So the Australian real estate market is broken as shit, massive artificial bubble created by socialism (government heavily limits land available for development, and creates artificial supply and demand) and homes in Aus are currently worth like a billion dollerydoos, obviously this isnt gonna last very long, so lets have a discussion on how long we think this market will last before crashing, and how best to capitalise on it

Nice idea OP, but people have been saying this for years. The fact of the matter is that with immigration and population growth in our capitals there will always be a strong demand for housing. I agree the market is completely overinflated, which is why I’m moving to a regional city and building a new home for half what you’d pay in a capital and my commute will be similar anyway. If you have money in apartments I’d bail out now as these will drop in value (already are) but houses on actual blocks of land will plateau.
I know it’s a stretch but look at New York as an example. There’ll always be enough rich fags to buy up the real estate in capital cities.

>artificial bubble created by socialism

Are you dumb nigga? It’s been held up by the overwhelming torrent of 220,000 migrants every year that our country allows to walk into our country and buy property. It has been over 200,000/year for years now, even worse under the Coalition.

A lot of these migrants are cashed up investors and wealthy families. This creates a market of really high housing demand. Boomers love this shit because they get to cash out as practically millionaires just from buying a modest western Sydney home over 20 years ago that they earned from their modest working class job.

It’s extremely bad for young people though, especially ones with boomer parents that are squandering all their wealth on Thailand and Bali trips and have no intention on saving their wealth for the next generation.

Most worryingly, not only is the real-estate market operating under the assumption of never-ending growth as a result of mass-migration. So is our whole economy.

The flipping of houses is the only thing which is keeping the economic engine from stalling right now as manufacturing and mining projects dry up and lots of people are being forced transition from full-time work to casual and part-time work in the services, retail and hospitality.

What’s worse is that because of this huge influx of migrants, it’s also creating an overly competitive jobs market with reduced wages and bargaining power for Australian workers. This has reduced wage growth. Fresh migrants from third-world shitholes like India are more than willing to earn half of what an Australian would expect for the same work just to have the opportunity to live here.

The high social-capital Australia once had is also slipping. Once you import Asia and Africa into your major cities, they begin to resemble the major cities of Asia and Africa in terms of cleanliness. Melbourne and Sydney smell like shit.

Don’t get me started on the traffic.

>> No.10581701

it's not as bad as it seems. Loans are reasonably regulated by APRA and artificially restricted land supply reduces urban sprawl which makes existing infrastructures cost efficient

Somewhat agree, both Aus and NZ economies would be in a hole without Chinese investors buying property. They buy property not just to flip but as long term holds and it has collectively pumped the market. Even citizens can only have leaseholds on land in China so they look elsewhere for freehold.

How many young cashed up Chinese do you see in big citities with Mercs and BMWs. They send their children over to live in the property and put it in their names so they can avoid CGT once sold. It is essentially then an owner occupied property. It's smart but wait until the Chinese economy tanks hard and money pulls out of property in AU and NZ - it will be dire.

there is a difference between an engineered bubble like pump and dumps and 'normal' bubbles. in the example of real estate where there are potentially hundreds of billions of dollars with thousands of different participants, it becomes harder to manipulate simply because the amount of capital one has to have to manipulate the market becomes exceedingly difficult. but you are right, some bubbles can be predicted if they are engineered.

The problem is zoning in some respects but it isn't the entire picture.

Negative Gearing massively fucks the housing market as it makes speculative investing in housing extremely non-risky so boomer spend all their super on buying multiple homes.

Australia has one of the worst venture capital markets in the world, there is very little money for business but it's awash for real estate money so it's very easy to get into real estate and encourage from the top to bottom of society.

NIMBY/Overzoning means that housing supply is limited. This is a bigger problem in the inner suburbs as you still have these large block suburban houses, literally 5 minute drives from CBDs, when those entire areas should be medium-high density housing. NIMBY's do not want any urban densification in their innercity suburbs. Land release on the edges of already extremely stretched cities is a terrible idea.

Developers artificially restrict supply by only selling like 1/10th of the housing/apartment stock that already exists, by releasing it in timed batches.

