Recent financial turmoil
illustrated what will happen when confidence drop. In other words money will
have ZERO value and other commodities too will lead towards no value. Therefore please
remember your home will appreciate if people are confident of the future but
will decline as soon as it reverse. This is more than supply & demand theory.
Supply & Demand are the
key factors to price fluctuations. It is not different in housing market.
Many other factors contribute/influence Supply & Demand. Some factors are
induced while others appear as a result of deficiencies/efficiencies
in planning. Impact from some natural factors are hard to predict for planning
If supply of houses are
more, house price should drop as more available for those few buyers. It is the
reverse if demand is more. When demand is high more buyers than sellers in the
market, who could pay best price will be a winner.
Current market in
Australia should be a high DEMAND market as there is a severe shortage of rental
properties. This is due to no
substantial CONSTRUCTION activities in the past 3 years. This problem was
created by short sighted authorities who discourage investors to overcome their
other deficiencies. It is said to be on right track now and housing market will
pick up sooner or later. If current predictions are correct, who could hold to
their assets will be winners soon. You may find exception to rules.
On the other side, inflation
is making difficult for some house owners to retain properties. Cost of living
is going up daily. Some house owners believe that selling their house is a
relief. This belief is making more houses available to the market, taking
the true market value out of them. This will result many of such house owners to
make big losses. As a result more people will fall from house ownership and
contribute further to Rental Crisis. It is sad to note that most vulnerable
people are the victim of this new inflation crisis.
Rent is expected to rise
daily as there is a shortage in supply. It is said that RENT is going to be as
much as of a MORTGAGE within a very
short time, probably around 3 years. If you sell your house today and make a
big loss, then once again if you have to pay an amount equal to mortgage as your
rent in future, where will you stand, do you think your current decision is
correct? No one can guarantee the future but looking for other alternatives
may save you DOLLARS. Any assistance with alternative home loans or personal

Banks are adding interest to
normal rate hikes. They want to protect their share holder value at the cost of
poor people. Is this right? They have taken responsibility of Reserve Bank to
their hand, this can hurt important role paid by Reserve Bank & lead to big
problems.
Also it is high time to
think wisely. People talk about HOUSE PRICES TOO HIGH and not
affordable. Will there be a way to overcome this?
In real terms, HOUSE prices
consist of
LAND PRICE
+ COST OF CONSTRUCTION less DEPRECIATION
Land Price =
Cost of sub division + Council levies + Developer profit + Statutory fees
Construction Cost = Material
+ Labor + Council Levies + Statutory fees + Builder profit
If there is a way to bring
down any of these cost, then there is a way to reduce house prices. Only thing
we see today is that prices of material & labour going up daily.
A drop in
particular type of housing price could occur if people do not want to buy that
type of houses for some reason or the other. Reverse is also possible for those
houses in demand. That is why a unique house is always appear to be very
expensive.
People would like to live in
their own created world. This makes two items not comparable. Some pay premiums
to achieve what they want while other’s use creativity. This premium price is
not real and can change with changes in people’s attitude.
World is changing daily.
Once city was only place had work. Then new cities were created. Now internet
super highway created more work from home. As once thought this may make city
congestion to reduce and as a result demand for city property to decline which
never eventuate, people those who have money play a big game, capitalizing on
weaker points of others.
If all of us want to live in
one suburb, house prices of that
suburb will rise. Then people need to analyse the reason for that demand. If we
can duplicate and make a similar suburb then people will have a choice, demand
will fall which will impact prices. Natural settings of a suburb such as closer
to OCEAN is something we can not duplicate.
Each person is different and
live a different life style. Not even communism could change that 100%. So we
need to accept who we are and look for ways we could live. Rome wasn’t created
over night so as our lives. We need to start from where we are today and look
forward to get where we want to be. Government & other organizations could
assist us and give direction to do so.
House ownership for every
Australian is a good motive and
correct way to look at. How can we
achieve this, surely we need to look at things very low at first. I mean at the
minimum requirement levels. As per banks computation,
cost of living for a family of 3 is around $20,000 and 85% of earnings as
disposable income is a steady life style. Minimum full time salary is around 25K
today. This means if 2 are working, a house loan around $150,000 is not that
difficult one to repay. It may change with current cost of living rises. If
people look where properties available at this price, probably they will find a
housing solution. In my opinion government should give grants/incentives for
such people only, not for those who look at 500K properties. Any new comer
beginning at this lower level will create a demand at this level first and then
when established can push the market up word.
This is my opinion only to resolve this problem and you need Expert
Advise.
Double dipping by banks
could make economy to slow down, it may lead to recession if no corrective
action is taken now.
