There's an air of cynicism – or maybe it's just weary experience – around this week's Flat Chat Wrap podcast, but we only have ourselves to blame. Last week we were touting the potential for a mandatory strata management contract – like the residential tenancies lease in that the legal conditions would be fixed, but the financial terms would be variable – and realised we were joining a chorus of support for the idea, notably promoted by the Owners Corporation Network. What we and they didn't realise is that Fair Trading has already nixed the idea in its review of strata laws that will occur this year. Citing the views of the ACSL (which turns out to be the Australian College of Strata Lawyers, something we didn't know when we recorded the podcast), the Law Society, the Urban Development Institute of Australia (developers) and PICA, the strata and building management giant, the policy wonks have decided that they won't have a mandatory contract but they will come up with conditions that must not be in contracts and clauses that must. We're calling BS on the proposal, not least because there is already a mandatory contract – the one issued by strata managers on a take it or leave it basis. After years of saying we should have a strata commissioner, it seems we already have one. The published remit of the Property Services Commissioner includes strata, it seems. Does that John Minns is the Strata Commissioner? We're going to track him down and find out. We also explore the idea of subsidised private rentals for frontline workers like nurses, ambos, teachers and police. And we chat about some bizarre tribunal cases from Queensland, including a block that wanted residents to carry pets in cages up 16 floors in the fire stairs and another that tried to ban doormats. And final our friends at Strata Answers are looking into the successes and challenges of strata owners who want electric vehicle charging in their blocks – how they succeeded if they did get it in, and why they failed if they didn't. All that and more in this week's Flat Chat Wrap. TRANSCRIPT IN FULL Jimmy 00:00 I've got a feeling we're going to be disappointing some of our listeners this week. Sue Oh no, why?! Jimmy 00:04 Because we've been talking about the strata management contracts and how a lot of us think there should be a standard strata management contract. Sue 00:14 Oh, yes. Jimmy 00:15 The same way as there is a prescriptive one for rentals. Everybody has to use that contract and even if they don't use that contract, the law says well, that contract applies. Even if you've got a verbal contract and nothing on paper, that contract still applies. Sue 00:32 Yes, we were hoping the New South Wales government was going to bring that out. For strata residents? Jimmy 00:35 Yes, so we have some updated news on that. And, we're going to talk about pets in Queensland and doormats in Queensland. We're going to talk about the new Property Services Commissioner, John Minze and, we're going to talk about some research into electric vehicles. For strata residents. So, a lot to talk about; we'd better get on with it. I'm Jimmy Thomson, I write the Flat Chat column for the Australian Financial Review. Sue 01:04 And I'm Sue Williams. I write about property for Domain. Jimmy 01:06 And this is the Flat Chat Wrap. We've been having a debate in the Flat Chat forum... Somebody wrote and said they'd just had a look at their strata management contract, and they couldn't believe how one-sided it was. Basically, the problem is there are so many provisions in there that say that the strata manager isn't liable for anything that they've ever done and even in the unlikely event that you do find that they were liable for something, then that liability is limited to how much you have paid them in the past two years. We discussed this last week. Basically,

