Brambletye homestead listed in Tasmania

Airlie House in the Melbourne suburb of Yarraville set a recent record price when it sold for $3.28 million.
The heritage listed property at <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-vic-yarraville-122200498" target="_blank">31-33 Somerville Road</a> sale price was $900,000 higher than the prior Yarraville record of $2.38 million set earlier this year at <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-vic-yarraville-121760386" target="_blank">82 Stephens Street.</a>
It was known as Airlie House, then later The Elms due to the trees lining the property boundary.
The vine-covered four-bedroom home was built in 1859 by Footscray councillor, factory owner and solicitor Stephen Stephens.
The home was offered for sale for the first time in more than 70 years.
Yesterday the Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews announced that a three-kilometre twin tunnel will be built beneath the suburb of Yarraville, as part of a project to provide Melburnians a second river crossing to the West Gate Bridge.
The tunnel is longer than expected and forms part of the $5.5 billion Western Distributor project.
Rob Caniglia, the property’s listing agent from Nicholas Scott Real Estate Yarraville, said the new owner was weighing up their options for the site.
The 1866 square-metre site attracted interest from prospective medical and childcare centres as well as residential developers and private buyers.
At weekend auction 11 Neylon Strert, Yarraville sold for $1.48 million with the charming period home listed through Village Real Estate agent Huss Saad on the market at $1.35 million.
Three developers fought once it was on the market. The 870 sqm holding was offered for the first time since its 1954 construction.

Anytime auctioneer Damien Cooley raised his gavel, more bids came until <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-nsw-double+bay-122971786" target="_blank">27 South Avenue, Double Bay</a> finally fetched $3.17 million at weekend auction.
<div>
<div>
<div>
There were 10 third and final moments over the 12 minute onsite event.
But the humble home owned by late colourful, controversial Commonwealth Games chief Arthur Tunstall that last sold for £420 seventy years ago wasn't Sydney's highest.
That was over at Strathfield, the regular Saturday Sydney auction stadium, where a four-bedroom home at <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-nsw-strathfield-122804438" target="_blank">17 Firth Avenue</a> sold for $4.12 million through Georges Ellis and Co.
They had the 16 registered bidders with 55 rapid fire bids for the single storey home on its 1280 sqm block with pool offered for the first time offered in over 30 years.
</div>
</div>
</div>
The Sydney home auction market has continued to strengthen over recent weekends.
</div>
<div>Domain had the Sydney clearance rate at 75.4 per cent, which was higher than the election weekend’s initial 73.5 per cent result, though below the boom-time 80 per cent reported on the same weekend last year.</div>
</div>
<div>
Relatively low auction numbers continue to characterise the Sydney market, according to Domain Group's chief economist, Dr Andrew Wilson with strong competition among buyers.
Just 419 auctions were listed on Saturday, well below the 605 auctioned over the same weekend last year. 
<div>
Melbourne reported a preliminary clearance rate of 75.7 per cent on Saturday, which was the highest rate in nearly three months, below the 79.2 per cent reported over the same weekend last year.
Melbourne clearance rates are now trending upwards compared to the same time last year, Dr Wilson noted.
More than 530 Melbourne homes were listed for auction at the weekend, similar to the 559 auctioned over the same weekend last year.
Melbourne's consistently strong west suburban region reported the highest clearance rate at the weekend with 85.4 per cent and the highest number of sales at 76. 
</div>
The Sydney Central Coast reported the highest regional clearance rate with 83.3 per cent, followed by Canterbury Bankstown with 81.8 per cent, the lower north with 81.5 per cent.
Trailing the pack was the south west with 57.6 per cent and the Blue Mountains with a clearance rate of 50 per cent.
The Central Coast had Sydney's most affordable property when $280,000 was paid for a two-bedroom unit at <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-unit-nsw-wyong-122674530" target="_blank">1/61 Howarth Street, Wyong</a> through LJ Hooker Wyong. The 65 sqm unit, which was available recently at $280 a week, last sold at $140,000 in 1994.
Melbourne's most expensive property was a four-bedroom 1930s Elwood home, renovated in 2009, at <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-vic-elwood-122896790" target="_blank">12 Glen Huntly Road</a>, which sold for $2,465,000 through Chisholm and Gamon.
The Californian bungalow had been listed with $2.2 million plus price guidance.
The most affordable Melbourne property was a one-bedroom unit at <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-apartment-vic-brunswick-122878634" target="_blank">2/11 Aberdeen Street</a>, Brunswick, which sold for $271,000 through Ray White.
It last sold in 2006 at $169,000.
Sydney recorded a median auction price of $1,045,500, some 7.5 per cent higher than the $972,500 recorded over the same weekend last year. A total of $228.5 million was reported sold.
Melbourne recorded a median auction price of $650,000, which was 1 per cent lower than the $655,000 recorded over the same weekend last year. A total of $191.4 million was reported sold.
Dr Wilson said lower Sydney auction numbers will continue to characterise the market over coming weekends, with just over 300 auctions expected next weekend — around half the number auctioned over the same weekend last year.
But in Melbourne auction numbers, although typically lower during the winter, are set to remain "robust" for this time of the year with around 550 listings scheduled next weekend.
Dr Wilson said low and falling interest rates continued to support buyer and seller confidence with strong competition amongst banks for mortgage customers also driving housing demand.
"Although the Reserve Bank has decided to leave interest rates on hold over July at the record low 1.75 per cent, the odds have certainly narrowed for a cut sooner rather than later and perhaps as soon as next month.
"The June quarter inflation data due to be released by the Australian Bureau of Statistics on July 27 will provide a key determinant of future rate settings, with another low result likely to activate the Bank," Dr Wilson said.
CoreLogic advised some 1,365 capital city auctions were scheduled for the week, with a preliminary clearance rate of 72 per cent. At the same time last year, 1,704 capital city auctions were held with 74.9 per cent clearing.
The nation's cheapest weekend result was in Adelaide where a two bedroom unit at <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-apartment-sa-st+kilda-122850590" target="_blank">2/12 Fooks Terrace</a>, St Kilda Beach, SA fetched $183,000 through Peter Migali at The Professionals Salisbury.
It fetched less than its 2010 sale price of $220,000 and its 2007 sale of $195,000. There were three bidders for the 2003 built apartment which is upstairs in the block of six next to the St Kilda Beach Hotel.

