THE SUN-HERALD SUNDAY, MARCH 1, 2015 3 Riding on a wave of confidence Seven property experts predict another bumper year. SOLID GROWTH AHEAD Dr Andrew Wilson There is really no sign of the market slowing down this year. It has rolled into 2015 on an almost unprecedented wave of confidence. The median house price increased by 14 per cent last year, which was just down a little bit on 2013 result of 15.4 per cent. We haven’t witnessed this type of prices growth or energy in the market since 2002-03, which was one of the strongest periods in Sydney’s history. It is definitively a boom market. I believe the market will rise 7 to 10 per cent this year with 7 per cent being a base figure and the risks certainly on the upside. A lot of the growth will continue to come from changeover buyers in the upper north shore, north-west and the inner west. Dr Andrew Wilson is senior economist for Domain Group GROWTH COULD HEAD EAST Lisa Bradley The median price of Sydney houses is now more than 30 per cent higher than two years ago, with 2014 growth nearly matching that of 2013. I expect further but less spectacular growth this year of about 9 per cent. Prices are increasing faster than household incomes and rents, which will eventually rein in young buyers and investors. The inner west shows no sign of cooling and will continue to attract the widest range of buyers though the east may outperform it for the first time in many years. Lisa Bradley is a buyers’ agent and director of Finders Keepers BULLISH ON THE YEAR AHEAD Louis Christopher We think it’s going to be yet another bullish year in the Sydney housing market. Our forecast for Sydney for the year ahead is 8 to 12 per cent. I see no reason why it is going to go lower than 8 per cent. If anything, it could end up being at the upper end of our range. The growth is going to be still a little bit uneven. There have been some regions in Sydney which have not participated in this upturn and that’s been those localities where you have a disproportionate number of properties in the $2 million-plus range, and the northern beaches. It’s hard to call but you may see a bit of a catch up play for some regions. Louis Christopher is the managing director of SQM Research Mandalay, in Point Piper, may sell for about $40 million. Photo: Ben Rushton LOW RATES UNPIN GROWTH Dr Shane Oliver Harry Triguboff is the managing director of the Meriton Group On average I’d see dwelling prices in Sydney slowing to about to 7 to 8 per cent. In an environment where inflation is running at about 2 per cent that’s a real gain of 5-6 per cent – a pretty decent rise. I’d see houses in the 6 to 7 per cent range and units 8 to 9 per cent. Affordability has deteriorated and that will cause some buyers to be a bit more cautious. On top of that the prudential regulator is looking more closely at banks who aggressively grow their investment lending books. But interest rates remain low and historically it’s only been when interest rates rise and rise to levels that start to become a bit onerous that the property market turns down. Dr Shane Oliver is the head of investment strategy and chief economist at AMP Capital DEMAND STRONGEST IN INNER CITY Robert De Iure POPULATION GROWTH A KEY DRIVER Harry Triguboff We have never had as many sales as we have now. The exciting thing for the year ahead is how the ‘‘cheaper’’ suburbs are going to increase in value. We saw it in the western suburbs close to the city; now, we believe it will occur in other suburbs that may not be as close. Interest rates coming down will help – and rents have started to move up, which is very healthy for the market. There are two reasons rental yields are going up: one, the population is increasing, more than may be officially reported if you take into account temporary residents, students and skilled migrant workers. Two, our standard of living is improving. If you look back 10 years, students were a core part of my business – today, it’s professionals who can afford to pay more. Housing market sentiment in NSW remains sound. Property professionals surveyed in NAB’s most recent Residential Property Survey expect demand for existing property in NSW to be ‘‘very good’’ across all types and locations over the next year, with demand strongest for inner city houses and CBD apartments. The NSW state property index (based on expectations for capital growth and rents) is now highest in the country. According to the survey, Sydney capital growth is forecast at 4.7 per cent to the end of 2015. NAB Economics sees house price growth moderating because of rising unemployment, sluggish household income growth, affordability concerns, cost of living pressures and high levels of household debt. That said, we see NSW as one of the stronger performers over the next two years. Robert De Iure is the NAB’s senior economist, industry analysis FIRST HOME BUYERS TO REAPPEAR John McGrath Property is going to have a good couple of years. Based on the fact we’ve had a quarter of a per cent interest rate drop, growth will be somewhere close to 7 to 8 per cent this 12-month period. We’ll start to see first home buyers come back into the market in the next 12 months with the lower interest rates, too. The only potential negative on the horizon is if we get ahead of ourselves and we see doubledigit growth. That would require a correction.

Confidence in the Sydney housing market is at peak levels and is expected to drive further solid prices growth this year. Prices are now up nearly 30 per cent over two years, and some suburbs grew by more than 30 per cent in the past 12 months alone. ‘‘There is really no sign of the market slowing down,’’ says Andrew Wilson, senior economist for the Domain Group. ‘‘Generally most areas last year were quite strong but the hotspots were certainly the north-west, the Hills district and some areas in the inner west.’’ The surge in prices may have created some cashed-up vendors, including, as Leanne Pilkington, general manager of Laing+Simmons, says ‘‘a lot of very rich chicken farmers’’ in the north-west where development blocks have been keenly sought after. But the growth was not unexpected. ‘‘The Sydney market [was] weak for so long and there is still a lot of pent-up demand that has been working its way through,’’ says Angie Zigomanis, senior manager of residential property at economic forecaster BIS Shrapnel. It’s a sentiment that rings true with John McGrath, founder and chief executive of McGrath Estate Agents. He says the past two years started off with 12 months of catch up followed by some overdue growth. It could grow again this year by about 7 or 8 per cent, he says. Similarly, Zigomanis is predicting growth of 5 to 10 per cent this year for Sydney. However, he admits, strong sentiment could push prices even higher. Either way, Wilson says there are ‘‘no signs of the market overshooting itself’’ despite concerns over the high proportion of investors. ‘‘Last year it was the changeover-buyer Best performing Worst performing Suburb Suburb YoY This year change forecast Queenscliff >25% Colebee >25% Kirribilli >25% Elizabeth Hills >25% Canada Bay >25% Warwick Farm >25% Homebush >25% Cabarita >25% Kensington >25% Windsor Downs >25% 7% 12% 10% 12% 15% 12% 15% 15% 8% 12% areas in the upper north shore, the northwest and the inner west that had the strongest prices growth,’’ he says. ‘‘It wasn’t really an investor story, it was a changeover-buyer story last year.’’ Dr Wilson is forecasting growth of 7 to 10 per cent this year for overall Sydney prices. ‘‘That will bring the median house price in Sydney to well over $900,000,’’ he says. ‘‘That’s quite extraordinary because that will represent, over a four-year period, a more than $300,000 increase in the median house price.’’ One of the factors underpinning demand is population growth. Last year more than 70,000 migrants flooded into NSW and the majority headed for Sydney. Yet there were only 1700 extra dwellings approved in the state’s capital over the same time period, says Wilson. ‘‘That’s why prices continue to grow, there is a chronic undersupply of houses in Sydney,’’ he says.

