QUEENSLAND HOUSE SALES PEAK SALES MARKET

The numbers of house sales across Queensland peaked at the end of last year as well as recorded healthy price growth according to the REIQ’s Queensland Market Monitor (QMM) for the December quarter.

December quarter data shows that the volume of house sales hit its annual peak of activity in the last three months of 2013. The numbers of sales was also one of the healthiest quarterly periods for a number of years.

Not only can the December quarter claim to be the third strongest in as many years, it was also firming without the aid of extraneous stimulus measures.

Queensland’s most recent peak was in September 2012 when the return of stamp duty concessions underpinned the increased sales activity.

2 QUEENSLAND MARKET MONITOR

However, the strength of this latest quarter is a direct reflection of the improving market and growing confidence levels.

The September quarter, or spring selling season, historically records the high numbers of sales. Last year, however, the December quarter trumped it with the preliminary numbers of house sales peaking at just shy of 10,000 for that three-month period.

This was the case across most major regions of the State which is a further signal that the Queensland market is well into its next growth phase. And when we compare 2013 to the very good times of 2007, we are sitting at about 75 per cent of the sales volumes that occurred during that year.

Not only are more properties selling, they are taking less time to do so and with less discounting. The most recent data shows that in Brisbane, for example, the average time it takes to sell a home has reduced to 74 days with average discounting from list prices sitting at about 6 per cent.

And REIQ accredited agencies are reporting that many properties are now selling for their asking prices or above with instances of multiple offers also increasing.

Just as the volume of sales is growing so too are median house prices in most regions. Over the December quarter, the Brisbane median house price increased 6 per cent to $562,000 – the third best performer over the quarter. There was a significant jump in sales between $500,000 and $1 million over the period which can partly explain this quarterly price increase.

The top major region over the period was Moreton Bay which posted median house price growth of 7.7 per cent to $387,750. The Greater Brisbane region is attractive for first home buyers and investors given its relative affordability and also it has the lion’s share of new housing developments across the Brisbane area.

The next best performer was Toowoomba which again posted median price growth over the quarter. Its median house price increased 6.5 per cent to $329,000. Over the year ending December, its median grew by an impressive 8.5 per cent. Toowoomba’s proximity to the Surat Basin Energy Province continues to underpin its strong property market and potential for future growth.

The median price of units and townhouses across South East Queensland grew over the December quarter as well. The preliminary numbers of unit sales also increased six per cent over the year.

The unit market is continuing to improve in-line with the house sales market – albeit centred around the southeast corner.

A key difference between the Queensland house and unit markets is that predominantly the lion’s share of these types of properties is located in the southeast as that is where demand for housing is the greatest.

In fact, demand for units in Brisbane has resulted in record numbers of off-the-plan sales lately. According to recently-released research, more than 1,000 new apartment sales were transacted in the December quarter – the highest level since 2002.

RENTAL MARKET

The REIQ’s latest residential rental survey, carried out in December across all REIQ accredited agencies, has found that the majority of the State recorded higher vacancy rates compared to the three months before.

Over a third of REIQ member agencies reported an increase in investor activity, subsequently adding to the rental pool. In addition to this, the end of the year is historically a period of lower tenant demand with many vacating over the Christmas and New Year periods, usually in a move to another area for either work or educational reasons.

While local agents report seeing the beginning of easing asking rents, figures from the Residential Tenancies Authorities figures for the December quarter, are yet to show a decline in median weekly rents for South East Queensland and the Central Coast. While in the mining regions, where vacancy rates have been trending upwards for a number of consecutive quarters now, falling median weekly rents are becoming the norm.

All sales data includes "Recent Sales" as advised by real estate agents as well as official records as advised by DNRM.

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 (representing 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 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 to the end of November 2013.

"Average 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 and listings without an advertised asking price are excluded from the calculation.

"Average 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.

"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.

BRISBANE CITYSALES MARKETS

Over the December quarter, the Brisbane median house price increased 6 per cent to $562,000 – the third best performer over the quarter.

Contributing to this healthy increase in its median was a shift in the composition of sales over the quarter.

Compared to the September quarter, house sales numbers in the $500,000 to $1 million price point were up about 20 per cent, while sales activity in the $1 million-plus price point was up about 15 per cent.

Recovery in prestige property sales numbers is typically an indicator that confidence is returning to the property market.

The top three suburbs to record the most property sales in excess of $1 million over the December quarter included Paddington, New Farm and Indooroopilly, all city fringe suburbs.

