South East Queensland developer&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/gardner-vaughan-group">Gardner Vaughan Group</a>’s entry into the Gold Coast apartment market has progressed from pipeline to market, with its Chevron Island project Bronze on Chevron now formally available to purchase ahead of a planned 2029 completion.

The 119-apartment development on Mawarra Street marks the Brisbane-headquartered builder-developer’s first residential play in the Gold Coast, following its expansion south from Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/bronze-on-chevron-8-mawarra-street-surfers-paradise-qld-4217">Bronze on Chevron</a> comprises a mix of two-, three- and four-bedroom residences, with pricing starting from just over $1.5 million. The project is being delivered under Gardner Vaughan’s fully integrated model, with the group acting as both developer and builder, a structure it has consistently applied across its South East Queensland portfolio.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107520 project_image_fid=367182]

Architecture has been designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/cottee-parker-architects">Cottee Parker</a>, with landscape architecture by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/landscape-architect/jeremy-ferrier-landscape-design">Jeremy Ferrier</a>. The building presents as a single-tower scheme, with a focus on maximising outlook across both the Surfers Paradise skyline and the Nerang River.

Apartments have been planned with open-plan living zones extending to generous balconies, a response to the site’s dual-aspect positioning between river and ocean. Interiors follow a restrained coastal palette, with two colour schemes offered, and an emphasis on natural light and cross-ventilation.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107520 project_image_fid=367181]

Resident amenity is concentrated across more than 1,250 sqm and includes a resort-style pool, gym, yoga lawn and rooftop entertaining areas. A function space with catering facilities forms part of the upper-level offering, alongside north- and south-facing outdoor areas.

Ground level will incorporate two retail tenancies, intended to extend the existing village character of the surrounding streets.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107520 project_image_fid=367200]

The project sits within walking distance of Thomas Drive’s established dining strip, while maintaining proximity to <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/surfers-paradise-qld-4217">Surfers Paradise</a> beach and broader Gold Coast amenity. The location, positioned on Chevron Island between the river and coastline, has increasingly attracted mid- to high-density development in recent years as the precinct evolves beyond its low-rise origins.

Gardner Vaughan’s move into the Gold Coast was first signalled in 2025, with the group identifying the region as a natural extension of its operations. Chief Executive Officer Simon Betteridge described the expansion as both “strategic and natural”, citing demand for well-designed apartments in lifestyle-driven markets.

Construction is expected to complete in early 2029.

Ellipse sets Castle Hill apartment record with $5.75 million Lily Lane penthouse sale

Fresh off completing its Delano Crows Nest development, Lindsay Bennelong has lodged plans for its next project, this time turning its attention back to the beach.

The developer, started 20 years ago by Clarendon Homes founder Peter Campbell, is proposing a 37-apartment scheme at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/17-25-ashburner-street-manly-nsw-2095">17-25 Ashburner Street</a>, Manly, positioned between the southern end of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/manly-nsw-2095">Manly</a> Beach and East Manly Cove.

Lindsay Bennelong called on local architecture firm Platform Architects to design the new building, given their success at Finn, Lindsay Bennelong's current luxury apartment project on North Steyne.&nbsp;

According to the Design Verification Statement by Bridie Gough of Platform Architects, the proposal “relates to the current context but also the desired future character of taller buildings suitable to the new planning controls.”

The site has been identified as a Low to Mid-Rise Housing (LMR) location, given its position within 400 metres of the Manly Town Centre E1 Business Zone. The LMR controls are intended to unlock additional housing supply in well-located areas close to public transport, allowing developers to seek increased height limits to support greater density.

“The proposal seeks to provide this increased level of housing whilst being respectful of some of the smaller scale buildings also nearby,” the statement reads.

Lindsay Bennelong Development Director Leigh Manser said the project has been carefully aligned with the intent of the LMR controls. The proposal will significantly increase housing yield on the site, replacing four houses and 10 apartments, comprising 25 bedrooms, with 37 new apartments delivering a total of 94 bedrooms, whilst remaining compliant with the LMR controls.

“Sydney is in a severe undersupply, and delivering more dwellings and more bedrooms than what currently exists is exactly what the LMR policy is designed to activate,” Manser said, noting that nine of the apartments will be allocated as affordable housing for frontline workers.

“We have already commenced discussions with our community housing provider to determine the rental levels that frontline workers can realistically afford in this location,” he said. “These will need to sit well below the standard affordable housing benchmark of 20 per cent below market rent, and that has been factored into our feasibility and pricing.”

The design of the building incorporates a wave-like indentation running through the façade, referencing the nearby coastline and anchoring the building within its local context.

The&nbsp;Design Verification Statement says careful consideration has been given to the articulation of the building, ensuring the bulk is broken down to a more human scale through a defined four-storey podium."

The scheme includes a mix of one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments, as well as a full-time building manager's office and wellness facilities including a sauna and a gym.

