Interstate migration
• Our expectations that the global and even
local economic slowdown would impact on the
numbers of immigrants has not eventuated. In
fact the numbers of migrants surged to a
record high in 1Q 2009.
• Total population growth in the year to June
2009 totalled some 114,000 people, again a
new record, as was the growth rate of 2.1%
• While 70% of the net growth came from
international migration, natural increase
(births-deaths) add the other 30%.
• Interstate migration while not a major
contributor, did show a positive figures for the
first year since 2002/3. Balanced interstate
migration has been important for Victoria’s
population growth in the 2000s, as the net loss
seen in the 1980s and 1990s (an average of
12,000 people per annum) was not repeated.

• Victoria’s strong population growth has
largely been concentrated in the capital.
Over the past seven years over 80% of the
State’s population growth has been
concentrated in Melbourne .
• While this majority could be expected in
2009 and onwards, there has been a
noticeable trend that the proportion of
growth has been slowing. In 2007 and
2008 the level was close to 80%, as
opposed to the high 80% mark in early
2000s.
• However, such was the surge in
population in the year to June 2009 in
Victoria, that the population growth in
Melbourne is likely to have lifted well
above the 75,000 of 2007 and 2008. At a
proportion of 80% the growth would have
been almost 93,000 people.
Population growth year to June
- Melbourne and Victoria
Strong recovery through the year as confidence
lifted and stimulus absorbed
• The generous first home buyers (FHB)
boost plus 50-year low interest rates at a
time of rising sentiment has led to an
active market.
• The owner occupier market rose to recordhighs in terms of numbers of financecommitments approved to buy property.While population growth will have helped,rising confidence would also have drivenactivity.
• Strongest growth was in the finance toconstruct, which rose 125% from the lowsof early 2008 boosted by FHBs.
• New home finance was also up animpressive 69% from late 2008 lows.
• The largest part of the market, finance tobuy an existing home, rose by animpressive but lesser 35% from late 2008.
• While the Federal government has endedthe stimulus for FHBS, the Stategovernment has boosted their own FHBgrant to buy new or construct to mid 2010.

First home buyers holding up better than
expected, but will slow in 2010
• As expected in last years forecasts, first homebuyers (FHBs) took advantage of theincentives offered. However, the success ofthe scheme was far stronger than we hadanticipated with growth of 81% to mid 2009from the lows of October 2008.
• We had expected a slowdown once the grantended and while that has occurred with a fallof 7%, the market has also held up far betterthan expected. In fact much better than mostother States. An offer of an additional $11,000to buy or build new homes by the Stategovernment was initiated in mid 2009, partreplacing the wind down from the Federalgovernment’s boost. This additional Stategrant expires in mid 2010. Although thepopulation growth may be holding FHBs higherthan in the past, we consider that even with theadditional grant, there is a natural expirationdue through 2010.
• The low interest rates and renewed confidencehas meant that the far larger existing owneroccupier market has lifted and held wellthrough the recent tightening phase of theRBA. While further interest rates hikes willsubdue future growth, we consider thatdemand from this sector will remain high.

Investors recovery started and should continue
into 2010
• Investors returned to the Victorian residentialmarket in Q2 2009, with an increase of around27% in nominal borrowing and 15% in priceadjusted.
• However, the market slowed in Q3 2009, withdeclines of 9% and 12% respectively. Signsof improvement were showing again towardsthe end of the year, despite higher interestrates.
• Although the nominal value loan commitmentssuggest the market remained healthy throughthe period of high interest rates and then lowconfidence, the high price growth in 2007would have inflated loan sizes. The priceadjusted activity shows how activity, while notplummeting the depths seen before, slowedsignificantly. The fall in activity during Q3 goesagainst anecdotal evidence of continuedinvestor activity, particularly for inner cityapartments during 2H 2009.
• Given strong price growth in 2H 2009, strongpopulation growth and continued improvementin the economy, investor activity shouldcontinue to improve into 2010.