On top of that, fewer NSW residents are shifting interstate as job prospects dwindle in the resources regions. INVESTORS ‘‘There are no signs of investors losing their love affair with the Sydney housing market,’’ says Wilson. ‘‘Investor activity in NSW now makes up 48 per cent of all investor activity nationally, which is quite unprecedented.’’ AMP Capital chief economist Shane Oliver says one of the reasons investors will stick with property for now is they’ve got few other places to go. ‘‘Bank deposit rates are now around about 2.5 to 3 per cent. ‘‘Five years ago Westpac had a deal where they would give you 8 per cent for five years. DOMAIN PROPERTY GUIDE [For those people] time’s up and they have got to reinvest it somewhere.’’ Zigomanis also sees investors active again this year. ‘‘They’ve been in the market great guns and as long as there’s the expectation of the capital gain in the Sydney market they’ll keep going,’’ he says. PRESTIGE PROPERTY It has been one of the flat spots of the market and although sales of prestige property began to pick up last year, prices refused to budge. Christie’s Real Estate affiliate Ken Jacobs says activity at the top end has been the best it’s been since before the GFC. ‘‘It has been steady in the context of price but with more transactions and that’s the first step – to get increases through transactions and then price increases. ‘‘I think that it’s going to be a good year. If we can get the right stock then I think it will be a brilliant year.’’ Michael Pallier, the principal of Sydney Sotheby’s International Realty, says with alltime low interest rates and a dollar that has devalued rapidly in the past 12 months, it’s a perfect storm for prestige property. Thanks to the lower currency, expats coming from overseas are getting the equivalent of a 25 per cent reduction on what they were paying 18 months ago, says Pallier. ‘‘On a $10 million house they are saving $2.5 million,’’ he says. It certainly sounds promising but Jacobs is having trouble convincing owners to sell – many of those who held off during the GFC for fear of being stuck with a low price still haven’t come forth. ‘‘I thought there would be more people of that ilk coming into the market or bringing their properties to the market,’’ Jacobs says. Factors weighing on the top end include the lacklustre stock market and businesses’ restrained spending. Executives aren’t enjoying as much ‘‘cream and bubble and froth on top of their salary income’’ and therefore don’t have the spare cash to splurge, says Zigomanis. ‘‘For the most part the Australian economy THE SUN-HERALD SUNDAY, MARCH 1, 2015 5 The more room the merrier for young house hunters Slim pickings: Lilyfield residents Sandra and Richard Valente with their son Jackson. Photo: Steven Siewert is still doing it pretty tough. Businesses are still in cost containment mode,’’ he says. FIRST-HOME BUYERS While it remains a ‘‘very tough ask for firsthome buyers’’ to crack the Sydney market, they have been trickling back over the past year, says Wilson. However, first-home buyers remain at ‘‘a very low level as a proportion of the market’’. ‘‘There is no doubt that the incentive for home ownership is still there and is probably stronger now with prices growth and higher rents,’’ he says. ‘‘It is just tougher to save that deposit to get into the marketplace and it means that there is a longer wait in the queue.’’ Sandra and Richard Valente know they’re in for a tough time house hunting in the inner west. Mainly because they want what nearly every other young family also desires. Three bedrooms. Maybe four. A block of 300 or 400 square metres. Parking. And a solid family home with most of the really hard yards of renovating already done. The Valentes and their one-year-old son are looking around Annandale, Lilyfield and Leichhardt and have a budget of $1.7 million or less. The couple are lucky that they already have a home – a townhouse they bought in Lilyfield about eight years ago before a stint of living overseas in Japan and Singapore. However, they are finding their townhouse too small for a growing family. McGrath says his network of agencies didn’t see many first home buyers last year but the tide could finally be turning. ‘‘I think we’ll start to see first-home buyers come back into the market in the next 12 months with the lower interest rates,’’ he says. BIS Shrapnel’s Zigomanis says there is a hidden crossover between first home buyers and investors. ‘‘People are increasingly choosing to buy where they want to live down the track and are renting [the property out] for a few years to subsidise the purchase,’’ he says. UPGRADERS/DOWNSIZERS Upgrader activity has been ‘‘rising pretty ‘‘We’ve got a young boy and he needs his space,’’ says Sandra, who has a background in marketing. The Valentes started looking for a bigger property about two-and-a-half years ago when they returned from overseas. ‘‘In hindsight we probably should have just bought,’’ says Sandra. ‘‘Prices have just inflated . . . and the interest rate cut hasn’t helped us either because obviously people are prepared to borrow a lot more [now].’’ The family has bid at auctions but has been narrowly beaten several times. ‘‘Most of the auctions have gotten down to us and another person, we just had to pull out at some point,’’ says Sandra. ‘‘It’s been really frustrating.’’ The family hasn’t given up hope though, and is still looking. They’re hoping 2015 will be their lucky year. strongly so far’’, says Zigomanis. ‘‘The upgraders are more confident that they can sell their home and use that finance for the next home,’’ he says. ‘‘A lot of the pent-up demand for upgraders is probably working its way through now.’’ The increasing prices are also encouraging more downsizers, says Zigomanis. ‘‘It is a growing part of the market,’’ he says. If interest rate cuts keep house prices on the boil as expected, it should coax more empty nesters ‘‘who have been sitting on their hands since the GFC’’ to sell their homes and take the opportunity to boost their retirement savings, says Angus Raine chief executive of Raine &Horne. 1HERSA1 0005 6 SUNDAY, MARCH 1, 2015 THE SUN-HERALD DOMAIN PROPERTY GUIDE Apartments preview PRICE GROWTH 2014 & PREDICTIONS APARTMENTS A growing love affair with life in the block Sydney apartments are still in hot demand, as young professionals and downsizers seek convenient inner-city living. Sydney unit prices jumped 10.4 per cent last year, defying expectations that an influx of new stock would slow capital gains. The result was in line with the 10.9 per cent growth seen over 2013. As unit living becomes more popular, prices and rents for apartments and houses are edging closer to each other. ‘‘The gap between units and houses is smaller than it ever has been and that is right across the board,’’ says John McGrath, chief executive of McGrath Estate Agents. Developers have been rushing to meet the increased demand and in inner Sydney alone 11,500 apartments are planned for completion over the next three years, figures from economic forecaster BIS Shrapnel show. The surge in supply has led to concerns of an impending glut. But Andrew Wilson, senior economist for the Domain Group, argues there is ‘‘too much pent-up demand’’ for an oversupply to emerge and even all of the new units being built ‘‘will not be enough to keep up with family formation and household formation and the migration rate’’. Investors have been particularly keen on apartments, and this year a higher proportion of owner-occupiers are expected to consider buying an apartment over a house. ‘‘There are a number of reasons for that,’’ Wilson says. ‘‘It is not just affordability but people looking at different lifestyles that are preferably in the city with a smaller footprint.’’ Wilson says the number of apartments approved for development fell from 2013 to 2014. ‘‘It will be interesting to see whether that trend picks up again this year,’’ he says. ‘‘The government has certainly been very proactive in ensuring that development or supply can start to match underlying demand.’’ BANKSTOWN M FRO 9K $43 Best performing Worst performing Suburb Suburb YoY This year change forecast Beecroft Rydalmere Palm Beach Kingswood Curl Curl The Rocks Tamarama St Peters Ingleburn Mortlake >25% >25% >25% >25% >25% >25% >25% >25% >25% >25% 8% 5% 8% 10% 8% 10% 10% 5% 8% 5% YoY This year change forecast Point Piper <-25% Sylvania <-25% Allambie Heights -24% Toongabbie 17% Punchbowl -17% Rooty Hill -14% Seaforth -9% St Marys -9% Belrose -6% Gregory Hills -6% 5% 5% 8% 6% 6% 5% 5% 5% 6% 6% SOURCE: DOMAIN GROUP One factor that could affect developers’ willingness to keep building more apartments is rising input costs. ‘‘There’s a lot of pressure in building costs,’’ says David Milton, managing director of CBRE residential projects. ‘‘All the builders that we speak to are saying that building costs are going up at least 10 per cent and what happens is either developments aren’t feasible, they are not built so supply slows, or that price increase will flow through [to buyers].’’ Angie Zigomanis, senior manager of residential property at BIS Shrapnel, says the large number of projects coming online may not be affecting prices but are impacting the time it takes for bigger projects to sell out. Milton concurs that this is the case. ‘‘It’s come off the busy heights of everything selling out on a weekend,’’ he says. ‘‘There’s still very strong pre-sales there but it is a more normal market.’’ The fundamentals – the number of buyers, rental vacancy rates and rental prices – remain solid though and Milton is confident of another robust year for apartment sales. ‘‘It is a very strong market and it is strong because Sydney is still critically undersupplied for stock,’’ he says. Zigomanis is predicting Sydney apartment prices will rise by 3 to 7 per cent this year. ‘‘There is pent-up demand there still so [new apartments will] fairly readily fill up and probably over the next 12 months that will still be the case,’’ Zigomanis says. ‘‘Beyond the next 12 months as the current round of projects are starting to be completed you might find there’s pressure on rents [in locations] where there are a lot of apartments being built.’’ Council re-zonings to allow higher densities will start to broaden the options for apartment buyers across the wider metropolitan area, says Raine & Horne chief executive Angus Raine. ‘‘As an example, Penrith Council recently re-zoned to allow for construction BAULKHAM HILLS M FRO 9K $54 NOW SELLING: A selection of Sydney’s best new apartments 1HERSA1 0006 DOMAIN PROPERTY GUIDE of up to six storeys in the town centre,’’ he says. Infrastructure developments will determine where some of these apartments are built. ‘‘Already the markets between the Roseville Bridge and the northern beaches have responded to the news that the construction of the state-of-the art Northern Beaches Hospital is under way, while the new South West Rail Link and the pending North West Rail Link are similarly spurring buyer activity in the areas surrounding these developments,’’ Raine says. He is tipping capital growth of 10 per cent for the overall Sydney apartment market this year. ‘‘In some markets, returns might be a little higher than this,’’ Raine says. CBRE’s Milton says about half of his businesses’ sales over the past two years were to investors and he’s expecting that to continue through 2015. ‘‘I haven’t seen anything change or increase, it is going to be very much the same [this year],’’ he says. Chief economist at AMP Capital, Shane Oliver, says investors often favour units as they offer better rental yields. ‘‘They tend to be smaller outlays initially, they’re easier to rent out and you get less downtime,’’ he says. OWNER-OCCUPIERS This year BIS Shrapnel’s Zigomanis is expecting to see more owner-occupiers buying established apartments. ‘‘There’s a generation of millennials and Gen Ys who have been driving the rental market for the past few years, the oldest of them are getting well into their 30s now and are probably at that stage where they want to settle down or are starting to settle down,’’ Zigomanis says. ‘‘They have grown used to living a lifestyle close to the city or close to the action. They don’t necessarily want to move much further out.’’ Oliver says first home buyer demand is likely to pick up this year, particularly on the back of interest rate cuts. They are likely to be buying units and their return could give the ASHFIELD M FRO 0K $55 THE SUN-HERALD SUNDAY, MARCH 1, 2015 7 Compromise the key in property hunt Future secured: Paul Jelfs bought a unit in Alexandria. Photo: Dallas Kilponen unit prices ‘‘a slight edge over the housing market this year’’, says Oliver. Milton agrees: ‘‘We are finding there’s a continuing trend of young couples, young professionals, preferring to live in an apartment with good conveniences as opposed to a house that involves a lot of commuting to work, so inner-city areas have gotten stronger and stronger.’’ Buyers are also favouring suburbs with good transport links such as Rhodes, Mead- Nearing retirement age and wanting to secure his future, Paul Jelfs decided now was the time to buy. The primary school teacher rents in Bondi Junction, where the median apartment price is $770,000, but knew he would need to look elsewhere. ‘‘Who can afford to buy anything in Bondi Junction? It is outrageous,’’ he says. Jelfs spent a lot of time researching the market – reading all he could about buying property and talking with friends in related industries. He wanted to be close to Surry Hills where he works, or at least on good transport links. ‘‘I didn’t want to commute for too long,’’ he says. ‘‘I wasn’t prepared to spend an hour on the train or other transport to get to work when I could do it in half an hour on a bicycle or 25 minutes in a car if I had to.’’ Jelfs received an inheritance last year and had been ‘‘madly saving’’ the rest. He looked at Redfern and Erskineville – and also considered North Parramatta for its good transport owbank, Ryde and Epping, says Milton. ‘‘Where transport options are limited and there is reasonable supply, I think there will be very little growth,’’ he says. UPGRADERS/DOWNSIZERS Developers with small boutique apartments could be in for a windfall this year, says Milton. ‘‘There are now a lot more retirees and empty nesters looking to sell their homes and links and relative affordablilty. The median unit price in North Parramatta is $475,000, after rising 20 per cent last year. In January, Jelfs bought a unit via private treaty on the border of Erskineville and Alexandria for $473,000 through Poh Ling Ee of Ee Real Estate. It was just below his budget of $480,000. ‘‘I really wanted a two-bedroom apartment with a lock-up garage,’’ he says. Instead Jelfs has purchased a onebedroom unit with a ‘‘tiny balcony’’. It does have parking though. ‘‘It is close to public transport, it’s got a nice lifestyle and the area is really green and gentrified. Walking around Alexandria around that golden triangle, it’s beautiful,’’ says Jelfs. ‘‘I looked at what I wanted, what I needed and what I was prepared to compromise on.’’ Jelfs plans to continue renting in Bondi Junction for as long as he can and, for now, will rent out his Alexandria unit to help cover the mortgage. find quality accommodation,’’ he says. ‘‘And there is a really limited supply of new small boutique developments coming on to the market in already established areas. I think that higher end of the market is going to outperform a lot of other areas.’’ Milton is tipping prices growth of 5 to 7 per cent in the middle ring to outer ring of Sydney and expects prices for boutique properties in more established suburbs to rise 7 to 10 per cent.