Further urban sprawl in Australia is terribad. Australia already has some of the largest cities in the world in terms of land area, yet it's cities have extremely low population.

The solution tohorrible urban sprawl is not better zoning however. In Australia we have higher standards and expectations in living conditions. We do not wish to live in urban shoebox apartments, we wish to live on our own slice of land with modest privacy and space to raise a family.

Rather than importing 200,000+ people a year that are going to create the necessity for soulless, modern, high-density and medium-density dwellings, we should be sticking to our native-born population who have a birth rate at about replacement rate, are more inclined to live in regional areas and would not be creating more urban sprawl.

22 here, bought my first home this year. I had to spend almost $90,000 straight out of my savings to make 20% deposit, fees and other costs. Bought a home for $415k which is a steal for only 25 mins from the city where I live. 900 square meter block, two stories, two bathrooms and a pool with a nice backyard and surrounded by a nature reserve. Feelsgoodman but also cognisant of the fact that I have a fucking mortgage to pay off.

Want to nail it as quick as possible, might buy the shitty run-down lot next to me if it ever goes up for sale, would be reasonably easy to snag it for $250k, do it up with around $30k, then rent it out til it's close enough to payed off after like 15 years and keep it as a guest house. Or simply demolish the fuckin thing and expand my block. Who knows.

But I agree about the financial irresponsibility part. I spent my entire life poor as fuck, watching my parents struggle. For years I worked hard as hell. From my 14th birthday, it's never been more than 3 weeks that I haven't had a job. Worked 2 jobs and ran my own business while studying at uni just to save up enough to move interstate for my current job, and buy a house. Feels good to know I made smart financial decisions, feels disgusting to see the amount of septum-pierced "buy me pizza / squeeze muh butt" fuckgirls and "fuck yeah just got a loan for my new commodore and TV and fridge and computer and phone" retards rolling around thinking they'll ever get into the market doing absolutely f u c k a l l with their time.

Agreed, but nobody really knows of the power that the Chinese government has to prop their economy up. This could go on another 10 years. Anyone heavily investing in Chinese stocks right now is a retard, but anyone shorting them is more of a retard.

The level of oversight is laughable. You're basically looking through a thwarted piece of glass held up by the Communist party. They will do everything in their power to maintain control, even if that means allowing companies to blatantly lie on their income statements/balance sheets, because they have connections to party officials. The party will go as far to place their students in US schools to spread their ideology. They are even starting Chinese American Communist Party clubs in Universities.

Remember, the communist party is filled with snakes. They are your enemies. You have nothing to gain by trusting them. We can even go into the legal structure of these companies which can leave your shares worthless overnight. There's a good reason Buffett avoids Chinese stocks like the plague.

What you cunts fail to realize is that all investments are not equal. You buy when a bubble pops or when a bubble is about to begin, not when valuations are higher than they have ever been in 100 years.

You may have some legitimacy in that there are retarded, lazy poor people blaming others for not being able to buy a home. But there are also people who have saved very well during their 20s and 30s and still can't afford a home.

A boomer during the 70s and 80s only had to cobble together 3 years of their annual salary to buy a home outright, AND they were assisted with 10-15% savings rates.

It's simple. You wait until it pops.
Then you buy after the crash.

You never short the 'top'.. people are stupid and make continue buying anyway. The market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent.

I feel bad for you, you've been a wagie trading all your youth away for a pittance for the last 8 years, and now you have a mortgage you will be paying off for decades and the property market is tinkering on the edge of a crash.

Those people you looked down on might soon be looking down on you anon. Don't be too smug. And don't get me wrong, I am also financially responsible, never live beyond my means, always buy cheap pre owned cars, saving my money and investing. But christ the fact you actually bought a house, it makes me think you are just as fucking dumb as the retards who takes a loan for a new commodore and a tv.

You know what you should do. Go rent your house out right now and move back in with your parents. It's the only thing that will save you because you seem very financially irresponsible to be buying a home in the current climate. Did you do it to look cool so you can say you have a house at 22? It's just your way of having the latest iphone. A home is a liability not an asset. It's only an asset if its putting money in your pocket.