The departure of Britain from the Eurozone took most pundits by surprise. 
Reviewing past events, we know that markets do not like surprises. The bookmakers expected the occurrence of this event to be rare and global markets are now feeling the immediate aftermath of the result. 
The local property market will not be immune to this. BREXIT has been resisted by the wealthy and educated as these graphs from The Guardian show.
<a href="/images/2016/07/08/Screen%20Shot%202016-07-08%20at%204.24.59%20PM.png" target="_blank">Click to enlarge</a>

Secret Agent feels that BREXIT could create a bigger hit to the high end property market in Australia than other sections of the market in the short term. 
While auction results after BREXIT were generally robust, we are likely to witness: 
Subdued auction results at the higher end of the property market as participants sit on their hands to see what happens. * The commercial market tighten as sophisticated investors try to interpret how this might impact their investments. 
Tighter credit conditions (lending) could result if major banks see an increase in offshore funding costs. The major banks each experienced a 3 - 5% decline on the day of BREXIT. 
A further rate cut by the RTBA will become more likely. The yield curve, which is perhaps the best predictor of interest rates indicates further cuts in the short term (see Figure 1). 
One counterintuitive aspect could be an increase in foreign capital to Australia's property market as Australia retains its safe haven status. This could be a medium term by-product, especially if our federal election delivers a clear outcome.

The announcement by the Minister for Social Housing Brad Hazzard that the Riverwood social housing estate will be renewed with a mix of private, social and affordable housing demonstrates the value of Private Public Partnerships.
The recently completed mix of social and market housing at Riverwood delivered by Urban Taskforce member PAYCE Consolidated demonstrates how the same quality of building can house a mixture of private owners and social housing tenants.
The social housing component is managed by St George Community Housing who are also a member of the Urban Taskforce.
The scale of development at Riverwood is particularly large with around 1,600 new social and affordable housing that are expected to be funded by an even greater number of private sector homes spread across a 30.5 hectare site.
Precinct wide developments like this are a good use of Private Public Partnerships as the innovation of the private sector is maximised, financial returns for the developer and investor are secured, while balanced by the provision of community amenities, services and infrastructure.
It will be important to have a realistic tendering process that respects the input of the private sector rather than having a process that is overly prescriptive. The private sector may well have ideas about site layouts, construction methods, materials and the design of the public spaces that are innovative and these innovative approaches need to be encouraged.
The Urban Taskforce is supportive of the renewal process being driven by Minister Hazzard and the Government’s approach of opening the process to private sector innovation.