It was so hot that when agent Adam Vernon, of Vernon Partners, put a three-bedroom duplex on the market in Cremorne, he was forced to pull the auction forward by two weeks. ‘‘The market has come out very strong,’’ says Vernon, who sold the renovated duplex at 1/6 Ellalong Road at auction for $1,517,500. ‘‘People are very positive about the economy despite what you hear on the news,’’ Vernon says. ‘‘The low interest rates and confidence are going to drive the market.’’ Buyers are taking the chance to trade up and fix their mortgages for up to five years while interest rates are so low, Vernon says. And investors are still showing keen interest in the lower north shore, he adds. ‘‘We’re still seeing a huge amount of investors and self-managed super funds looking for units, that hasn’t changed at all. It has been like that for two years,’’ he says. In some good news for buyers, Vernon predicts the strong market on the lower north shore – where median house prices rose in nearly every suburb, and some by more than 25 per cent – could bring on a rush of vendors. ‘‘They all heard how great it was last year so they are getting ready to sell this year. I think there will be a bit of an oversupply of stock,’’ Vernon says. It could happen as soon as this month and if it does, will help to ease price pressures, which in turn could spur along more interest from buyers. Andy Yeung, an agent with Ray White Willoughby, is predicting strong market momentum this year but is not convinced that there’ll an oversupply of stock. In fact, quite the opposite. ‘‘We are going to be more undersupplied,’’ he says. Yeung is still seeing strong interest from Chinese buyers and says about 80 per cent of his purchasers in the Chatswood area are of Asian origin. However, many are actually long-term local residents. At the upper end of the market, Michael Coombs of McGrath Lower North Shore, is struggling to fill buyer demand. ‘‘We have quite a few buyers between $5 million and $20 million who haven’t been • Stunning 1,2 & 3 bedroom designer apartments from $545,000 • Spectacular panoramic views Keen interest: This renovated duplex in Cremorne sold for $1,517,500. able to find a property,’’ he says. ‘‘Most of them are quite ready to buy.’’ At Mosman, LJ Hooker’s Richard Harding has had an influx of inquires from overseas since the dollar dropped. ‘‘If the dollar keeps floating south, we see that expat market as becoming extremely strong,’’ he says. It would be a welcome turnaround for the lower north shore prestige market. Last year sales volumes of top-end properties increased but prices growth paled against that of more affordable segments, says the senior economist for the Domain Group, Andrew Wilson. Close to the Harbour Bridge, Duncan Grady, the owner of Raine & Horne North Sydney, is desperately hoping more vendors will decide to sell. Grady believes vendors are sitting back wondering if prices will improve further. He cautions that it will be a ‘‘steady as she goes’’ year for values, though. • Stunning rooftop entertaining area • Unrivalled design, superb interiors and quality European fixtures including DeLonghi appliances and Villeroy and Boch toilet suites ‘‘I think we’ve had the growth that we’re going to get in-so-far as non-trend spikes of those sharp 10 and 15 per cent increases,’’ he says. The flood of new apartments expected to come online in North Sydney over the next few years could inject some welcome vigour into the area, Grady says. New residents are likely to be young people wanting more shops, cafes and restaurants to open at later hours. The additional apartments could place further pressure on rents, though. Grady says that while vacancy rates remain low in North Sydney, the rental market ‘‘is far better value for money now than it has been for a number of years’’. ‘‘When tenants are vacating, we’re tending to re-let at the same rental. In some circumstances there have even been small drops,’’ Grady says.