• Total dwellings for 2009 amounted to 36,075. This
was the highest annual total since 2002. The trend
was for both houses and other dwellings.
• Dwelling approvals for houses in Q3 2009 were
35% higher than in Q4 2008 while other dwellings
increased by 58%.
• There was a minor decline for houses in Q4,
however, such was the growth through the year
that they remained above quarterly levels since
2001.
• In Census 2006 Melbourne averaged of 2.6
persons per dwelling , which for population growth
of 75,000 would need 28,850 dwellings. Since
1985, an average of 98% of approvals have
actually commenced. If Victoria’s demolition rate of
0.6% is applied, some 8,920 dwellings would have
been demolished.
• Taking this into account, the 36,075 approvals
would net down to around 26,434 dwellings. This
is below requirements, even with the highest
approvals for 7 yearsSource: ABS

Vacancy rate
• Higher supply combined with the move of
FHBs, has led to a minor increase in vacancy
to 1.3% as at Q3 2009.
• Last year we forecast that low interest rates
would reduce the need for landlords to lift rents
and that many would avoid pushing tenants
into taking the attractive FHB boost. Average
rents rose 3.5% in the year to September
2009. Average annual growth was 9.2% per
annum over the previous five years.
• With interest rates rising and low vacancy,
landlords can start lifting rents. However, the
State Government’s own FHB boost to June
2010 should ensure any major increases are
held back until after mid year.
• Although affordability may play a part in the
ability to raise rents, Victoria is one of the most
affordable States in the country in which to
rent, at 22.5% of household income.

• The stronger than expected price growth in
the second half of the year and the low
rental growth has led to yields falling once
again. Our forecast was for yields close to
4.8% by end 2009 and although yields did
start to rise as prices fell in early 2009, they
fell in 2H 2009 to 4.1% as at September
2009.
• With rising mortgage rates and the end of
the FHB boost in mid 2010 for Victoria, rents
should start to increase and values flatten
out in the second half of the year.
• Although yields are likely to have fallen
further in Q4 2009 and possibly into Q1
2010, our forecast for the year is for yields of
around 4% by year end.
• This would keep Melbourne yields as the
lowest in the country.

• Our expectation for possible further price falls
did occur in early 2009. In Q1 2009 prices
were some 6% (other dwellings) to 14%
(houses) off their 2007 peak. Falls in the six
months to March 2009 were between 2.5%
(other dwelling) and 5.5% (houses) as
negative sentiment impacted on activity and
prices.
• However, from March 2009 renewed
confidence through job gains, combined with
surging FHBs drove Melbourne prices up by
between 14% (other dwellings) and 18%
(houses) in the six months to September.
This is considered to have continued into Q4.
• Such growth rates are unsustainable and will
slow through 2010. However, with renewed
economic confidence and job growth, stability
or even minor price gains can be expected
through the year.

Affordability (lhs)
Mortgage rate (rhs)
• The latest affordability measure is to Q3
2009, before the rate hikes and continued
price gains of Q4. As at Q3 2009 mortgage
repayments accounted for 28.2% of the
average household income. We estimate
this would have risen to 31.6%, by end Q4,
above the considered 30% mortgage stress
level, but well below the 38% of late 2007.
• Should the mortgage rate rise by a further
75bps, median prices could rise by 15%
before repayments reached the previous
high of 38% of household income (allowing
for 4% growth in income).
• Should a more conservative 5% growth be
achieved in prices from Q4 and debt
increases proportionately, mortgage
repayments would rise to around 35% of
income, which should ensure a more
subdued price growth in 2010.

