Buyers’ interest to be piqued

THE downturn in the worldstock markets will result inlower interest rates for thePerth property market,according to Jones BallardProperty Group directorAdrian Ballard.

Mr Ballard said a number ofmajor banks had alreadydropped their long-term fixedinterest rates in response tothe slump in the global stockmarket.

“If events of 2008 arerepeated,when there was alsoa major fall in stock marketvalues, then interest rates inAustralia should fall signifi-cantly over the comingmonths,” he said.

“Rises in interest rates dur-ing 2010 had an adverse effecton the Perth property marketby making property less

affordable, especially for first-home buyers.

“This resulted in a majorblow-out in the number ofproperties listed for sale inPerth, which now totals17,000.”

Mr Ballard said that it nowtook an average of 82 days tosell a home in Perth – anincrease of 16 days comparedto a year ago.

“Lower interest ratesshould see the number ofproperties listed for sale beginto fall over the comingmonths as buyers becomemore active in the propertymarket,” he said.

“Jones Ballard has recordeda rising number of enquiriesfrom property buyers overthe last month due to the factthat interest rates were fore-cast to remain stable. Withinterest rates now expectedto fall, we expect theseinquiries to now turn intoactual sales.

“In particular, our companyexpects greater activity fromproperty investors. Our prop-erty management department

is now recording rental vacan-cy rates below 2 per cent inrecent months and as a result,weekly rents are beginning torise.”

Mr Ballard said lower inter-est rates would encouragemore investors to purchaseproperties in Perth, especiallyas the underlying fundamen-tals of the WA economy stillremained strong.

“In times of economicuncertainty, investors focus onsafe investments, and one ofthe safest is property, particu-larly in WA, which is one ofthe strongest economies inAustralia,” he said.

“The latest investment fig-ures show that in WesternAustralia there is currently$264 billion (worth of) majorprojects that are under wayor under consideration – a 19per cent increase comparedto the March quarter.

“Despite the uncertainty inthe stock market, theprospects for the Perth realestate market look very posi-tive during the coming twelvemonths.” ■

Stylish blend is ablast from the pastTHIS charming original home is a slice of MtLawley character in Scarborough.

Picturesque gardens surround the home,which is on a north/south facing 518sq m greentitle block.

Mature trees dot the perimeter of the prop-erty, shading the alfresco areas and providing aleafy outlook from almost every room.

Among the plants that give the property somuch of its character are olive trees that lendan exotic flavour.

An elaborate water feature takes centrestage in one area of the garden, and adds an airof tranquillity and elegance.

The interior of the home is testament to theenduring style of the era in which it was built.

From the high, ornate ceilings to the pol-ished floorboards that characterise the frontrooms, it oozes old world glamour.

True to the style of most character homes,the front rooms branch off a central hallway.

The formal lounge and dining rooms appearspacious and are light and bright.

This overall look is achieved with a big win-dow that overlooks the front yard and a lightcolour scheme that opens the space up.

It is a stylish blend of new and old, and has

modern conveniences such as a gas heater andreverse cycle airconditioner to ensure it is asfunctional as it is fashionable.

There is space for a family, with an extrafamily room away from the main living area forprivacy.

This second living area connects a sleep-out,which could be used as yet another living roomor enclosed patio for all weather entertaining.

It connects to the back yard, with a pergolaand shady brick-paved alfresco area.

The central kitchen has an internal win-dow/servery to the family room, for ease ofentertaining.

White cupboards and yellow bench topsbrighten the space.

It comes equipped with a stainless steel dish-washer.

Floorboards extend to the three spaciousbedrooms, including the master bedroom atthe front with a garden outlook.

The home is a rare offering, with room for afamily and potential to expend up and capitaliseon views from a second storey.

It is close to schools, shops and parks andthere is an opportunity to lease the propertyto the current owner for six months. ■

Hot property has new meaningIF you want someone with integrity to sellyour property or need an agent to do a littledetective work and find your dream home,Kelvin Reynolds is the man to see.

He served as a CIB detective for most ofhis 15 years in the WA Police Service beforedeciding to enter the real estate industry.

Today he is one of the friendly, hard-work-ing professionals at Wright Real Estate, bring-ing 12 years of experience to the team.

Mr Reynolds told Residential he owed hisability to understand people and communica-tion skills to his many years of police service.

He described real estate as a challengingcareer that offered great rewards to thosewho worked hard to achieve the best out-comes for clients, listened to advice and wereavailable at all hours.

“I am motivated in real estate through mydesires to have a flexible if not demandingwork schedule, but mainly I love the feeling ofassisting people in their needs to either sell orpurchase a home,” said Mr Reynolds,who spe-cialises in Woodlands, south Doubleview andScarborough properties.

“My greatest successes would include helpinga number of retirees sell their homes whichthey’d been in for many years,” he said.“It was abig decision to make,but nearly all of them werethankful that they made the move.”