“The design ensures a high level of amenity, with apartments offering generous private open space, many with expansive views, and all with comfortable proportions."

The architectural approach drew on the area’s Art Deco lineage, reinterpreted through contemporary detailing and framed by landscaped communal gardens.

The developer also has a development site in Maroubra.

First look: Lindsay Bennelong's new Manly apartment development revealed

Fifty-nine residences across 37 levels. No more than two per floor. With 80 per cent now sold, what remains at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/madeline-by-mosaic-broadbeach-22-mary-avenue-broadbeach-qld-4218">Madeline by Mosaic</a> is a short list.

Madeline was always conceived at a scale that sits outside the normal register of Gold Coast apartment living. The residences are half- and full-floor configurations, with the largest spanning more than 400 sqm, dimensions that place them closer to the penthouse end of the market regardless of where they sit in the building.

That scale is the organising principle of everything else: how the floorplans are laid out, how the materials read, how the connection between inside and outside works.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150135 project_image_fid=355941]

The interiors were developed in collaboration with <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/fraser-partners-0">Fraser &amp; Partners</a>, the architecture practice&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/mosaic-property-group">Mosaic</a> brought in as design partner for the first time on this project. The palette runs to natural stone, textured timbers, and soft metallics, materials chosen as much for their tactile quality as their appearance.

Light cleverly shifts across surfaces through the day, and the design is explicit about wanting that to be noticed. Full-height glazing runs across the primary living areas, and where the building faces east toward the ocean, those walls of glass are doing real work: framing a view corridor that the site's position directly opposite Broadbeach State School's playing fields keeps permanently open.

That outlook is the site's most consequential asset. In a suburb where new towers continue to rise, a protected view line is genuinely rare, and the Mary Avenue address secures it. Residents at Madeline will look out over open parkland rather than the rear of another building, a distinction that becomes more meaningful with each new development approved nearby.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150135 project_image_fid=355939]

The private outdoor spaces are sized to match the residences themselves. Terraces on the upper levels frame uninterrupted ocean panoramas, and the planning ensures that living areas extend into those outdoor zones rather than treating them as separate attachments. The flow between the two is part of the design intent, not an afterthought.

Inside, the finish specification reflects the same approach. Rich stone benchtops, warm timber joinery, bespoke hardware, each element specified to hold up over time rather than read as a moment in a particular trend cycle.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150135 project_image_fid=3409]

Beyond the residences, the amenity offering extends that register. A lap pool and sun deck anchor the outdoor space, alongside a magnesium pool, cold plunge, steam room, and sauna.

A commercial-grade gymnasium, residents' lounge, library, and boardroom round out a programme that functions more like a private members club than a standard building amenity floor.

Construction has commenced under Mosaic's in-house building arm, with completion scheduled for late 2028.

Madeline by Mosaic delivers penthouse-level living across every apartment

Developer Fortezza Group is the latest to take its new apartment development, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-belvedere-5-7-church-street-nelson-bay-nsw-2315">The Belvedere in Nelson Bay</a>, to the NSW Government.

Fortezza, predominantly a South East Queensland developer, is the latest to apply for State Significant Development&nbsp; status through the NSW Government's Housing Delivery Authority, a pathway becoming favoured by developers to speed up the approval process.

They are planning 57 two- and three-bedroom apartments across 5-7 Church Street and 42 Donald Street, near d'Albora Nelson Bay Marina. The diverse apartment mix has sizes from just over 80 sqm to the largest three-bedroom penthouses that reach nearly 200 sqm.

<img alt="Fortezza" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="090360e1-66d7-43ad-b686-aba81f173bf2" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-04-29%20at%2010.22.40%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=DMqF96eBZolqSAAAcugX0l66ueWng66m" />

Fortezza calls the project a "piece of Istria in Nelson Bay,"&nbsp;referring to the largest peninsula in the Adriatic Sea, shared by Croatia (90%), Slovenia, and Italy, which is known for its Roman history, Venetian-style coastal towns and inland hilltop villages.

They say the The Belvedere is strategically positioned at the apex of Nelson Bay, offering unrivalled views of the ocean, the bay and captivating topography of the area.

"Our commitment to maintaining the integrity of every view and sight line has been relentless," Fortezza Group says.

"Through extensive modelling and analysis, we ensure that each apartment enjoys the natural beauty of Nelson Bay, regardless of future developments. Each design element is carefully curated to harmonise with our European heritage, drawing profound inspiration from the Roman architectural marvels in Istria. The arches, the cascades of greenery and the stonework that define our project pay homage to the structures that once exemplified Roman grandeur."

Residents will have access to a pool, communal green spaces, an office and a coffee shop.

Sydney’s property market is known for high prices, competitive bidding, and mounting pressure on first home buyers. But change is on the horizon.