GUEST OBSERVER
Coal’s impact on the Great Barrier Reef by causing climate change is one of the reasons why environmentalists oppose the development of coal fields and exports in Queensland. But fossil fuels could have a more direct impact on the reef and the waters around it, through chemicals produced during their production and distribution.
When coal dust is released in the marine environment it can damage marine ecosystems. Coal contains a number of different chemicals, but it is polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), which are known carcinogens, that are of most concern.
Some components of coal PAHs cause biochemical changes in fish and can lead to cancer. The coal dust has a very slow degradation rate and will build up in the ecosystem from the continuous input.
Coal dust also absorbs chemicals in the coastal zone and transports things like pesticides and herbicides offshore. Oil spills are another source of PAHs in the marine environment.
It is currently impossible for Australia to assess the impact of these chemicals in marine sediments, because our sediment guidelines are out of date. They need to be updated to match the standards used elsewhere, such as in the United States.
<h2>Coal dust and Great Barrier Reef marine life</h2>
I have previously looked at how far these chemicals can travel from coal ports. I found they can be detected in suspended sediments all the way to the shelf break 200km offshore. (I also published a corrigendum to this paper to correct data errors and to explain how sediment guidelines need to be updated.)
I used the Australian and the US Environment Protection Authority (EPA) sediment quality guidelines to assess the concentration of PAHs in the sediments and suspended sediments on the Great Barrier Reef. The guidelines are meant to indicate “trigger values” for the concentration of possible toxins. If trigger values are reached then sources should be curtailed.
My study showed the concentrations were below toxic levels as then defined by the US guidelines. But it is impossible to know based on the Australian guidelines because these guidelines don’t target the PAHs contained in coal or oil. To explain why, we have to go into a bit of chemistry.
The composition of the PAHs can indicate the source from coal, oil or combustion processes.
The US guidelines use 34 key PAH groups (a total of about 290 individual compounds) and are currently the best available for assessing oil pollution incidents.
The Australian guidelines do not assess the PAHs that are the major contributor to PAHs in coal and oil. The Australian guidelines specify only 20 “parent” PAHs. These guidelines are more relevant to combustion products.
<h2>When is it toxic?</h2>
The Australian guidelines consider PAHs reach toxic levels at 10-50 milligrams per kilogram of sediment. But research suggests this is way too high.
Modern assessments of oil spills now rely on the PAH content of oils in addition to the total oil content.
PAHs make up about 1% of total oil content. If you applied these guidelines to an oil spill, the toxic level of 10mg PAH per kg of sediment would equal 1,000mg of oil per kg. This oil content would kill everything in marine sediments.
For example, I and a colleague published a detailed study of fiddler crabs after the West Falmouth oil spill. We determined that total oil concentrations of 100-200mg oil per kg of sediment were toxic to juvenile crabs. Concentrations of 1,000mg per kg were toxic to adults and/or caused a number of impacts before the crabs died.
As PAHs make up around 1% of most oils, this means that the trigger values should be 1mg PAH per kg (with a maximum of 5mg per kg). And this assessment must include the PAHs that are commonly found in oil and coal.
Commercial Australian labs don’t assess all these PAHs yet, but neither did the American labs until it became necessary for assessing major oil spills such as the Exxon Valdez spill in Alaska and the Deepwater Horizonspill in the Gulf of Mexico. We should not wait for the next disaster to upgrade our capability.
<h2>Cleaning up coal ports</h2>
We also need the ports to reduce their inputs. Townsville port has reduced the dust emission from its powdered zinc and lead loadings.
The train cars are covered and one at a time enter a shed which is under negative pressure. The powder is dumped in a hopper, transported to the conveyors and loaded onto the ships with no or little dust escaping the process.
The cars are then rinsed before leaving the shed. Water is retained and filtered so no dust leaves the area.
Why can’t coal be handled the same way? Improvement in loading metal powders was brought on by public objections to the previous operations.
This would eliminate coal piles in the coastal zone which blow dust all over nearby cities such as Gladstone and leach into coastal creeks. We also need the Australian sediment quality guidelines for PAHs brought up to 21st-century standard.
Do we have to wait until we have another incident like the Montara platform explosion in the Timor Sea in 2010 before we update our guidelines and response times?

RISQ Group is currently working in and around the property services industry and has been very active in developing a service provider verification tool.
The new tool will enable consumers to immediately trust that a given provider has all requisite certifications. 
The tool is called KNOWN and it is in advanced trials across several digital platforms. 
While to date, we are focused on service providers such as tradespeople (e.g. plumbers and electricians), our business expertise stretches from national security vetting to education to finance, and we often work with established industry bodies to provide verification services to members, as well as to create efficient screening work flows. 
For this reason, we think we believe we are positioned to add an additional dimension to some questions.
 Rather than address each individually, we would like to offer a general perspective built around a single basic principle. That basic principle is that screening and verification must be considered as part of the life-cycle that operates relating to training and education, and which forms the basis of the improvements that you are currently contemplating. 
Australia is in the midst of an employment shift, particularly as the resource sector continues to decelerate. This shift will see a substantial enlargement of the paraprofessional employee cohort. This group will increasingly be consumer facing, especially as digital platforms grow to connect providers directly with consumers. 
As a result of this shift, the question of how qualifications and certifications are quickly, accurately and truthfully conveyed as part of the provider-consumer transaction will be paramount. As the consulting paper acknowledges, there is already "little apparent consistency" regarding educational requirements for property agents across jurisdictions. It is not a stretch to say the same lack of consistency applies to publicising education credentials. 
It is critical that as educational standards are improved and clarified, that an efficient and transparent way of transmitting individual verifications to the marketplace is also found, or the credibility of the property management industry will suffer and consumers will not benefit from an improvement of standards. In fact, to quote from the consultation paper, "The primary reason governments prescribe educational standards is to address a consumer detriment or risk." For this reason, we believe that it is imperative to consider how these educational standards will ultimately be transmitted and perceived in the marketplace lest consumer detriment persist or even worsen because of poor verification processes even in the face of higher education standards.
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="page" title="Page 2">
<div class="layoutArea">
<div class="column">
Given how important competition principles are in balancing government overreach, after-the-fact screening and verification, consistently applied throughout the employment life cycle, will serve to prevent marketplace abuses (such as credential misrepresentation) that may prompt even greater future regulatory action. 
We would also suggest that the application/accreditation processes itself should be reviewed for potential streamlining. According to industry sources, while training can be completed in as little as two days, it often takes six weeks for the OFT to process the application. The adoption of improved screening tools can reduce this lag time and get people into gainful employment faster, benefitting providers, consumers and the wider economy. 
We are happy to speak at greater length on this subject and/or present the screening and technological context relevant to the current discussion.

