ring suburbs with Eight Mile Plains, Mount Gravatt East and Manly West recording some of the strongest increases in preliminary sales numbers.

The prestige market performed well this quarter. Two new suburbs entered the million-dollar median price group, with Grange and Robertson joining blue-chip suburbs such as Bulimba, Chelmer, Hamilton, New Farm, Teneriffe and St Lucia.

UNIT MARKET

Brisbane’s unit and townhouse market also performed strongly with preliminary unit and townhouse sales up 13 per cent compared with the June quarter.

Increased activity was not confined to any one area with the top increases in activity occurring in inner, middle and outer ring suburbs.

Activity also increased across all price points with the $350,000-plus price point recording the largest increase.

Sales in the prestige unit market lifted, with 14 more sales in the million-dollar-plus category compared with the June quarter.

Brisbane's median unit sale price was up 1.2 per cent to $430,000 this quarter.

The median has hovered around this level since the September quarter last year, indicating that real price growth is yet to occur in this section of Brisbane’s residential market.

With new apartments coming onto the market, listing numbers were up 13 per cent on the previous year. As a result, average days on market increased to 69 days while average vendor discounting remained relatively stable, up just 0.1 percentage points to 4.8 per cent over the year to August.

RENTAL MARKET

Brisbane City vacancy rates increased marginally by 0.1 percentage points to 2.8 per cent, largely due to easing conditions for the city’s inner ring.

Increased supply levels are starting to impact on the inner city, with the vacancy rate easing to 3.3 per cent at the end of September.

Local agents reported that asking rents were easing and rental incentives were being used to help secure tenants. Easing tenant demand was also reported.

However, even though demand is easing, generally speaking median rents have not yet softened, with the exception of the inner-north where rents dropped slightly by $10 over the quarter.

In the middle to outer ring local agents reported that despite low vacancy levels, listings were taking longer to rent. Increased investor activity was also adding to current supply levels.

Listing numbers continue to increase with more vendors recognising the good selling conditions.

The Brisbane Statistical Division, also known as Greater Brisbane, improved considerably with preliminary sales activity and listings up significantly.

Average days on market and average vendor discounting have continued to improve, despite increased supply coming onto the market which would normally soften those statistics. Data reveals that the outer suburbs are in demand from owner occupiers and investors.

The strengthening local economy and positive population growth are key drivers for continued property demand.

Rental markets throughout Greater Brisbane are tight and demand from tenants is spread throughout the inner, middle and outer suburbs as many move further out seeking more affordable options. Investors are offloading properties and in many cases selling to owner occupiers.

HOUSE MARKET

For the September quarter, the Brisbane Statistical Division (SD) recorded little change in its median house price, up 0.2 per cent. However, sales activity was up five per cent compared with the previous quarter.

Moreton Bay has taken the lead as the strongest performing house market in Greater Brisbane with the shortest days on market and lowest average vendor discounting.

Logan City has recorded the largest increase in preliminary sales activity over the year to September, up 17 per cent.

Logan has also overtaken Redland City in average vendor discounting.

Ipswich may be trailing the other regions in terms of time on market and vendor discounting, but it was the standout performer for sales activity.

According to local agents, this comes as no surprise given the relative affordability of the region and the strong rental yields being achieved.

Owner occupiers are starting to see good value for money in suburbs outside of metropolitan Brisbane. Over the year to September, the suburbs of Yamanto (Ipswich), Deception Bay (Moreton Bay), Rochedale South (Logan) and Mango Hill (Moreton Bay) recorded the highest increase in preliminary sales compared to the previous year including suburbs within metropolitan Brisbane.

Median prices across the Greater Brisbane council areas are likely to continue to attract buyer interest given their relative affordability and accessibility to major business and retail districts.

UNIT MARKET

Over the September quarter, Brisbane Statistical Division median sale price increased 1.9 per cent off the back of a seven per cent increase in preliminary sales numbers.

While median sale price growth was consistent across the council areas, sales activity was mixed.