Further evidence of increased activity at the top end was the higher number of Brisbane suburbs to record an increase in excess of 15 per cent in its median house price over the quarter.

Of the 15 suburbs to record an increase, the majority had a median over $650,000.

Other market indicators signalling continued improving confidence is the time properties are spending on the market and the amount which vendors are negotiating.

The most recent figures show that in Brisbane, the average time it takes to sell a house has reduced to 74 days, down from 87 a year ago with average discounting from list prices sitting at about 6 per cent compared to 7 per cent over the same period.

In the unit and townhouse market, average days on market has also improved to 85, down from 96, while average vendor discounting is just 5 per cent.

The Brisbane unit and townhouse price increased 2 per cent over the quarter to $408,000 and posted 1.5 per cent growth over the year. There was a jump in sales in the prestige unit market with sales between $500,000 and $1 million increasing by 13 per cent over the period.

Demand for these top-end properties are reflected in the spike in median price in suburbs such as Hamilton and Kangaroo Point which have been impacted by the sale of higher priced units, many with river-views.

The Brisbane CBD also recorded one of the highest increases in sales activity, nudging back up over 100 preliminary sales numbers for the quarter, as well as posting a steady 2.2 per cent increase in its median.

RENTAL MARKET

In the Brisbane City local government area, the vacancy rate as at the end of December was 3.2 per cent, up from 2.3 per cent at the end of September. Local agents report higher than usual vacancies for this time of year as tenants are either relocating for work or purchasing their own property.

Across Brisbane the results are varied. Inner Brisbane, suburbs within 5km of the CBD, recorded the highest increase, up 1.7 percentage points to 4.1 per cent.

For Brisbane suburbs beyond 5km, the vacancy rate eased just 0.6 percentage points to 2.8 per cent.

Over the December quarter, median weekly rents remained relatively steady for two bedroom units and three bedroom townhouses, while three bedroom houses recorded an increase of $10 to $410 per week compared to the previous quarter.

SALES MARKET

All four of Brisbane’s surrounding council areas posted median house price over the December quarter while also recording greater numbers of sales compared to the previous quarter.

The top major region across Queensland over the period was Moreton Bay which posted median house price growth of 7.7 per cent to $387,750. The region is attractive for first home buyers and investors given its relative affordability and also has the lion’s share of new housing developments across the Brisbane area. Its numbers of preliminary house sales also increased by 8 per cent over the year.

The Ipswich City council area recorded median house price growth of 4.4 per cent to $308,000 over the quarter. Its preliminary numbers of house sales was also up by 4 per cent compared to the historically more voluminous September quarter.

Redland City posted a median house price increase of 3.5 per cent to $455,500 and 8 per cent more preliminary house sales over the quarter. Logan City recorded house growth of 3 per cent to $345,000 with preliminary house sales up more than 10 per cent over the year.

Of all four major regions, Redland City now has the lowest days on market at 84 – down from 99 a year before. In Logan and Moreton Bay, the average discounting is now 6 per cent while in Redland City and Ipswich it is 7 per cent.

When it comes to the unit and townhouse market, it was a mixed bag for the Greater Brisbane region but this is probably due to the size of the unit markets in each area.

Logan’s median unit and townhouse price increased 5.7 per cent to $240,000 over the quarter but this was positively impacted by two new developments – one in Beenleigh and one in Browns Plains – which were sold over the period.

Moreton Bay has the largest unit market in Greater Brisbane and recorded 184 preliminary sales over the December quarter. Its median and unit price posted a minimal reduction of 0.3 per cent to $299,000 over the period.

Redland City’s median unit price grew by 3.4 per cent to $351,000 over the quarter but this was based on less than 70 preliminary sales.

The smallest unit market is in Ipswich, which posted just 50 preliminary sales and recorded a median unit price fall of 7.8 per cent to $219,000 over the period due to the varying quality of stock sold.

RENTAL MARKET

For the surrounding Brisbane local government areas, rental markets still remain tight despite a slight easing in vacancy rates. All areas recorded vacancy rates under 2.5 per cent, with Redland City the only area to record an increase of more than one percentage points in its vacancy rate.

Across the Greater Brisbane area, around 40 per cent of REIQ agents surveyed reported an increase in investor activity; however tenant demand remains strong in most areas, keeping vacancy rates at low levels. The increased investor activity was most notable in the Moreton Bay area.

