New Property Listings in New Zealand

Share |

According to NZ Herald, new property listings are actually in decline especially for May 2009.

"The number of new property listings declined for the third month in a row, with listings in May dropping a further 5 per cent on April, according to the property website Realestate.co.nz.

The website's monthly NZ Property Report showed only 9993 new listings were added to the market in May, 29 per cent down on the same figure for May 2008, said chief executive Alistair Helm."


However this report does not present the exact information and can be quite manipulative. In New Zealand, some property companies are controlling the release of new properties for sale to control the market perception of the NZ property market downturn. Also, many home owners are selling privately and don't even advertise the sale of their homes.

In some rural residential areas, you'd be amazed to see the number of properties for sale within a community versus the number of houses actually there.

In fact, just last month, I visited a property near the beach worth NZ140,000. It was on a 2000sqm block, with a nice lavender garden, an outdoor jacuzzi and a 3 bd cottage and a 2-car garage.

The property market in NZ is still struggling. So you need to know the real deal before you listen to NZ news or NZ real estate statistics.

The "New Zealand Property Report 2009" by author Andrew Sheldon is the most comprehensive property guide for foreign and local property and real estate investors in New Zealand. The author is an international property investor who has had more than 10 yrs of experience buying great value properties in Japan, Philippines and New Zealand.

NZ Real Estate Update 2009

Share |

NZ dollar plummeted for the 2nd time against the US dollar. The falling NZ currency is among the most popular reasons why this is the right time to buy NZ real estate.

Despite the increasing demand for NZ real estate and the more promising sales figures in March 2009, NZ property analysts still admit that property prices are at their lowest for the last 12 months. If you have been dreaming of a cozy holiday house at the countryside, this is your chance to enter the property market.

Amidst all this frenzy on buying NZ real estate, there are risks that investors need to know. Knowledge of these risks and other strategies in buying the right NZ property is paramount in making sure you get value for your money. You do not need to do months of research. You do not need to attend boring seminars on real estates. You do not have to listen to biased opinion on NZ real estate.

"New Zealand Property Report 2009" tells you all the objective and factual issues you need to deal with them buying NZ real estate.

This eBook describes the opportunities to buy cheap properties in NZ as the global credit crunch restores property in commodity producing countries to 'bargain' prices. The bargains are already there, but they are not widespread. For the next few years you will need to be a canny property investor to identify the opportunities. We show you where to find high yielding property investments, whether as a pure investment or a lifestyle proposition, and how you can still earn capital gains on your property acquisitions. This 160+ page book will be timely for investors unsure about where to place their money, retirees seeking new adventures, and lifestylers like myself who want to cut out of the contemporary groove of an office worker and do something creative and different.....and still make money.

NZ is already recognised as a tourist haven. But it also has some compelling benefits for property investors, such as ZERO capital gains tax, stamp duty, GST and transfer taxes. None!

Author of this book is Andrew Sheldon, Australian property investor. He has experienced buying properties worldwide - at the right time. Andrew is a consummate researcher, a strategic and critical analyst who spends time traveling around Japan, Philippines, Australia and New Zealand.

Opportunity to Live in Japan

Share |
Whether you are a trader, a programmer, a writer, journalist, graphic artist or web designer, if you are earning a foreign currency income and work form your computer, there is a good reason you might want to consider living in Japan. Many a foreigner has been charmed by Japan. For people who have lived there, there are few places to match it. The city nightlife, the food, the culture, the people, the expat district (not just Roppongi). It is truly one of the best lifestyle destinations in the world. Can you imagine being able to buy a house there for as little as $US10,000. Not central Tokyo mind you. But we were able to buy two places for under Y3.5mil ($US40,000) just 1-1.5 hours from Tokyo, which places you at least close to the action. You can get cheaper for more, or closer to smaller cities for less.

There are various opportunities for buying the right property in Japan:

1. You may setup an English Tutoring Business.
2. You may rent out the property to students with an amazing yield.
3. You may get rid of your rent payments, enjoy a first world country and a natural, culture-rich experience.
4. You may study in Japan as they are offering several graduate programs.
5. Or you may simply enjoy the luxury of owning a real asset and have a holiday in one of the best countries anytime you want.

However, just like any other investment, you need to strategically analyze the factors involved in buying a property in Japan. You also need to know the risks to better manage it. Owning a property in Japan is a big opportunity for the serious and creative investors.

This guide "Japan Foreclosed Property 2009" is the latest edition of the tips and techniques in buying the best value property in Japan. Author Andrew Sheldon is an international property investor and critical analyst. He already did all the research having bought a couple of properties himself. So do not reinvent the wheel and make a well-informed decision faster.

Why Move to New Zealand?

Share |

The falling prices of properties in New Zealand create great bargain opportunities for foreigners who are in strong positions to buy property.

New Zealand is the first choice of many British expats due to its relatively more pleasant weather conditions. Fifteen degrees celsius, cool spring weather in New Zealand is a hot summer in UK where winter is freezing at -6 degrees celsius.

The cost of food, gas and basic commodities are far cheaper in New Zealand and the british pound has strong buying power here.

One misconception of many foreigners who have been reluctant to buy property in New Zealand is that the income level in New Zealand is only around 30K USD per year compared to the average American income of 46K USD per year. The internet revolution is a foreigner's solution to his anticipated low wages in New Zealand. He can very well earn in stronger foreign currencies while spending quality family time in New Zealand.