No asset bubble goes up as far as housing has in Australia without a significant reversal.

Sydney is already down 5% for the year, is that what you call a slight reversal? 10%? 20%? 40%?

no it isn't, Sydney mar 2017 quarter to mar 2018 quarter is only down 0.5%. largely due to the increased lending restrictions and interest rate hikes. the market is already cooling down, you think the market will drop 30% now to make up for the fact that there has been double digit growth since 2013?

with the priced out youth its impossible for any support to keep property price up, its more profitable for entrepreneurs to move overseas for higher tax rates and lower purchase price, because wage stagnation is preventing youth from becoming buyers, yes investors will keep prices up for a while, while they burst brain cells and fomo, but the only support for the current price are chinese investors that no longer are making a heavy profit

>> No.10591193

>>10591085
the youth do not matter. the only thing that matters is the inflow of capital to the market. as long as Sydney is desirable destination for wealthy people. even if the youth cannot afford it today, all the elderly who do own the homes will pass it down to their children and concentrate the properties within their own families. unless there is a situation like a natural disaster that makes Sydney one of the least desirable places to live, property prices in the long run, will be stubbornly high.

>> No.10591262

>>10591193
Except without buyers to support the current market or make home investment profitable, theres no reason for investors to buy in, and with youth being so poor now, rent prices are dropping already, with less return on investment, and less people able or willing to support the current price, the value of homes will inevitably crash as investors lose interest

>> No.10591337

>>10591262
no reason for investors to buy in will mean prices will stagnate, not crash. as long as nothing forces people to sell en mass, there will be no large correction.

because of the rising prices new developments have been focused on the luxury market where the margins are higher. to capture capital from people below that market investors will simply create and market non-luxury properties to them. detached houses will make way for non-luxury multi-family properties which will still drive up house prices but allow lower wagers to buy into the market while still profiting developers.

a crash requires an event that forces people to sell, barring war or natural disaster, i don't see it happening.

if investors cannot run a profit, they will sell, as land is high cost right now it is only profitable to make high value constructions, as Australian policy is to heavily limit land available for development, without profit this stress will drive investors to sell early, while families sell a little later as the panic hits them, I think a 60-65% correction is in the books, and the bubble itself is obvious to anyone who looks (I own a 7 bedroom inner city home in the USA in a lower middle class area, it was only 139,000 dollars, meanwhile, in Australia, homes in mining ghost towns with 2 bedrooms cost a good 150,000 dollars)

such a market only makes sense from within australia, with people unable or unwilling to pay the high prices, the prices will inevitably be forced down to meet support, especially with so many investor sellers, and with an oversaturation of the sellers market, the prices will fall below that support, as investors panic and sell their portfolios

investors cannot turn a profit? in what way? by rental income or by development? if by development tent no new properties will be bought to further development if there is no profit to be had. if by rental income, what makes you think people will not continue to rent out for a profit now through airbnb or long term? the individual circumstances may vary and there is no statistics to ascertain how leveraged people with rental properties are and how much rent must fall for them to consider selling. that is a wish fulfillment belief.

unless you can point to me what can cause people, typical homeowners, to sell on mass, i cannot see why there would be a sharp correction. even with new interest rates and more stringent lending limits, people refuse to sell en mass. prices YOY have dropped 0.5%

well, we all make our own bets and i'm betting on the fact that some markets are highly desirable locations that people will always want to pay top dollar for.

people who did not buy 3-4 years ago, unless they have a windfall, will be priced out of those homes they could have afforded at that time.

well first of all, your statement is speculative in itself. second of all, what is the scenario you are presenting? 3-4 years ago would i have bought into a property in Sydney or bought property in Chicago? I would've bought into Sydney if i was Australian and I would have bought into Chicago if i lived in Chicago. IF i was Australian, I would not have bought an investment property in Chicago because first, it's far as fuck away and i'd have to pay someone to manage the property. secondly I don't like Chicago because I know nothing about it so i'm not going to put money in some far flung place i have no knowledge of.

in hindsight had i invested into Sydney 3-4 years ago, my property would be up 70% meanwhile in Chicago the median price is barely up 10%