Ipswich once again recorded the strongest increase in sales activity while buyer activity in Logan, Moreton Bay and Redland City eased or stabilised.

Interest in the Ipswich unit and townhouse market is strong with average days on market and average vendor discounting remaining relatively unchanged, despite an increase of 12 per cent in listings over the year to August.

RENTAL MARKET

Vacancy rates in the outer suburbs of Greater Brisbane were mixed, with Ipswich City tightening to 1.3 per cent, a new lowest record for the region.

Local agents say rental stock is low as a result of continued tenant demand and many tenants are staying put partly because their options are so limited. The sale of investment properties to owner-occupiers is contributing to the short supply rental stock.

Logan City vacancy rate dropped, while Moreton Bay has remained below two per cent despite a slight lift this quarter.

The Pine Rivers region in the Moreton Bay council area remains one of the tightest rental markets with a vacancy rate of 1.3 per cent.

Local agents in the Redland City Council area say new residential developments are adding to supply and are competitively priced, which means established rentals are experiencing tougher conditions. Over the three months to September, the region’s vacancy rate was up 0.2 percentage points to 2.5 per cent.

JUN 15 SEP 15

This quarter the Gold Coast has continued to improve with solid growth in sales activity across all residential markets.

Key to the Gold Coast’s strengthening property market has been growing employment opportunities, and in this regard the Gold Coast is leading the charge in Queensland.

Both infrastructure and residential developments have boosted jobs in the construction industry which is resulting in an influx of residents to the region. The strengthening tourism industry is also paving the way for further job opportunities.

As Sydney and Melbourne potentially reach the peaks of their respective markets it’s anticipated that more buyers will be looking to the southeast corner for purchasing opportunities.

The Brisbane to Gold Coast corridor continues to grow and is creating pressure for infrastructure to keep pace, including roads, water and sewerage lines. Traffic congestion is a significant issue, with many commuters travelling daily between Brisbane and the Gold Coast.

Upgrades to this arterial road network remain a priority, with a $74.7 million interchange upgrade at Coomera just one example of the local council’s efforts to improve safety and traffic flow.

HOUSE MARKET

The Gold Coast house market performed strongly this quarter, with preliminary house sales numbers up six per cent over the quarter and 14 per cent over the year to September 2015.

Similar to other strengthening house markets in Queensland, this increased activity isn’t translating to significant price growth. However, the Gold Coast recorded the largest change in its median house price for both the quarter and the year ending September, up 3.8 and seven per cent respectively.

Local agents reported that buyers were still somewhat price sensitive and were not rushing to purchase.

With the influx of new residents to the region, local agents say affordably priced properties are in highest demand. Outer suburbs in particular, such as Upper Coomera and Pacific Pines remain in strong demand, recording the largest increase in house sales over the year to September for the Gold Coast region.

The prestige market is also performing strongly with well-located properties in highest demand.

Average days on market have remained steady at 72 days, however average vendor discounting continues to trend downwards and at 5.6 per cent, is now almost half the peak of around 10 per cent recorded in mid-2012.

UNIT MARKET

The unit and townhouse market claims the lion's share of the Gold Coast residential sales market with sales up 27 per cent over the quarter.

According to local agents, investors as well as owner occupiers are looking to the apartment market more – driven by the accessibility to the inner city, infrastructure and beaches.

Affordable stock is in highest demand and despite strong sales in the prestige end of the market, units in the sub-$350,000 price point recorded the largest increase in sales activity for the quarter.

As a result, the median unit sale price was down slightly by 1.4 per cent to $345,000.

RENTAL MARKET

In the REIQ residential rental survey for September, Gold Coast agents reported strong tenant demand and low supply levels.

As a result the vacancy rate tightened to 1.7 per cent. The region has remained below 2.5 per cent (considered the lower end of the healthy range) for two years.

Despite this consistently limited vacancy rate, median rental prices have remained in check. According to the RTA’s September quarter figures, median weekly rents remained relatively unchanged.

JUN 15 SEP 15

After two quarters of easing buyer activity, the Toowoomba market bounced back in the September quarter.

