Imagine if you invested in Byron Bay twenty years ago?

Did you know that Byron Bay is Australia's most expensive property market? It has averaged over 10% growth for the past twenty years. The median house price has grown from $140,000 in 1998 to over $2,700,000 today. Wouldn't it have been great to buy a house in Byron Bay back then, before all the cashed-up buyers moved into town!

We believe a similar opportunity exists right now.

South West Rocks is a stunning coastal village located half way between Sydney and Brisbane. It is a hidden gem with a small population of just over 5,000 people with a high percentage being retirees.  

While much of the village is quite dated, that is all about to change. Luxury apartments have started to be built and tens of millions of dollars are pouring into town. This will provide a massive increase in exposure.

Just like Byron Bay evolved from a surfing village into an international destination over the last 20 years, South West Rocks is about to embark on a similar journey.  New waves of people will be drawn to its pristine beaches, combined with perfect climate, desirable tourism attractions, easy accessibility with Port Macquarie's Airport 45 minutes down the road.
 
For property investors the remaining land supply is extremely limited. It is surrounded by physical boundaries with the ocean, national parks, wetlands and the Macleay River.  Even before COVID there was a huge movement underway with people relocating to lifestyle regions.  That has now shifted into overdrive and there has never been so many people wanting to escape out of Sydney and Melbourne to a sea or tree change location.

As at the time of writing this information, there are no 4-bedroom properties available for rent in the entire township of South West Rocks. So the vacancy rate is well below 1%!

With very limited land supply left in this amazing location, the window of opportunity to invest at this price will soon disappear.

Introducing The Palms Estate, Cairns - The Northern Beach's Premier Address

By Peter Gordon • April 26, 2023

Quiet simply, the Palms is the place to buy!

The northern beaches of Cairns is the Nation's best location for property investors right now, and The Palms is the premier development in this boom region.

It has the best location being elevated and backing onto the rainforest. It will have amazing facilities with a shopping village, a primary school, parks and green open space, a water park and an expanse of wildlife corridors.

It has taken the developers three years to get planning approval for this unique development to be able to hit the market. There are only 300 lots spread across 85 acres of the best land in The Northern Beaches.  Residents will have an abundance of open space right at their doorstep.  The Palms is also the only Certified Enviro Development project in Far North Queensland.

In the rivalry between Sydney and Melbourne, the winner is ... Brisbane

By Peter Gordon • April 20, 2023

Sydneysiders and Melburnians, put aside your equally outstanding flat whites for a moment. Stop bickering about whether great beaches beat cool laneways (they do) and desist from debating whether all baristas require waxed moustaches (ideally).

Because Brisbane is closing in on the title of Australia’s best city, and we must join forces to keep this subtropical upstart in its place.

Time  magazine recently named Brisvegas on its “World’s Greatest Places” list, and omitted our cities. It’s a huge shock (and who knew they still published Time  magazine?). But they might be onto something.

Time  points to the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games, which will be hosted in the maroon metropolis. Brisbane will do a fine job, even though it’ll baffle the world when rugby league is added to the schedule and Queensland is allowed to field its own team.

Time’s  most radical claim is that Brisbane is worth visiting now, but tourism is surging. Not only did Lin-Manuel Miranda recently drop in to catch Hamilton , but hundreds of Hamilfans flew up to watch his interview with Leigh Sales (presumably unaware that it would subsequently arrive on iView for free).

Incredible Lifestyle At An Affordable Price  Equity of approx $390K on completion

By Peter Gordon • April 6, 2023
This small duplex development just a short drive from Hervey Bay on Queensland’s beautiful Fraser Coast, offers an incredible lifestyle at an affordable price. With unprecedented demand and very limited supply, prices look set to skyrocket.

A leading local agent has appraised each side of these duplex's to be worth $665k on completion and rent for $495 per week. So that is massive potentail instant equity of up to $390K on completion, which is incredibly hard to find.
