PROPERTY NEWS
GOOD SALES REPORTED OUT EASTWARDS PROPERTY MATTERS ERLE LEVEY ROARK Walsh has been making some good sales in Noosa’s eastern beaches in recent weeks. The Tom Offermann Real Estate agent was going to take the six-bedroom, twobathroom beachfront house to auction in March but the lockdown due to the Covid-19 pandemic saw the listing switch to negotiation. “It was like having an auction in slow motion,’’ Roark said. “Three buyers submitted bids over a two-week period. “We achieved a sale price of more than $2m. It was remarkable given the fact of everything that had just happened. “A lot of the appeal was it had two self-contained zones. Both upstairs and downstairs have three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen and separate living rooms. “The market is strong. There are lots of buyers and record low numbers of listings.

Four-bedroom beachside house with pool at 20 Yinneburra St, Yaroomba. “It was absolutely fully renovated,’’ Nathan said, “with awesome coast views from the national park to Mt Coolum. “It’s in a great street at Sunrise, just a short walk to the beach.’’ The multi-level house has a north-east facing terrace, and an insulated 6m by 6m shed. Nathan said a lot of recent sales have been to interstate buyers, using on-line video tours of the properties instead of inspections. He said the on-line auctions were a sign of the times. “So you can be sitting at home in the UK at 3am in the morning … comfortable in the buying process. “It provides an even playing field. Even overseas bidders can see what’s going on.’’
“In the past six months 70 per cent have been Queensland buyers, predominantly Brisbane and local. “The eastern beaches market is very strong. People are looking to relocate, whether to upsize or downsize. “Once the borders are open we expect an influx, so it will be even more a case of supply and demand.’’ Now Roark has listed a spectacular beachside house at 20 Yinneburra St, Yaroomba, with a price guide of $2.1m. The four-bedroom, four-bathroom house with pool and resort-style outdoor dining area is on 696sq m. Other features include a games room complete with pool table and a Gold Club cinema. “It offers position and privacy,’’ Roark said. “And it’s so close to the beach … people love that.’’
LOCALS MAKING THE MOST OF CONDITIONS Our beach is back … it’s the Noosa like it used to be, and Laguna Real Estate’s Melanie Butcher is enjoying it. “It’s like in February,’’ she said. “We have it to ourselves, and you can get a car park.’’ Apart from that, Melanie has been flat out with sales and inquiries. “We are dealing with local buyers mainly. I don’t think we’ve been busier. “You would think it would be the opposite.
ORIENT DRIVE ACTION Dowling Neylan’s Nathan Howie reports online auction success with the four-bedroom, four-bathroom house with pool at 54 Orient Drive, Sunrise Beach. There were 39 buyer inspections, six registered bidders and 55 on-line bids at the auction in late May. It sold for $2.505m to an ex-pat in the UK returning home an intending to settle the whole family.

“We have been getting a lot of multiple offers at the moment. “There is a shortage of stock. It’s a nice situation to be if you are a seller. “Investment units have suffered a bit due to southern buyers being unable to get up but we are still making sales, from entrylevel to multi-million. “Locals are very active and for first home buyers it is the best opportunity due to lack of southern competition. “The other side is people who have been able to travel are coming to buy, not look. “Having properties open by appointment is a very strong qualifier. “If priced correctly, you will get interest.’’ That was the case with a five-bedroom, two-bathroom house at 9 Creek Rd, Noosaville, that sold for $935,000. Backing on to waterfront parkland, the substantial two-level home offered a dual living opportunity. It attracted multiple offers, and sold to a southern buyer who drove up. A PLACE OF QUALITY Tom Offermann’s Nic Hunter has sold one of two properties in Noosaville he took to auction in late May. The two brand-new, on-trend, freestanding, four-bedroom townhomes at 1 and 2, 20 Nannygai St were the same … but different. One is high on coastal style, the other is Hampton’s inspired. But both have the same floorplan. Nic sold 2/20 Nannygai one week after auction, achieving a price close to the $1.195m it was listed at post auction. That was for the Hamptons style home. No.1 is still available, with a couple of buyers showing interest The local buyer of 2/20 Nanygai was attracted from an investment point of view for its position, Nic said. “Feedback was really strong, purely on the basis of location … 200m from the river. “The market is very strong, just as good as last year. It’s very pleasing. “They are looking for prime locations, and bringing forward their lifetime purchase plans.’’ ●

