Hi guys. I have nominated myself to fight in a local Townsville event, Fight For A Cause. I will be stepping into the boxing ring to complete 3 - 2 minute rounds on the 18th of September. I have chosen to raise money for the Charity Head Space. National Youth Mental Health Foundation. I have decided on this charity because I believe it is an under valued problem in our community. I would be grateful if you could support me with a donation to this charity. I have included a link below.Thank you in advance for your

TOWNSVILLE PROPERTY CONDITION REPORT

The first quarter of 2015 saw the Townsville residential market record continued steadying conditions. Sales activity continues to remain subdued, while time on market also remains steady for both house and unit listings.

According to local agents the Townsville region continues to struggle to find its feet with confidence and the current business climate resulting in inconsistent activity overall. Volumes are said to be there but the market is yet to see much improvement.
Similar to what is being seen in Mackay and Gladstone vendors who have held onto their properties for the longer term are achieving positive results whilst those who are selling within five years of ownership are struggling to sell at a profit.

With minimal investor activity, first home buyers in Townsville have some breathing space and with prices now more affordable, many are said to be taking the plunge. Meanwhile local agents say its only a matter of time before upgraders recognize the current interest rate environment and affordable house prices is a good time to make the move.
However the balance of 2015 they say, will essentially be continued subdued conditions as many vendors continue to wait out the bottom of the market.

HOUSE MARKET
While Townsville looked to be on the road to recovery with an upswing in house sales over the September quarter last year, the following six months saw the Townsville market return to more patchy conditions.
Over the March quarter house sales numbers dropped further by 9 per cent, while the median house price remained relatively steady, down just 0.7 percentage points to $350,000. Over the year to March however, the effect of the slower market is more evident with the region’s annual median down 1.4 and 4.1 per cent over the one and five years respectively.
Local agents say its not all bad news with prime, wellpositioned property are seeing consistent results, whereas secondary stock is taking longer to sell.
Whilst average vendor discounting for house sales has nudged down further to 8 per cent, average days on market have remained relatively steady at around 90 days.

UNIT MARKET
Over the March quarter, Townsville’s unit and townhouse market saw an increase in activity predominantly within the sub-$250,000 and sub-$350,000 price points.
This improvement in activity however is largely on the back of softening prices, according to local agents, as many vendors have to accept a price lower than they paid. It is likely that it is this segment of the market that is behind the increase in average vendor discounting for unit sales, up 0.4 percentage points to 9.4 per cent over the year

Some interesting news from the latest budget regarding foreign investment.
The government confirmed a new fee structure in tonight’s Budget, which will apply to all proposed purchases of residential real estate by foreign investors.

Investors will have to pay a $5,000 application fee for properties valued at less than $1 million.

Properties valued above $1 million will attract a base fee of $10,000 plus an incremental increase of $10,000 for each additional $1 million in value.

The government also revealed tonight that it will create a comprehensive land register to “provide for greater scrutiny and transparency around the level of foreign ownership in Australian agricultural land and real estate”.

Another measure announced tonight is that the Australian Taxation Office will have a role to play in the government’s strengthening of the foreign investment framework.

“The ATO will be given responsibility for regulating foreign investment in residential real estate, including stronger enforcement, audit and compliance of the existing rules,” the Budget revealed.