From late 2025, eligible first home buyers in New South Wales will have access to a new federal government initiative aimed at addressing affordability: the Help to Buy Scheme.&nbsp;

<h2>What is the Help to Buy Scheme?</h2>

The program introduces a shared equity model intended to reduce the upfront cost of entering the property market, particularly in high-demand urban areas such as Sydney.

The scheme operates under a shared ownership structure in which the federal government takes an equity stake of up to 40 per cent for new homes, or 30 per cent for existing dwellings. This arrangement allows eligible buyers to significantly reduce their loan size and avoid the added cost of Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI).

Under this model, purchasers can enter the property market with as little as a two per cent deposit, well below the traditional 10 to 20 per cent usually required. The government’s contribution is not a loan but a co-ownership stake in the property. As such, there is no interest or rent charged on its portion.

Because the government’s equity combined with the buyer’s deposit typically meets or exceeds the 20 per cent threshold, LMI does not apply. The remaining balance, generally between 60 and 70 per cent of the property’s value, is financed through a standard home loan with a participating lender.

The government's equity in the property remains in place until the buyer chooses to repay it voluntarily or until the property is sold. Buyers can buy back the government’s share over time, in increments of at least five per cent, depending on their financial situation.

There is no fixed repayment timeline, but the amount to be repaid will be based on the property's market value at the time of repayment, not the original purchase price.

<h2>How do you qualify for the&nbsp;Help to Buy Scheme?</h2>

To qualify for the Help to Buy Scheme, applicants must meet the following conditions:

<ul>
	<li>Be an Australian citizen at least 18 years of age.</li>
	<li>Be a first-home buyer who does not currently own property.</li>
	<li>Intend to live in the property as their primary residence.</li>
	<li>Earn less than $100,000 per year for individuals, or $160,000 for couples.</li>
	<li>Purchase a property within the regional price caps, currently $950,000 in Sydney, though this is expected to rise to approximately $1.3 million ahead of the program’s launch.</li>
</ul>

While the Help to Buy Scheme does not solve affordability challenges across the board, it does offer a more accessible pathway for a defined segment of the market, particularly younger buyers with moderate incomes who have been priced out of traditional lending routes.

The scheme is expected to commence in NSW in late 2025, as part of a national rollout.

Under the new model, purchasers can enter the property market with as little as a two per cent deposit, well below the traditional 10 to 20 per cent usually required

Help to Buy Scheme: What first home buyers in NSW need to know

The First Home Owners Grant (FHOG) is a government initiative designed to help eligible first-time home buyers by offering financial assistance towards the purchase or construction of a new home.

While the FHOG is a nationwide program, it is administered separately by each state and territory, meaning the eligibility criteria, grant amounts, and property requirements can vary depending on your location. This means that the amount available and the conditions attached to the grant will differ, so it is important to check the specific guidelines for your state or territory.

It’s important to note that the FHOG is just one of several incentives available to first home buyers. In most states and territories, the grant is not linked to stamp duty exemptions or concessions, with the exception of the Australian Capital Territory (ACT). The FHOG is typically a one-off payment, reducing the overall cost of purchasing or building a new home before any stamp duty concessions are applied.

In the ever-evolving landscape of sustainable architecture and environmentally conscious design, systems and ratings in place can help determine the energy efficiency of residential buildings in Australia.

Australia has multiple building rating systems that evaluate energy efficiency and sustainability in existing and new building designs.

Some systems assess individual building components, while others provide an overall rating for the entire structure.

A rating system ensures that homes are comfortable and energy-efficient, whether you are buying, renovating, or building.

NatHERS (Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme) is a common way for new homes to meet energy efficiency requirements.

As new developments continue to shape the urban environment, understanding NatHERS ratings becomes essential for developers and homeowners. This article delves into the concept of NatHERS ratings, their significance, and how they contribute to creating energy-efficient homes.

<h2>What is NatHERS?</h2>

NatHERS is a national initiative implemented by the Australian government to promote energy efficiency in residential buildings. The scheme aims to provide a standardised method for assessing the thermal performance of homes, considering factors such as insulation, orientation, ventilation, and building materials.&nbsp;

NatHERS ratings are the most common way new homes meet the National Construction Code's (NCC's) minimum energy efficiency requirements.&nbsp;

NatHERS assessments provide thermal and whole-home ratings for new homes, townhouses, and apartments.

The rating helps evaluate the energy performance of buildings, guides homeowners and developers to make informed decisions about the energy efficiency of their properties, and encourages the construction of more sustainable, comfortable, and cost-effective homes.

<h2>How NatHERS Ratings Work</h2>

NatHERS ratings are determined through four accredited software tools (AccuRate, BERS Pro, FirstRate5, HERO) using a calculation engine CSIRO developed to predict building temperature based on various factors.

The tools can model complex effects of building mass, insulation, window size, and other elements.

The outcome is a star rating that reflects the building's overall thermal efficiency, indicating how well it can maintain a comfortable indoor temperature without excessive reliance on heating or cooling systems.

