Agents in Aspley have noticed a significant spike in the number of investors coming from Sydney.
“Seventy per cent of our investor purchasers [are] coming from Sydney and about 25 per cent of our owner-occupiers [are] also from Sydney,” Stone Aspley principal Tristan Rowland said.
Mr Rowland and his wife and agency director Samantha Rowland, who both have 15 years’ experience in real estate, have been active agents in the North Brisbane market.
With a keen interest in the area from the Harbour City, Mr Rowland wanted to leverage an open database that would give them an edge. As a result, the duo joined Stone Real Estate and started their own agency under the brand.
As part of Stone, they can get information from the database to support their work in Brisbane.
“The ability to offer this unique service to clients gives us a huge advantage in this particular region,” Mr Rowland said.
“The way this database works is unique to the industry — Stone is the only brand that has a genuine shared database.”
Aspley was recently identified as the most affordable and liveable suburb in Brisbane, which is another reason the database will be helpful, he said.
A BIS Oxford Economics Residential Property Prospects report says Brisbane is forecast to see a 20 per cent growth in property values by 2022, well ahead of other Australian capitals.
“Stone’s network is ideal for us and our future, especially given the attractiveness of Brisbane’s Northern Suburbs for both owner-occupiers and investors,” Mr Rowland said.
