This article will give you an idea that how does WA government help first time home buyers and how do the policies affect the market. And this article also makes a prediction for real estate market in the future.
People buying a home for the first time in Western Australia have much to rejoice as premier Alan Carpenter has announced a $120 million help for people wanting to buy a house for the first time. This will help people to enter the housing market. The government will provide a low deposit loan and rest thirty to forty percent of the equity will be borne by the government.
Eventually once the finance of the individual or the family is better they can buy out the government share. The stamp duties on the property will also be cut. This will further ease the burden while buying a house.
A seventy million dollar has been promised to be put into the WA housing scheme if they win the election. This is in addition to the fifty million dollars that has already been earmarked for the scheme.
Alan Carpenter believes that this will allow low and medium income group people, adding to almost another thousand western Australian people to buy a new home, a place of their own. This will allow them to enter the housing market.
Mr. Carpenter made the announcement during the election campaign at Seville Grove. The innovative scheme was introduced last year. It helped
almost two thousand families to own a home in Western Australia. The scheme is a resounding success that is the reason why the premier wants to continue with the program.
The housing market was in a much better shape when the scheme was first started. It allowed many people to move into a place of their own or at least start constructing one. The scheme will allow more and more people to enter the housing market.
Many critics feel that this announcement by the government is an indicator of the fact that the housing market is in a worse shape than ever. The pressures of the global economy and tougher borrowing conditions will further pull down the market.
The residential sector showed a very dismal start for initial period of 2008. There seem to be no signs of it improving in the next quarter. Housing Industry Association sees it to be a downward trend.
Such a scheme is welcome start to the industry which would otherwise see a short fall of almost twenty five thousand houses by the 2010. With the population on the rise and no new construction being done this shortage is bound to happen.
The short fall of houses will only lead to higher rents and price of the existing house will be unpredictably high. The Housing Industry Association shows data that Western Australia is the second-most high priced district for first-home buyers in Australia. Queensland stands at the first position. The scheme will make purchasing a house much more affordable in Western Australia.