Median weekly rents across the Greater Brisbane area saw small increases for two bedroom units and three bedroom houses, with all regions posting increases of either $5 or $10 since September. Ipswich City continues to post the most affordable median weekly rents across all rental property types.

REGIONAL MARKET UPDATES

A solid performer in terms of price growth and sales activity was Robina which recorded a median house price increase of 10.1 per cent to $545,000 over the quarter. It also posted an increase in sales over the quarter and the year.

Another strong performer was Palm Beach which recorded median price growth of 12.5 per cent to $540,000 over the quarter as well 10 per cent over the year.

The median unit and townhouse price on the Gold Coast increased 1.5 per cent to $340,000 over the quarter and was steady over the year. While the Gold Coast’s preliminary number of unit sales reduced over the quarter, over the year volumes increased by 21 per cent.

Local agents say the unit market has not bounced back to the same degree as the house market as yet but it is expected to follow its lead in the months ahead.

A solid performer over the quarter was Currumbin Waters which posted median unit price growth of 10.1 per cent to $315,000. Over the year ending December, its median price increased by 7.3 per cent.

RENTAL MARKET

In our tourism centres, residential vacancy rates remain at healthy levels. The Gold Coasts recorded a tighter vacancy rate, down 0.4 percentage points to 1.9 per cent since September.

Median weekly rents on the Gold Coast have been steadily increasing since the start of 2013, with three bedroom houses up $20 to $420 per week between December 2012 and December last year – the highest increase in over four years where median rents have hovered around the $400 mark.

The median rent of a two-bedroom unit on the Gold Coast increased $15 per week to $355 over the same period.

SALES MARKET

The median house price on the Gold Coast increased 1.7 per cent to $480,000. The preliminary numbers of house sales increased 10 per cent compared to the September quarter.

According to local REIQ accredited agencies, sales activity is strengthening however stock is becoming an issue.

Well-priced properties are selling close to list price – especially in the under $500,000 price bracket.

There is currently a lot of pent-up demand which is being released due to the improving conditions, low interest rates, and media commentary on the strengthening Gold Coast market.

According to local agents, there are instances of more demand than supply which is helping price growth, while good stock is becoming increasingly difficult to source.

First home buyers are more active in the market after a prolonged period on the sidelines.

First-time buyers have worked out that it can be more affordable to buy than rent in some areas and they are making their move into the market.

Local agents say the outlook for this year is extremely positive with the potential for continued moderate price growth as well as improvements in the region’s tourism and construction sectors.

Sellers’ expectations are beginning to trend up with many now expecting to sell their properties at or above list price.

Investors are more active in the market given the strength of the region’s rental market which is providing some good returns.

The approval of the 2nd range crossing is also said to be a boost for not only the local economy but also for local amenity as large trucks will no longer be driving through the city centre.

RENTAL MARKET

Investor activity is reportedly up, predominantly within close proximity to the Toowoomba metropolitan area, as is tenant demand with one agency reporting very high numbers of applicants recently.

With increased demand being matched with increased investment activity, Toowoomba’s vacancy rate remained unchanged since September, at 1.3 per cent.

Median weekly rents from the RTA correspondingly continue to record steady growth. Compared to the December quarter 2012, three bedroom townhouses recorded the highest increase, up $48 to $330 per week. Given the number of new bond lodgements are low, the higher median rent was no doubt influenced by the increasing number of higher quality townhouses available for rent.

Meanwhile, three bedroom houses were up $10 to $290 per week and two bedroom flats were up $15 to $240 per week over the same period. Three bedroom flats still remain the most popular investment property with over 600 new bonds lodged over the December quarter 2013

SALES MARKET

The Toowoomba property market continues to go from strength to strength, with the December quarter seeing preliminary sales volumes increase by around 10 per cent. The Toowoomba Regional median house price was up a strong 6.5 per cent to $329,000.

According to local agents, the Toowoomba property market has continued to show robust confidence levels. Sales in the sub-$500,000 bracket are reportedly strong, with some properties taking less than a week to sell.

Local agents say both owner-occupiers and investors are very active in the market, with increasing numbers at open for inspections. First home buyers however are unfortunately still low in numbers due to minimal affordably-priced properties available on the market.

Investor demand is said to be particularly strong for properties that are priced well relative to their rental return, with such properties spending little time on the market.

Another indicator that the Toowoomba property market is strengthening is increased sales activity in the premium end of the market, with up-graders and owner-occupiers making the step up into a higher price range.

In the unit and townhouse market, the Toowoomba median sale price increased 6.5 per cent to $263,000 with an increase in preliminary sales numbers also recorded over the quarter.