The outlook for the region remains very positive with a number of major projects either under way or planned.

The second range crossing project has been greatly anticipated throughout the region and the project commenced construction on 7 December with the sod officially turned. Project developer Nexus is limited to hiring people from within a 70km radius and this will boost employment and market confidence.

A multimillion-dollar abattoir is also in the planning stage, while the QIC redevelopment in the city centre will significantly increase the retail net lettable area.

The crane index visible across the city skyline is a clear indicator of strong construction levels and this is creating optimism for the market.

Progress from the Federal Government on the inland rail from Brisbane to Melbourne that will go via Toowoomba is another windfall for the region.

With all this in mind, Toowoomba is well positioned for continued, stable growth both economically and in the residential property market.

The significant property price growth of 2014 is not likely to be repeated however there is confidence from all market observers that consistent, stable growth will be the trademark of the 2016 market.

HOUSE MARKET

Toowoomba’s house market is still very much in healthy territory, however, sales volume has tapered off compared with the previous year.

Preliminary house sales during the September quarter lifted 13 per cent compared with the June quarter. However, due to a very quiet first half of this year total sales for the year to September was down 12 per cent.

Property prices held steady, with the region’s median house price up marginally over the quarter to $353,000.

The prestige market is also holding ground with two homes in East Toowoomba reportedly selling off-market in excess of $1 million.

Despite houses spending a little longer on the market, Toowoomba continues to record the shortest average days on market for all major regional centres outside Brisbane.

Average vendor discounting has increased in line with the increased time on market. Over-optimistic vendors who price their property a little too high for the market are contributing to this statistic.

UNIT MARKET

Similar to the house market, Toowoomba’s unit and townhouse market sales activity bounced back, up 23 per cent over the September quarter compared with the June quarter.

Townhouses continue to sell reasonably well, pushing the median sale price up 10.7 per cent over the quarter.

Average time on market and average vendor discounting have remained relatively consistent with that seen a year ago, at 77 days and 4.2 per cent respectively. Listing numbers meanwhile were marginally down, by two per cent.

RENTAL MARKET

At the end of September Toowoomba’s vacancy rate had improved slightly, down 0.5 percentage points to 2.7 per cent since the end of June.

New townhouse developments popular with investors have largely been responsible for the additional rental stock and weekly rents have eased since the end of June.

According to local agents, however, the excess stock has dwindled while tenant enquiry levels have already begun to pick up, particularly for affordably priced rentals.

SUNSHINE COASTThe Sunshine Coast market conditions are flourishing at the moment, with sales activity growing steadily across most parts of the region for the quarter.

The strength of buyer activity varies according to the position, property type and price bracket, however confidence in the market overall remains buoyant.

The growth in sales activity and residential property prices is at sustainable levels, with buyer demand at healthy levels. Local agents also feel that there is a good balance between levels of supply and demand.

Even with the stronger market conditions local agents report that vendors do still need to correctly market their properties in order to create strong buyer interest and achieve a good sales result.

Investor numbers aren’t growing significantly, which is surprising considering the tight rental market and healthy rental returns on offer. It’s likely the tightening of banking lending criteria may have something to do with the low level of investor activity.

The Sunshine Coast population is growing, attracting new residents from interstate and overseas and local agents believe the outlook for the region is very positive.

The region is going from strength to strength with a multitude of developments, both infrastructure and property, providing a boost to local employment.

HOUSE MARKET

Over the September quarter the Sunshine Coast statistical division (SD) continued on its trajectory of growth with sales activity up five per cent. This increase was largely seen in the Sunshine Coast council area while Noosa recorded a slight fall.

Property price growth has been consistent, with the prestige end also achieving positive results. Over the September quarter, the highest increase in buyer activity was recorded in the $500,000-plus price point.

The median house price however remained relatively stable over the quarter with a lift in sales in the sub-$350,000 price point also recorded.

Well-presented and well-priced properties are selling quickly. However, vendors who are choosing to test the market and not present their property to its potential are seeing their property spend longer days on market.