The star rating scale ranges from 0 to 10, with a 6-star rating being the minimum requirement for compliance with the National Construction Code (NCC).&nbsp;

Achieving a higher star rating demonstrates a commitment to energy efficiency and sustainability, as the building is better equipped to minimise its environmental impact and reduce long-term energy costs.

Anyone can use NatHERS tools, but accredited assessors can provide certified ratings and professional advice.

<h2>Benefits of Higher NatHERS Ratings</h2>

Energy Efficiency: Buildings with higher NatHERS ratings are more energy-efficient, requiring less heating and cooling energy. This reduces the structure's carbon footprint and lowers occupants' energy bills.

Cost Savings: Homes with higher NatHERS ratings are generally more energy-efficient, resulting in reduced energy consumption for heating and cooling. This translates to lower energy bills for homeowners, making sustainable living environmentally friendly and economically viable in the long run.

Environmental Impact: Lower energy consumption directly translates to a reduced environmental impact. Buildings with higher NatHERS ratings contribute to the overall goal of mitigating climate change by lowering greenhouse gas emissions associated with heating and cooling systems.

Improved Comfort: Buildings with high NatHERS ratings offer better thermal comfort to occupants. Proper insulation, well-designed ventilation, and optimal orientation maintain a consistent and comfortable indoor temperature, providing occupants with a more enjoyable and healthier space.

Market Value and Desirability: Higher NatHERS ratings can enhance the market value of a property. As energy efficiency becomes a more significant consideration for homebuyers, a well-rated building may attract a premium price and stand out in the real estate market.

Compliance with Building Codes: NatHERS ratings are a vital component of the National Construction Code (NCC), and compliance with these ratings is often a mandatory requirement for new developments. Local councils and planning authorities may set minimum energy efficiency standards that must be met to obtain development approval.

The Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme (NatHERS) is a crucial initiative shaping the future of energy-efficient, resilient, and cost-effective homes. With its recent upgrades, NatHERS has evolved into a world-leading tool for the building sector, supporting the global commitment to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.

What is a NatHERS rating in new off the plan apartment developments?

Mixed-use developments have gained significant popularity across Australia in recent years due to their unique blend of residential, commercial, and recreational spaces.

Unlike traditional single-purpose developments, mixed-use projects offer a harmonious integration of various functions within a single locale.

Residential units seamlessly coexist with commercial establishments, retail outlets, dining venues, entertainment hubs, and recreational facilities, with the combination not only enhances convenience but also fosters a vibrant lifestyle and a sense of community.

<h3>Convenience and accessibility</h3>

Mixed-use developments are designed with convenience in mind. They often integrate residential units with commercial spaces, retail outlets, restaurants, and recreational facilities, creating a self-contained community.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=204874]

The proximity allows residents to enjoy the convenience of having essential amenities and services within walking distance. Whether it's grabbing a cup of coffee, going grocery shopping, or accessing healthcare services, everything is conveniently located, saving residents time and effort.

<h3>Vibrant lifestyle and community</h3>

One of the major advantages of mixed-use developments is the vibrant lifestyle they offer. With a diverse range of amenities and communal spaces, residents have ample opportunities to interact, socialise, and build a sense of community.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107714 project_image_fid=214122]

The presence of parks, community centres, and shared spaces fosters a lively atmosphere, encouraging residents to engage in various activities and events. The vibrant lifestyle within these developments creates a unique sense of belonging and camaraderie among the residents.

<h3>Potential for higher rental yields and property value appreciation</h3>

Mixed-use developments tend to attract a broad range of tenants and buyers due to their versatile nature. This high demand can result in higher rental yields for investors and potentially lead to property value appreciation over time.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=139989 project_image_fid=212887]

The integration of commercial and retail spaces attracts businesses, which can provide a stable rental income stream. Additionally, the popularity of mixed-use developments often drives up property values, making them a potentially lucrative investment in the long term.

<h3>Enhanced security and maintenance</h3>

Mixed-use developments typically have comprehensive security measures in place. With controlled access points, CCTV surveillance, and professional security staff, residents can enjoy enhanced safety and peace of mind.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108019 project_image_fid=212658]

Additionally, these developments often have dedicated maintenance teams responsible for the upkeep of common areas, landscaping, and infrastructure. This ensures that the overall appearance and functionality of the development are well-maintained, creating a pleasant living environment for residents.

<h3>Live-work-play balance</h3>

One of the key attractions of mixed-use developments is the ability to achieve a desirable live-work-play balance. The integration of residential and commercial spaces allows residents to live closer to their workplaces, reducing commuting time and improving work-life balance.

The proximity to various amenities and recreational facilities encourages an active and healthy lifestyle. Residents can easily access fitness centres, parks, restaurants, and entertainment options, all within the same development, leading to a more fulfilling and convenient way of life.