The Toowoomba unit market is seeing small townhouse developments pop up across the metropolitan area, such as Newtown and Kearneys Spring. While higher-end sales in East Toowoomba and Rangeville have also contributed to the increase in the region’s median price over the quarter.

Over the coming year, local agents expect to see continued quiet confidence, with confident capital growth expected.

Local agents say the region is set to vastly benefit from the opening of the Brisbane West Wellcamp in October, which is a privately owned and funded airport.

The airport is to have the fourth largest landing strip in Australia which will open up Toowoomba to domestic flights and have the potential to see the region become a residential hub for fly-in-fly-out workers.

RENTAL MARKET

In Queensland’s tourism centres, residential vacancy rates remain at healthy levels. The Sunshine Coast recorded a tighter vacancy rate, down 0.3 percentage points to 1.1 per cent since September.

Across the coast, vacancy rates are well within the more demand than supply territory with rates ranging from just 0.6 per cent on the Maroochy Coast to 1.9 per cent in the hinterland.

According Sunshine Coast agents, rental vacancies are taking between one to two weeks to lease with at least two to five applicants per vacancy.

The median rent of a three-bedroom house on the Sunshine Coast increased $5 per week to $385 between December 2012 and December last year.

The median rent for a two-bedroom unit increased $15 per week to $320 over the same period.

SALES MARKET

The median house price on the Sunshine Coast increased 3.6 per cent to $456,000 over the quarter. The preliminary numbers of house sales were also up 15 per cent compared to the September quarter.

According to local REIQ accredited agencies, the Sunshine Coast market had already moved up a gear following the successful December period.

The market was continuing its upward trajectory with even more sales happening and a general optimism amongst buyers and sellers.

Demand was strongest in the under $600,000 price bracket, but a few months ago it would have been the under $500,000 bracket which, according to local agents, was an indication of the strength of the market.

The region’s tight rental market is attracting investors into the market and auctions are also are becoming an increasingly popular sales method.

The general consensus is there are a lot of people downsizing. More first home buyers are coming into the market now, more in some areas than in others. Investor buyers are increasing, including self-managed super fund purchases. Some want a sea change; some are retiring, relocating and looking for work or have a job transfer.

One local agent said they had heard of one auctioneer, who sold $10 million-worth of property under the hammer in one day recently, with many sale prices being above reserve given the competition amongst bidders.

Stock was also becoming an issue which was underpinning the current price growth. The region’s market was well and truly out of the woods after three tough years, according to local agents who anticipate this year will see sales activity comparable to 2007.

At top performer for price growth and sales activity over the quarter was Buderim which recorded price growth of 7.3 per cent to $523,000 over the period. Its median house price was up 6.8 per cent over the year as well.

Another strong performer over the quarter and the year was Marcoola which posted median house price growth of 10.6 per cent to $479,000 and increased 9.4 per cent over the year.

The median price of units and townhouses increased 6.3 per cent to $340,000 over the quarter. The preliminary numbers of unit sales were also up by 14 per cent over the same period.

FRASER COASTSALES MARKET

The Fraser Coast property market saw a slight easing of sales activity over the December quarter however buyer enquiry was reportedly strong over the period.

The regions’ median house price however continued to remain steady, up just 0.5 per cent to $291,500 since the September quarter.

According to local agents, confidence levels were generally up with buyer enquiries continuing to increase and investor activity also improving.

First home buyers are reportedly still low in numbers however the low interest environment and good buying opportunities should see them begin to re-emerge.

One such suburb, which was one of the region’s best performers in terms of sales activity, was Toogoom. With a median of just $287,000 the suburb is said to have very good entry level prices.

Local agents also say well-priced properties were selling much quicker, although the premium market was still struggling somewhat.

Overall preliminary house sales numbers were down about 10 per cent over the quarter, however this is typical for the region at this time of year.

The trend towards lifestyle properties is evident however, with strong sales in the acreage home market saw the Fraser Coast’s median acreage house price increase 12 per cent over the quarter, with sales numbers nudging up more since September.

The outlook for the Fraser Coast is very positive with a number of developments currently underway, including the shopping centre expansion due for completion mid this year and the new private hospital.

Both of these major developments are set to provide increased job opportunities for the region, which will give the local economy a good boost for the coming years.

SALES MARKET (CONT'D)

Council has also recently released an incentive policy for developers that will see a reduction in infrastructure charges in a bid to encourage more residential development in the area.