UNIT MARKET

The unit market performed strongly with solid interest reported in lower-level units and townhouse complexes. Those with low body corporate fees are also said to be of a main priority for many buyers in this segment of the market.

Noosa preliminary sales increase 23 per cent while the Sunshine Coast (SD) preliminary sales numbers increased just two per cent.

Average days on market and average vendor discounting rates remained relatively unchanged over the year. With increased listings, these figures indicated that buyer demand in the unit market remained healthy.

RENTAL MARKET

At the end of September, the REIQ residential rental survey found rental conditions on the Sunshine Coast were very tight. The Sunshine Coast SD vacancy rate tightened further to 1.3 per cent with the Noosa council area and Caloundra coastal area recording the tightest vacancy in the state with 0.9 per cent.

According to local agents, it is common for new residents to rent before they buy when they first move to the region, which provides the rental market with a steady influx of new tenants.

Investors are not present in the market in significant numbers and this hampers the supply of rental stock to the market.

Local agents also reported a pick-up in tenant enquiry for executive and prestige level rentals, a sector that hadn’t been strong before now.

Although vacancy levels have been below two per cent for some time now, median rents have not yet significantly increased. As a result, gross rental yields have also remained steady at 4.4 and 4.9 per cent for houses and units respectively over the quarter.

FRASER COASTOn the Fraser Coast sales turnover was relatively stable over the quarter; however compared to a year ago, house and unit preliminary sales numbers were up signalling improving market conditions might be around the corner.

Local agents say the Fraser Coast residential property market is the most stable they’ve seen in some time. Confidence is up across the board with agents, buyers and vendors recognising the market's many opportunities.

As a result, listing numbers were up for the house and unit markets over the year to August. Sellers were more pragmatic this quarter and prepared to accept where property prices were, with many buyers taking advantage.

Local agents reported that families upgrading their homes were the most active – taking the place of investors. With property prices still down on five years ago, many were taking the opportunity to upgrade to a larger home.

On the economic front, the manufacturing industry on the Fraser Coast may get a boost with the Federal Government’s $50 billion Navy-fleet upgrade benefiting Maryborough businesses. With long-term contracts likely, this would be a significant windfall creating local employment opportunities for the region.

HOUSE MARKET

The steady recovery in sales activity being seen in the house market is much welcomed by local agents who say the Fraser Coast has always seen cycles of boom and bust.

Average days on market are relatively unchanged compared to a year ago, with the region consistently around 110 days for six consecutive quarters.

Average vendor discounting has also remained relatively unchanged at around 7.5 to eight per cent.

This stability is welcome after a number of years of weak market conditions.

The house market, however, still has some way to go to complete its recovery from the GFC. The region’s median house price for the year ending September was down 3.2 per cent compared to five years ago.

Local agents say those who bought in the years leading up to the GFC are struggling to sell for higher than what they originally paid.

UNIT MARKET

Fraser Coast’s unit and townhouse market has also shown small signs of recovery with sales activity increasing 20 per cent over the past 12 months.

While no new stock has come onto the market, listing numbers are up with more vendors making the decision to offload their investment properties. And given current prices, many are being snapped up by buyers on the lookout for a bargain.

Return on investment is slowly coming back to the Fraser Coast unit market and this is encouraging more investors back into the market.

RENTAL MARKET

On the Fraser Coast, vacancy rates have returned to healthier levels, down 0.4 percentage points over the three months to September.

This was largely off the back of an improvement in Maryborough’s rental market. Hervey Bay vacancy rate eased to 3.3 per cent but remained in healthy territory.

Median weekly rents remained relatively steady except for three bedroom townhouses which were up $25 to $375 compared to the September quarter last year.

Meanwhile gross rental yields for both houses and units sit at or above five per cent.

The Bundaberg residential market steadied over the September quarter. Sales activity and other market indicators have remained relatively unchanged since the end of June.

Overall confidence remains subdued, however upcoming developments will likely deliver a boost to optimism and market confidence.