He said while property prices were at 2007levels, he did not expect the market to deteri-

orate further but he predicted growth wouldbe slow compared to the boom years of2004-2007.

For those thinking about selling, MrReynolds says: “Go with the agent you feelthat you can trust, not the one who tells youthe highest price or the lowest commission.”

When he isn’t busy helping clients, MrReynolds enjoys spending time with his wifeand two sons. His pastimes include boating,surfing and playing golf, football and basketball.

Mr Reynolds is active in the local communi-ty and has served as president of NewmanCollege’s Marist Football Club for the pastfour years.

Looking to the future, he said he might oneday own an agency or be in partnership withothers. ■

Kelvin made a successful career move, writes KEREN BELLOS

KelvinReynolds WHILE many Australians

have high levels of personaland credit card debt, thoseseeking a home loan in thenear future are advised tojump off the consumptionbandwagon.

Smartline Personal Mort-gage Advisers offers theseguidelines to avoid creditshopping and improve yourhome loan chances:

1. Limit your applicationsfor credit – or don’t apply atall. Personal debt levels havea significant effect on yourability to secure a loan, but“shopping” for credit – thatis making many applicationsfor credit – or acceptingthose unsolicited creditcard offers in the mail canalso be detrimental to yourchances of being approvedfor a home loan.

2. Treat credit responsiblyand don’t load up on debt.Credit applications are

taken into account whendetermining your creditscore.

Most lenders now useautomated credit scoring,which consists of complexalgorithms.

While there is no infor-mation available on howexactly these scores are cal-culated, Smartline notesthat the number of recentcredit inquiries can be oneof the most significant fac-tors in an applicant’s creditscore being deemed unac-ceptable.

3. Careful management ofcredit is particularly impor-tant for first homebuyers.

While it can take yearsfor borrowers to build astrong net asset positionor a lengthy employmenthistory, keeping a low levelof activity on a creditrecord is one way first-time borrowers can max-imise their chances of

securing a home loan.

4. If you must have credit,manage it well.

If you’re planning to applyfor a home loan, even in thefuture, it can be a good ideato cancel the credit cardsyou don’t need, or at leastreduce the limit to a man-ageable level on the onesyou wish to keep. Whenmost lenders assess yourability to repay a mortgage,they assume that your cred-it card will or could bedrawn to its limit.

5. Limit temptation.Once you have a home

loan, having sensible creditlimits minimises the tempta-tion to buy a new loungesuite or plasma TV on cred-it. This way, you can con-centrate on reducing yourhome loan and gettingahead, particularly if thereare further interest raterises. ■

Avoid credit shopping to improve loan chancesFive smart suggestions, not all easy but all possible,to help you on your way towards getting a home loan.

Pair are the apple of their builder’s eyeTHE architects at reputablecustom builder DominationHomes have outdone them-selves with these new street-front homes that epitomise thecompany’s motto, ‘designed oninnovation, built on tradition’.

Known for being a specialistin the luxury two-storey narrowlot niche, the builder has comeup with the goods yet again withthese lavish contemporary fami-ly homes.

The list of advantages withthese houses is a long one, but itcould be argued that their bestfeature is that the iconic Domi-nation styling differs between

the homes – a rare feature in atownhouse development.

Minor differences are in theavailable space and layout –dwelling A offers 326sq m of liv-ing space, and residence B a totalof 333sq m – and the modernfacades,but each house is a state-ment in style and distinction.

Based on the builder’s Nou-veau and New York designs, thehomes are positioned oppositeparklands, with balconies at thefront of each that offer leafyoutlooks.

A common factor of thehomes are the central, open-plan living areas, featuring a

deluxe kitchen and huge familyand dining rooms that flowseamlessly into the rear cedar-lined alfresco areas.

The gourmet kitchens comewith Smeg appliances, soft-closedraws and waterfall-edge stonebenchtops.

The functional floor plan,stunning views, big bedroomsand sheer quality of the homescombine for a holiday-at-homeatmosphere.

Topping this off is the lowmaintenance nature of the prop-erty, with landscaped gardensfront and back.

Hotel-style opulence defines

the master bedroom andensuite, with private cedar-linedbalcony access and walk-inrobe.

The minor bedrooms rivalthe main in style, and share anequally lavish designer bath-room and separate powderroom.

A second family or theatreroom and a study nook com-pletes the ground floor.

Extras include zoned ductedreverse-cycle airconditioning,ducted vacuuming, securityalarm system with video andintercom, smart wiring and anextra-height double garage ■

Big quiet achiever

HIDDEN behind the modest facade of thisbeachside residence is a home that surpriseson every level, not least for its space, style andintriguing blend of character and contempo-rary features.