Driving the growth were upgraders in the $1 million to $2 million range and agents are already reporting that 2015 is looking to be a similarly good year. ‘‘We’ve had record numbers of open homes,’’ says Ian Clarke, principal of Belle Property Pymble, who is expecting prices to grow again this year, albeit by a much more modest 5 per cent. SQM research director Louis Christopher is much bolder with his predictions. He’s pegging a potential growth of 12 per cent for the upper north shore this year. ‘‘It was a great underperformer for a while so it was long overdue for a catch-up,’’ he says. ‘‘We certainly got that last year and I think it is going to continue this year.’’ Christopher says the upper north shore has benefited from people being squeezed out of Sydney’s inner ring. ‘‘We’re not building any more freestanding houses in Sydney’s inner ring, there are no more coming on. Those people who’d normally be looking to buy a house in Sydney’s inner ring . . . have been buying increasingly in the middle ring.’’ Belle Property’s Ian Clarke is certainly seeing interest for properties ‘‘across the board’’. ‘‘At this stage I can’t see a slowdown,’’ he says. Scott Chadwick, principal of Chadwick Real Estate, agrees. ‘‘The market seems to have come out of the blocks for 2015 much stronger compared to the end of last year,’’ he says. Clarke recently sold 1 Ganmain Road in Pymble. The five-bedroom, three-bathroom home was snapped up before its planned Valentine’s Day auction and the price – $2.6 million – was a street record. Another impressive sale was the $1.13 million achieved for 11/16 Cecil Street, in Gordon. The price of the three-bedroom, twobathroom ground floor unit was ‘‘way above average’’, says Clarke. Kate Wexler, principal of Richardson & Street record: This home at 1 Ganmain Road, Pymble, was snapped up for $2.6 million. Wrench Gordon/Pymble, sold most of her stock before Christmas and said 2015 began with pent-up demand from buyers who had been looking for – but not finding – properties over the summer break. However, stock levels are now increasing because ‘‘people want to be on the market before Easter’’, says Wexler. The lower dollar is being felt on the upper north shore through increased inquiries from Asian and expat buyers. ‘‘The Asian market is very strong – more than strong – and they are taking advantage of the low interest rates and the facilities offered on the north shore,’’ Wexler says. Interest is particularly evident around the transport hubs of Killara and Gordon. Local downsizers are another active market. ‘‘They are staying on the north shore because for them to downsize to the eastern suburbs or down the line, the prices are quite high,’’ says Wexler. But the rush for low-maintenance living is pushing up the cost of high-quality apartments, says Mark Blake, director of Luschwitz Real Estate at Pymble, especially as the oversupply of units that existed has been soaked up in recent years. ‘‘The average buyer on the North Shore is paying between $1.2 million and $1.5 million for a quality three-bedroom apartment but there are none out there [at the moment],’’ says Blake. Empty nesters who have already sold their homes and are keen to get into apartments have been pushing up auction prices ‘‘$200,000 and $300,000 over the reserve’’, says Blake. ‘‘It is crazy. There is very little stock [at the top end] and I have got some bloody good buyers.’’ Chadwick says high-end apartments are selling for about ‘‘$12,000 a metre in a market that’s traditionally seen good-quality stock selling at $9000’’.