The top five reasons to buy in a mixed-use development

When buying a property, everyone needs to be aware of the additional costs that come as part of the buying process.

Often the largest outlay, after the deposit which goes to the bank, is stamp duty.

<h2 style="line-height: 1.38;">What is Stamp Duty?</h2>

Stamp duty is an extra tax to pay the government when you buy land, a property, and other certain assets.

It happens when the legal ownership is transferred. It can also be known as property transfer duty or transfer duty.

<h2>Who pays Stamp Duty?</h2>

In some circumstances, you may get an exemption. For some states, you won’t have to pay for stamp duty if you are a first home buyer or a pensioner for houses under a particular price. There are also stamp duty concessions, where you may be entitled to a discount.

<h2>How much does Stamp Duty cost?</h2>

Each state has different rules which affect how much you need to pay. These rules can affect the rate you pay, and the timeframe you will need to pay in. Before you buy land or a property, make sure you check the up-to-date information for your state’s stamp duty.

You can use a free stamp duty calculator online to see approximately how much you’ll need to pay. Find out if you’re eligible for an exemption by enquiring on a project via Urban!

Overall, the stamp duty you need to pay will depend on:

Eight consortiums have lodged expressions of interest with the Queensland government to build on state-owned land at the Broadwater on the Gold Coast.
Most plans include a casino as part of the proposal. The Broadwater Marine Project is a joint initiative of the Queensland Government and Gold Coast City Council seeking private sector investment to deliver what could be the largest integrated tourism infrastructure development in Queensland’s history. The project seeks delivery of a cruise ship terminal on state government-owned land on The Spit or on Wave Break Island in the Broadwater.
In addition to the terminal, the potential multi-billion dollar integrated tourism project could include hotel, casino, marina and super yacht facilities, retail, entertainment, hospitality, community open space, recreation facilities and a mix of residential development. A Gold Coast cruise ship terminal and associated tourism infrastructure have the potential to boost tourist visitation, increasing expenditure into the state and local economies and creating jobs.
The Chinese-backed development company Ridong is the first to confirm its interest.
All the applications include a cruise ship terminal at the request of the Gold Coast City Council as a "value add" for the city's tourism industry.
The Gold Coast Bulletin reported that of the eight, four are Asian, along with a Middle Eastern company.
Sources close to the project say it is not viable without the development of a casino.
RDG boss Steven Haggart confirmed the Chinese-backed development company was one of the parties.
The land on offer was Wavebreak Island and parts of The Spit, including land immediately to the north and south of Sea World Nara.
"We have put forward a plan for the Broadwater which has 10 game-changing developments on it," said Mr Haggart, whose company is behind the $1 billion Jewel, Surfers Paradise resort.

Property investors need to be constantly vigilant with their research, particularly when local events can quickly change market dynamics. 
Bowen, a bright and busy regional centre in Queensland boosted by agriculture, fishing, tourism and mining, provides a stark example. It has a strong future, but in the short-term its market is likely to decline. 
Almost overnight, vacancies have gone from low to very high. Late in 2012, vacancies were well below 3%. In mid-February, they’re around 18%, according to local estimates. 
<img src="/images/stories/2013/02/bowenmap.jpg" width="272" height="358" alt="bowenmap"> 
How did that happen? <a href="/news">Bowen</a>, until recently, was busy with construction work, some of it re-construction work from recent storms and some of it new residential buildings. 
Lots of builders were in town and the small crop season was in full flight, which meant there were seasonal workers renting. There was also demand from people working in coal mines in the region. 
Lately, a series of adverse events have coincided. The construction projects and the small crop season have ended, while coal mines have downsized. Lots of workers have left town, at a time when the new residential buildings have added to the level of investor stock. 
Tony Doyle, principal of LJ Hooker Bowen, says Bowen has copped a triple whammy. 
“All of a sudden we have an enormous vacancy rate,” he says. “There are 224 vacancies in Bowen advertised by all agents – which means 18% or 19%, which is unheard of in Bowen.” 
In the circumstances, a decline in rents and prices in inevitable. But it’s likely to be short term. Bowen has a lot of big things on the medium-term horizon, because the Abbot Point export facility sits just outside the town. 
Multiple billions of dollars will be spent on new rail links from the emerging Galilee Basin coal mining province and on expansion of Abbot Point facilities. There will likely be action on those projects in the third or fourth quarters of the year. 
Major investors include the two Indian entities gearing up to spend around $10 billion each establishing coal mines, rail links and export facilities in Queensland – Adani and GVK. Adani has already invested $1.9 billion in a 99-year lease over the X50 Abbot Point Coal Terminal. 
Others with interests in an expanded Abbot Point include BHP Billiton and Gina Rinehart’s Hancock Coal. 
“We have some great things coming up, but it’s happening very slowly,” Doyle says. “It’s frustrating.” 
In the meantime, if you believe Bowen has a solid future, there may be opportunities to buy well in this market. 
Currently the median house price is around $350,000, largely created by an upturn in the four to five years leading up the 2007. I’d be expecting that to drop a little over the next six months or so.

