G'day #ProjectMarketersAU. Let’s talk about Melbourne—a city that may have struggled in 2024 but is poised to become one of 2025’s top investment hotspots. According to a new report, Melbourne’s property market is primed for a comeback, offering a golden opportunity for investors and developers alike. 📈 Why Melbourne’s Set for a Bounce Back Melbourne’s housing market, while seeing declines throughout 2024, is tipped to rebound next year. The Hotspotting Top 10 National Best Buys report highlights its untapped potential, driven by: Affordability: Melbourne now has a significant price gap with Sydney, making it attractive to buyers. Population Growth: Despite high taxes and governance challenges, migration to Melbourne remains strong. Catch-Up Phase: Experts predict a 3-5% growth in median house prices as the market begins to play catch-up with other capitals. 🌟 Key Investment Hotspots Hotspotting identified Melbourne’s metro and southeast regions, particularly the City of Casey, as prime targets for growth. Demand for affordable housing and attached dwellings is driving rents, property prices, and new builds. The report also listed regional Victorian gems like Ballarat and Albury/Wodonga, underscoring the state’s broader potential for investors. 🏙️ Melbourne Isn’t Alone The report highlights Darwin as another 2025 standout. With affordable properties and high rental yields, suburbs like Zuccoli, Gunn, and Bellamack are on the radar for investors. 🌏 The Full 2025 Hotspot List Here’s where to watch: Victoria: City of Melbourne, City of Casey, City of Ballarat, Albury/Wodonga NSW: City of Sydney, Tamworth, Albury/Wodonga QLD: Sunshine Coast, Redland City NT: Darwin TAS: Launceston What do you mates think? Will you ride this wave in Melbourne or capitalize on a different region?

Good morning #ArcaniteCommunity. Despite a softer market, Aussie home sellers are raking in record profits. CoreLogic’s latest Pain & Gain report highlights just how resilient the market is, even in the face of affordability challenges. In the September Quarter, Aussie sellers hit a record median profit of $295,000, the highest since the mid-90s. At the same time, losses remained minimal, with the median loss holding steady at $40,000. 🔑 Lowest Loss Rates Since 2008 Only 5% of properties were sold at a loss—the lowest rate in 15 years. Total resale profits reached $34 billion, showcasing the market’s ability to deliver gains even during uncertain times. 🏠 Houses Outshine Units Houses continue to dominate, with only 2.9% sold at a loss compared to 9.4% for units. This trend underscores the long-term profitability of standalone homes versus apartments. 🌆 Regional Markets Take the Lead While Melbourne recorded the highest rate of loss-making sales at 9.9%, other areas like Brisbane shone with a 99.4% profit rate—making it Australia’s most lucrative city for sellers. Regional markets, particularly resource-driven areas in Central Queensland and WA, saw significant capital growth, further boosting resale profits. ⏳ Holding Pays Off Homeowners are holding onto properties for longer—on average nine years—leading to stronger returns. For sellers willing to ride out slower markets, this strategy is proving incredibly effective. Will this trend hold up into next year? What do you mates think?

Evening #ArcaniteCommunity. Bendigo is stealing the show as 2024’s regional hot spot! Affordable, full of charm, and bursting with potential, this Victorian gem is proving you don’t need a million-dollar postcode to live your dream. Why Bendigo is the Talk of the Town: 1. Affordable Living, Big Value With a median house price of $598K (up 4.2% from last year), Bendigo is offering what city markets can’t—spacious homes with real backyards. Hot suburbs like Ascot and Maiden Gully are seeing double-digit growth, with families and first-home buyers snatching up properties left and right. 2. Better Connections, Bigger Opportunities Massive upgrades like the $75M airport expansion and transport projects are transforming Bendigo into a connected regional hub. Whether it’s work or play, getting to Melbourne (and beyond) is becoming easier than ever. 3. Charm Meets Modern From historic, jaw-dropping mansions (like that $4M stunner on Hopper Street) to eco-friendly homes built for modern lifestyles, Bendigo offers something for everyone. Buyers are loving options that balance heritage charm with sustainable, future-focused living. 4. Future-Proofed Growth With a 20% spike in property inquiries and booming demand, Bendigo is on the rise. Affordable homes, family-friendly amenities, and an emphasis on community make it a no-brainer for savvy buyers looking for more bang for their buck. This is your chance to capitalize on Bendigo’s momentum! We predict that this is just the beginning of Bendigo's continued rise. Do you mates agree?

Arvo #ArcaniteCommunity. Let’s talk about the quiet hero of Australia’s housing scene—the First Home Guarantee. While all eyes are on shiny new schemes, this program has been low-key changing lives, helping nearly 100,000 Aussies since 2020 get their foot in the property door. Yep, it’s giving first-home buyers a real shot at owning without breaking the bank. What’s the Deal? With just a 5% deposit, the First Home Guarantee has your back—literally. The government guarantees the rest, meaning no expensive mortgage insurance and fewer hoops to jump through. Last year alone, over 36,000 buyers snapped up the chance, proving it’s a game-changer. No Price Hikes Here Unlike some schemes that mess with the market and push prices up, this one keeps things chill. Buyers are sticking within price caps, and while there’s some action around those thresholds, it’s not inflating the market. For first-home buyers, it’s all about making their budget stretch further. Why It’s a Win This isn’t just about ticking a government box—it’s saving people from climbing rental costs (up 6% in the last year!) and fast-tracking their homeownership dreams. Plus, it’s super low-risk for the government, with only 0.1% of loans in arrears. Can It Go Bigger? Here’s the catch: last year, 95% of spots were snapped up. With demand skyrocketing, the question is—why not expand it? The new Help to Buy scheme is rolling out, but it’s more expensive and helps fewer buyers. Maybe it’s time to double down on what’s working? What do you mates think?

