Queensland Housing Market

There is so much happening in the home loan market at present that it could be a good time to refinance as the Federal Government is encouraging home owners to do. However, if you are considering refinance of your home loan it could be a good time to reassess your whole financial situation with a view of reducing your total monthly repayments.

As reported by Jason Bryce in The Sunday Mail on 09.01.2011 - "We have seen our biggest month in home loan applications for November following the rate rise" said consumer advocate Michelle Hutchinson, from financial comparison site CityRate. "We recorded a 231 percent increase in November for home loan applications compared to October. December was up 224 percent compared to December 2009."

The Commonwealth Bank is advertising a standard variable mortgage rate of 7.81 per cent, the highest of the big banks. Even if you could reduce your loan by on half of a per cent on a $300,000 loan you could save around $29,086 over a 25 year loan period.

St George is now accepting rent as form of "genuine savings' with written verification from a Licenced Property Manager/Agent. Tier two of acceptable deposit sources now include bonuses, dividends and commission payments, inheritance, tax refunds and net proceeds of sale of non real estate assets - conditions apply.

Queensland Housing Market Still Weak

Michelle Hele, Property Editor of the Courier Mail reported on 2 January -

"BIS Shrapnel's senior project manager Angie Zigomanis said that while other states had seen a pick-up in 2010, Queensland's (housing) market was still very weak. The Queensland market collapsed a little later than other states, so it was natural it would take a little longer to bounce back."

He also said "I think the year will start off fairly subdued, but I think as 2011 wears on you will start to see first home buyer demand pick up again, probably in the second half of the year. We expect the interest rate environment to be a little more steady this year with only one or two more rises so people will start to gain a bit more confidence."

In the same issue of the Courier Mail it was reported that "St George, according to a major broker 'will accept rent as a form of savings for a home deposit if there is evidence of a minimum of 12 months continuous satisfactory rental hsitory'." More on this when St George issue their policy.

Citibank have been the first to send our rates and updates for the New Year and have said to stay tuned for their NEW promotions for 2011. I will let you know when the first promotion is announced.
