You consider you have a monopoly on insults?That is just insulting.
Perhaps you could describe the retirement situation you are referring to. There are hundreds of high quality retirement villages where people can buy a property. either freehold or leasehold, and still receive whatever level of care they need, at prices between $250K and $1M+.Have you priced a retirement home recently? We did the exercise a few years ago for a relative.... 300K bond and 60K a year!
Time to go again
Had enough of romper room after a few posts
Leave you to it kiddies.

A bond refers only to nursing homes which I doubt is what most baby boomers have in mind for their retirement fergawdsake!
Sorry if I am a little too romper room for you adults, BTW I am a boomer by the way many demographers draw the line... but then even that is a little blurry, its a fat line if you look across the industry!
Keep it simple. I believe the simple call it KISS.
I come here for another reason entirely.
Watching the nature of this thread change has been interesting.
distressed commercial properties on the Coast showed investors were picking up bargains.
"This suggests there is demand for these properties at discount prices because investors can see they are undervalued assets," Ms Murdoch said.
From the link above:
They must be perceived as undervalued to sell? Huh!
The property market should have a share price attached for realization.
Yes …, I know, it's all media selling papers and all..... Here's one I've just dug up. The latest sale for that particular area:

45% loss in 6 years. $1,625,000 to $900,000 (Nov 2012)
Doesn't look right to me. Perhaps the 1.6m was actually 0.6m?Hilariously tragic. Someone just lost a fortune !

I'm sure you're 100% correct in everything you say. Obviously, you have decided only your opinion is worthwhile. That's fine. I haven't the interest or energy to argue. Much more serious stuff to attend to after massive storm here over several days.I generally retort in kind. What is your problem Julia, you consider I have not been civil to you? Report me to teacher if that is the case.
Hello Kennas, so it's a 50% profit in 6 years? That's better than a 45% loss. That's good going then!
I know what you mean..... but what is likely, really?
1996: 260k
2006: 1.6m
2012: 900k
I'm just not sure about these price sales figures. Anywhere.
Maybe prices really did explode between 96 and 06.
1996: 260k
2006: 1.6m
2012: 900k
That is what we've been trying to say over 500 pages of thread.
Thanks for the analysis. I thought the crazy hockey stick boom in SEQ land was from 2007-10. Geeesh.From a quick Gold Coast City Council search the land was registed in mid 1989. Possibly 7 years after the land could have still been vacant reflecting a sale at the 260K. Making the sale $96- per metre in 1996. (The land is 2678 square metres)
From experience in 2006 - 2007 I know the market hit $470 per metre for Gold Coast Industrial land. Making the land in question alone $1.258 million. To build 1000 square metres of tin shed would cost 1/2 that of a a tilt slab equating to $400- per metre. 1.258 + 400 = $1.658 million if the shed was new. Or $1658 per square metre of finished factory space.
Tilt slab factory space was over $2000- per metre finished in 2006 - 2007. Burleigh Heads hit $3000- per metre although it would have been alot smaller dwellings.
Vendors are hanging out for their $2000 per metre+ but they arn't going to get it anytime soon. A terrible possition many must be in and if you have to sell and there are no buyers what choice do you have? Every second to third factory is for sale or lease. If your a buyer "How long can you go without a tenant?"
The figures would be accurate.....

I wish you every success.

Yup. The Baby Boomer generation has monopolised prosperity for such a long time it has become normal. In the years to come, as they start to retire, things will adjust and generation x will largely be the managers of generation y who will replace the boomers. As gen y are largely non-home owning, prices will fall so that they can become the new generation of home owners otherwise the political system of central banking policy starts to fail. If no one is borrowing, no one will be lending and no new money will enter the system causing deflation and economic turmoil.
