Australias Top Ten Boom Suburbs for 2014
By John Lindeman
Many years of personal investment experience and extensive research have taught me thatbuying properties in areas with the best growth potential at the right price and selling when the
growth is about to cease is a far more rewarding investment strategy than holding and hoping forlong term growth to occur. The reason is simple. Although the Australian residential housingmarket contains around 15,000 suburbs and localities, only a few hundred have short termgrowth potential at any time, and when growth occurs, it is usually not only sweet, but alsoshort.
Using a short term growth strategy enables renovators and developers to achieve additionalprofit from passive growth by buying in the right areas and allows private investors to make thebest possible gains in the shortest possible time with the least amount of risk. The purpose of thisreport is to provide you with information about housing markets in suburbs and towns aroundAustralia with high growth potential over the next few years.
On the following pages youll find my top house market predictions for areas that have excellentgrowth potential in 2014 and beyond. The stats explain what is about to bring change andgrowth to each of these house markets.
For each suburb or town, Ive included:

THE METHODOLOGIES USED INTHIS REPORT
Because housing prices are subject to the same laws of supply and demand as othercommodities, prices change in response to rises and falls in potential buyer and seller numbers.When prices rise they often occur as dramatic growth spurts, especially when stock on the
market is outnumbered by potential buyers. These are known as booms, and growth typicallysubsides as soon as prices have risen to the point where they dampen buyer demand.
Because such growth is sweet but short, only a small percentage of the 15,000 housing marketsuburbs are booming at any one time. By buying in suburbs where prices are set to rise andselling before the growth stops, investors can make significantly higher returns than those whohold and hope, even with the high entry and exit costs that such short term investments tend toincur.
Our research has shown that the only accurate leading suburb level price change indicators aresales and listings as they reflect the true changing nature of supply and demand. By tracking theratio of listings to sales in a suburb and measuring the changing trend between supply and
demand it is possible not only to predict the direction of change in price, but also its likelyoccurrence and intensity. By analysing the relationship between rental demand and supply andmeasuring the trend over time, it is also possible to generate a working methodology to forecasthouse or unit rent changes up to a year ahead.
Putting the theory into practice for investors
In order to test the practical effectiveness and accuracy of short term housing price and rentpredictions produced from the above research, we developed the Property Power Database torecord and track the leading price change indicators. Although there are many ways to identifygeographic areas, we used suburbs as the base geographic unit. We also used houses (usuallyincluding townhouse and duplexes) and units (including flats and apartments) to cover all types
of housing in line with how the major data providers, the ABS and government sales data isprovided.
The Property Power Database collates and analyses the changing relationships between demandindicators such as asking prices, sales, listings, asking rents and rental vacancies in combinationwith demand dynamics such as population, demographic, finance, economic and climaticinformation in every one of 10,000 suburbs with houses and 5,000 suburbs with units to measureand interpret the intending behaviour of buyers, sellers and investors in housing markets andthen predict how, when and where these are likely to affect housing prices and rents in the shortterm.
The database employs predictive and patented algorithms developed by John Lindeman toprovide highly accurate short term rent and price change predictions for houses and units in anysuburb in Australia. We tested and refined the predictive algorithms for several years and it wasnot until we had achieved a consistent short term accuracy rate of over 90% in the rent or pricedirection forecast that we released the first of our highly popular and successful best 30 and best20 predictive reports for states, capital cities and regions around Australia.
Before we release these reports, we apply a series of filters to improve their accuracy andusefulness to investors by removing suburbs which we have identified as outliers, that is, wherelocal housing market conditions are such that the predicted change in prices or rents is less likelyto occur, or where the opportunities for investors are otherwise impeded in some way.

HOW WEDESCRIBE THE VARIOUS TYPESOF HOUSING MARKETS
The Property Power Database output tables categorise the current and predicted types of housingmarkets in each suburb into one of five possible types of markets called stressed, buyer, neutral,seller orboom. It is the ratio of listings to sales that determines the current real time type of
market and it is the way in which this ratio changes over time, or trend that determines thepredicted change in direction.
Not only does this apply to any housing market anywhere in Australia, the database alsocalculates both the degree of potential price change and the period of time during which suchchanges are expected to occur. The Property Power Database also utilises an adaptation of thissystem to provide rental forecasts for houses or units in any suburb.
The five types of buyer/seller markets
Each suburb has a current type of buyer/seller housing market and a predicted type ofbuyer/seller housing market which can both be placed somewhere on the following scale:
Stressed markets are suburbs characterised by many potential sellers and few intendingbuyers. Prices are likely to be falling by more than 10% per annum and changes tend to takeseveral years to occur because of the large surplus of properties in the market waiting to be sold.If the prediction is for stressed market conditions to continue, prices will keep falling by morethan 10% per annum until and if the market eventually changes to a buyer market.
Buyer marketsare suburbs where there are more potential sellers than intending buyers andtheres a tendency for prices to fall by 10% or less per annum. Due to the surplus of propertieslisted for sale on the market, these markets are slow moving and the change to a neutral orstressed market can take up to a year or more to occur.
Neutral marketsare suburbs where the numbers of potential sellers and intending buyers isequally balanced, and there is little opportunity for other than small price falls or rises to occurwhile such conditions continue. It usually takes from six months to a year for neutral markets tochange to buyer or seller markets.
Seller marketsare suburbs characterised by fewer potential sellers than intending buyers andthere is continual pressure on prices to rise, although the rise is usually 10% per annum or less.
Because of the low numbers of properties listed for sale on the market, these suburbs canchange to boom markets or revert to neutral markets in six months or less if conditions change.
Boom markets are suburbs with few potential sellers and many intending buyers. Prices arelikely to be rising by more than 10% per annum and will continue to rise at this rate if theprediction is for boom conditions to continue. Because there are typically few properties listed forsale in such suburbs, they have the most price volatility and can revert to seller markets withinthree months if buyer demand decreases.
Notethat these five types of buyer/seller housing markets can apply either to house or to unitmarkets which should always be considered separately. A suburb may simultaneously have ashortage of houses on the market and a surplus of units listed for sale and they could be trending
in different directions. All the suburbs in this report have been analysed for their house marketsonly, and their unit markets may not perform in the same way.