Transport company owner Peter Smith has listed his home on the Isle of Capri. The property at 31-33 The Corso will be auctioned March 17 through McGrath agents John Natoli and James Ledgerwood.

Peter Smith was the buyer when <a href="https://www.mcgrath.com.au/buy/house-southport-qld-4215/168449/?searchID=26362426" target="_blank">Alston, the $9.8 million Southport mansion </a>sold under bank instructions.

The businessman started his trucking business in the 1960s with a Bedford truck and went on to form Cubico, which was sold to multinational Mayne Nickless.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=29916]

In 1974 Smith started SCT (Specialised Container Transport) and built it into a national logistics operation. It offers road, rail, sea, refrigerated transport, contract warehousing, distribution, and contract management services. In September 2010 Specialised Bulk Rail was formed as a subsidiary to haul iron ore from Calm Hill Mine for IMX Resources.

<a href="https://www.mcgrath.com.au/buy/house-isle-of-capri-qld-4217/176321/?searchID=26362389" target="_blank">His three-level riverfront house comes with five bedrooms and six bathrooms, plus a five-car basement garage.</a>

It cost $5.6 million in 2005 with Smith then demolishing the existing home and building a new home designed by leading Gold Coast architect David Denham. The home, of about 160 squares, was completed in 2006.

The Gold Coast home of international footballer Craig Moore has been sold for $1.9 million.
It's the property he built on Hope Island. The 1,006-square-metre property, which has direct access to the broadwater, has a pontoon for a large boat.
It also features a games room with a built-in bar, an outdoor kitchen and 12-metre pool with a spa. The house was sold to a Gold Coast couple who have lived in the Hope Island area previously and wanted to move back there from The Sovereign Islands.
Moore captained Australia’s Olympic soccer team in 2004 and played with the Socceroos in the 2006 and 2010 World Cups.
His five-bedroom waterfront home had been tipped by its <a href="https://www.mcgrath.com.au/buy/house-hope-island-qld-4212/171809/?searchID=25664384" target="_blank">McGrath listing agent Philip Chillemi </a>to sell for between $1.6 to $2 million.
Chillemi said there was wide interest in the house, with potential buyers from both interstate and overseas. After about 50 people went through the house during open for inspections, there were four bidders at the auction. The house was sold to a Gold Coast couple, who have previously lived in the Hope Island area previously and wanted to move back there from The Sovereign Islands.

People are doing more than just looking for whales at Hervey Bay, they’re buying houses as well.
Sales picked up for the third consecutive six month period to September 2012 in the Fraser Coast coastal town, about three hours north of Brisbane,  according to a new research report from PRDnationwide.
Activity is expected to rise again in 2013 although house prices won’t start to rise until excess apartment stock priced under $300,000 is sold.
PRDnationwide researcher, Rob Matta, says a price point analysis undertaken for the Hervey Bay house market indicates 49% of sales recorded for the September 2012 period were below $300,000, compared to 29% in September 2010 period.
“Increased activity in the sub $250,000 price range substantiates a notable change in buyer preferences, with many owner occupiers and investors exploiting opportunities to buy well and add value to somewhat tired properties,” says Matta.
“Houses within this price range have traditionally been overlooked by buyers, resulting in lengthy stints on the market. Current on-the-market evidence confirms that these properties have become the fastest to move throughout 2012, as buyers respond to diminishing stock levels at the lower end.”
According to Matta, the absorption of limited stock under $250,000 will eventually stabilise the median house price from further softening in 2013, as buyers shift back to higher price brackets and mortgagee sales become less prevalent.
“The increase in sales activity and firming of median price for the suburb of Pialba over the September 2012 period is further evidence of buyer’s increased appetite for affordable housing in what has become a competitive market.”
The heavily tourism-dependent town has, like other Queensland coastal markets suffered from the effects of the post-GFC fallout including the high-Australian dollar which has seen more Australians take overseas trips than travel domestically in the last five years.
Matta says the Hervey Bay Area unit market continues to demonstrate a sound level of sales, having recorded 97 settled transactions during the September 2012 period, a marginal difference from the previous March period.
“With the current oversupply of apartment stock in the market, it is expected that prices may experience further corrections throughout 2013, with sales volumes likely to maintain resilience at best,” he said.
“With that being said, there has been a greater level of interest for duplexes and smaller unit complexes which could experience modest growth over the year and compensate for weaker apartment sales.”
However, demand for more expensive apartments remains weak with “notably less enquiry for units in the higher end of the market compared to two years ago”.
Matta says the availability of stock on the market providing would-be buyers with many options and enhanced bargaining power.
A similar assessment of the Hervey Bay market is made by Herron Todd White (HTW) in its February month-in-review report.
HTW expects that over the next twelve months the Fraser Coast residential property market is “expected to experience a stabilisation period where prices will remain steady, however further retraction may still take place for higher end stock (above $450,000).
“Demand for property below $350,000 will continue to provide a large percentage of sales with affordability being a key factor in this price range.
“It is anticipated that the unit market will continue to flounder over the next year, with only minimal demand in this sector.
“Rental accommodation is expected to remain tight, with low vacancy levels particularly for dwellings close to schools and the beach," says HTW.
The regional market is also benefiting from infrastructure investment with the commencement of construction of the new $87.5 million private hospital in Urraween, which HTW says will generate around 300 construction jobs and a similar number of healthcare positions.
The $28 million Splash Bay water park has recently been approved by the local council and is due to be completed by Christmas 2013.
Hervey Bay, principal of PRDnationwide Hervey Bay, Jim McKay, Hervey Bay says higher rents are enticing investors back as well while owner-occupiers are attracted by the affordable prices and lifestyle.
“Our lifestyle here is casual and just great. The locals are friendly and come from all over the place, so there’s a great mix of backgrounds. Look out across the Esplanade at the beach and the crystal clear water and that’s the reason people just don’t want to leave,” he said.

