Australian Investors retreat from housing market

Best Asia real estate editor's comments;

Just one more piece of proof that investors are pulling out of the Australian real estate market in droves.

And just one more reason why I predict that Melbourne and Sydney Brisbane and many other cities are heading for major downturn in real estate and it won't be pretty.

Baby boomers who want to get out at the top should get out now and take their money invested and villas were even property in Bali and in fact can retire for 62% less than it would cost in most major strain cities.

I will be talking about this trend as series of seminars in Bali Sydney and Auckland over the next two months please see details following this article

Housing finance commitments fell sharply across Australia last month, with lending to investors hitting fresh lows and driving declines around the country.

Coming off a six-month high in February, the value of total housing finance fell 4.4 per cent to $31.89 billion in March, seasonally adjusted, data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics shows.

Investors' share of new lending in dollar terms was at a six-year low.

Loans to investors dropped sharply, down 9 per cent month-on-month.

ANZ senior economist Daniel Gradwell said investors made up just 42 per cent of lending nationwide, their lowest share since 2012.

" lowest share since 2012"

"While this result pre-dates APRA's recent decision to remove the 10 per cent 'speed limit' on investor borrowing, it is hard to see a re-acceleration in the investor segment with sentiment clearly subdued," Mr Gradwell said.

JP Morgan analyst Henry St John said tighter regulations had sharply adjusted the new lending market, with investors' share of new lending in dollar terms also at six-year lows.

Mr St John said higher loan-to-income lending standards recently announced by APRA, and potential new requirements resulting from the banking royal commission could drive further falls in investor lending throughout 2018.

"The significantly larger proportion of investor activity that occurs at high loan-to-income ratios implies that as lending criteria continue to be tightened, this will be a meaningful headwind for lending and credit growth," Mr St John said in a note on Friday.

The number of home loan approvals for owner occupiers fell 2.2 per cent for the month, disappointing market forecasts of a 1.5 per cent decline.


The national value of new home loan approvals for owner-occupiers was down 1.9 per cent, to $20.1 billion.

New lending to owner-occupiers fell across all major states outside Tasmania, which rose 1.9 per cent and the ACT which gained 2.6 per cent.

In seasonally adjusted data from the ABS, South Australia led declines, down 8.6 per cent, NSW down 2.9 per cent, and Victoria down 1.5 per cent.

According to PT. Bali Affordable Lifestyles International. (PT. B.A.L.I.) who have managed award winning PT. Bali Luxury Villas for the past 13 years, an ever increasing numbers of Baby Boomers are retiring in Bali each year. 



Fact is that 25% of the world’s population, born between 1946 and 1964 labelled as the baby boom generation are now retiring. 

A large portion of those boomers are currently living near Bali will want to retire here adding a whole new demand for Bali real estate for the next five to ten years.

PT. B.A.L.I. reveals that of the 55 Luxury villas that they manage less than 5% were occupied by Baby Boomers 13 years ago. Now over 25% are full-time retirees.

www.baliluxuryvillasales.com
P.T. B.A.L.I.’s research department has recently concluded that in the coming years Asian and Australian baby boomers, within a few hours flight from Bali will choose Bali as their retirement location. 


For example, in Australia it is estimated that 25% of its 25 million population are baby boomers. 

That means there are going to be 6,250,000 boomers seeking less-expensive, more comfortable retirement locations soon. 
According to a recent poll "50 % of Australians are now buying outside of  Australia". Bali will certainly be on their short list.

"50 % of Australians buying outside Australia"

Add another estimated  1% of the 1,250,000 New Zealand Baby Boomers and Bali may have a huge increase in real estate demand from these two counties alone.

If Bali only receives 1%, of those Boomers that is 6,250 Australian and 1,250 New Zealand baby boomers seeking to buy or lease a Bali home for the next five to twenty years. 

Add to that new demands from the 1 % of boomers from Japan, China, Korea, Taiwan, Singapore and Jakarta who want to retire in Bali that is another 7.5 Million buyers.

You don't have a P.H.D. in Economics to conclude that these new demands on Bali's limited real estate supply will drive demand and prices through the roof the next five to ten years.

The reasons for Australian’s retiring in Bali are numerous. As one long time Australian resident of PT Bali Luxury Villas in Sanur stated, “it just doesn’t get any better than Bali”. The cost of living that is estimated to be over 60 % less than Australia is one of the biggest draws






Here are the main reasons Baby Boomers are retiring in Bali.
  1. According to research competed this month by PT. B.A.L.I., Overall Bali is 62% less expensive for baby boomers to live than in Sydney or Auckland.
  2. Home prices are 60% to 70% less to rent, lease or purchase.
  3. Transportation is also 60% to 70% less. 
  4. Proximity to Australia, 6 ½ hrs. to Sydney, 2 ½ hrs. to Perth or Darwin.
  5. Bali’s crime rate Index is 30 versus Sydney at 38, or 21 % less.
  6. Great year-round Average temperature of 30°C.
  7. Balinese are some of the friendliest and most honest people in the world.