The three types of rental markets
Every suburb has a current type of rental market and a predicted type of rental market which canboth be placed somewhere on the following scale:
Surplus rental marketshave a surplus of investor owned stock compared to the number ofrenters in the suburb. This means that there will be more private rental vacancies than thedemand from renters for them, indicating that rents may fall unless there is a change in thenumber of renters or investors in the suburb.
Balanced rental marketsare suburbs where there are equal numbers of investor owned stockand renters. This indicates that there is no pressure on rents to rise or fall while the equilibrium
is maintained.
Shortage rental marketsare where the demand for rental properties exceeds the supply ofinvestor owned stock, leading to rent rises.
Note that these three types of rental housing markets can apply either to house or to unitmarkets which should always be considered separately. A suburb may simultaneously have ashortage of house rentals and a surplus of unit rentals and they could be trending in differentdirections. All the suburbs in this report have been analysed for their house markets only, andtheir unit markets may not perform in the same way.

Estimated current median selling price
This is the estimated median of house prices currently being sold in each suburb, which is theprice that an investor would be expected to pay for an average house. Unlike published datawhich can be months old by the time it is available, this is a real time estimate of the medianselling price at the time the analysis is conducted.
Estimated number of properties for sale
This is an estimate of the total number of houses for sale in each suburb at the time the analysisis conducted.
Current housing market
This column shows you that the current type of housing market in each suburb for houses isneutral.
Number of months before any change is likely
This shows you the number of months before the change from neutral to boom is likely tooccur in each suburb.
Housing market prediction
This column shows you that the predicted type of housing market in each suburb for houses isboom.
BEWELL INFORMED
In theory, if the numbers told the entire story our predictions would be always 100% accurate,but in fact just over 90% of the suburbs we have analysed moved in the direction forecast. Whilecomputational errors could account for a small number of these anomalies, and we removeknown outliers from consideration to improve the accuracy of our predictions, there are manyother factors which can impact actual housing market growth and the performance of yourproperty investments which you should take into account as part of your due diligence. Some ofthe most common traps that investors may fall into when choosing an area, narrowing down theirsearch and then buying a property are:
Buying with your heart instead of your head Assuming that units will perform in the same manner
Assuming that nearby suburbs will perform the same as the suburb in the report Not checking the causes of local housing demand Using information that is out of date
Relying on hearsay and biased opinion Buying in an atypical part of the suburb Buying the wrong type of property for rental, renovation or resale Buying a property whose price is far higher or lower than the suburb median Paying more than fair market value for the property Selling at the wrong time
While many of these can be avoided with some common sense, you should always satisfy
yourself that you have conducted your own on the ground research as the consequences couldseriously impact the success of your investment.