The luxury architecturally designed Hedges Avenue, Mermaid Beach home of troubled Gold Coast developer Bruce Tilley sold for $5 million at the Ray White Surfers Paradise Group’s annual prestige auctions.
Property Observer <a href="https://www.propertyobserver.com.au/queensland/no-expenses-spared-mermaid-beach-property-hits-the-market/2012052254803" target="_blank">reported the listing in May last year</a>.
{yoogallery src=[images/stories/may23mermaid]} 
Tilley held the house (pictured above) through Hedges Avenue Pty Ltd, and receivers Andrew Fielding and David Whyte were appointed to take control of the company in October last year.
The house was built two years ago after Tilley paid $1.4 million for the 405-square-metre landholding in 2000.
The replacement cost of the property, which has just two bedrooms and a study, has been estimated to be as high as $10 million.
The 20th annual prestige auction event over the week experienced an 80% clearance rate and more than $32 million in sales.
“The sales under the hammer of such high quality properties and the strength of bidding (84 bidders) shows that people have identified that now is the time to make their move on blue chip properties on the Gold Coast,” says RWSP Group’s chief Andrew Bell.
“Bidding was very robust and the prices achieved on most of the properties were a very positive sign. “
“Most of the sales surpassed vendor expectations,” says Bell.
However it was not a happy ending for all, with the Bellagio La Villa – a sprawling estate at Tallebudgera – passed in at $5 million.
{yoogallery src=[images/stories/2013/01/jan18bellagio]}
Bellageio La Villa (pictured above) is home to horse racing enthusiast and property developer Paul Sweeney and his wife, Viki Farrar.
The Sweeneys' luxury home features 10 ensuited bedrooms, plus multiple living areas, a library, media and music rooms, a gym, and indoor pool and spa.
Bell said negotiations would continue with a number of parties interest in the properties.

RWSP Group secures $32 million in sales topped by $5 million on Hedges Avenue

Many home owners in flood-affected or flood-at-risk regions of Queensland and northern NSW have not taken out insurance against natural disasters, despite claims to the contrary by the Insurance Council of Australia (ICA).
The high cost of insurance premiums and social influences have been blamed as factors for the poor take-up.
To date, more than 3,000 properties have been affected by flood waters in Brisbane (Ipswich home below, courtesy of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.flickr.com/">Flickr</a>), with 9,800 insurance claims submitted in Queensland totalling $116 million and around 2,000 in NSW totalling $10 million, according to a report in the Australian Financial Review.
<img alt="insurance" height="294" width="470" src="/images/stories/2013/01/insurance.jpg"> 
According to Allianz figures, as a result of the unaffordable cost of flood cover, 98% of NSW customers with a risk of flood of up to 1 in 49 years have opted out of cover, while the equivalent figure for Queensland is 95%.
The average flood insurance premium offered by Allianz in Queensland is $8,200 but can be as high as $19,000 based on the on the average home and contents sum insured of $385,000 in Queensland.
In NSW, the average annual premium $4,704 but can be as high as $24,000 based on the average home and contents sum insured of $388,500.
These figures are for flood cover only.
They dwarf total insurance premiums (excluding flood cover) of $860 in NSW and $1,250 in Queensland.
In September the Insurance Council of Australia released data showing nearly four in five Australian household insurance policies contain flood insurance.
However, this is predominantly standard flood cover, with just 21,000 out of 2 million policies included in ICA data opting for optional flood cover – presumably of the type offered by Allianz and other insurers covering home owners in high-risk areas.
Allianz spokesman Nicholas Scofield says the key barrier to providing Australians living in flood prone areas with insurance protection “has and always will be the affordability of flood insurance”.
“The main reason is that the insurance model is not best suited for events that have a certainty of happening, rather than just a chance of happening.
“For a house on a flood plain, it is a matter of when not if it will be flooded, so the flood premium starts with a simple formula that begins with the expected value of the loss divided by the anticipated frequency of loss.
“As result, premiums for flood cover for properties vulnerable to flood can be prohibitively expensive,” he says.
In its submission to the federal government's Natural Disaster Insurance Review, commissioned following the 2011 Queensland floods, Allianz proposed a reinsurance-style pool as mechanism to make flood insurance affordable.
“The review picked up Allianz's proposal in its recommendations, however, the government is yet to respond to this aspect of the review,” says Schofield.
The federal government review did not recommend mandatory purchase of flood insurance, leaving it up to home owners in flood-at-risk regions to decide whether they wish to bear the risk.
 