SPARKLING JEWEL OFFERS ENVIABLE LIVING IF you yearn for the jewel in the crown which is poised on a ridge, appears to hover over the Noosa National Park and boasts bedazzling 180-degree views of Lake Weyba, Mt Coolum, Noosa Springs golf course, the hinterland and beyond, this is it. The brand spanking new, substantial sub-penthouse apartment, in the exclusive privileged and praise-winning Terrace enclave, offers an enviable unparalleled lifestyle of unequivocal luxury and prestige, desired by many, but not always available. Until now. A subtle earthiness establishes its roots in the pale oak flooring which travels from the front door through the hallway, past a study to the expansive open plan living/ dining area. It is obviously designed for sophisticated entertaining. In addition, the smooth indoor/outdoor connectivity to the expansive balcony suggests living the good life continues alfresco. Of course, the casual laid back alternative has those jaw-droppingly beautiful panoramic views. Ceilings throughout are lofty, and bright natural light is the sort that invites itself in
through the banks of sliders. Motorised roller blinds add a practical and decorative aesthetic. Also complementing the core
fundamentals of a truly functional and a well thought-out interior design is the sizeable kitchen with designer pendants, walk-in pantry, integrated Wolf Sub
Zero fridge/freezer, Vintec wine fridge, stone-topped 3.5m island bench, Miele appliances and a lengthy window in place of a splashback. At the end of a second hallway in the north wing, is the chic king master suite with views to the nearby Noosa National Park. The large ensuite has stone floor tiles, a double vanity with a full wall mirror plus translucent glass doors to the shower and toilet. The walk-in wardrobe would suit a fashionista. Two queen-size bedrooms with built-in wardrobes share a bathroom. Serious swimmers and sun worshipers need only take a short pathway to the residents-only glimmering aqua pool. “This outstanding location places you within cooee of everything Noosa Heads,“ comments Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Julie Bengtsson. “There are no through roads, so it is a true residential enclave with an abundance of protected nature including established walkways and bikeways leading to Lake Weyba. It is minutes to Noosa’s Hastings Street, multiple shopping precincts and pristine beaches yet tucked away in a verdant oasis.“ ●

PROPERTY NEWS
ARE WEEKLY REPAYMENTS RIGHT FOR YOU? A little considered but valuable question: what box do I tick when I get a loan – paying weekly, fortnightly, or monthly? Without thinking about it much, you would assume that it doesn’t make a difference when you pay your mortgage as long as it is consistent. But a knowledge of the calendar year might spark your maths skills and help you realise that there is a very clear benefit to paying your mortgage off either weekly or fortnightly. Paying a mortgage off monthly is the most common way people approach their repayments. It might make it easier for people to organise their finances this way, with a single payment being easy to manage and account for. But you can save on both the amount you pay over the length of the loan and how long it takes you to service the loan by making more regular payments, either weekly or fortnightly. The power of the calendar year This is how it works, plain and simple: there are 12 months in a year. So if you pay your mortgage off monthly, then you pay twelve times in a year. For a $500,000 home with a fixed rate of 3.5%, that is twelve payments of $2,245 per month over 30 years. Now if you pay fortnightly, you might assume you would be paying twice a month, so that’s 24 times in a year, right? Wrong! There are 52 weeks in a year so you would be paying off your mortgage over 26 fortnights. That’s an extra 1 month of repayments in a year when you pay by fortnight compared to monthly repayments. The same goes for paying by week, as you will be paying off those extra four weeks that you wouldn’t pay for if you paid 12 monthly repayments. What will you save? For that $500,000 home on 3.5%, your fortnightly repayments will be $1122.50. If you had paid monthly, then in a year you will pay off $26,940 (Monthly repayment of $2,245 x 12). If you pay fortnightly, your repayment by the end of the year will be $29,185 (Fortnightly payment of $1122.50 x 26). That means in a year you will pay off $2,245 more of your loan if you paid fortnightly than monthly. If you pay monthly, than your overall
interest payments on your $500,000 loan will be $308,280 (more than double the original mortgage price!). It is therefore in your interest to repay the loan back as soon as possible to reduce the effect of the interest rates on your repayments. If you pay fortnightly, you will only pay $263,735 in interest, a saving of $44,544 over the length of your loan. On top of this, you will pay off your loan 3 years and 10 months sooner. Paying weekly makes a marginal difference to your overall interest repayments ($257) and you pay the loan off in the same amount of time as if paying fortnightly, so either is a great option. Note: make sure your lender does not organise your fortnightly payments so that it is the annual repayment divided by 26 fortnights. You will still save some money
on interest repayments, but not as much. Pros v Cons Beyond the savings you make to your interest payments and time it takes you to pay off the loan when paying fortnightly/ weekly, there may be benefits to this system if it suits how you prefer to run your finances. A monthly payment may be favourable to those who are paid their salary monthly and want their payments to be automatic on pay day. This means they do not have to think about the mortgage but can run their budget with what is left over. Paying fortnightly or weekly can still be set up automatically if you create a separate account for your mortgage and organise your salary to be automatically transferred
to this account when you a paid, and then organise another automatic payment of your mortgage from that account. Those who are paid weekly may prefer paying weekly, so that they do not risk spending that money that is needed for their loan repayments, while those who are paid irregularly (freelancers etc.) may prefer monthly repayments, as they can more easily organise their finances around a single point rather than having to constantly shift things to cater to a weekly or fortnightly payment. However, it is clear from the interest savings and the time it takes you to service the loan that paying off your mortgage weekly or fortnightly is the preferred option. - realestateview.com.au ●
