Everyones talking about the boom in some Brisbane suburbs and Melbourne. This thread is about throwing thoughts into the wind and puzzling over questions and trying to learn why.
I've been puzzled over this for a while and wandering what really is the cause of this. It seems to early for a major Australian Boom over all, it was only yesterday that affordability was at 24 year highs and I don't imagine a boom hitting the mainstream Australia for a few years yet.
So why are Investors targeting Brisbane and Melbourne? It seems logical that Perth has gone off the boil and investors we're hovering around not knowing where to go or what to do and to where is next, now there going to Brisbane?
Obviously with tipping of the see-saw from stocks to property there might of been a small percentage of this going into property recently which might be the early birds thinking that the stock market has had a great run and they think is the next upswing of the cycle in the property.
I think another reason could be the fact that it has been a few years now since the last major boom finished they say 2003 so that's given people 4 years to be saving deposits and building equity and now looking for somewhere to buy.
And this is the main reason for my post! What percentage of investors are buying in Brisbane and SE Queensland that goes for Melbourne to and how does that compare to the percentage of investors to home buyers in other boom time statistics. Is there web sites with statistics of the percentage of investor buyers to home buyers at different stages of the property cycle?
It seems to me that this recent price increase in Brisbane which I think has been about 10-15% overall could be from just a serge of investors buying into wherever the hive decided to swarm to next and with the nice sun of Queeenland why wouldn't that also be a more compelling natural reason to invest in the sun shine state.
I'm wandering if this mini boom that everyone seems to be getting themselves worked up about is from more a percentage of those cashed up investors from the last boom and buying into somewhere?
