AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND INVESTORS’ INTENTIONS: PROPERTY PORTFOLIO (NEXT SIX MONTHS)


% 5


Residential and development sites are increasingly popular among ANZ investors || John Marasco


INVESTORS GUIDED BY FUNDAMENTALS 34 61


Expand/increase level of investment Maintain/consolidate/rebalance current investments Reduce/sell current investments


The guiding principles for property investment remain consistent with last year. Property fundamentals are the most important, followed by economic growth and then yield. Interestingly, given the focus on depreciation of the Australian dollar, this is considered to be one of the least important considerations.


Despite being confident about conditions and expecting investment volumes to grow, the proportion of investors planning to increase their portfolios has declined slightly in 2014 to 61% compared to 72% last year. Very few respondents (5%) plan to reduce/sell their investments, with the main reason cited for doing this was to be able to reinvest profits later or elsewhere in real estate.
