Gunn takes great strides as the place to be
Property close to the Darwin CBD, above, is always popular with buyers. Gunn, above left, is good buying in the city of Palmerston.
Darwin is the best
place in Australia
for real estate for
the foreseeable
future and
Australia is the
best-placed
country in the
world to ride out
what looks to be
the likely turmoil
of the euro crisis
Real estate agentROXLEYPEARCE ,of RayWhite Central, picks what’s hot andwhat’s not for 2012
HOT ’BURBS
PALMERSTON
Gunn is the closest newstyle suburb to the CBD,but was viewed when itwas developed in the late1990s to the mid-2000s asbeing the the poor cousinto Fairway Watersat Durack.
Sale prices were less.But Gunn has virtually
the same infrastructure,— such as lakes, parksand walkways — asDurack boasts and it’seasy to make the walk tothe city centre.
With Palmerston start-ing to suffer from sub-urban sprawl, Gunn is asuburb that is going to in-crease in desirability.
DARWIN
Millner is often men-tioned in the sleeper sub-urbs published by inter-state property gurus andthis is still the case.
Nightcliff is financiallyunachievable for a lot ofbuyers and the averageex-Housing Commissiontype ground-level housein the neighbouring sub-urb of Rapid Creek is get-ting up to and over the$600,000 mark.
That is driven by mo-tivated parents who wanttheir kids to attend theprestigious EssingtonSchool at Rapid Creek.
This is forcing familieswith the same ambitionfor their kids to look toMillner as a home basethat is more affordable
and still close enough forthe kids to commute toand from Essington.
You can still buyreasonably priced homesin this area from mid-$400s to mid-$500s.
HOUSES THAT
SELL BEST
Houses that are marketready and have had main-tenance and updates car-ried out will outsell the‘‘renovator’s special’’every time.
People are busy justgetting on with their livesand their leisure time isprecious, so the less theyhave to do to the newhouse when they move in,the more attractive it is to
the market place. Newkitchens and bathroomswill always attract Mumand an easy maintenance,finished garden will winover Dad.
Improvements such asa fresh coat of paint, split-system airconditonersthroughout, wardrobes inthe bedrooms and goodfencing are things thatbuyers rate highly.
PREDICTIONS
Darwin is the best placein Australia for real es-tate for the foreseeable fu-ture and Australia is thebest-placed country in the
world to ride out whatlooks to be the likely tur-moil of the euro crisis.
There should be asteady appreciation inDarwin as the local econ-omy is strengthened bydevelopments coming inthe oil and gas industryand the need to focus onthe north of Australiafrom a humanitarian anddefence perspective.
There is a chance of fur-ther interest rate cuts inthe coming months, butthe banks may not wantto pass these on to mort-gage holders.
The only black spot forthe future of the real es-tate sector is if the strug-
gling European coun-tries, such as Greece,default on loans.
This will have aknock-on effect as oth-er countries become in-volved. It may also af-fect the bankingbusiness globally andthe banks worldwidemay face higher bor-rowing costs.
This may lead to lessmoney that banks areable to lend borrowers,which would mean lessbuyers able to buy,which would meanmore supply and lessdemand — and thatcould lead to a poten-tial softening of prices.