The Bundaberg Regional Council said there were 12 major projects in the pipeline, including commercial and residential developments, the Council’s $90 million wastewater treatment plant and a new proposed plasterboard manufacturing plant set to provide 500 local jobs.

Other significant developments in the area include infrastructure projects at the Port of Bundaberg and planned expansion of the Bundaberg airport.

The gas pipeline project for the Port of Bundaberg is under way and it is expected to significantly improve energy operating costs for the industrial sector. In October the State Government announced it would increase funding for the project by $8.8 million to a total $19.8 million. The Port may also become a State Development Area given the scale of the project and its economic significance for the region.

Bundaberg Regional Council is planning to expand the Bundaberg Airport to accommodate an industrial and commercial subdivision as part of the airport’s aviation and aerospace precinct. A growing industry for the region, aviation is helping to diversify the region’s economy.

Once these projects come online and construction is visible, it will serve as evidence that the region is moving forward and optimism is expected to grow.

Local agents are hopeful 2016 will be very promising as employment opportunities encourage more people to move to the area.

HOUSE MARKET

Bundaberg’s house sales market activity was consistent with the previous quarter. The market is tracking along a very stable trajectory, with quarterly sales volumes remaining relatively consistent since mid-2013.

The median sale price has similarly remained consistent, with no change over the past year.

Even without a boost in sales volumes, local agents reported confidence in the region was gathering momentum. House listings increased six per cent over the year to August indicating vendor confidence was growing.

With increased supply, average days on market increased slightly to 107 days. Average vendor discounting was likewise up compared to a year ago, however since the start of the year has levelled off at 8.1 per cent.

UNIT MARKET

Bundaberg’s unit and townhouse market remains somewhat patchy with sales activity easing over the September quarter. With this drop in activity occurring among the affordable stock, the median sale price for the quarter was up 27.8 per cent compared to the previous quarter.

Unit listings over the year were up marginally, and the region continued to record the longest days on market for all major regions at 140 days.

The region’s average vendor discounting rate also increased marginally over the year to 8.2 per cent.

RENTAL MARKET

Rental market conditions in Bundaberg look to be stabilising with the region’s vacancy rate remaining unchanged at 4.6 per cent at the end of September.

Although tenant demand remains weak, local agents say the overall vacancy has been kept in check as a result of some investor-owned properties being sold to owner-occupiers.

Despite the soft rental market conditions, median weekly rents for the quarter have remained steady compared to the corresponding quarter last year. Three-bedroom townhouses were the only rental type to record a drop over the year.

As a result of steady rental prices, gross yields have remained at healthy levels. Bundaberg’s gross rental yield for houses remained at 5.5 per cent for the quarter – the highest for the state along with Rockhampton.

JUN 15 SEP 15

The Gladstone market has continued to record steadying market conditions over the September quarter with indicators such as time on market trending down. Local agents have said new listings are limited and current listings are slowly being absorbed.

Buyer enquiries are beginning to pick up with many people realising that now is a good time in the cycle to consider a purchase.

Properties are reportedly priced at 2005 levels and many buyers are recognising great value for money in Gladstone’s residential market. This is creating interest among investors and in particular the local investors who know the region’s property market well.

The Port of Gladstone continues to grow and recently passed the milestone of 100 million tonnes exported.

The Port’s growth trajectory is forecast to lift and with little other economic good news to the region this has been welcomed.

HOUSE MARKET

While some indicators suggest Gladstone’s house market has softened, with preliminary sales numbers down five per cent over the quarter, others suggest the market has stabilised, signalling a steadying residential market.

Vendors got more realistic with their initial list price which means vendor discounting improved compared with a year ago. Meanwhile, properties that were priced well moved quickly.

House listings over the year to August were down seven per cent compared to the previous year. According to local agents, the majority of would-be vendors were in no hurry to sell and were choosing to ride out the bottom of the cycle.

UNIT MARKET

Sales turnover remains at historical lows for Gladstone’s unit and townhouse market, with just 10 preliminary sales reported.