Melbourne Offices
Melbourne CBD Office market continues to surprise
on the upside
• Net supply of 100,000m2 was lower than
anticipated as some projects slipped into 2010.
This allowed vacancy to rise to a lower than
expected 6.6% by end 2009. We had forecast
8.6%.
• Last year we suggested that Melbourne’s
recent history of out performance could drive
flat occupancy. While correct in 1H 2009,
occupancy grew by almost 22,000m2 in 2H
2009.
• Supply levels are slowing as new starts were
low in 2009. 107,000m2 is under construction
and due mostly in 1H 2010 however rising
confidence should lift withdrawals and reduce
net supply in 2011 and 2012.
• Melbourne CBD’s recent out-performance does
not look to be abating. Employment intention
surveys and forecasts suggest strong future
employment growth. While we have tempered
the impact a little, high net absorption continues
to be forecast for 2010 and 2011, reducing
vacancy to 5% by end 2010 and 4% in 2011.Source: Historical data: PCA OMR – January 2010

• Our forecasts that the St Kilda Road market
would be more affected by the recession
were correct. However, our forecast of
occupancy falling by 17,000m2 proved too
low as net absorption fell by 27,000m2, or
almost 4% of occupied stock. As such
vacancy rose to 11.3%
• In fact occupied space at the end of 2009
was below that at the start of the decade,
with net absorption falling in five of the ten
years. This is in stark contrast to the out-
performance of the CBD.
• Although we have not forecast this trend to
continue, it is difficult to forecast any
improvement. However, with prime
vacancy in St Kilda Road at over 10%, and
over 32,000m2 available, the opportunity for
an inexpensive relocation could help lift the
market.Source: Historical data: PCA OMR – January 2010

• Melbourne CBD prime office rents fell by
almost 13% in 2009, but signs of stability
emerged in Q4 2009. Surprisingly St Kilda
Road rents fell by a lesser 9% for the year,
despite the weaker performance. Our forecast
was for CBD rents to fall by 15% in 2009 and
7% in 2010.
• Incentives rose to around 20% by Q3 2009 and
stabilised in Q4. This is similar to the 2000
downturn. However, with the vacancy lower
than expected, rental falls are no longer
predicted in 2010.
• Should CBD vacancy fall to around 5% in
2010, we expect incentives to fall to around
15%, with supply completions in 1H 2009
keeping them relatively high. This would
generate effective rental growth of 8%.
However, growth should accelerate to 12% in
2011 as incentive falls to 10% and face rents
rise.Source: CB Richard Ellis historic data to December 2009

2008 2009 Q4 2009
• The oversupply in Melbourne started to drive
rents down in 2007. Rents fell by between
10% and 20% from the 2007 peak, although
high tech prime rents fell by 23% to Q3 2009.
• Although supply levels were falling into 2009,
the weakness of demand, particularly in the
first half of the year in 1H 2009 resulted in
continued rental falls. On an annual basis
rents fell most in the distribution centres at
8%. Warehouses rents fell by 6.7% for prime
space and 5% for secondary. High tech
rents stabilised due to a strong Q4.
• However, rents look to have reached bottom
with growth in all sectors in Q4 2009. Prime
high tech rents surged most at 16% for the
quarter.
• With low future supply and the likelihood of
rising demand, rents should continue to lift
through 2010.

2009 Since peak
• The decline in land values, which
commenced in 2008 continued for most
markets into 2009. There were some
exceptions, Tullamarine and Laverton North
plateaued during the year.
• In some markets the rate of decline
accelerated in 2009, although this was early
in the year, with stability evident in Q4.
• Although supply levels are currently low and
demand expected to rise, the space on hold
and projects with development approval
would more than satisfy the need for new
development over 2010. As such land
prices are unlikely to increase over the year.
Once the backlog of projects have been
cleared pressure may commence again on
land. We do not expect further declines in
land values over the year.

Well leased prime space may see firming in yields
over 2010
• As rents started falling in 2007, the easing in
Melbourne’s industrial sector has been the
deepest in the country. Yields have increased
by between 220bps for prime distribution
centres to 295bps for secondary warehouses.
Values falls ranged from 29% for prime
warehouse to 35% for prime high tech
properties.
• While yields did ease marginally in 2009, the
bottom of the market appears to have been
reached, with stability or minor firming in Q4.
• The lift in rents suggest that the overhang of
space has eased and with limited new supply,
investor confidence may find yields attractive at
well above 10-year averages and close to 9%
for prime space. It is likely that yields for well
leased prime space will firm during the year, as
investors compete to secure a good income
flow.Source: Raw data CB Richard Ellis and RBA