THE CAUSES OF POTENTIALGROWTH INTHE TOP TENSUBURBS
There are three key dynamics which cause housing price changes. The movement of people intoa suburb increases the demand for housing and it is the availability, need for and cost of housingfinance that transforms such demand into purchases or rentals. If there are shortages of housing
stock for sale where people want to buy, then prices will rise and if there shortages of rentalvacancies where they prefer to rent, then rents will rise. These three key demand dynamicsdetermine why, where and when housing prices will rise or fall. To narrow down the list ofpossible price growth candidates from the 15,000 suburbs with houses and units, we haveisolated those suburbs where the key dynamics are showing the highest potential for pricegrowth to occur.
With banks increasingly willing and able to provide low cost housing finance, the number ofhomeowners upgrading to more suitable homes in a better preferred suburb has already drivenhouse prices upwards in many capital city suburbs, but we have discovered some suburbs for thisreport where price growth is imminent, but has yet to take place. We have also uncovered some
first home buyer suburbs where increasing demand is likely to lead to house price growth.
Growth is already underway in those parts of our nation which are now fully recovered from thelast drought, particularly in the irrigated agricultural regions along the Murray/Darling andGoulburn River catchments. The main industries in these regions are horticultural, such asirrigated orchards, vineyards along with dairy farming and recovery from drought has given manytowns a new lease of life which is being assisted by the lower Australian dollar exchange rate.
The tourism industry is also becoming a growth industry in many regional areas. Away from thecoast, increasing numbers of houseboats and restored paddle steamers ply the mainwatercourses, while smaller craft explore the rivers and lakes. New life is being breathed intomany coastal resorts by the growing numbers of Chinese middle class tourists, cashed up andready to discover Australia. Restaurants, hotels, motels, caravan parks, shops, clubs, touristdevelopments and recreational enterprises are starting to receive the benefits.
One fifth of Australias households are comprised of people over 55, living in well-establishedsuburbs where their final housing repayments were made years ago. The majority of boomersare now reaching the point at which they are making some hard decisions about their futures.Retirement age is creeping up for more and more each year and boomers born in the immediatepost-war years are already aged 65 and over. Many will move soon and wherever they relocateto, the impact on local housing prices is likely to be substantial. These are likely to have excellentretail, recreational and entertainment facilities and their new homes will be attractively priced byway of comparison to the selling price of their old family homes. As each new destination isdiscovered, a few arrivals will be followed by many more, until prices become too high and thesucceeding waves of retirees move to nearby cheaper locations causing a price ripple effect.
In each of the following ten suburbs one of more of these fundamental changes in demand, suchas increased numbers of first home buyers or upgraders, rural recovery, growth in tourism ornew retiree destinations has the potential to cause high house price growth over the next yearand beyond.
The benefit to readers of this report is that an explanation of what is likely to cause house pricegrowth over the next year or two is provided for each suburb. By conducting your own on theground research, you can confirm whether the potential for price increases is justified, and then
decide whether to invest before the growth starts and ride the wave of price rises as they occur.

SUBURB 1:COFFS HARBOUR, NEWSOUTH WALES HOUSES
Location
According to the CSIRO, Coffs Harbour has one of the most liveable climates in the world. The
city is located on the north coast of New South Wales, about 540 km from Sydney.
Local household demographics
Coffs Harbour has a population of around 25,000, with the median age of 42 being a few yearshigher than the state median age. The main industries of the area are semi-tropical horticulture,particularly bananas and tourism, with a higher than average percentage of residents employedin the recreational and accommodation sectors. There has also been a noticeable rise in thenumber of people in the 55 to 65 age group in recent years, indicating the growing popularity ofthe region as a retirement destination. It is this change which is the key to the citys house pricegrowth potential as the median house price is extremely affordable for retirees.
Type of housing market
Around 80% of the dwellings are houses and townhouses and there is a high percentage ofrental accommodation in Coffs Harbour with 40% of all dwellings being rented. Few of these areholiday lettings, as the unoccupancy rate of housing is lower than the state average.

DATA SOURCES USED INTHISREPORT
Researching the housing market
We continuously analyse potential changes in the nature and dynamics of the housing marketwhich may be caused or influenced by both government and private sector policies, strategies,plans and initiatives and gratefully acknowledge the following sources:

Measuring housing market dynamics
We analyse population, demographic, household, housing, finance, economic and resourcerelated data from information provided to the general public by the Housing Industry Association,Australian Bureau of Statistics, Bureau of Meteorology, Australian Bureau of Agricultural andResource Economics. This data is then adapted and aggregated at suburb level to determine howchanges in demand and supply are trending for both rentals and owner occupied housing. Inparticular, we acknowledge the following source:

Analysing housing market indicators
Many housing market indicators such as sale prices, weekly rents, price and rent movements arelagging indicators. That is, they provide information about past buyer, seller and renter activitiesand while there may be useful lessons or patterns in such behaviour that we can learn from, theydo not point the way to the future because they represent the results, not the causes which
brought about those results. Even if this data were predictively useful, these results are publishedmonths after the events have occurred due to the time it takes to settle contracts and the needfor the data to be collected and collated before it is published. Although this data can be usedfor private purposes, there is also the matter of copyright, which further restricts the manner inwhich such data can be used by third parties.
Our approach is to use only leading indicators to forecast renter and buyer demand trends suchas current median asking rents, current rental vacancies, current median asking prices, estimatedcurrent median selling prices, plus current sales and listings which we aggregate from publicallyadvertised property listings and rental vacancies. Each listing or rental vacancy advertiser onlyhas agreements with certain real estate agents and property managers to advertise theirproperties, so the percentage of the total that they advertise will vary across localities within
states, across states and also with each advertisers reach of the market.

We have conducted extensive analyses to estimate the total listings, rental vacancies and salesthat occur at any time in any suburb based on the advertised numbers of each advertiser. Insimilar fashion, we independently calculate current estimated median selling prices and medianasking rents for any suburb by deriving and then aggregating median asking prices and askingrents from currently advertised property listings and rental vacancies and applying adjustments toreflect current market conditions.