Similar to the house market, unit listing numbers have eased further, down three per cent compared to a year ago.

Average vendor discounting rates have pushed out further to 11.8 per cent, however average days on market have improved slightly to 121 days – down from 129 a year ago.

With little to no new unit sales, the overall median has dropped back considerably with established, more affordable units making up the majority of sales. Resales of those originally bought new, however, also contributed to the softening in the median sale price for the unit and townhouse market.

RENTAL MARKET

Rents softened, however, with an increase in rental supply occurring over the last few months, vacancy levels have pushed out once more to 7.1% - the second highest level recorded since 2008.

Local agents reported that rents, as well as selling prices, continued to ease. It is anticipated that Gladstone has some way to go before recovery is in full view on the horizon.

According to figures from the RTA, median weekly rents for the September quarter were down more than $20 for two bedroom units and three bedroom townhouses compared to the September quarter last year.

While this hasn’t been good news for investors, the easing of rents has contributed to improved rental affordability for local residents, which has stopped the vacancy rate from worsening further.

The Rockhampton residential sales market over the September quarter stabilised with sales activity levelling out and other market indicators also settling.

The economic conditions in Rockhampton are challenging with employment opportunities or lack thereof having a significant impact on overall confidence. Youth unemployment is an area of concern with few job prospects available to Rockhampton’s younger residents.

Despite this, the Rockhampton residential market looks to be holding ground with overall sales turnover remaining at a consistent level since the December quarter last year.

Local agents however say vendors are becoming more aware of the current selling conditions and it’s likely the region will see average vendor discounting rates increase over the balance of the year.

On the plus side, Rockhampton’s rental market looks to be steadying with an improvement in the region’s vacancy rate over the three months to September.

HOUSE MARKET

Preliminary house sales numbers over the quarter were down marginally – by five per cent for the quarter – however, agents say the market is showing signs of stability.

Buyer activity is most prominent at the affordable end of the market with first home buyers taking the opportunity to buy with minimal to no competition from investors.

As a result of this shift in activity, the quarterly median house price was down 7.4 per cent compared to the June quarter.

REIQ price point data also confirms this change with sales in the sub-$350,000 and sub-$500,000 price point recording an increase over the quarter. Meanwhile sales activity in the prestige end has halved since the end of June.

House listing numbers have increased over the year and local agents say a number of new investment owned properties have been put on the market after not being able to be tenanted.

UNIT MARKET

Making up a small proportion of Rockhampton’s residential real estate market, units and townhouse sales were up marginally however remain subdued with minimal investor activity.

Over the year to September the median unit sale price eased 2.4 per cent while the new unit developments in Rockhampton have contributed to the strong increase in its annual median sale compared to five years ago.

Listing numbers were up over the year to August, resulting in longer days on market and increase in the region’s average vendor discounting rate.

RENTAL MARKET

At the end of September Rockhampton’s vacancy rate dropped back to the mid-four per cent mark after a spike at the end of June.

A number of properties in Parkhurst and Gracemere are reportedly being pulled from the rental market and listed for sale as investors’ 12 month rental guarantee periods end. Agents say this is likely a contributing factor to the improving vacancy levels.

JUN 15 SEP 15

The unpredictable conditions of the Mackay market continued for a third consecutive quarter, creating a challenging environment for owner-occupiers and investors.

Sales turnover has fluctuated between 170 and 200 preliminary house sales per quarter since mid-2014 with other market indicators yet to level off.

Similar to other regions impacted by the mining downturn, property prices have continued to ease with prices returning to 2005 levels.

With softer property prices in play, local owner-occupiers have replaced a significant portion of investors in the market. First home buyers are enjoying the good buying opportunities now available to them.

Neighbouring Isaac Regional Council is similarly struggling to find solid ground and property prices there are also at 2005 levels. However, due to high-yielding properties during the mining boom the region’s median house price has fallen from a much higher peak of $682,000 recorded in the first quarter of 2012 back to the pre-boom median of around $200,000.

