Portfolios investment property of the month is Chinchilla.

Its a gas – and it has got the Queensland investment property market buzzing.

Calling all astute property investors…

Get set for great predicted returns, high rental yields on the back of a regional resources boom.

Will the market go up? Will the market go down?
Will it stay exactly as it is? What is happening out there?
Without predicting the next market movements lets talk about the state of play.
Currently in Australia the economy is looking good, growth is abounding, people are sensing a greater level of confidence in the market as evidenced in the following news article. (http://www.smh.com.au/business/prosperity-on-rise-as-economy-shows-signs-of-recovery-20100321-qo40.html) CommSec’s National Performance Guage shows that those who owned shares and property have increased their wealth by 8% in the last year and 40% in the last decade.
The way I see it there  are two sides to the property market – what is going on locally and what is going on globally. I just want to focus on the local market for now.
The Australian Economy is performing well. Growth indicators are up, interest rates are climbing in response to strong economic growth and there has been a considerable jump in house prices.
In the favour of property investors is the growing housing shortage facing Australia. It is predicted that Australia will need an additional 800,000 properties than it is currently supplying if nothing changes between now and 2030. This is a phenominal claim, and even if something is done this is great news for property investors.
A shortage of properties means great potential capital gains, as well as increased rentals driving more cash flow positive property, or at least swallowing the gains in interest rates.
Finally, on the economy, banks continue to be tight in their lending – so getting money for that investment property is a challenge without someone like Portfolios to work for you. We have sound long term relationships with a number of banks and financial institutions , with our level of understanding of the finer details of their policies and ways we can often help you where others cannot.
So boom or bust – the age old question is when is the right time to buy, but a long history of capital growth has taught us that now is always the right time to buy in the long run.

Will the market go up?

Will the market go down?

Will it stay exactly as it is?

What is happening out there?

Sizzling Investment Properties Still To Be Found

So lets look at an area of Australia we see great potential now as a good property investment opportunity. Gladstone NE Queensland.
Gladstone should become Australia’s next super infrastructure town. If all the projects are confirmed, it very well could be. The number of future projects (15 in total) means that Gladstone is rightly classified as a ‘super infrastructure town ‘, which will struggle to cope with the enormous influx of future workers.
Where Gladstone differs from other resource “ boom towns “ is in the medium house prices. In other infrastructure towns the medium house prices are from $800,000 to $900,000, not so in Gladstone where the media house price is currently $360,000 with plenty of potential for growth.
Portfolios Property has investment properties available in and around Gladstone including the Stoneybrook (http://www.portfoliosproperty.com.au/stoneybrook-gladstone-queensland) and properties in nearby Calliope. (http://www.portfoliosproperty.com.au/northridge-estate-calliope-queensland)
Paul himself has been investing in Gladstone for the last 5 years with a few spec builds and some buy and hold. He is also planning to add more property within Gladstone to his own portfolio.