Welcome to Finance and Fury. In this episode we look at the future of the supply of property in Australia. We will talk about the availability of land in Australia, look at the population density and supply of developments, as well as what the future supply has in store – assuming that the demand stays constant, then the areas with under supply will see price gains – those with supply abundance will see price stagnation Australia is a unique country – outside of places like Antarctica, or Greenland with massive land masses but with relativity greater areas of unliveable space – compared to many other nations, we have a high rate of urbanisation with high levels of unused land Looking at the land use in Australia – Area KM2 and portion of Australia as a % Land for Intensive uses (mainly urban) 16,822 0.22% Rural residential 9,491 0.12% Australia's population is estimated to be 25.5m - of this population around 86% of people are living in urban areas – This is fairly similar to many other western nations – US is about 83%, UK 84%, France 81% - then you have nations like Singapore or HK – sitting at 100% What is different is the portion of the land that goes towards housing this urban population – US have 3% of the nations land that houses this urban population, and in the UK it is 5% - remember that Australia is 0.22% - or 13.6 and 22.7 times greater respectively So in Australia - Using some simple math – Just under 22m people are living in 0.22% of the nations land mass There are some major reasons for this – First - Large portions of Australia are rather inhabitable - 18% of the Australian mainland is considered to be desert, but about 35% of the Australian continent receives so little rain that large population centres never sprang up there – Fresh water is always important, but also rainfall for vegetation for food and livestock – apart from Antarctica, Australia is the driest continent on earth – so much of our land has reduced liveability But when accounting for the inhabitable land – assuming it is 35% of the continent – then this still means that the land use for urban population is 0.34% - or 10 times lower than the US Secondly - The period of settlement of Australia – focused on the coast and major harbours or river inflows Over time – major cities sprung up – Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Canberra, Adelaide, Perth – but not in the same manner as other nations that have had hundreds of additional years of development in a different technological era – where the population was given a greater chance to sprawl before technology made urbanisation easier – Urbanisation is only possible in developed countries due to technology Transportation and infrastructure, as well as water and food supplies used to be the major issues for having large sprawling cities Transportation and infrastructure – cars, trains, buses, roads – sewage and power – all important to house millions of people in a dense urban area Water and food – the ability for people to live in cities is a hard logistical task - this does come back to transportation and infrastructure – how do you produce enough food and provide enough fresh water to people in the millions – but then you need to transport this into city centres – just in time supply chains Because Australia was starting to grow in population when these problems had mostly been solved – there was no need for population sprawl like in many other nations where the burden needed to be spread out before technology and innovation took over – When comparing Australia to other nations with larger levels of land supply – this starts to become obvious – Big cities – London makes up 13.5% of the UK population, or New York making up 2.5% of the US population - but Sydney makes up 21% of the population of Australia This limited supply of land surrounding these major cities when accounting for demand is a large part of why the price of property in London, New York and Sydney is higher relative to many other cities in these respective nations Where does this leave us as a nation when it comes to property supply in the future – We have a massive potential to achieve property affordability in Australia when compared to a nation like Singapore – but not in a practical way based around the way that we live, or want to live If every person living in cities moved to rural areas, we would see more of a normalisation of property prices i.e. the price of rural properties would rise, whilst CBD prices would decline – on average property could become more affordable - But as previously mentioned – this is not how many people want to live – most people need to be close to their place of employment or alternatively, wish to have the lifestyle that a bigger city affords – therefore, people wish to live close to cities – hence to help with population growth and demand for property, additional supply needs to become available When looking at the property supply development – what are the options to increase the supply of land? more realistic expectations and what town planning is likely to focus on is considered grayfield, greenfield brownfield and infill development – Grayfield land is economically obsolescent, outdated, failing, or underused real estate assets or land. name coming from the "sea" of empty asphalt concrete that often accompanies these sites – we all know these types of areas – run down places with lots of older industrial sites/sheds that has seen prices go up Many of these areas used to be formerly-viable retail and commercial shopping sites but have suffered from lack of reinvestment and have been "outclassed" by larger, better-designed, better-anchored malls or shopping sites - major tenants have vacated the premises leaving behind empty shells – or they are currently rented but the owners offer large prices to buy up these premises Similar to greyfield – we have Infill development - within an urban community, it is the construction on any undeveloped land that is not to be considered on the urban margin We all have seen this type of development – a developer buys 2-4 old properties located in an inner-city suburb and puts up 100 units in their place This development could also be called "land recycling" Infill has been promoted as an economical use of existing infrastructure and a remedy for urban sprawl A greenfield is an area of agricultural or forest land, or some other undeveloped site earmarked for commercial development, industrial projects or other construction projects. Around 20% of Australia's land is Nature conservation and other protected areas (includes Indigenous uses) – this area is not going to be available for greenfield – but with the right regulations – many other areas of supply could be opened up When driving outside of cities – you can often see lots of available land – if it has trees on it or is open fields – assuming that it isn't already owned by a private individual – this would be considered greenfield Many housing estates come into existence through greenfield development – but these can take a number of years longer than to infill - master-planned community such as major housing estates can take between 12 and 14 years to complete – this is from the initial developer purchase of the land, to regulatory planning, all the way to the first person moving in So, the options will be between green, greyfield and infill development for city areas Greenfield developments – housing completions – most often in new estates outside of the CBD – in outer lying suburbs – often 30+ minutes' drive to the city centre Greyfield and Infill developments – multi-unit completions – these will be the supply of property within the CBD radius Areas around Australia – Stats from Urban Development Institute of Australia Sydney – Long run average is around 31k p.a. of new residential market supply Since 2016 – supply has been above the long run average – But this average is broken down between greenfield housing completions and multi-unit completions – at the last update: greenfield housing completions – 8k multi-unit completions – 27k The supply of units to houses is very different – many more apartments being completed Melbourne – Long run average is around 38k p.a. of new residential market supply Since 2016 – supply has been above the long run average – greenfield housing completions – 18k multi-unit completions – 24k Units to houses are closer – more units than houses Brisbane and SEQ – Long run average is around 19k p.a. of new residential market supply Since 2015 – supply has been above the long run average – greenfield housing completions – 11k multi-unit completions – 11k Almost a 50/50 ratio between houses and apartments Adelaide and Perth are similar – both see a fairly even distribution between houses and apartments Like Sydney – the ACT stands out for apartment completions – but the total completions are vastly lower – the long-term average is around 3.8k – of those 800 are greenfield and 3k are apartments Looking at these trends and how to apply these to what this means for Property prices – when demand outstrips supply – prices will rise for property – but when supply outstrips demand – prices will fall This supply can be broken down into houses (both existing and greenfield) as well as apartments (infill) The future of housing property – limited supply close to the CBD - and uncertain demand So in other words - Greenfield and infill will bear the brunt of property availability for major cities moving forward when it comes to homes and apartments However - The closer to the city you get, the higher the probability that it is either greyfield or infill As For apartments – greyfield and infill development will be where the supply of these properties come from For the increase in supply of property in homes, this will come from outer lying suburbs What to look for and what to avoid – purely looking from a supply perspective – Available greenfield and greyfield areas need to be paid attention to For homes – if you are buying a home in an area with a lot of available land surrounding it – then there is a higher chance that you may not see any capital growth for a while until the land is fully developed For Apartments – if you buy an apartment in an area with either a lot of old run down homes, or commercial sites that are looking a little old – there is a chance that many new apartments can spring up around you This equation is more detrimental than for residential properties – as a few residential properties or one commercial property can turn into a hundred+ apartments If you are looking for capital growth – it is best to avoid areas/sites that can be developed with increasing the supply of property – i.e. increasing the residential capacity through multiplying the number of houses from the same land supply This is mainly relevant to apartments – if you have a block of land in an area (with a house on it or not) that it is hard to increase the supply of land – i.e. everything is already built out on – then this can see capital growth Suburbs with limited available land and new houses, i.e. not derelict properties – that are closer to the city and do not have the capacity to be built out – these can rise in value – or at least maintain much of their value – The sector that is unlikely to grow in capital value – assuming demand stays constant – are apartments – the supply can outstrip demand easily compart to greenfield – For greenfield projects – as time goes on, you need to start looking further and further out from the CBD as the land supply gets soaked up However – for greyfield or infill projects – you will find this land often within 5-10km of the CBD – the maths for this exchange doesn't bode well for supply versus demand – think about turning 2-4 properties into 100 – this only works if you own one of the properties being turned into the 100 – as you can command a higher price – but if you own an apartment in the area and now this is turned into one of thousands – then the supply can outstrip demand – which means that there are few people who can demand your property This is just one side to the equation – need to look at demand – which will be covered in next episode http://udia.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/State-of-the-Land-2020-Summary-of-Headline-Statistics.pdf Thank you for listening to today's episode.