If you have been wanting to move to a more pleasant climate with warm, friendly people; If you have been wanting to explore the world or be in touch with nature; If you have been dreaming of a healthier lifestyle and improve your family interaction; New Zealand is the place to be. With the current fallign New Zealand currency, it's one of the best investments - guaranteed.

New Zealand's two major cities: Auckland and Wellington are ranked at top 10 best places to live on earth. But there are many muchcheaper cities around New Zealand like Christchurch, Dunedin and Otago on the South Island. Some of these smaller cities don't even rank a mention in international surveys because they are too small to rank on some analysts radar. British, Americans, Germans consider it a vacation of a lifetime to explore the whole country. Why? The beautiful scenery, first world country standards, friendly people, an abundance of outdoor activities, low cost of property and the lifestyle. New Zealand's scenic beauty has long been recognised. It became the set for re-knowned movies like "Lord of the Rings", Narnia, King Kong (by Peter Jackson), The Last Samurai, The Piano and The Frighteners.

Where to Put Your Money in Uncertain Times

Share |


In these uncertain times people will be wondering where to place their money. Firstly there was no question there was going to be a financial crisis - it was merely a question of when. WHEN the Dow and other markets broke historic support, it was only a question of HOW far will it for, and HOW much money will the government through at the problem to delay the inevitable.

I will suggest a strategy forward. A lot of generalisations are made, so I will offer specific investment opportunities. This is however a top-down analysis:

1. Gold mining stocks - Stimulus will eventually result in governments printing money.

2. Precious metals - Silver, platinum, palladium are all good. They are not as good as stocks because stocks have greater leverage as mining revenues rise faster than costs. Also gold stocks were over-sold in the recent stock price correction. Silver has risen 50% in just two months.

3. CFDs or derivatives in precious metals – This is another form of exposure to precious metals – whether you are talking about options, futures, or contracts for difference - mind you, you are taking a counterparty risk.

4. Foreclosed property in Japan - outlook not great now, but great yields outside the city, premature to buy in the city CBDs. Outer fringe areas make great buying, rural areas always good for lifestyle. Sooo cheap! You could buy a house for as little as $10-20,000 due to depopulation.

5. Broad Stocks: People are very negative on broad stocks: By that I mean all stocks outside the precious metals arena. I think if you cannot buy stock exposure for the long term, but there is no reason why you cannot trade rallies using chart signals. People look at the 1970s and 1930s and look at the dismal returns, but there were rallies in this period. So I suggest learning and using charts to trade medium term rallies. No long term ‘buy & hold’ investing.

6. Rural property in NZ - City property is overpriced, but if you don’t need to work in the city, or want to rent, then prices are modest, and the NZD is at a low point for foreigners earning USD,JPY,EUR. The NZD has fallen from USD0.80 to USD0.50. So great currency trade in beautiful country, no capital gains tax or transfer taxes, no GST on property. People will say the economy is in bad shape. Yeh, that's why it’s cheap. It’s a counter-cyclical investment, but when cheap, sell when currency recovers in 4-5 years. The 9% budget deficit will turn around like it did in the 1990s. Expect compulsory super to boost savings.

7. Property in the Philippines - regional property is more appealing, as it will benefit from more call centres going there. Yes, during a contraction, Western call centres are still shifting to the Philippines. More are being set up in smaller regional centres rather than Metro Manila as the infrastructure improves.
You can find more info by searching Google for foreclosed property. A lot of Westerners are doing it, and it makes sense if you are living there for a few years. Japan & the Philippines property markets are among the most under-leveraged and did not have the big gains. That will be important when the global economic activity finally picks up.

8. Foreclosed property in USA: It is still too premature to buy foreclosed property in the USA; I would suggest waiting until the bottom which will likely correspond with a peak in the Adjustable Rate Mortgage terms, so say another 8 months. Again we are looking for yields, so let that be your guide to where. Unless you are seeing rental yields over 10% then you are not getting good value.

9. Currency: Currencies are an interest asset class because they are essentially priced in relative terms as opposed to the absolute value of other asset classes. My favourites are:

a. South African Rand: South Africa is the largest producer of gold, palladium and platinum in the world, so the terms of trade for RSA are going to improve greatly as precious metal prices rise. The unfortunate aspect is that this will drive many mining companies broke as the strong Rand will undermine Rand revenues. So avoid RSA mining stocks.

b. Chinese Yuan: As long as China is the lowest cost producer and has the capacity to generate its own internal demand it will do relatively better, which is what currencies are about.

c. Swiss Francs: Governments and the elite of the world have much of their assets in Switzerland as they have done for hundreds of years. Thus Switzerland is always a safe investment.

d. Japanese Yen: I can expect the USD will fall to 87yen/$ support in future, though no further as the US economy has underlying strength.

Buy a HOUSE In New Zealand HOW??

Share |

The timing for investing in city property is premature since these prices are still falling. I however I recommend investors buy a rural-based property to establish a base in the country. Some rural property is offering excellent yields and the very low NZD offers a superb opportunity to lock in a very attractive cross rate, as well as giving you the opportunity to mortgage your local home to purchase more property. Depending on whether you intend to live here, repay the loan from offshore income (which makes excellent sense), the benefits are readily apparent.

There are also compelling financial benefits for property investors, including ZERO capital gains tax, stamp duty, GST and transfer taxes. None on property! This will suit medium to long term investors depending on their investment objectives.