Both Mackay and Isaac’s rental markets look to be stabilising with both regions recording steady vacancy rates over the three months to September.

The outlook for the region however is looking promising. The Mackay Airport may be about to commence direct flights to New Zealand. The runway is capable of accommodating such flights, however funding for immigration and customs is required.

The Mackay Regional Council is focused on reinventing the town as a major industrial hub, connected to developments in the Galilee Basin that will directly benefit the region. Manufacturing opportunities and building contracts associated with the railway line from the Basin to the port of Abbot Point are also likely to benefit Mackay.

Local agents are very positive about the next few years and expect the real estate market to turn around in late 2016, early 2017.

HOUSE MARKET

Mackay’s house market stabilised this quarter with preliminary sales numbers increasing by nine per cent.

Average days on market have edged out further to 110 days while average vendor discounting increased 2.4 percentage points to 8.9 per cent over the year to August.

Listing numbers were down four per cent compared to the previous year indicating only vendors who needed to sell were putting their property on the market.

With first home buyers more active, sales activity lifted in the sub-$350,000 price point, which contributed to the 2.8 per cent fall in Mackay’s median house price for the quarter.

UNIT MARKET

Over the September quarter Mackay’s unit and townhouse sales increased at the affordable end of the market.

Units in the sub-$350,000 price points held steady while sales above $350,000 were down. Overall preliminary sales for the region were down a third on the previous quarter.

The June quarter also saw a spike in its median unit sale price – up 12 per cent. With low sales turnover in this segment of the market, changes in the quarterly median sale price are more susceptible to shifts in different qualities of properties sold.

With no new unit developments coming onto the market, the median has come back down to be more reflective of the established unit and townhouse market.

RENTAL MARKET

Mackay’s rental market, surveyed at the end of September, found the region still to be in oversupply; however the overall vacancy rate remained unchanged at 9.1 per cent.

After peaking at 9.8 per cent at the end of last year, this result is an encouraging sign that the region’s rental market is stabilising and confirms the REIQ position that the bottom has been passed.

New residents continue relocate to the region, however some are still leaving in search of work. Local agents expect the vacancy rate to remain where it is for the balance of the year.

Compared to the September quarter last year, the median rent for three bedroom houses eased further, down $50 to $295 per week.

Local agents...expect the Mackay real estate market to start to turn around in late 2016 to early 2017

JUN 15 SEP 15

Over the September quarter, the Townsville residential property market conditions changed little.

Local agents said confidence was low with job losses still hampering the local economy. Those with job stability however took advantage of the current climate of affordable properties and low interest rates to upgrade to a larger home.

Turnover of listings took longer, however, with more affordably priced homes on the market sales for the rest of the year should absorb some of the excess.

Vendors who brought good quality homes to the market and were prepared to meet price expectations were achieving a swift result.

While the mining downturn continues to impact on local jobs the Queensland Government is making headway on other initiatives to help reinvigorate the local economy.

In late October, the Townsville City Waterfront Priority Development Area scheme was officially adopted by the State Government. The development of the city’s waterfront precinct is set to attract investment into the city and give a much-needed boost to employment prospects.

In conjunction with the PDA, the State Government has committed $100 million to the development of the Townsville Stadium.

Renewable energy is also set to become a key industry for the region, with the Queensland Government approving what will soon be one of Australia’s largest solar farms at Clare in the Burdekin Shire. Located just an hour and a half south of Townsville this will be yet another economic push for the region.

HOUSE MARKET

House sales activity over the September quarter reveals that Townsville has very much reached a period of stability, a good indicator that is sure to strengthen as Townsville heads into its busiest sales period of the year.

Preliminary sales numbers for the quarter were down marginally by one per cent while there was a small increase in listing numbers over the year (up four per cent). Agents report demand is weaker than typical levels, with fewer buyer enquiries than usual.

As a result average vendor discounting has increased to 8.9 per cent. Time on market however has levelled off at 94 days and despite the slowdown in the sales market it has hovered around 90 days for two years now, indicating a very stable market that should inspire buyer confidence in the new year.