The Urban Development Institute's Pat Gerace joins Michael and Daniel for Episode #8 of Adelaide (un)Planned. Historically Adelaide has often led Australia in urban development trends, so how will today's developers respond to the challenges of Covid-19 and the potential effects on consumer sentiment? Have recent planning reforms been good for developers? Why developers want more greening in our streets and suburbs as much as anyone, but shouldn't have to do all the heavy lifting. And hear Pat's vision for a more connected community in Adelaide.
There's a policy in place that may be preventing this from happening. Anne McMullin from the Urban Development Institute tells us why

As we've been hearing, developers were hoping for more incentives to build rental housing in this year's provincial budget. Concerns are being raised by groups like the Urban Development Institute that if the supply of homes for purchase or rental doesn't increase, demand will push prices up again. So should the government be doing more? Guest: Andrey Pavlov Professor of Finance at the Beedie School of Business at Simon Fraser University

Vancouver City Council voted unanimously in support of a motion aimed at protecting tenants from renovictions and aggressive buyouts. Council unanimously passed Coun. Jean Swanson's motion to huge cheers from the dozens of advocates at city hall on Tuesday night. Landlords will be required to offer displaced tenants the chance to temporarily move out during a renovation without their lease ending or their rent increasing. Staff will be coming back with a report on a few other items, including one that deals with compensation during a renovation. Jon Stovell if the President of Reliance Properties, the company at the centre of this renoviction debate. His company purchased the The Berkeley Tower in 2016 for $43 million. Last summer, residents were told by the developer that they would be evicted so that a major reconstruction and structural work can be undertaken, as the aging building requires upgrades in order to extend its lifespan. Since those notices went out, renters have been fighting the renovictions. What does he think about yesterday's motion from city hall?

Ep 210 Anne McMullin In Search of Real Estate Solutions The never ending saga of real estate woes continues unabated. Provincial and City governments at every turn continue to mess it up. Home ownership and home rental is getting harder to acquire. At last estimate, the vacancy rate on rental properties was between 0.3 - 0.9%, making it next to impossible to get affordable rental housing. New homes are equally difficult to purchase especially in the mid-range. That’s homes with three bedrooms – and forget a new three-bedroom and den. This is forcing a paradigm shift in thinking about what is a mid-range home. Density is another issue; we’ve built transit lines and, in many areas, we’ve restricted density around stations that are under-utilized because they are zoned for single-family homes. There is a chorus of voices that cry out for more development. Properties developers say they’d happily build if only they could get through the stifling permit process – a permitting process that is slow and has fees that are an upward moving target. Fees that insure the building of rental housing doesn’t make sense. Fees that are adding up to $200,000 to new homes and in doing driving up prices, the very thing governments say they want to decrease. We invited Anne McMullin of the Urban Development Institute to join us for a Conversation That Matters about strategies she says could go a long way to relieve the pressure on the Greater Vancouver housing market. Simon Fraser University’s Centre for Dialogue presents Conversations That Matter.