Government overreach and preventing marketplace abuses: Nick Roberts

It is imperative that the new government moves quickly to set the long-term goals for superannuation.
It has been the Association’s long-term policy that the objective and underlying principles of superannuation should be enshrined in legislation, and what has happened over the course of this election campaign has simply reinforced our position. 
It is quite clear that the election highlighted the fact that many in the electorate were unnerved by the changes to superannuation proposed by both major parties and are seeking certainty for their retirement planning.
Both major political parties were seen as moving the goal posts for ordinary Australians to build their savings to ensure a dignified retirement. This is despite the repeated calls from the public and superannuation industry for the ongoing tinkering with superannuation to stop. This is why it is critical to have a politically bipartisan framework for superannuation that is removed from both the budgetary and political cycles for the long term.
We need to have a sustainable and measured policy approach to people’s second largest asset, superannuation. which assists Australians to accumulate adequate retirement income savings for a secure retirement.
It is especially important at times of political uncertainty, such as what has happened with the federal election and Brexit, that people know that their retirement savings are secure.
The Association is ready to work “constructively” with the new Government, Opposition, and cross-benchers in the House of Representatives and the Senate to address the various superannuation policy issues that arose out of the last federal Budget.
It is also important to remember that our superannuation system is one of the world’s best retirement income systems and we need to understand the benefit it provides to our economy and national prosperity.
We are on the record in saying we believed the reduction in the concessional contribution caps were detrimental to the goal of encouraging people to be self-sufficient in retirement and that other budget changes were complex and disrupted many people’s long-term plans. We look forward to working with all parliamentarians to either change or ameliorate the impact of these changes.
It’s also important to note that there were some positive measures in the Budget that were overlooked to some degree, and we will be urging that they get enacted by the new Parliament as quickly as possible.
Among the positives, which the Association has long advocated, were the carry forward of unused concessional contribution caps, allowing people aged between 65 and 74 to contribute to their super without meeting the ‘work test’, and removing the ‘10 percent’ rule that allows all fund members to make deductible contributions to their super.

Financial or economic risk is one of the greatest risks that exclusive buyers’ agents are faced with. They are dealing with a consumer who is arguably making the most significant financial decision of their lives. 
One of the most important roles of an exclusive buyers’ agent is to secure and negotiate a property for their client at the best price and on the best possible terms. In order to do this, one requires many of the skills similar to that required and expected of a qualified property valuer. 
Given this is the case, and a valuer requires something in the order of many years training at a minimum Diploma level, it seems at odds that the current market appraisal component of property services industry training curriculum is covered off in a class room environment over the space of a few days and without any practical application at all. 
A perfect case in point of the lack of skill in this area is evidenced by the recent changes made in NSW to address underquoting practices. 
1.2 Are there other issues that should be considered in assessing training standards? If so what are they? 
It is not just the present day but also the future state of the real estate and buyers’ agent industry that should be considered when assessing training standards. 
Raising the bar to enter and remain in the property services industry should not be seen as a negative proposition or short-term inconvenience. In the long term, higher training standards will serve the industry well by creating a more skilled, ethical and well-rounded property services professional. 
Consumers will ultimately benefit from the end result, which will confirm excellent service practice rather than theoretical knowledge as the key differentiator between property services professionals. 
In addition, lessons should be learned from other similar professional services industries such as financial planning and mortgage broking and the challenges they have faced and dealt with over the last few years. In particular, conflicts of interest have featured as a major challenge and brought some of the practices of those industries into question. 
1.3 What do you think should be the minimum educational standard for each category and why?
In regards to the entry level Certificate of Registration requirement it is considered that this should be accompanied by a more robust curriculum that also incorporates an experiential component such as an ‘on the job ‘supervisory element.

This could be a set number of hours prescribed per week/month/annum where work must be supervised by an appropriately qualified superior or peer. This approach would place an onus on a licensee to endorse (or otherwise) and develop an employee so that they become suitably qualified and build up their technical skills and experience over time. After training in the core curriculum and having the required number of supervised hours, only then could someone be eligible to apply for a real estate buyers’ agent licence. 
In regards to the current licensing component, we believe buyers’ agent training should encompass the same number of the current modules that a full real estate licence entails, rather than the limited modules required at present. Understanding both sides of the real estate transaction is considered useful, even if not practiced, and thus the training should reflect this. 
2.1 Although it is clearly possible to enter the property services industry without any experience, how often does this occur? 
REBAA currently have three levels of membership for buyers’ agents: Full (minimum 24 months experience), Provisional (12-24 months experience) and Learner (new to industry and less than 12 months experience) with the majority of members being full members (91%). This is a reflection of REBAA membership only, however there are several buyers agencies being set up by principals and directors in NSW with little or no field experience in real estate, valuation or similar fields. Though currently legal, we believe this to be a concern for consumers and clearly needs to change. 
2.2 What are the practical consequences of the absence of a time based requirement to enter the property services industry? 
In summary, the consequences of having no time-based requirement to enter the property services industry include: 
<ul>
<li>
A lower quality and calibre of buyers’ agent entering and representing the property services industry. 
</li>
<li>
Higher risk of mistakes and poor behaviours emerging through professional negligence and misconduct. 
</li>
<li>
Misunderstanding the role and perception of an exclusive buyers’ agent and what they do, compared with someone who may operate within a real estate sales office as a buyers assistant and call themselves a buyers’ agent 
</li>
<li>Poor consumer perception of the buyers’ agent and property services industry overall.</li>
</ul>
People without a property background or actual experience entering the property services industry pose a real risk to those they represent. We have heard of cases of mortgage brokers or fanatical property investors setting up shop as so-called “property experts” and not conducting adequate due diligence on the properties they recommend to clients.</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="page" title="Page 5">
<div class="layoutArea">
<div class="column">
The key risks coming from a lack of time based experience may include: 
<ul>
<li>
Over-paying on property 
</li>
<li>
Selecting poor investment grade property or locations 
</li>
<li>
Coercing clients to buy inappropriate properties 
</li>
<li>
Not listening / understanding client needs (especially home buyer clients) 
</li>
<li>
Inappropriate auction tactics or behaviour 
</li>
<li>Tarnish the reputation of buyers agents.</li>
</ul>
2.3 What does time based experience achieve?
Time based experience provides a learning-by-doing approach. This provides real life examples and scenarios where skills can be developed and practised, within a supervisory situation under a licensed professional, rather than relying on theory alone. Field experience is vital to build up knowledge, develop skills and learn from more experienced buyers’ agents.
The benefits of time-based experience include:
<ul>
<li>Exposure to industry best practice</li>
<li>More experienced buyers’ agent (property services) professionals</li>
<li>Greater chance of a better calibre, more experienced and professional buyer’s agent industry developing.</li>
<li>Consistency in quality and professionalism available to consumers</li>
<li>An industry where service and practical knowledge is the key differentiator for consumers when engaging a buyers’ agent.</li>
</ul>

