24.01.2022 Brett Warren from propertyupdate.com.au says Brisbanes housing market is performing strongly, with almost a dozen suburbs hitting double digit price growth. Overseas migrants saw Brisbane as the place to be, bringing 12,847 residents into the city, followed by the Gold Coast and Moreton Bay. Queensland has now become the number-one destination for internal migration, taking over from Victoria, and overseas migration is at its highest level in years.

23.01.2022 Realestate.com.aus executive director of financial services Andrew Russell says having conditional pre-approval - an indication from your lender on what youre eligible to borrow - can "help you skip ahead of the crowded competition" and alleviate some of the stress of buying a home by knowing exactly how much money you have to spend on your dream property purchase. Unsure of the difference between conditional and unconditional pre-approval? Here is a quick overview, but... if ever in doubt, check with your mortgage broker or ask one of our friendly conveyancers: - CONDITIONAL PRE-APPROVAL requires you to provide a lender or mortgage broker with paperwork including personal details, living expenses, deposit size and income and living expenses so the bank can clearly determine what they are willing to lend. But be aware this is not formal approval just yet - instead its a guide to what you can borrow. - UNCONDITIONAL APPROVAL is when a bank looks at all the paperwork relating to the loan application and property and can give you finance for that particular property.

22.01.2022 According to the Real Estate Institute of Queensland, Brisbane house prices are continuing to grow, with new figures revealing they have hit a record high, and the outlook for sellers isnt looking too bad either. REIQ CEO Antonia Mercorella says the growth demonstrates admirable resilience in the local market. She says the price rise has been buoyed by steady population growth, strong demand and a lack of new listings. Full article: https://www.news.com.au///77c014782d45c2aab0d4e28bb8d7fa37

21.01.2022 Suzanne Toumbourou from The Fifth Estate believes that homebuyers and tenants are wising up to the fact that energy-efficient buildings will save them money, with Choice Australia - who speak to a vast consumer audience throughout the country - also producing a "Guide to energy-efficient homes that save money". This is aimed not just at homebuyers but also renters. The Australian Sustainable Built Environment Council (ASBEC)s report The Bottom Line, produced in partnership w...ith ClimateWorks Australia, has also crunched the numbers to show that implementing stronger energy efficiency measures for new buildings could save every household $150 a year.

20.01.2022 Research conducted by ME Bank has shown that the biggest worry for property buyers is getting a home with unforeseen damage, an issue so strong that "forgoing building inspections [is] the biggest mistake they could make." More than four in five survey respondents viewed failing to pay the $500 to $1000 typically required for a building inspection as "a major gamble", and Buyer's Agent Nicole Jacobs Property says the concern is warranted. "You wouldn't buy a car without a roa...dworthy, so why wouldn't you (want) to know the health of a property before buying it?" A building inspection provides you with knowledge on what needs to be done (if anything) and what costs there might be, giving you the ability to move forward to settlement with confidence.

19.01.2022 BACKYARD BLITZ IN NEW BLUEPRINT FOR BRISBANE: Backyards are back in focus under Brisbane City Councils new blueprint for the city. Lord Mayor Graham Quirk says resident responses gathered during the 'Plan Your Brisbane' campaign had been developed into 40 action items which focused on creating neighbourhoods and protecting backyards and would be implemented over the next 18 months. The council will also introduce a Chief Design Office to implement a design strategy and a new... alert system that would notify residents of proposed developments in their area. In this blueprint, council has committed to putting a stop to townhouses and apartments being built in areas for single homes, and restrict repeated designs for townhouses to ensure the city retains its unique character, Cr Quirk said.

15.01.2022 Falling in love can happen at any age, including as we get older and supposedly wiser. Unlike marriage in your twenties and thirties, tying the knot at a later age may come with significant financial risk. Did you know that, unless a contrary intention is shown in your Will, your divorce or annulment of marriage revokes the following: - Any beneficial interest your former spouse had under the Will; - Any appointment of your former spouse as executor, trustee or guardian unde...r the Will; and - Any grant of a power of appointment exercisable by or in favour of your former spouse. Your Will would then take effect as if your former spouse had died before you. However, in Queensland, divorce or annulment of marriage does NOT revoke: - Appointment of your former spouse as trustee of property left by the Will on trust for beneficiaries that include your former spouse's children; or - Grant or power of appointment exercisable by your former spouse only in favour of children of whom you are both parents. Whether you are getting married or divorced you should obtain legal advice as close to the event as possible to discuss the legal implications and effects on your estate planning.

14.01.2022 At its meeting today, the Reserve Bank of Australia decided to leave the cash rate unchanged at 1.50 per cent. "The low level of interest rates is continuing to support the Australian economy. Further progress in reducing unemployment and having inflation return to target is expected, although this progress is likely to be gradual. Taking account of the available information, the Board judged that holding the stance of monetary policy unchanged at this meeting would be consistent with sustainable growth in the economy and achieving the inflation target over time." - Philip Lowe, Governor, RBA Full article: https://www.rba.gov.au/media-releases/2018/mr-18-16.html

12.01.2022 People do not like thinking about death and the effects it has on those they leave behind, but it is something that has to be faced eventually. It is natural that you should wish your property and assets to pass on your death to whomever you choose. By making a will you can ensure that your assets go to those you wish should have them. Buying or Selling a property is an excellent time to think about a new will or reviewing an existing will.

08.01.2022 According to Lucy Stone, Australians are taking more innovative steps and coming up with creative ways to get into the property market, with the idea of buying a house with a friend - rather than family or a partner - one that is becoming more popular. Regulations around a co-ownership purchase can be difficult to navigate, however, and while it can be a highly practical concept, it also needs greater understanding and awareness of the risks and potential for conflict. There ...are two legal types of co-ownership: 1. JOINT TENANCY: Traditionally, this is the kind of agreement made when a married or de facto couple purchase a house together, and tenants in common. A joint tenancy means that if one member of the couple dies, the other retains full ownership over the property. 2. TENANTS IN COMMON: A tenants-in-common agreement, however, is more complicated, as each persons name goes onto the title of the property and if one owner dies, their share of the property is settled according to their will. If you are considering a tenants-in-common agreement, contact us so we can help guide you through the risks, possibilities and legal requirements to manage the transaction successfully for all parties.

08.01.2022 When it comes to the property market, one could be forgiven for saying Queensland has already won the State of Origin, with even realestate.com.au's Chief Economist admitting that Queensland has it over NSW in the property stakes, despite living in NSW herself. As NSW and Queensland prepare to go head to head to battle it out for the crown of rugby league glory, its not just on the playing field that the states proclaim their superiority the competition extends to the hous...ing market. Some Sydneysiders couldnt bear the thought of living anywhere other than the heart of their beloved city and they pay a princely sum for doing so. But venture north to Brisbane and things are decidedly more attractive for property buyers who want a little more bang for their buck.
