House prices
Here's a rather scary stat!!!
"Super assets are 145 per cent of Australia’s GDP, compared to 108 per cent a decade ago – the fastest growth versus GDP of any country. Consultants Deloitte projects that super assets will grow to about $11 trillion by 2043, or close to 200 per cent of Australia’s GDP."
g'day Freeride - unfortunately yes, they've started again, pretty much as soon as I returned home from the winter escape. Damn it! Couple of nasty ones, plenty of smaller ones. Went to an immunologist this morning, will re-run the alpha-gal tests, but he seemed to think it's probably not a big concern given I havent had a full-om anaphylaxis reaction. I imagine the ticks are in full swing at your place too?
and I fully hear you again spookypt - my overall physical and mental health are better when I'm at the beach, swimming as much as possible, and a daily walk on the beach at the very least. I know I will return to that lifestyle in the near future. I'd actually be stoked to be in your position just 5 minutes from the water, but yeah, walking distance is the ultimate hey. Crazy prices. I'd started to consider Tewantin...
Times are getting tough

What happened to that hotel re-development in Crescents. I was there in August and looks like they ran out of money...

$650K for 650m2, from memory.
I drove past it a few times last week. The sloganeering is top notch, leaning heavily on the surf vibe. Wouldn't be surprised if the streets cop some Salt Beach nomenclature. Malibu Road, Rincon way, maybe even Crescent Crescent.
Also, FWIW that little hill in the background, it's just opposite the entrance to the estate on the backside of Big Nobby down to the north end of Goolewah, was the first native title claim on mainland Australia. Now handed over to the NPWS.

You gotta have a chuckle at this type of cheesy marketing. How's the beach scene with the 4WD on it. Looks like the Tullamarine Freeway without asphalt. Not much space for your beach towel and pop up shade tent!!!
Wonder how much they paid the other 500 punters to stay out of the water while they took that longboard footage.

The answer to your question Don is that real estate agents actually have to do some work.

heading east in Middleton, SA, always got increasingly itchy around 'surfers way', as the streets descend from local-surname, to hang-10 dreaming, to tiki coin-toss.. bondi, manly, miami, waikiki, tahiti, tonga.. I guess at least sloppy grey winter onshores suggest an endearingly aspirational irony..
I was tickled when Ulmarra Shire Council and Nymboida Shire Council amalgamated to form Pristine Waters Council.
Pristine Waters!
A lovely bit of marketing completely devoid of cheese or hyperbole!
"But, but, I wanna be effluent!"
"You are effluent darling!"
Salt definitely went overboard with the street names.
I can think of a couple off the top of my head for this Crescent estate.

Has anyone got that old Michael Leunig cartoon showing a real estate agent with a beak on his face trying to sell a piece of sky to two birds standing on his desk?

"Surfing legend Mick Fanning lists luxury home with skate ramp"

Listing:

Expected to go for about 4 million
Not on the beach or no water views, but still a nice location and very big block for the Goldie(at least that close to coast), nice house but nothing too crazy.
Would probably be a 1.5 million dollar property outside of a built up or hip area.

Indo are you suggesting that a place closer to the coast or closer to a desirable area might be more valuable?
No i dont think that needs to be suggested, i think everyone knows that is true.
Was an odd thing for you to point out.
Each to their own but i dont think so.
I often look on realestate.com at different areas but not the Goldie so its kind of interesting to see what 4 million gets you, which while a nice modern house, it's definitely not over the top or even that big (only 3 bed 2 bath)
But yeah a block of that size(1,269m2) that close to the beach must be pretty rare on the Goldie, the block itself must be worth 3 million plus which is crazy.
But then again there is blocks just down the road from me for 1 million a pop half the size with maybe dune views and blue water glimpses at best.(they have been on the market for years and not sold though)
We all know how crazy the real estate market is these days, but it still does blow you away at times.
House prices - going to go up , down or sideways ?
Opinions and anecdotal stories if you could.
Cheers