The tourism industry continues to show signs of recovery with tourism operators reporting a good season over the Christmas and New Years’ period, thanks to some very nice weather.

The Fraser Coast unit and townhouse market is reportedly still recovering from an oversupply of new properties. With minimal new developments coming onto the market, local agents say the majority of sales activity is occurring in the established unit market, which is resulting in a drop in the median compared to five years ago.

Over the December quarter the median unit and townhouse price fell 9.9 per cent to $220,000. While sales activity was down across all price points, the sub-$250,000 price point remained the most active which contributed to the drop in median for the quarter.

RENTAL MARKET

On the Fraser Coast vacancy rates eased somewhat, up 0.4 percentage points to 3.4 per cent since September. With a vacancy rate still around 3 per cent, the Fraser Coast is still experiencing healthy rental market conditions, markedly improved from the over-supply experienced a few years ago.

Median weekly rents are up slightly compared to a year ago with three bedroom houses up $5 to $275 per week, two bedroom flats up $10 to $220 per week and three bedroom townhouses also up $10 to $310 per week

BUNDABERGSALES MARKET

Over the December quarter 2013 the Bundaberg median house price increased 5.7 per cent to $280,000 with preliminary sales numbers increasing by 3 per cent over the quarter.

With interest rates currently on hold and a general awareness the market is improving, buyers are reportedly more active and confident buying in the Bundaberg area.

Local agents also report a steady influx of people moving to the area with owner-occupiers being the most active, particularly in the $350,000-plus bracket. Over the quarter, this price point was behind the majority of the increased activity.

Higher quality, four bedroom homes are most favoured according to local agents, while investors who typically look more at the $250,000 to $350,000 properties with good rental returns haven’t been quite as active this quarter.

The suburb of Bargara proved most popular with 20 preliminary sales recorded for the quarter, up on the September quarter. Sales numbers were also up in the inner suburbs of Norville, Walkervale and the southern beachside town of Woodgate.

Kepnock also recorded steady results for the quarter, with a 5.5 per cent increase in its house median. Over the year, the suburb also recorded the highest increase in sales activity with some new residential development contributing to this increase out along Kepnock Rd.

Located on the eastern outskirts of the Bundaberg metropolitan area, Kepnock is said to be in an ideal position with close proximity to the CBD and drive out to the beaches at Bargara.

Confidence has also been buoyed by a number of good news stories around new developments in the area for retail, tourism and infrastructure.

Developments coming up include the new Masters store, the redevelopment of the turtle rockery, upgrades to the Bundaberg Rum Distillery tourist facilities, council announcing the development of the airport and also the redevelopment of the marina at Burnett Heads.

These four developments are said to vastly improve the amenity of the area for local residents as well as provide increased job opportunities.

With so much activity going on, local agents feel the outlook for the area is all very positive moving forward.

In the unit and townhouse market, sales activity was also up while the median recorded a drop of 18 per cent due to a drop in the number of higher quality units with water views compared to the September quarter.

The majority of unit sales continue to occur in the beachside suburb of Bargara although over the 2013 Calender year the number of water front unit sales was down markedly compared to 2012, resulting in a significant drop in the annual median.

Over the quarter the increased sales activity was recorded in the sub-$250,000 price point which also contributed to the fall in the overall median sale price.

RENTAL MARKET

Despite a quiet Christmas period seeing vacancy rates ease to 4.3 per cent, local agents report an increase in investor activity with strong returns continuing.

Local agents from the Burnett Heads area report healthy market conditions, with investor activity strong in new development releases.

Would-be vendors are also reportedly keeping their properties within the rental pool, in anticipation of stronger conditions in the sales market in the year ahead.

Median rents from the RTA show steady tenant demand, with median weekly rents also holding strong over the past few quarters.

"Confidence has also been buoyed by a number of good news stories around new developments in the area for retail, tourism and infrastructure"

SALES MARKET

After very subdued activity over the first three quarters of 2013, the Gladstone property market is finally starting to see a recovery in sales, most notably the detached house market.

Over the December quarter the median house price increased 5 per cent to $420,000 while preliminary sales numbers increased by 17 per cent.

Local REIQ accredited agencies say normality is returning to the market.

According to local agents, the market was now beginning to improve with a sense of normality returning, despite volumes being well below what they were a year ago.

With house sales volumes picking up once again, the region is starting to see the median house price likewise creep up.

First home buyers are reportedly becoming more active as are other home buyers. With investor activity down, owner-occupiers are finally taking advantage of some breathing space.