<hr class="system-pagebreak">
 
A research project carried out by Griffith University found that of 500 residents of south-east Queensland surveyed in 2012 (via telephone), more than 40% of respondents did not have flood insurance, or did not have home insurance at all.
The survey found that those respondents who know their homes were at high risk of flooding or who had experienced property damage in the 2011 were more likely to have flood cover on current policies, but did not find a strong positive relationship.
“Statistically, it is not conclusive to suggest that perceived risk and damage experience explain the tendency for non-insurance,” says Alex Lo, lecturer at the Griffith School of Environment at Griffith University, who carried out the research in The Conversation.
It also found that those who could afford the higher flood insurance premiums tended to insure against this disaster, but again there was no strong statistical relationship.
“Household income and affordability are not a good explanation either. The standard assumption does not always hold,” he says.
Lo says the motive to emerge from the study for taking out flood insurance was social influences
“The findings suggest that if the respondents believe that their family or friends would want them to insure, they tend to do so. Also if they believe that other people like them would buy flood cover, they tend to follow suit. The decision is predominantly socially motivated,” he says.
"Interestingly, such social factors are precisely what the Productivity Commission has identified but recommended not to deal with through government policy.
"Certainly there is something the market cannot do, for which the government should at least facilitate. Although it might not be appropriate for them to mobilise social influence directly, they should try to make sure the community has the capacity to spread the message. There is no excuse for the government to avoid addressing behavioural drivers. Governments have been using all sort of measures to encourage good behaviours and punish the bad ones.
"Local community organisations may help increase the voluntary adoption of flood insurance through word-of-mouth. Governments and the industry should support (financially) their efforts and harness the social forces they help to create," says Lo.
Submissions on exposure draft legislation aimed at making it easier for consumers to understand the terms of their insurance policies closed on December 12, led by financial services minister Bill Shorten.
Since the 2011 floods, the government has also introduced a standard definition of flood and a one page key facts sheet for all home and contents policies to help Australian consumers understand what they are covered for as well as launched the National Flood Risk Information Portal – an online “one-stop-shop for flood risk information”.

One of Brisbane’s most prominent heritage riverfront homes has sold.
Listed in April 2011, <a href="https://cbmb.com.au/selling/QLD/Brisbane-City/NEW-FARM/House/2P0793" target="_blank">The Moorings </a>– a Tudor-style mansion at <a target="_parent" href="/news">New Farm</a> – has been sold for around an unconfirmed $4.5 million.
Its vendors paid $575,000 in 1993 and it had sold at $35,550, in 1973.
Its most recent official land value was $3 million for the 524-square-metre holding.
The five-bedroom home boasts timber finishes, including red mahogany floors and cast iron features.
Its grassed terraces fronting the river have protected the home during the past great floods in 1974 and 2011.
Legend has it the house was built by an English doctor whose wife cherished a dinner plate embossed with a picture of a grand Tudor house.
The house was built in the image of the picture.
It had been listed most recently through Gold Coast agent Carol Carter of Coldwell Banker.

The Gold Coast home of international footballer Craig Moore has been listed for onsite February 3 auction. 
The Hope Island house was built after the block cost $665,000 in 2003.
It's been listed through McGrath Property agent Philip Chillemi <a href="https://www.mcgrath.com.au/buy/house-hope-island-qld-4212/171809/?searchID=25664384" target="_blank">with $1.6 million to $2 million expectations</a>.
'It's one of Hope Island’s most prestigious and beautifully built homes," Philip Chillemi's marketing says.
"Architecturally designed, it offers the ultimate waterfront lifestyle with the privacy of a celebrity home," it says.
Craig Moore captained Australia’s Olympic soccer team in 2004 and played with the Socceroos in the 2006 and 2010 World Cups.
The five-bedroom waterfront home should sell for $1.6 to $2 million at auction on February 3.
It's been on and off the market since June 2011. Late last year Moore was seeking $2.35 million for the property, which is set on a 1,006-square-metre block.