Angus Raine, executive chairman and chief executive of Raine & Horne, says prices in suburbs such as Forestville, Frenchs Forest and Davidson have risen by 10 per cent since preliminary work started on the hospital last year. ‘‘With lower interest rates, we see no reason why this level of growth won’t continue in 2015,’’ Raine says. The 488-bed Northern Beaches Hospital is scheduled to open in 2018. Raine predicts Forestville, Frenchs Forest, Davidson and nearby Killarney Heights could produce price growth of 10 per cent or more in 2015. ‘‘This is especially the case with the state government confirming it is going ahead with a road underpass, a road widening on Warringah Road and other upgrades in support of the hospital,’’ Raine says.

Up at Avalon where house prices grew 4.2 per cent last year to $1.25 million, LJ Hooker principal David Mackay is grateful the Australian dollar has finally plummeted. ‘‘We are seeing expat buyers coming back big time,’’ Mackay says. Those calling Mackay long distance include ‘‘young fellows who haven’t been over there for long’’ who want to spend about $1 million, to the more established with budgets of $3 million to $4 million. ‘‘There’s no particular type of property [that they’re seeking],’’ he says. ‘‘What they are trying to do is get their money into good-quality real estate whether it be in Double Bay, Mosman or the northern beaches.’’ At Manly, Michael Clarke, principal of Clarke & Humel, is quietly confident that upgraders might also push along the prestige market as prices ripple up from the bottom.

Two-bedroom units start from a smidgen under $500,000. And one-bedroom units have been on fire. ‘‘Anybody who bought a one-bedroom unit say 12-18 months ago has probably gained $100,000 in value,’’ Read says. A recent sale Read negotiated in Dee Why was 11/55 Delmar Parade. The two-bedroom, one-bathroom unit with parking for one car and 85 square metres of living including the balcony sold for $665,000. The vendor had bought the property in 2010 for $578,000 and had been hoping to achieve $650,000. The median unit price in Dee Why grew 11 per cent last year to $594,000.

Across the northern beaches region house prices grew 10 per cent and apartments 14.8 per cent last year, says Dr Andrew Wilson, the senior economist for the Domain Group. ‘‘Even though [the northern beaches] did record a quite healthy prices growth it wasn’t at the same level as the budget areas or the mid-price range areas,’’ says Wilson. However, it was somewhat of a two-speed market as the lacklustre prestige segment masked the popularity of properties priced under $2 million. One of the cheaper areas to do well though was the Dee Why unit market, which continued to attract investors and a smattering of first home buyers – although they ‘‘were a little bit skinny on the ground’’, says Dr Wilson.

Ben Jobberns, director of the Hills district agency Guardian Realty, says there is ‘‘a buzz in the market at the moment’’. ‘‘The last 12 months was the biggest year our company has had to date. People want to buy property, they want to get into the marketplace,’’ he says. ‘‘We are seeing record numbers of people attending open homes. There is competition at almost every corner.’’ The low interest rates are part of what Jobberns describes as a ‘‘melting pot’’ of factors that also include a lack of stock and a concern among some buyers that they could be priced out. Laing+Simmons Pennant Hills principal Chris Khoudair is already seeing an impact from the most recent rate cut. He says he noticed an immediate spike in inquiries after the rate cut was announced as buyers reviewed their budgets upwards. Dr Andrew Wilson, the senior economist at the Domain Group, says growth won’t hit the 20 per cent-plus mark of last year but could invest still reach 10-12 per cent. ‘‘That is still a very, very good result,’’ he says. Similarly, Louis Christopher, director of SQM Research, has an ‘‘outperform’’ rating on the north-west. ‘‘We’re getting closer and closer to the completion of the north-west rail link,’’ he says. New railway lines generally cause an area to see rapid price growth and ‘‘that outperformance occurs before the completion and occurs immediately after the completion’’ of the railway line. Christopher says areas along the new transport link, including Castle Hill and Cherrybrook, should do particularly well. There is activity at all levels of the market. Jobberns says the prestige end is definitely on the march. ‘‘We’ve sold more property in the last six months between $2.5 million and $3 million than we did in the last three years or more,’’ he says. In February Guardian Realty handled the sale of 5 Amaroo Park in Annangrove for $3,050,000. ‘‘Previously the record price for that suburb had been $2,670,000 and that was now 1, 2, 3 bed Apartments Starting from $470,000 Prestige buzz: After four offers and just over two weeks on the market, 5 Amaroo Park Drive Annangrove sold for $3,050,000 in February. achieved back in 2006,’’ says Jobberns. The deal was sealed after just two-and-a-half weeks on the market and four offers. The modern country-style home on 3.6 hectares last sold in 1999 for $430,000. It has five bedrooms, six bathrooms, a garage for four cars and a cellar. McGrath Epping agent Betty Ockerlander sells mostly established houses and says the higher prices have dampened some new homeowners’ plans. ‘‘A lot of people that had gone out and initially said ‘I want to pull this down’ ended up having to say, ‘I have got to live in it for maybe three, four, five years’, until they get their mortgage down enough to build,’’ she says. Other buyers have decided to move out and rent while keeping their purchase as an investment property. Nevertheless, Ockerlander is seeing an influx of Chinese buyers, many of them moving from Hurstville when their eldest child is about four in preparation for starting school. She says buyers of Chinese origin are not usually concerned about the style of house, only whether it was in the catchment zone of their preferred school. ‘‘Most people are coming over here because of Epping West Public School and because of the Macquarie Business Park,’’ she says. Ockerlander is predicting a year of steady sales. ‘‘I don’t think it’s going to be booming as much as last year but I think it might be more like 2011 and 2012 where we could flatten out a little bit. But we won’t go down . . . not in our area, anyway,’’ she says. Laing+Simmons general manager Leanne Pilkington says an increase in the number of properties on the market will have a ‘‘settling effect’’ but good supply could take six months or so to come through.