Local agents say that given the significant changes in the Gladstone market, many buyers are seeing this as a great opportunity to enter the market or upgrade their existing home.

The longer days on market compared to 12 months ago are also said to be merely a reflection of the uncertainty around the mining industry over the past year.

Other indicators that the market is steadying are on-the-market listings, as well as the number of properties under construction reducing and local agents are confident this will continue to steady the Gladstone property market over the next quarter.

Albeit a small proportion of the Gladstone property market, the unit and townhouse market continues to languish, with sales activity continuing to decline for the last quarter of the year, despite a small spike in activity over the September quarter.

Investor activity in the unit market has all but come to a stop, with those still active more interested in the detached house market.

GLADSTONE

With a significant drop off in new unit sales, suburbs such as Gladstone City and Glen Eden recorded large declines in their annual median unit price compared to a year ago. The flurry of investor activity is also said to have propped up property prices at that time.

RENTAL MARKET

At the of December 2013, the Gladstone rental market continued to show easing market conditions with the vacancy rate increasing yet again to 7.7 per cent.

Up from 5.8 per cent in September and up from 2.1 per cent 12 months ago, local agents in Gladstone report a continued glut of rental stock. The market is still adjusting to going from a severe lack of supply to an oversupply as multiple new developments have come onto the market.

Downturn in the mining industry is seeing work contracts coming to an end resulting in many leaving the area in search of work.

Since the end of December however, there are signs that activity is once again picking up which should in turn see the overall vacancy rate improve.

With continued easing tenant demand and over supply issues, corrections in asking rents also continue. Compared to the December quarter 2012, median rents for three bedroom houses are down $105 to $395 per week, two bedroom flats down $70 to $330 per week and three bedroom townhouses down $80 to $480 per week.

"After a very subdued activity over the first three quarters of 2013, the Gladstone property market is finally starting to see a recovery in sales activity, most notably the house market."



The suburbs of Yeppoon and Norman Gardens were the top performers for the quarter, with both suburbs posting an increase in sales activity.

Yeppoon continues to be a popular choice for home buyers and investors given its coastal location and driving distance from a major regional centre.

Within the Rockhampton metropolitan area, Norman Gardens has continued in popularity with new housing developments and the outlook a number of homes have located in the elevated areas of the suburb.

SALES MARKET

As seen in the previous quarter, the Rockhampton house market remained steady over the December quarter, with the median house price increasing just 0.5 per cent to $320,000.

Local agents say Rockhampton’s property market continues to remain very stable, despite easing conditions in the mining regions. Confidence levels reportedly remain steady with the outlook for the region quite positive.

Rockhampton is fortunate in that it does not rely solely on the mining industry, or any one industry for that matter, and is therefore relatively well insulated from any downturn.

Rockhampton’s property market has historically lagged behind the Brisbane market, giving local agents confidence that the region has something to look forward to given the positive sales activity in SEQ.

Sales activity remained steady over the quarter with little change in preliminary sales numbers compared to three months before. Whilst the sub-$350,000 price point records the majority of sales numbers, the $500,000 plus price point did see numbers nudge up higher since September.

Buyer activity is said to be evenly split between investors and owner-occupiers, with investors continuing to be attracted to the affordably priced properties in the area.

In the unit and townhouse market there is continued development along the riverfront with two major high rise developments currently under construction. Both have proven popular with buyers and have reportedly all been sold off-the-plan.

Other sales activity in the unit market has been spread across the various suburbs in Rockhampton, with the median unit and townhouse price increasing 9.8 per cent over the quarter.

Other market indicators show the Rockhampton unit market as the most improved across all the major LGAs in Queensland, with average days on market at 105 days, down from 139 days 12 months ago.

With sales in new inner city developments yet to settle, the majority of unit sales continue to be recorded in Yeppoon.

RENTAL MARKET

While the sales market remains steady, the Rockhampton rental market continues to show easing market conditions. At the end of December, local REIQ agents reported a vacancy rate of 7 per cent, up from 4.7 per cent at the end of September.

This high level of vacancy however is largely a result of the oversupply of investor stock in the suburb of Gracemere, with tenants also relocating from the area in search of work.

Median weekly rents for three bedroom houses in the postcode 4702, which includes the suburb of Gracemere, were down $40 to $310 per week compared to a year ago.

Three bedroom townhouses however recorded a median of $440 per week, which in turn saw the Rockhampton LGA’s median rent increase to $420 for the December quarter, up from $340 a year ago.