<div class="column">3.1 What needs do the current CPD requirements meet?</div>
<div class="column">
 The current time commitment of CPD requirements in NSW seems generally fair.</div>
<div class="column">
 In terms of content range and accessibility however, they do seem to specifically cater to real estate sales professionals rather than more specialist streams of the property services industry such as buyers’ agents.</div>
<div class="column">
 Under the current system, without relevant content for all property services professionals, the existing continuing professional development model risks being treated as a box ticking exercise rather than something that encourages professionals to learn and genuinely advance their skills within their relevant fields.</div>

The general benefits of CPD where course content is relevant, accessible and is delivered effectively include: 
<ul>
<li>
Future investment in the industry 
</li>
</ul>
More experienced property services professionals who can mentor future members
In terms of the costs to business of CPD these can include:
<ul>
<li>down time where staff are unavailable whilst attending training</li>
<li>lack of return on investment (companies may pay for staff who then leave)</li>
<li>the actual economic cost (if paid for on behalf of staff)</li>
</ul>
If CPD courses were more relevant for buyers’ agents it is considered that the costs to business would be more readily accepted, recognised and embraced.
3.3 What are the problems or issues with the existing CPD regime in NSW?
REBAA has identified the following problems with the existing CDP regime in NSW:
Limited CPD courses or training with content relevant to professionals practicing as exclusive buyers’ agents.
<ul>
<li>There is an inherent assumption that all property services professionals start or stem from being a real estate sales professional</li>
<li>Lack of acceptance of non-property services industry delivered training as suitably meeting CPD requirements (e.g. improving general business skills, negotiation skills) which would arguably be better delivered by external providers outside of the property industry</li>
<li>Limited policing leads to complacency so an online system where property service professionals must log CPD attendance could be linked to renewal of licence. This is similar to a model that is adopted in New Zealand where a real estate licence will not be renewed if training is not logged.</li>
</ul>
3.4 Are the current requirements relevant?
In their current form, the existing CPD requirements in NSW in regards to buyers’ agents are overall not considered entirely relevant for the reasons previously stated.
Whilst the time commitment required for CPD compliance seems reasonable for existing property services professionals, the content range and therefore suitability for exclusive buyers’ agents is currently lacking.
REBAA considers that barriers to entry should increase in the first 2 years of entering the property services industry by mandating a higher CPD commitment that includes an ‘on the job’ style supervised coaching/training component where technical skills are the focus.