Domain Group senior economist Dr Andrew Wilson says 2014 was a mixed year for property markets in the city and the eastern areas. ‘‘Volumes were certainly up, there were a lot more trophy homes sold but price rises were nowhere near the middle and budgetpriced suburbs,’’ Wilson says. Domain Group says the median house price in the region grew 7.8 per cent. The apartment median went up 11.9 per cent. Price growth this year could continue to be outshone by other areas of Sydney. Wilson says 2015 could yield 5 per cent price increases for the region, noting that it ‘‘still doesn’t have the energy’’ it once had, particularly before the global financial crisis. While the market for properties under $2 million has been strong in the east over the last couple of years, there hasn’t yet been ‘‘any significant shift in pricing in the $3 million-plus range’’, seasoned McGrath agent Ben Collier says. Buyers are seemingly stalling at the $2 million price point. However, that could present an opportunity for savvy purchasers to step up into a higher quality property without having to spend too much more, says Louis Christopher, director of SQM Research. ‘‘Properties just under $2 million have clearly outperformed those just over $2 million,’’ he says. ‘‘So there is quite a distortion in the market between price and quality in those two price gaps. I think what we are going to see is more and more buyers realising this and going ahead and spending just a little bit more money to go and buy those $2 million-plus properties, which seem to be more fairly valued compared to properties just underneath them.’’ In some positive news for vendors, Ben Collier is seeing green shoots for the prestige market. ‘‘Right now there seems to be significantly more activity in terms of buyer inquiry in the Live by the National Park. On Sydney Harbour. In Manly. 1HERSA1 N022 Quirky: This studio with garage at 23/3A Farrell Avenue, Darlinghurst, sold for $605,000. $3 million-plus range, up to $15 million,’’ Collier says. ‘‘As the dollar goes down we’ve seen a big shift in inquiry from offshore expatriate buyers. Whether that manifests into a shift upwards or puts pressure on prices . . . remains to be seen.’’ Shannan Whitney, director of BresicWhitney, says he is yet to see any clear evidence of increased activity or results in the prestige end but is tipping there could be a rapid improvement just around the corner. ‘‘There certainly seems to be a lot of positivity towards that part of the market,’’ he says. One driver for more transactions at the cheaper end has been investors taking advantage of cheap finance and the large capital gains they’ve been blessed with over the past two years to refinance their current properties and buy further investments. However, activity and enthusiasm across city and east remains patchy. In Darlinghurst, where Domain Group figures reveal house prices soared 19.1 per cent last year but unit prices were flat, Daniel Baran, director of The Agency at Double Bay, says the suburb is ‘‘going berserk’’. Earlier this year Baran sold a quirky, freestanding studio terrace with a garage on the bottom level and a small studio upstairs at 23/3A Farrell Avenue in Darlinghurst for $605,000. The property was snapped up before auction and had previously changed hands in 2009 for $315,000. In the intervening years it had received a lick of paint and some minor renovations. In Redfern and Surry Hills, where house and unit prices jumped more 15 per cent last year, Charles Touma, principal of Belle Property Surry Hills, says that buyers’ sense of urgency appears to have cooled. ‘‘Some of the steam went out of the market in November/December as more stock came online and buyers started realising that after such dramatic growth over the past two years, prices were unlikely to keep surging forward,’’ he says. The cut in interest rates could ‘‘stimulate the market a bit’’.

Dr Andrew Wilson, the senior economist of the Domain Group, predicts the buying action might edge towards the fringes though as buyers seek better affordability. He says the inner west was a ‘‘boom’’ area last year achieving stellar prices growth approaching 20 per cent. ‘‘It has its own inner suburban buzz about it and people like that cosmopolitan lifestyle,’’ Wilson says. ‘‘We are seeing the emergence of some real prestige suburbs such as Balmain East and Strathfield, which are bringing quite significant prices.’’ The median price in Balmain East is now $1,965,000, thanks to growth of 7.4 per cent last year. Strathfield has a median of $1.72 milllion up 17 per cent from $1.47 million a year ago, Domain Group figures reveal. Some experts believe the growth is starting to push prices towards their limits. Louis Christopher, director of SQM Research, says the inner west is looking ‘‘fully priced’’ now after two years of strong performance. ‘‘I wouldn’t be surprised if we saw a little bit of underperformance in Sydney’s inner west but it will be fairly marginal and I think overall it will probably perform in line with the Sydney-wide average.’’ Since Christmas, a pool of buyers who missed out on securing a property last year have helped to kick along the inner west market. Ray White Glebe sales director Michael Cipriani says there has been ‘‘floods of buyers’’ looking for properties while McGrath partner Shad Hassen says many people are trying to buy something sooner rather than later in case the already hot market further ignites. Agent Poh Ling Ee, principal of Ee Real Estate, recently took 83 Bedford Street in Newtown to auction, where it sold for $1.015 million. The run-down three-bedroom terrace was on 197 square metres. The last time it changed hands was in 2001 for $398,000. Its neighbour at 81 Bedford was sold by Ee about 16 months ago for $850,000 and was on a bigger 230-square-metre block. Rising interest: This run-down three-bedroom terrace at 83 Bedford Street, Newtown, sold at auction for $1,015,000. ‘‘When I sold 81 Bedford . . . I was lucky to get six people at each open house and only had one registered bidder,’’ says Ee. ‘‘This time around, with number 83, everybody came up, big time. I got so many inquiries that I had to open the week before. I had 37 groups through the first time and I issued 25 contracts.’’ In Balmain and Annandale, a steady flow of buyers continue to come from the eastern suburbs, says Belle Property Annandale principal Rob Clarke. And around Strathfield, Concord, Drummoyne, Russell Lea and Rodd Point Devine Real Estate director Steven Devine says buying older homes for their land value is enticing buyers. MASCOT 1HERSA1 N026 So where should buyers head? Domain’s Wilson says look to the fringes where gentrification is still occurring. And McGrath chief executive John McGrath names Summer Hill, Petersham and Stanmore as areas that, while hardly undiscovered and not exactly cheap, continue to offer fair value. Units could also begin to present an opportunity as newly built stock starts to come online and supply increases. Devine says demand for units may have already steadied. ‘‘Twelve months ago we were being smashed with inquiries on units and that has sort of plateaued or levelled off a little bit and created a more stable market, which is good from a buyer’s perspective.’’ Carolyn Boyd 28 SUNDAY, MARCH 1, 2015 THE SUN-HERALD DOMAIN PROPERTY GUIDE Inner west ABBOTSFORD RANK 92 ANNANDALE MEDIAN 2014 2013 Change

Agents say buyers are still flowing through their doors and their only complaint is that they don’t have enough family homes to fill the demand. Adam Buchert, principal of Starr Partners Windsor, says the strength of the market has surprised him. ‘‘We were tentative in December as to what was going to happen after Christmas but our fears were unfounded,’’ he says. ‘‘Our January figures were . . . probably 10 per cent better than last year.’’ The west was one of the solid performers of the Sydney market last year, recording prices growth of more than 15 per cent, says the Domain Group’s senior economist, Dr Andrew Wilson. Investors were a major force and were chasing higher yields and lower entry points in budget-priced suburbs, he says.