Despite the easing market conditions, local agents are reportedly seeing signs of recovery since the start of 2014.

The town of Sarina, with a median of $270,000, recorded one of the highest increases in sales for the quarter, which local agents say may be due to the expansion of the Hay Point Coal Port seeing new residents locating to the area.

The top performer was the suburb of Rural View, with preliminary sales numbers more than double that recorded during the September quarter. Located in the northern development corridor, the result is a good sign that supply levels are slowly being absorbed.

In the unit and townhouse market, sales activity was down on the previous quarter, while the median sale price recorded a steady increase of 2.5 per cent.

With investor activity down, this segment of the property market continues to be slow with owner-occupiers more interested in the detached house market.

After a languid 2013, the resources industry is said to have turned the corner and the outlook for the region is positive.

SALES MARKET

Over the December quarter the Mackay median house price decreased 2.4 per cent to $410,000 with preliminary sales numbers increasing by 11 per cent over the quarter.

Although there was increase in activity, local agents say the market was still relatively slow. Overall volumes of sales are down on historical levels, and given the oversupply of houses currently on the market, it is said to still be very much a buyers’ market.

The building industry has slowed and the market is still seeing the tail-end of the influx of investment developments that started three to four years ago.

Confidence levels are said to still be affected by uncertainty around the resources industry and in particular a lack of confidence in the local economy surrounding long-term employment.

The increased sales activity recorded over the quarter was predominantly seen at the affordable end of the market with suburbs such as Andergrove and Bucasia recording a drop in house median sale price for the quarter.

"After a languid 2013, the resources industry is said to have turned the corner and the outlook for the region is positive."

31




The sales and rental markets appear to have bottomed with the recovery said to be slow with supply expected to remain stronger then demand for at least the first half of this year. Local agents however predict that this imbalance is to be corrected by the end of the year

RENTAL MARKET

The rental market in Mackay is similar to that seen in Gladstone, with job losses and over supply of rental stock within new residential developments affecting the vacancy rate.

At the end of December 2013 Mackay recorded a vacancy rate of 7.7 per cent up from 5 per cent three months ago. Local agents report vacancies taking in excess of 4 weeks to fill and low applicant numbers per listing.

Despite some incidences of local agents reporting expensive asking rents, the easing vacancy levels are converting to lower median weekly rents. Compared to the December quarter 2012, median rents are down $70 to $390 for three bedroom houses, down $60 to $300 per week for two bedroom flats and down $120 to $380 per week for three bedroom townhouses.

The numbers of new bonds lodged for the December quarter 2013 however were all up for each of these rental types over the same period.

New unit sales in the suburb of Idalia were also up for the quarter, contributing to the overall increase in the region’s median sale price.

RENTAL MARKET

With a recovery occurring in the sales market, the rental market in Townsville has eased. As at the end of December local agents report a vacancy rate of 4.8 per cent, up from 3.5 per cent at the end of September.

Local agents say the release of new developments and in particular NRAS developments are adding to supply and creating a two-tiered rental market in terms of asking rent.

The slowdown in mining is having some impact on investor confidence; however local agents feel that the Townsville property market is beginning to show signs of improvement.

According to the latest figures from the RTA, median weekly rents eased across most rental property types compared to the December quarter 2012. Three bedroom houses and two bedroom townhouses were both down $10 to $340 and $280 per week respectively, while two bedroom flats remained steady at $280 per week.

SALES MARKET

The Townsville median house price increased 3.2 per cent to $357,000 with preliminary sales numbers increasing by 17 per cent over the quarter.

Similar to South East Queensland, this increase in activity over the December quarter bucks the typical trend of the Christmas and New Year's period being one of the quieter times for the property market.

According to local agents, the Townsville house market is returning to solid conditions following a very subdued September quarter that was affected by the Federal Election. With low interest rates enticing buyers back into the market, local agents say it’s business as usual.

While first home buyers are still nowhere to be seen, investors have come back to a degree - typically targeting the city fringe or central business district locations.

Of the owner-occupiers most active, up-graders looking to buy in the $500,000 to $700,000 price range are reportedly the stand out buyers. With sales activity in this price bracket, confidence is reportedly improving.

With buyer activity up, a number of suburbs across Townsville recorded healthy results. Top performers included Annandale, Burdell, Kirwan and Douglas. Apart from Kirwan, all of these suburbs have medians in excess of $400,000 – suburbs typically targeted by up-graders.

