We moved from Sydney to Perth in 2017 as we were unable to escape the rental trap & absolutely love it. We built a 4-bedroom house with a theatre 20km from the city for only $430k with only 2% ($3k) deposit in 2018 thanks to the W.A Government financing the loan with no LMI via Keystart Loans. We felt very frustrated in Sydney & feel very fortunate that the state government here cares about its residents unlike NSW. There are no road tolls either here (unlike NSW thanks to massive corruption by their politicians) & electricity bills are less than a 1/4 of what we used to get in Sydney thanks to the 20 solar panels that only cost us an extra $1000 when we built the house. Our first investment property has been thru an SMSF with our 3-bedroom townhouse in Brisbane going up over $150k since December 2023. We also just bought a 510m2 block for only $289k in Mandurah so we can build our dream house & negatively gear our current house to reduce our taxable income. This was all only possible due to moving to Perth & is how Australia should be in my opinion.

road tolls are not supposed to exist anywhere in Australia. It's the Law as stated in Section 92 of the Constitution.

Interest rates might be at long term averages, but house price to income ratios are through the roof

@cruzrv4399 Ай бұрын

Thanks guys. 18:00 in talk of first home buyers not buying even though rates are low. Due to smart phones and the Internet people are far more financially literate than they used to be and therefore they are aware of the fact that homes are predominantly a liability rather than an asset. We still have older generations that have not educated themselves on economics and finances but for the most part the younger generations are not interested in locking up 30 years of their producing time to an asset that when adjusted for inflation and associate costs will depreciate. Added to this we have a 15 year period. that has just begun with Boomers transitioning into assisted-living, aged care facilities, units and departments which means we will have a glut of property coming onto the market at prices lower than we have seen in the past and the younger generations are acutely aware of this, so they are in no rush to pile in to the housing market at the moment .

I'm renting, I have not been able to go on holidays or do anything enjoyable for a long time. All I do is work, cook my own food, and rarely go out. I think it is very arrogant saying that people aren't spending so much on property because they don't want to give up the life style of going on holidays. I haven't gone on a holiday for almost a decade, and I'm no where near able to afford a home. The only way I can downgrade my life style now is to stop eating and not turn on the lights on at home, or not use the heater when it's freezing. The ONLY people I know that can afford to go on holidays are those who already own their own home out right or are well along the way to pay of their mortgage. I'm just angry at how expensive the market is. I make 80k and that is literally getting me nowhere.

@lisaderwent Ай бұрын

Agreed. Rents are chewing up most of people's wages. Housing affordability is affecting buyers and renters. I truly hope it gets more affordable and you can to go on a holiday some time soon.

@richardv9648 26 күн бұрын

The Idea of going on family holidays is just a thing of the Edwardian era. Your ancestors who lived in the Victorian era never went on Holidays. Thats because all the fruits of colonialism and imperialism from the Victorian era, their offsprings Edwardians got to enjoy. You will not have those luxuries in the Carolean era as Western economies shrink due to the significant loss of Manufacturing Capability and csh stuck in the property markets.

@@richardv9648 You are right. I am just angry at the current economics who's plans are in place (specifically the keynesians economics) that is supposed to improve peoples lives but are actually making it worse for most people. Yet they refuse to acknowledge it and keep it going. They are the flat earthers of economics and yet somehow manage to still be in charge.

"Abolishing negative gearing, reforming capital gains tax, and banning foreign buyers from purchasing residential property while encouraging them to invest in commercial property could help balance the housing market. Providing tax incentives for first-home buyers on their mortgage interest payments for the first ten years (similar to the U.S. housing policy) would promote home ownership, reduce demand for rental properties, and lessen the burden on taxpayers in the form of rental assistance. Additionally, 80% of newly released land should be allocated to first-home buyers."

Just make Negative Gearing and associated CGT discount only apply to new builds, but granted as a tradeable, consumable token that an investor can use against an existing property. That way FHBs can trade the rights to someone else. The net result is a new house was built as a result

@spartanconscience2693 Ай бұрын

The problem is house prices not the number of houses. Clever deflection of this site from the greed of speculators and investors who feed off the extremely generous tax breaks, concessions, grants provided by the taxpayer. The political establishment is too weak willed to pull the plug on the biggest rort in society. Hence an economic catastrophe would be most welcomed and fortunately is coming sooner rather than later. The big one where no amount of money printing will save their rotten and corrupt financial system.

The government should introduce more attractive savings products to encourage investment beyond negative gearing. For example, infrastructure bonds could offer incentives such as a 10% tax offset on investments of $10,000 (providing a $1,000 tax benefit), with the investment locked in for the first ten years and tradable thereafter. These bonds should also provide a competitive dividend yield to attract investors. Funds raised through these bonds could then be used to finance infrastructure development.

Low interest rates relative to long term average interest rates but interest rates compared to house prices/income ratio is off the chart! That’s why first home buyers can’t buy and are renting.

@domlipski5226 Ай бұрын

For those with a 400-500k budget. North Queensland is the clear winner. Yes, it's behind with infrastructure, health care and employment, however, with the continued spread of our population, the government will have no choice but to invest more and more into our regional centres. The biggest pro is obviously lifestyle but other big pro for southerners, is their work ethic. If your CV shows you've migrated North, you're already in the box seat with most employers in North Queensland. The simple fact is, Southerners have better work ethic.

All of these measures have been tried numerous times around the world and none have even remotely worked. More supply is one of the answers but the government needs to reduce the taxes charged on new properties (greenfield sites it’s more than 30% of total investment)

Moved to the Goldie in 1993, I have seen it all. Booms busts, Raptis going bankrupt 4 times, vaccancy rates over 10%. Since covid it has now become a lifestyle city. The cost of living is through the roof and those with deep pockets are dropping huge overs for property. As Bernard salt said about 10 years ago. The GC will become a "ghetto for the rich". Well its the best ghetto in the world. My advice if you want to live on the GC, buy now, as prices will only go up.

It’s interesting watching interview where people have a vested interest in the market. When they mean bad, they mean prices cooling and supply increase….but that is great for the buyer. The Aussie market is so grossly overpriced it’s kinda unbelievable. Artificially kept high by the government and the market itself. Totally ruin it for up coming generations. Unless maybe there’ll be a correction.

@stevanpejic8517 Ай бұрын

Lerlt me ask a simple question, why can't I subdivide a R5 zoned block into 1/4 acre Lots? You guys all have "mates" on Macquarie street, so i think its about time that you lobby them to completely rework planning/zoning rules for exisiting blocks in regional NSW. Sydney is ridiculously expensive and with so much land available West of Lithgow, its about time Councils streamline rezoning of already serviced blocks for at least 1/4 acre blocks. Families DONT want apartments, they want good AFFORDABLE housing in economic corridors with simple access to roads and public transport. It goes for all regional areas right across Australia. Shoving bodies into the Sydney bowl, betweens Penrith Bondi, Mona Vale and Cronulla is planning insanity. #thinkoutsidethebowl
