WELCOME

Richard Young - CEO, Caporn Young Estate Agents

A NEW ERA FOR CAPORN YOUNG It’s with great pride that we are unveiling a sophisticated new look for Caporn Young next month. Our company culture is all about innovation and moving forward, and we’ve evolved dramatically in the last few years. It was therefore important for us to develop a new visual identity that reflected our philosophy.

We’ve refreshed our branding and logo, and also redesigned our suite of marketing tools.

come as Perth reaches a turning point in its real estate market. Transaction volumes are up, and medium prices in most suburbs have lifted. In some markets, low levels of properties available for sale means we are seeing multiple buyers competing for the same property.

CY Magazine is published by: Caporn Young Estate Agents - Claremont Head Office 4/355 Stirling Highway Claremont, WA 6010 For advertising or other enquiries, please contact Patricia Cheah on (08) 9385 5559.

CY Magazine is distributed free of charge to the shaded areas below:

We’ve seen relatively strong demand in more centralised suburbs such as Claremont, Applecross and Cottesloe. The team is consistently selling a property a day in these areas, often attracting multiple serious buyers.

Although we’re in the market of selling real estate, we are also selling people a new lifestyle.

So we wanted our branding to feel more like a lifestyle brand. The new look is elegant and understated, consistent with the properties we represent on the market.

Last weekend for example, three out of our four auction properties sold after spirited bidding from multiple bidders. This included a home in Cottesloe that sold for ($1.9M), another in Floreat ($2.75M) and East Fremantle ($2.85M).

We also agreed a healthy number of Private Treaty sales over what was a very busy weekend in Real Estate.

The old brand served us very well and got us to where we are today, but the new brand will enable us to go to the next level with our growth strategy. Coincidentally, these changes

History tells us that this activity should soon radiate out into the adjoining suburbs – once the pent up buyer demand has been satisfied, my feeling is we will enter a nicely balanced market.

RENTAL REVIEW

Lee Fitzgerald - Licensee | Property Management Team Leader

A TALE OF TWO MARKETS There are two interesting trends in Perth´s rental market right now. On one hand, there´s an oversupply of vacant apartments throughout the metropolitan area, as well as newly built houses in outer suburbs. On the other hand, we´re experiencing shortages of quality family homes around the western suburbs, as well as premium riverside and coastal areas.

Stock levels in these desirable areas have tightened due to higherthan-normal numbers of owners selling their investment properties or moving back in. We now have a database full of tenants waiting for their perfect home.

On the coalface, the local rental market was never as bad as the media may have led you to believe. Our talented team has continued to achieve above asking price for many properties, not to mention long term agreements (sometimes 24 months!), and minimal rent reductions. The market has been challenging, but their negotiation and communication skills have come to the fore to deliver results far above the industry norm.