The suburb of Idalia recorded a number of new house sales which contributed to the suburbs median increasing 11.3 per cent over the quarter to $464,000.

The unit and townhouse market in Townsville is also the rebound with preliminary sales numbers up 25 per cent compared to the September quarter, and the median sales price was up 7.7 per cent to $280,000.

Increased sales activity was recorded in the suburbs of Nelly Bay, North Ward and Townsville City. Nelly Bay, located on Magnetic Island, saw a number of sales in a premium resort-style complex, where investors have been achieving good value for money prices.

"With low interest rates enticing buyers back into the market, local agents say it’s business as usual"



SALES MARKET

The median house price in Cairns increased 1 per cent to $355,000 over the December quarter. Its median also increased 2.9 per cent over the year. The preliminary numbers of house increased 14 per cent over the year.

According to local agents, the Cairns market is performing well with volumes and prices increasing. Auction clearance rates are reportedly rising as are prices for auctioned properties.

The Cairns property market has a cyclical nature and as such the December quarter is usually more buoyant than the March period. This appears to currently be the case with local agents reporting a slight reduction in sales activity since the final three months of 2013. That said stock is quickly becoming difficult to source which is underpinning price growth.

Investors are particularly interested in the Cairns market with enquiries being fielded from interstate investors as well as those overseas. This was partly due to positive press coverage of the region by economic commentators.

The instances of multiple offers are becoming more prevalent and local agents say the prices are nearly back to their peak in 2006 with the only way up from there.

The Cairns market is expected to continue to improve throughout this year with demand likely to exceed supply as affordable and good stock dries up.

Two solid performers for median house price movements over the December quarter were Port Douglas and Redlynch. The median house price in Port Douglas increased 13 per cent to $463,500 while Redlynch’s posted growth of 15 per cent to $477,500.

The Cairns unit market, while improving, is not yet in the same league as the house market. According to local agents, however, the low price points available in the unit market are attracting buyers but stock levels at the bottom end of the market are quickly disappearing.

The median unit and townhouse price in Cairns reduced 14.7 per cent to $183,500 but was steady over the year ending December. A drop in median price of this proportion is usually the result of the composition of sales which sold over the three-month quarterly period.

A more reliable indicator of price movement is the yearly price change. In this regard, a solid performer over the year ending December was Cairns City which posted a median unit price increase of 6.3 per cent to $340,000. Likewise, Earlville’s median unit price increased 6 per cent to $195,000 over the same period.

RENTAL MARKET

In Cairns, vacancy rates did ease somewhat at the end of December, up 0.4 percentage points since September. Local agents report an undersupply of house rentals with most vacancies coming from unit rentals. At the end of December the vacancy rate in Cairns was 2 per cent.

The median weekly rent for three bedroom houses in Cairns continued to remain relatively stable in December.

For two bedroom flats, median rents were predominantly stable, however Cairns is beginning to record an increase in its median weekly rent, which is no doubt good news for investors who have struggled with rising costs associated with unit developments.

SALES MARKET

The property market for the smaller regional areas located from Mount Isa to St George recorded steady conditions over the December quarter.

Sales activity was strong for the Murweh local government area with the town of Charleville seeing an increase in buyer activity. Located on the western outskirts of the Surat Basin and with a 45 minute direct flight to Roma, Charleville is likely to receive further attention as mining activity ramps up in the Surat Basin.

In Mount Isa, high yields continue to attract investors to the region, albeit in small numbers. The suburb of Healy recorded an increase in activity over the quarter, with some higher priced properties contributing to the increase of 7.9 per cent in the Mount Isa median house price.

Over the five years to 2013, the western regional areas of Queensland continue to record healthy median price growth, something not seen in many parts of the more populated areas of the state.

With the Surat Basin mining industry continuing to strengthen, this growth is likely to continue.

In September last year, a landmark $1.8 billion contract was signed between Thiess and QGC for the works associated with the QCLNG project in the Surat Basin.

With construction work to be completed by November this year, the contract was reportedly said to provide around 2,500 jobs from sites near Dalby and Miles as well as Chinchilla and Wandoan

RENTAL MARKET

Median weekly rents for house rentals in the mining centres of Maranoa and Mount Isa are down markedly since the December quarter 2012. Three bedroom houses recorded a fall of $50 in Maranoa and $70 in Mount Isa to $400 and $500 per week respectively.

Three bedroom townhouses in Mount Isa likewise recorded a fall of $50 to $350 per week, while Maranoa townhouses were up $30 to $310 per week.