4.1 What are the current problems with the delivery and assessment of training for the property services industry? 
There are a very limited number of providers who actually deliver specific training for buyers’ agents. 
Lack of consistency and quality in the content and depth of specific training for buyers’ agents delivered by the limited providers. Typically it is delivered on-line via correspondence or by practising real estate sales agents. 
At present, the delivery and assessment of training specifically aimed at buyers’ agents is entirely theory based with little or nil practical component required. 
The current training requirements for a buyers’ agent are such that a person can obtain a buyers’ agent licence with no practical experience at all. 
Whilst a course to obtain a buyers’ agent licence can be obtained in as few as 8 days, there are known cases where training providers delivering the content have shortcut the process to 3 days. This is a great shame and of significant concern for the industry and for those who attend. 
4.2 What problems have arisen and what are the impacts on the industry? 
Being able to act on behalf of buyers in a fiduciary role on what is often the largest financial decision of their lives requires professionals who are adequately trained, experienced, skilled and highly knowledgeable about the tasks they are performing. 
Consumers need to have confidence that their representative has been trained accordingly to manage the buying process and all that it entails, in a professional and diligent manner. 
The impact of inadequately trained, inexperienced or previously non-supervised agents being able to open a buyers’ agency and immediately act for buyers would include the following: 
<ul>
<li>
Lack of consumer faith in an industry that is already viewed as poorly-trained 
</li>
<li>
Higher legal risks in terms of professional indemnity and claims from clients and relevant third parties
</li>
<li>
Buyers being poorly informed about the process and potentially over-paying needlessly for a property
</li>
<li>Receiving sub-standard service and results</li>
</ul>
4.3 What changes should be made to the delivery and assessment of training for the property services industry?</div>
<div class="column"> </div>
<div class="column">REBAA considers that consideration of specific training content suitable for the various streams of property services professionals should be more widely considered.</div>
</div>
<div class="layoutArea"> </div>
</div>
<div class="page" title="Page 8">
<div class="layoutArea">
<div class="column">
This potentially would include relevant course content for buyers’ agents developed specifically by buyers’ agents through professional associations such as REBAA and REINSW and include practical components that are more relevant specifically to buyers’ agents roles. 
Consideration/credit should also be provided to potentially recognise existing training delivered overseas (either on-line or face to face) developed for buyers’ agents in established markets such as the United Kingdom and the United States of America. 
In these markets, the buyers’ agent industry is well established and advanced when compared with Australia. With the exception of local market knowledge and intricacies the content of available courses could be much better suited. 
5.1 What are the key issues in relation to cross border operations of property and achieve? 
There are local property services professionals practising as buyers’ agent that work in a particular geographic area that spans multiple states, specifically the NSW/Victoria and NSW/QLD state borders. 
These professionals are currently required to obtain mutual recognition yet arguably are just as qualified as someone operating in one state. Rather than penalise these local operators, greater focus should be paced on interstate operators who have a faux presence in multiple states. 
There should be a greater focus placed on training requirements and assessable demonstrated knowledge of the local regulations and property laws before interstate licences are effectively rubber stamped as mutually accepted. 
5.2 What are the current barriers to achieving mutual recognition? 
It would appear there are currently limited barriers to mutual recognition for buyers’ agents. In many states, the mere payment of a fee will secure mutual recognition of a real estate licence permitting someone to operate in another jurisdiction. 
REBAA considers that greater emphasis should be placed on an applicant to be able to demonstrate they have the required local market knowledge before they can secure mutual recognition and practice in another jurisdiction. 
5.3 How might we improve mutual recognition for auctioning of property and livestock? 
REBAA does not feel this question is relevant to buyers’ agents.

Professional development model risks being treated as a box ticking exercise: Rich Harvey

Apartment buildings are increasingly being designed around how people actually live day to day, not just how they want a building to look.

For buyers, that shift is showing up in practical inclusions that respond to changing habits. Work-from-home spaces, EV charging, wellness amenities, secure bike storage and parcel management are becoming part of the broader apartment conversation, reflecting a move toward buildings that reduce friction in everyday life.

Online shopping has become one of the clearest examples of that change.

Australians spent a record $82.6 billion online in 2025, with nearly one in four retail dollars now spent online. That has made parcel delivery a regular part of apartment living, rather than an occasional inconvenience.

For apartment residents, however, the delivery process can be less straightforward than it is for detached homes. Parcels may be left in lobbies, redirected to Post Offices, missed entirely, or placed under the responsibility of building managers and concierge teams.

That is why secure parcel infrastructure is increasingly being considered alongside more familiar apartment amenities.

<iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/-VjjLwoViX0?si=A3k7ws9NX35Uac7_" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe>

Australia Post Parcel Lockers offer one way to address the issue. When a parcel arrives, residents receive a notification through the AusPost app or SMS, then collect it using a QR code or one-time PIN. The parcel is kept secure, accessible and removed from common areas.

The broader Parcel Locker network now includes more than 1,500 locations across Australia, positioned at Post Offices, shopping centres, supermarkets, transport hubs and other accessible locations.

For new apartment projects, the relevance is clear. A building’s amenity offering is no longer only about lifestyle spaces, but also about convenience, security and functionality.

As buyer expectations evolve, secure parcel delivery is becoming part of the same design conversation as flexible working, sustainable transport and resident wellbeing.

It is one less thing for residents to worry about, and another example of apartment design adapting to the way Australians now live.

Apartment design is adapting to the way Australians shop

While school holidays and trips to Europe tend to define the winter property market, there's been no cold snap at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-walden-north-sydney-177-walker-street-north-sydney-nsw-2060">The Walden</a> in North Sydney.

Developer-builder&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/aland">ALAND</a> sold more than $35 million worth of apartments throughout June, including a $6.8 million apartment that now ranks among the highest apartment sales ever recorded in North Sydney.

SRM Residential agent Ben Stewart said buyer demand throughout June reflected a mix of improving market confidence and longer-term thinking from owner-occupiers.

"We're seeing strong demand from owner-occupiers who are taking a longer-term view," Stewart said.

"Many recognise the opportunity to secure an apartment in an iconic building and premium location while values remain attractive. They may initially lease the property, but the intention is to eventually move in themselves, rather than purchasing purely as an investment."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134323 project_image_fid=367129]

Located at 177 Walker Street, The Walden will deliver 161 one, two, three and four-bedroom residences across a 30-storey tower designed by Rothelowman. Every apartment occupies a corner position, maximising natural light, cross ventilation and views across Sydney Harbour, the Opera House, Sydney Heads and the northern districts.

Rather than a traditional balcony, the residences feature winter gardens that seamlessly extend the open plan living areas, creating versatile spaces for relaxing or entertaining throughout the year. Floor-to-ceiling glazing draws in natural light while showcasing sweeping views from the building's elevated Walker Street position.

Every apartment features high-end Calacatta marble, bespoke joinery, and fully integrated appliances.

The larger residences have been planned with distinct entertaining and private zones, with many master suites positioned on corners to capture natural light and harbour views. Walk-in dressing rooms, freestanding baths and refined stone finishes reinforce the house-like feel that has resonated with downsizers and owner-occupiers.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134323 project_image_fid=6393]

Rothelowman Principal Ben Pomroy said the project was designed to make the most of its unique position overlooking the harbour.