As the airport’s planning progresses there will be a wide variety of impacts on surrounding suburbs. ‘‘There will be some under the flight path, which may well be negatively affected, but overall it’s such a big positive for the west,’’ Christopher says. Further north, Adam Buchert sells a range of property from duplexes and villas in South Windsor for $350,000 to acreages commanding up to $2.5 million. He says the toughest stock to find at the moment are four-bedroom, two-bathroom, double-garage homes.

At the top end, small-scale farmers who have sold land in lucrative deals to developers in suburbs such as Schofields and Box Hill are moving further afield in search of acreage and are happy to use their new-found wealth to get what they want. ‘‘Developers are paying them huge money,’’ says Buchert. ‘‘They’re cashed up ready to go and they are looking for the same thing [they had before] with the hope that in a year’s time they might get the next bite at the cherry.’’ Carolyn Boyd - AUBURN MEDIAN 2014 2013 Change Trend HOUSES n/a n/a APARTMENTS n/a n/a TOTAL SALES 0 Auction 0 Private treaty 0 Houses TOP THREE SALES n/a n/a n/a Apartments n/a n/a n/a n/a n/a - BIDWILL - BOX HILL MEDIAN 2014 2013 Change Trend HOUSES n/a n/a APARTMENTS n/a n/a TOTAL SALES 8 Auction 8 Private treaty 0 Houses TOP THREE SALES 10%+ 11 Grandview La 2200 Apartments 47 Grandview La 815 5%+ 83 Serpentine La 795 RANK MEDIAN 2014 2013 Change Trend HOUSES n/a n/a APARTMENTS n/a n/a TOTAL SALES 4 Auction 4 Private treaty 0 Houses TOP THREE SALES 10%+ 60-66 Third Rd 1400 Apartments 216-228 Government Rd 1300 5%+ 82 Sirius Pl 1300 MEDIAN 2014 2013 HOUSES 513 435 APARTMENTS 369 327 TOTAL SALES 932 Auction 720 TOP THREE SALES 192 Richmond Rd 1250 91 Newton Rd 1200 11-13 Booreea St 1100 This family home, 5 Juliana Place, Bligh Park, sold for $695,000 on Christmas Eve.

Some of his vendors are investors turning over their holdings. ‘‘Investors are certainly cashing in a lot of property that they might have held for the last three or four years. There has been a great three or four-year ride for them,’’ he says. Geoff Blaauw, owner of Response RE, sells in the Penrith area and says the market is ‘‘very, very good at the moment’’. Confirmation that Sydney’s second airport would be built at Badgerys Creek – with construction anticipated to begin next year – has provided a boost to the west. ‘‘That has pushed investors into the area,’’ Blaauw says. Badgerys Creek is about 20 kilometres south of Penrith. It’s one factor that Louis Christopher, director of SQM Research, is certainly taking into account. He says the west has consistently outperformed the eastern suburbs for several years and the airport could help it continue to do so. ‘‘It’s had a very good run,’’ he says. ‘‘The run started well before this recovery, it started back in 2011.’’ The region is ‘‘due to have a breather’’ but RANK 434 MEDIAN 2014 2013 Change Trend HOUSES 480 423 13.6% 3.1% APARTMENTS 392 332 17.9% 2.8% TOTAL SALES 145 Auction 140 Private treaty 5 Houses TOP THREE SALES 10%+ 5 Juliana Pl 695 Apartments 7 Ann Pl 652 8%+ 33 Neilson Cr 650 543 CAMBRIDGE GARDENSRANK 534 MEDIAN 2014 2013 Change Trend HOUSES 440 425 3.5% APARTMENTS n/a n/a TOTAL SALES 17 Auction 16 Private treaty 1 Houses TOP THREE SALES 8%+ 15 Sir Hercules Pde 875 Apartments 7 Sir Hercules Pde 835 5%+ 8 Theorem St 820 MEDIAN 2014 2013 Change Trend HOUSES 456 398 14.6% 3.4% APARTMENTS n/a n/a TOTAL SALES 39 Auction 39 Private treaty 0 Houses TOP THREE SALES 10%+ 2 Downing Av 596 Apartments 7 Burnleigh Cr 522 5%+ 12 Tenison Av 519 1HERSA1 N033 SUNDAY, MARCH 1, 2015 THE SUN-HERALD West Life is full of compromises.

Don’t be surprised if you see even more auctions taking place in Sydney’s south-west and Canterbury-Bankstown this year. The high buyer interest and relatively low levels of stock on the market are encouraging more agents and vendors to look to auctions as their preferred way of selling. George Lefteri, principal of LJ Hooker Padstow, is one agent taking advantage of the perfect auction conditions. ‘‘Over the next few months I think activity from buyers will be very, very strong,’’ Lefteri says. Where possible, he is telling his vendors to put properties under the hammer. Domain Group’s senior economist Dr Andrew Wilson says strong conditions propelled median prices in CanterburyBankstown up by more than 15 per cent last year. The area benefited, Wilson says, from would-be inner west buyers looking further afield for more affordable options and upgraders seeking more space. Two suburbs in Canterbury-Bankstown cracked the $1 million club. Ashbury now has a median price of $1,202,000, up from $940,500 a year ago. And Hurlstone Park’s $920,000 after rising more than 25 per cent last year. The south-west is Sydney’s most affordable region and Wilson says the planned airport at Badgerys Creekwill have a big impact over the coming years. ‘‘That is going to drive more buyers into that area,’’ Wilson says. ‘‘You will get commercial opportunities and job creation over the medium to longer term.’’ Other smaller infrastructure projects are already helping to entice buyers. In Revesby, a $41 million development by the Workers’ Club is attracting more buyers to the area, Lefteri says. The Revesby Village Centre includes a newly opened Coles supermarket and a medical centre with up to 50 specialist facilities, day surgery and ancillary services. The village centre has been planned for about 12 years. Median house prices in Revesby jumped 14.4 per cent last year from $660,000 to $755,000.