UNIT MARKET

In line with the house sales market, unit and townhouse sales in Townsville were also steady for the quarter.

There was, however, a shift in activity across the various price points. Activity in the sub-$250,000 price point lifted while sales in the $500,000-plus price point dropped.

As a result, the quarterly median sale price slipped 19.5 per cent, from June quarter to September quarter.

However, over the year to September, the annual median sale price was up 4.5 per cent, compared with the previous year. There was a small drop of just nine per cent in sales activity.

This result has local agents optimistic about the unit and townhouse market heading into Townsville’s peak selling period.

The average days on market statistic has improved on a year ago, down seven days to 119 days, most likely due to greater activity in the sub-$250,000 price point.

Average vendor discounting also improved slightly, by 0.3 percentage points, to 9.1 per cent.

RENTAL MARKET

At the end of September Townsville’s vacancy rate increased slightly, by just 0.3 percentage points, to 5.6 per cent, keeping the region above the five per cent mark for three consecutive quarters.

Local agents reported an oversupply, along with lower tenant enquiry levels. The majority of those surveyed in the REIQ’s rental survey reported fewer than two applicants per rental listing. Residents were leaving the area in search of work and this unemployment was impacting on the rental market.

Median weekly rents from the RTA were relatively unchanged across all rental types for the quarter despite the current weak tenant demand.

JUN 15 SEP 15

The Cairns property market has performed consistently, with most of the September quarter conditions the same as June, except for a small lift in sales activity for both the house and unit sales markets.

Vendors grew more confident and priced a little more aggressively, which they then discounted to close the sale, and this pushed the average vendor discounting rate up slightly compared to a year ago.

Residential developments remained low-key with only smaller scale developers active.

According to local agents, overall confidence in the market grew and the region enjoyed a better lead-up to Christmas this year compared to last. Listing prospects also improved and this has provided a healthy forecast for 2016.

The outlook for the region is very positive with recent major events including the North Queensland Economic Summit and the Tourism Innovation Conference.

At the Tourism Innovation Conference, well-known demographer Bernard Salt said that the region had the opportunity to tap into the Chinese market and become the “Pacific playground of the rich and powerful”.

Cairns will host the basketball heats for the 2018 Commonwealth Games, as well as other cultural events, and these highlights will boost the region's tourism industry.

HOUSE MARKET

The strong result for the September quarter came as no surprise as at is typically the strongest selling period of the year. In fact, the September quarter has recorded an increase in activity every year for the past six years.

Preliminary house sale numbers were up 12 per cent with the upper end of the market performing the strongest. House sales in the $500,000-plus price point were up around 25 per cent and four homes exchanged hands for in excess of $1 million.

Activity in the sub-$500,000 price point also remained strong, resulting in the median sale price remaining relatively balanced, up 2.6 per cent over the quarter.

Average days on market continued to improve with Cairns now rivalling Toowoomba as the fastest selling region, with an average 67 days on market.

Listings were up 19 per cent over the year, however, some ambitious vendor pricing has resulted in the average vendor discounting rate increasing slightly to 6.4 per cent.

UNIT MARKET

With growing investor interest in the region, the Cairns unit market is finally showing very positive results with improving days on market and average vendor discounting compared to the same time last year.

Although interest is growing, investment purchases are said to be most predominant in the affordable segment of the market. Units priced within the sub-$150,000 price range are most popular. Considered within the “safety zone” for non-local investors, some are being bought sight unseen.

Over the quarter, preliminary unit sales were up 12 per cent with the median sale price up 2.5 per cent. The region’s unit market however still has some way to go with the annual median still down on that recorded five years ago.

RENTAL MARKET

Cairns’ residential rental market remains healthy with just 2.6% per cent vacancy. Tenant enquiry levels have reportedly softened along with some agencies acquiring newly built rental stock which is adding to supply.

Median rental prices have remained strong with increases recorded for townhouse rentals over the September quarter as well as one-bedroom flats.