"The Walden is a celebration of all things beautiful, curated for those who expect nothing less than exceptional," Pomroy says.

"Meticulously designed entertaining spaces and light-filled living areas that capitalise on capturing the natural beauty of Sydney's iconic harbour."

Residents will also have exclusive access to The Pavilion, a dedicated amenity building featuring a rooftop pool, wellness studio, gymnasium, sauna, concierge service, residents' lounge, private dining spaces and work-from-home facilities.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134323 project_image_fid=6402]

The project marks ALAND's first major luxury apartment development in Sydney's inner-city market after more than two decades delivering residential communities across Greater Sydney.

Founder and CEO Andrew Hrsto previously said the rarity of the Walker Street site made it an opportunity the company could not overlook.

"This is a rare opportunity to bring a truly exceptional project to life in one of Sydney's most iconic locations, and to showcase our craftsmanship and design expertise at a world-class level," Hrsto said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134323 project_image_fid=6383]

The Walden has been introduced to the market at a time when demand for living in North Sydney is at an all-time high. Billions of dollars have been invested in infrastructure, including the recently opened Victoria Cross Metro station, located just 300 metres from The Walden, providing residents with direct access to the Sydney CBD in just minutes.

Private investment has also transformed the area through the arrival of new retail and dining destinations, elevating the lifestyle offering in what was once considered primarily a commercial precinct rather than an aspirational residential address.

The Walden is currently under construction and is scheduled for completion in 2028.

The long-awaited redevelopment of the former Eastlakes Shopping Centre site has reached a major milestone, with Conquest's plans for a new mixed-use precinct officially placed on public exhibition.

The State Significant Development Application would transform the 1.7-hectare site at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/19a-evans-avenue-eastlakes-nsw-2018">19A Evans Avenue</a> into one of Sydney's largest urban renewal projects, delivering 736 apartments above a new shopping centre anchored by Woolworths, alongside specialty retail, dining, commercial space and new public open spaces.

The public exhibition marks the next chapter for the project after <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/conquest">Conquest</a> acquired the stalled Stage Two development from Crown Group, who completed the first stage across the road prior to their voluntary liquidation.

<img alt="First look: Conquest unveils plans for 736-home Eastlakes Shopping Centre redevelopment" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="5fca22c5-d1ed-4e2c-8801-03f7df1eafc8" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/eastland%20podium.png?VersionId=uomwr41nF8CmLUZRDcu3mHQechlbxucS" />

&nbsp;

Designed by DKO Architecture, the proposal comprises four residential buildings ranging from 14 to 18 storeys above a two-level retail podium. The development would deliver 736 apartments, including 74 affordable homes, 215 Build-to-Rent apartments and 521 market residences. Provision has also been made for dual-key apartments, which could increase the total number of dwellings to 877.

At ground level, the shopping centre has been designed as the suburb's new meeting place, anchored by a full-line Woolworths and complemented by a curated mix of fresh food retailers, cafés, restaurants, health services and everyday convenience shopping. Generous pedestrian links and landscaped public spaces will connect the retail precinct through to Jack Mundey Reserve, creating a more walkable and connected neighbourhood.

Conquest CEO Michael Akkawi said the redevelopment was about far more than replacing a shopping centre.

"Eastlakes has been overlooked for too long, and this is the community’s moment. We are building a shopping centre and homes, a genuine heart for the suburb, and we genuinely want locals to help shape it."

"We enrich communities through the creation of homes, places, and experiences designed for life, built to last, and owner for generations. That starts with listening, so we warmly encourage everyone with a connection to Eastlakes to view the plans and share their thoughts."

<img alt="First look: Conquest unveils plans for 736-home Eastlakes Shopping Centre redevelopment" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="22f6fb20-54fb-4bd7-8a92-48fafdd00608" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/eastland.png?VersionId=cugp7s9hrMHGJJdYzkeAkrFoQgnF4GXf" />

DKO said the design had been shaped by the site's landscape setting and surrounding open space.

"Our vision for the site embraces its unique Bidjigal identity by blending the residential living with generous landscaping and a material palette inspired by the Bidjigal locality, and celebrating the panoramic views to Botany Bay and the wetlands reserves."

"Taking cues from Country, we seek to harmonise built form with the landscape and lightly touch the earth. By reconnecting, retaining and regenerating existing ecology, and weaving in natural elements, we can deepen our connection to Country."

The landscape strategy extends across the podium and rooftops, incorporating communal gardens, children's play areas, lawns, community gardens, family gathering spaces and extensive tree planting. New landscaped links will also strengthen the connection between the precinct and Jack Mundey Reserve, while publicly accessible open spaces have been integrated throughout the development.

The proposal builds on Conquest's broader placemaking strategy for the site. Through an ongoing partnership, local artist Joe Rashbrook has been appointed Urban Art Curator, working alongside young residents to transform the project's site hoardings into a public art gallery that allows the community to engage with the redevelopment before construction is complete.

Conquest has rapidly expanded its development pipeline since acquiring the Eastlakes site, with more than $6 billion worth of mixed-use projects now in planning across Sydney, including Stanmore, Castlecrag and Waterloo.