Evening #RealEstateAustralia. As the curtains close on Australia's spring auction season, the property market is far from hibernating. While the hammer might have fallen for the last time in 2024, savvy buyers know the game is still on—and opportunities abound. Spring auctions saw solid activity, but with a clearance rate of 59% (down from 64% last year), many properties remain unsold, setting the stage for post-holiday deals. These unsold homes, combined with off-market opportunities, present a unique advantage for those who stay sharp during the festive lull. January: A Hidden Sweet Spot While many assume January is a sleepy month for property, it's often a buyer’s dream. With fewer active competitors and motivated sellers eager to offload stock that didn’t sell in spring, the holiday season is ripe for negotiation. Homes passed in at auction or quietly listed become excellent opportunities for those ready to make their move. February: A Fresh Wave of Listings By February, the market wakes up in full force. Families are back from holidays, new listings hit the market, and energy surges. Historical data shows a 42% jump in home loan approvals in February, while property listings often double by month’s end. It’s a month of action, but also competition—buyers who’ve done their homework during January will have the edge. Strategy is the Name of the Game Success in real estate isn’t just about spring auctions; it’s about playing the long game. Use the quieter January weeks to fine-tune budgets, secure pre-approvals, and build relationships with agents. It’s also a great time to scope out off-market deals and plan for February’s fresh listings. Remember, property success favours those who stay ready. Whether it’s capitalizing on holiday bargains or jumping on February’s new opportunities, there’s plenty of promise in the market for 2025. Do you agree #ArcaniteCommunity?

Arvo #ArcaniteCommunity. As the year winds down, let's take a peek at where homeowners are selling at a loss and where profits are soaring. While the September quarter painted a mostly positive picture for Australian real estate, the story has two sides. Nationally, 95% of property sales turned a profit, the highest rate since 2008. The unit market, in particular, showed remarkable improvement, with loss-making sales dropping to 9.4%, down from a high of 15.2% earlier this year. This shift reflects the growing demand for units, as houses remain financially out of reach for many buyers. But not every market is thriving. Sydney and Melbourne revealed stark contrasts. In Sydney, 88.7% of units and 98.5% of houses sold at a profit. However, areas like Parramatta, Ryde, and Strathfield showed higher rates of loss-making sales, often linked to high-density developments. In Melbourne, the apartment-heavy City of Melbourne saw 43.7% of properties sold at a loss, with Stonnington and Yarra following close behind. Houses fared better overall, but units remain three times more likely to sell at a loss. Why the shift toward units? With national home values rising and houses increasingly unaffordable, demand for units is on the rise. As CoreLogic highlighted, “Demand is deferring to the unit sector because houses are so out of reach.” This trend is reshaping profitability across markets, particularly in areas like Perth and Brisbane, which are experiencing strong growth. What are your thoughts on this shift? Let us know in the comments below! #RealEstateAustralia #HousingCrisis #PropertyInvesting #MarketTrends #AffordableLiving #RealEstateInsights #ArcaniteInsights

G'day #ArcaniteCommunity. Traditionally, most Aussies stick to a 30-year mortgage. But with rising home prices locking many out of the market, some lenders like Pepper Money are introducing 40-year options as a way to ease monthly repayments. While longer terms mean smaller monthly bills, they also mean significantly more interest paid over time. Take this for example: on a $650,000 loan, opting for a 40-year term instead of 30 years could add up to $350,000 in extra interest. On an $800,000 property, that figure could soar past $400,000. The trade-off? It may be the only viable way for first-home buyers to secure a place in the market. A Flexible Option for Tough Times For buyers on the edge of affordability, a longer loan could make the difference between owning a home or staying out of the market altogether. Lenders argue that the extended term provides flexibility—borrowers can pay the minimum during tight times or make extra repayments when finances improve. Experts agree it’s not a one-size-fits-all solution. Brokers emphasize the importance of assessing each buyer’s long-term goals and financial health. Refinancing remains a key strategy, with many homeowners opting to pay down principal faster when their circumstances change. Is It Worth It? If the choice is between no property or a 40-year loan, some argue the latter is the lesser evil. It’s also worth noting that few people keep a loan for its entire term—most refinance, upgrade, or move before the loan’s end. What It Means for the Market Extended loan terms could bring more buyers into the market, especially in areas where affordability is a significant barrier. But with interest rates still high and potential cuts looming in 2025, understanding buyer sentiment will be crucial. As affordability continues to be a national concern, tools like this can provide a much-needed boost to homeownership aspirations.