Traditional hallmarks of its character, such asfloorboards, high, ornate ceilings and leadlightfront doors, welcome people to the home,which then transitions into a more contempo-rary style in the living areas at the back.

It is set back from the road behind a highperimeter fence and automatic security gatethat enhance privacyin the west-facingfront courtyard, anda veranda that is theperfect spot to relaxin the afternoonsun.

The bright blueentry door is a signof the striking andslightly eccentriccombination of fea-tures to come.

A similarly vividcolour schemelivens up the foyer,and along with timber floorboards, extendsdown the central hallway, past an eye-catchingdecorative architrave.

Double doors separate this section of thehome from the extended living areas, wherethe extensive use of glass maximises inlandview and natural light.

Limestone walls and timber-lined ceilingshave been combined to great effect in these

rooms, with the result being an ultimate beachshack look and feel.

Through two sets of sliding doors, this openzone also connects to an elevated timber deckthat overlooks the resort-style backyard.

A third set of glass doors opens to an atri-um-style stairwell that leads to the groundfloor and out to the rear alfresco area.

If you love entertaining, you will not be ableto resist this limestone-paved outdoor area,featuring an outdoor kitchen with timber-topped benches, integrated gas cooktop and

pizza oven – allprotected by adome patio andoverlooking a pooland lush tropicalgardens.

The masterbedroom comescomplete with awall of built-inrobes, a two-waypowder room andmodern ensuitewith a dual vanityunit, full heighttiling and a sepa-

rate bath and shower. The three minor bed-rooms are spacious and share a bathroom.

Other features include huge storage areasunder the house including a wine cellar andsmall workshop with bench space, a securityalarm and reticulated gardens.

The home is on a 506sq m block in walkingdistance of cafes, Mettams Beach, sports clubsand private and public schools. ■

Low on maintenance,high on quality livingIN an elevated location with inland views, thisnew street-front townhouse promises lowmaintenance and high-quality living.

The reticulated native border gardensrequire minimal upkeep but add character andcolour to the rendered façade and matchingperimeter fence.

Attention to detail makes the home standout.

White timber-slat panels to the fence com-plement the white window frames, doubleentry doors and garage door, and an eye-catch-ing limestone feature portico welcomes peopleto the home.

Inside, low-key luxury reigns supreme, fromthe floor tiles that flow throughout the maintraffic areas to the crisp colour scheme thatenhances the sense of space.

The ground floor is a dedicated living zone.It comprises the open-plan living room,

meals area with outdoor access and gourmetkitchen.

It is a large space, made to look even moreso thanks to the light and fresh colour palette,many windows and glass doors and high ceil-ings with downlights.

Entertaining will be a breeze thanks to theproximity of the functional kitchen to the rearcourtyard, which is extensively paved with liq-

uid limestone so that the new owner need notlift a finger to maintain it.

Features of the kitchen include a built-inpantry, stainless steel appliances including adishwasher, gas cook top and exhaust, stonebench tops and ample storage space.

For convenience and added security, there isa shopper’s entrance to the kitchen from thedouble garage.

A well-equipped laundry with ample storageand access to a service courtyard completesthis level.

The carpeted staircase leads to a living areaon the landing with sliding doors to the cov-ered balcony overlooking the street.

This level is made up of three double-sizedbedrooms with robes and two bathrooms, oneof which is an ensuite to the main bedroom.

The wet areas are impressive, particularlythe shared bathroom, which has a separatebath and feature tile panels to the framelessglass shower and behind the three-door vanityunit.

It is close to shops and has good publictransport links.

And views to die for. By SAMANTHA JONES

NESTLED on a 1ha block, thiscosy home brims with countrywarmth.

Tall native trees and gardensadorn the exterior of number 107,which is set in a cul-de-sac and takesin gentle valley views.

The estate offers a mix of tall tim-bers and open plan pasture that cre-ate a multi-faceted property.

There is a large powered shedthat could be used as a teenagers’bunkhouse.

A substantial amount of the prop-erty has rabbit/kangaroo fencingwhich is excellent for those whowant a space to keep pets con-tained, or harvest a vegetable patch.

The large family home is charac-terised by its flowing, open livingplan.

Wood floors run through trafficareas of the home and highlight itscountry-style appeal.

The main living room is intelli-gently designed and merges seam-lessly with the alfresco entertainingarea that basks in the stunning treedviews.

A modern kitchen sits at the end

of the long room, which has a ceilingfan and a built-in fireplace for addedambience.

Stainless steel appliances, lots ofbench and cupboard space, an islandbench and built-in pantry ensure thekitchen will appease the fussiest ofcooks.

Two additional separate livingareas make the home ideal for bothpermanent and holiday living, allow-ing a getaway spot for everyone,while four bedrooms and two bath-rooms cater for all needs.

One of the bathrooms is anensuite to the roomy master bed-room, while the three minor roomsshare use of the main bathroom. ■