Conquest CEO Michael Akkawi said the redevelopment was about far more than replacing a shopping centre.

Abadeen has lodged a State Significant Development Application (SSDA) for one of Mosman's largest apartment developments in recent years, seeking approval to transform the former Honeysuckle Garden and Midas site on Military Road into a 100-apartment mixed-use development.

The SSDA, lodged with investment partner Phoenix Property Investors, proposes around $230 million worth of new housing on the prominent <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/494-516-military-road-mosman-nsw-2088">494-516 Military Road</a> site.

The proposal comes as Mosman Council continues to progress its recently endorsed Masterplan, which identifies the precinct for increased housing density while maintaining the suburb's established character.

Designed by DKO Architecture, the development would comprise 100 apartments above ground-floor retail, with a rooftop wellness precinct including a gym, sauna, entertaining areas and landscaped communal spaces.

Rather than pushing to the full 12-storey height identified in Council's Masterplan, the proposal ranges between five and nine storeys, stepping down towards Hale Road. A tenth level would accommodate resident amenities rather than additional apartments.

The project has been designed to appeal to a broad range of buyers, from first home buyers and young professionals through to families and local downsizers looking to remain on the Lower North Shore.

<img alt="Mosman" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="5dada03f-5b4c-43ba-ba62-2868add31440" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-07-27%20at%209.57.55%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=7LBy0B.Jo8_iWAFJsClcV7Q3UnXrv49r" />

Abadeen Executive Chairman Justin Brown said the apartments had been designed as genuine long-term homes rather than investor-focused stock.

"The apartments have been designed as genuine long-term homes, with efficient floorplans that maximise usable living areas, generous storage, natural light and strong connections between indoor and outdoor spaces," Brown says."

"We've focused on creating homes for a broad range of buyers, from first home buyers and growing families through to downsizers who want to remain in Mosman."

The rooftop wellness offering forms a key part of the proposal, with residents set to have access to a gym, sauna, outdoor entertaining spaces, communal dining areas, landscaped gardens and a multi-use recreation court overlooking Sydney Harbour.

<img alt="Mosman" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="d37c2d6b-583a-4a0f-b7a9-9f46b893d2f4" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-07-27%20at%209.58.06%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=FPoa5FCm2RtzjhAh2w5FTWJbV6GHfY8D" />

DKO drew heavily on the site's natural and cultural history, undertaking a Connecting with Country process with local Aboriginal Elders to inform the architectural and landscape design.

Senior Associate Matthew Ritchard said the design sought to create a building that responded to both the site's landscape and its cultural significance.

"The architectural language of the project is a deep expression of Connecting with Country, where the materiality and colour palette serve as a bridge between the site's geological history and its future as a residential sanctuary."

The proposal also retains the site's established blue gum tree as the centrepiece of the communal landscaped gardens, while introducing activated retail fronting Military Road to strengthen the connection between Mosman and Cremorne villages.

If approved, the project would deliver 100 new homes within walking distance of shops, public transport, schools and local amenities, adding to the limited pipeline of new apartments on the Lower North Shore.

The wave of apartment proposals sweeping through Mosman shows no signs of slowing, with another major residential development lodged through the NSW Government's State Significant Development pathway.

Developer First Quadrant Properties, which recently completed Willoughby Grounds and has several projects in planning across the North Shore, has unveiled plans for <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/cove-on-ourimbah-40-56-ourimbah-road-mosman-nsw-2088">Cove on Ourimbah</a>, a 63-apartment development on Ourimbah Road, adding to the growing pipeline of projects reshaping one of Sydney's most tightly held harbour suburbs.

The proposal would consolidate nine properties at 40-56 Ourimbah Road into a part eight, part nine-storey apartment building, continuing the momentum created by the NSW Government's accelerated planning pathways that have seen several significant developments emerge across Mosman over the past 12 months.

Designed by Doroch Architects, the project would deliver 63 apartments, resident wellness facilities including a gym, pool and sauna, landscaped communal spaces and basement parking, while using recessed upper levels, generous setbacks and extensive planting to reduce the perceived scale of the building.

<img alt="First look: First Quadrant Properties eyes nine-storey Mosman apartment project under State Significant pathway" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="32ee68e4-141e-4a10-8f83-48e961a5e71e" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Ourimbah%20Road%2C%20Mosman%20a.png?VersionId=CUeILFc6APlwXPc.iplElbxHvREKwjig" />

Doroch Architects said the building had been designed to reinforce Mosman's established character.

"The building's aesthetic is grounded in the existing residential character of Ourimbah Road and the broader Mosman context," the architect noted in the planning documents submitted to the NSW Government.

The design adopts a contemporary material palette of natural stone, textured concrete and brown concave metal cladding, complemented by integrated planters and deep balconies. The podium incorporates softened curved concrete forms, while increased setbacks have been provided adjacent to the heritage-listed property at 60 Ourimbah Road to create a more sympathetic transition.

The site sits around 330 metres from Mosman Town Centre, placing it within the NSW Government's Low and Mid-Rise Housing policy area, where increased residential density is being encouraged close to shops, transport and services.

The proposal follows a string of major apartment projects lodged or declared State Significant in Mosman in recent months, including Abadeen's 100-apartment Honeysuckle Garden redevelopment on Military Road and several other developments across Awaba Street, Redan Street and Muston Street from the likes of Time &amp; Place, HELM and Prosker Property.