Angus Raine, executive chairman and chief executive of Raine & Horne, says a shortage of stock is fuelling the CanterburyBankstown market. ‘‘Two-bedroom apartments in Bankstown that were worth $320,000 three years ago are now selling for about $420,000,’’ he says. ‘‘Likewise, off-theplan, two-bedroom apartments were fetching $350,000 three years ago and they’re now selling for between $480,000 and $550,000.’’ Vince Labbozzetta, of Raine & Horne Liverpool, says the South West Rail Link is attracting investors’ attention and Raine and Horne offices are reporting that inquiries from out-of-area investors are 20 per cent higher than a year ago. Angus Raine is expecting the lower interest rates to drive further activity in the south-west. ‘‘Anything under $500,000 will be snapped up – for example, older-style apartments in Liverpool are still available for under $350,000.’’ Carolyn Boyd 476 APPIN 497 BASS HILL MEDIAN 2014 2013 Change Trend HOUSES 552 445 24.1% APARTMENTS n/a n/a TOTAL SALES 20 Auction 20 Private treaty 0 Houses TOP THREE SALES 12%+ 27 Derna St 890 Apartments 23 Wootten Av 825 8%+ 43 Vevi St 715 RANK MEDIAN 2014 2013 Change Trend HOUSES 406 338 20.1% 3.1% APARTMENTS 270 235 14.9% TOTAL SALES 112 Auction 105 Private treaty 7 Houses TOP THREE SALES 12%+ 41 Twingleton Av 550 Apartments 59 Clerkenwell St 550 8%+ 26 Clarissa Pl 540 537 AUSTRAL MEDIAN 2014 2013 Change Trend HOUSES 452 380 18.9% 3.4% APARTMENTS n/a n/a TOTAL SALES 55 Auction 44 Private treaty 11 Houses TOP THREE SALES 12%+ 115 Sadleir Av 675 Apartments 59 Strickland Cr 625 8%+ 98 Maxwells Av 620 - BELMORE MEDIAN 2014 2013 Change Trend HOUSES n/a n/a APARTMENTS n/a n/a TOTAL SALES 8 Auction 8 Private treaty 0 Houses TOP THREE SALES 10%+ 70 Kundabung St 865 Apartments 99 Wanawong St 845 8%+ 170 Binalong Rd 793 - AMBARVALE 373 BARDIA Change Trend 23.8% 3.8% 13.9% 4.0% Private treaty 122 Houses 12%+ Apartments 7%+ RANK MEDIAN 2014 2013 Change Trend HOUSES n/a n/a APARTMENTS n/a n/a TOTAL SALES 5 Auction 5 Private treaty 0 Houses TOP THREE SALES 8%+ 185 Riverside Dr 383 Apartments 6 Davidson Pl 340 8%+ 33 Faithfull Pl 340 169 ASHCROFT MEDIAN 2014 2013 Change Trend HOUSES 1202 941 >25.0% 6.1% APARTMENTS n/a n/a TOTAL SALES 35 Auction 11 Private treaty 24 Houses TOP THREE SALES 12%+ 10 Fifth St 1635 Apartments 15 Third St 1605 5%+ 141 Holden St 1586 BANKSTOWN median price for houses is now $1,120,000, up from $902,500. Paying the median price in Hurlstone Park might get buyers an older-style threebedroom, one-bathroom home on 391 square metres, such as 72 Acton Street, which was nabbed at auction on Valentine’s Day for $1,115,000 through Cheryl Forbes of LJ Hooker Marrickville/Dulwich Hill. Across Canterbury-Bankstown and the south-west, properties near train stations are more popular than ever, says John Owsnett, principal of Chambers Fleming Professionals in Padstow. ‘‘They are selling at very good prices and are selling very quickly within a week or two,’’ he says. And property owners with houses in highdensity residential zones are taking advantage of the opportunity to sell at lucrative prices. In February the owners of 49 and 51 Anglo Road in Campsie offloaded a combined 1100 square metres for $4.2 million.

But others – such as Ramsgate Beach, which grew by just 0.8 per cent, were passed over in the rush. The south is generally split into two markets – the St George area and the Sutherland Shire. Dr Andrew Wilson, the Domain Group senior economist, says the Sutherland Shire in particular can sometimes be ‘‘a market within itself’’. ‘‘The shire had a good year but it didn’t grow quite as strongly as some of the other changeover areas,’’ Wilson says. ‘‘The shire just tends to be a little bit on its own and it doesn’t pick up as much of that overall Sydney buzz that the other regions do.’’ Louis Christopher, director of SQM Research, says the inner south is undergoing something of a revival because of demographic changes. ‘‘It’s becoming a little bit more affluent and I think that’s going to continue,’’ he says.

In the lead-up to Christmas he sold 1/161 Alfred Street in San Souci for $1.14 million, well above the suburb’s median house price of $942,500. The three-bedroom villa on 215 square metres, about a block back from the water, traded in 2003 for $700,000. Most of Fadel’s buyers are locals or are moving from further afield such as Bankstown and Padstow to be nearer to the beaches. A few come from the east and only a small number from the Sutherland Shire. In the Cronulla area, where unit prices grew 11.7 per cent to $608,750 last year, Wilson says there remains a strong demand for apartments. ‘‘There is a lot of development happening down that way and I expect that to continue,’’ he says.

Units in Bexley and Kogarah climbed 18.7 per cent to $511,750 and $580,000 respectively. While a twobedroom unit at 9/145 Willarong Road, Caringbah, sold in February for $640,000 after five buyers showed interest. Agent Stewart Maloney, of Century 21 Caringbah, said the price was $40,000 more than the vendor had been hoping for. The handful of suburbs that fell in price last year could provide good buying opportunities. Angus Raine is tipping Sandringham, on the western shore of Botany Bay at the mouth of the Georges River, as a suburb to watch. ‘‘Sandringham is a popular enclave for executives from the financial services sector and therefore is a market that will respond to economic themes such as business and consumer confidence and monetary policy tweaks,’’ he says.

Sydney’s south to kind of outer south is an affordability play in many respects.’’ In Jannali, Greg Calderwood, sales manager for Sanders Property Agents, says the year has had a ‘‘phenomenal start’’. ‘‘We’ve had a lot more stock come on to the market than normal for this time of year but then the buyer activity has been the best part,’’ he says. Some of Sanders’ open home inspections are attracting 60 groups through on a single weekend. ‘‘This is huge and the buyer activity has been incredible,’’ he says. The market has started out so strong that two of Calderwood’s own staff, who had been toying with the idea of selling, have dived in and put their properties on the market.
