As residential or commercial property worths expand, some discover themselves evaluated of the marketplace. However, the Pivot Property Buyers owner informed Yahoo Finance that some possible purchasers aren’t prepared to downgrade from the rental homes they presently reside in.
“Anecdotally in our agency, we hear it all the time from people who are like, ‘Well, I’d love to buy the thing that I rent’, but the thing that they’re renting might be double what their budget is for the purchase,” he stated.
“And then people will get stuck… they’ll go and see a bunch of options, and it always comes back to what they’re renting, and they’re like, ‘Oh, well it’s worse than what I’m renting at the moment’.”
Single stated if you’re a first-home purchaser in a resources city after that you may not have the ability to easily purchase the area that you’re currently in.
“There’s like such a huge gap… people are renting something that might be $2 million to buy, but it’s $1,000 a week to rent,” he informed Yahoo Finance.
“So if they want to keep their costs the same, putting how much the person has for a deposit aside for a minute, the max that they would be able to borrow on the current interest rates is about $800,000, which would let them buy something for about a million dollars.

“So undoubtedly, the distinction in between a $2 million residential or commercial property and a $1 million residential or commercial property is rather raw in many locations, and it would certainly also be the distinction in between a home or a home.”
He added that if you wanted to buy that $2 million property that you’re renting, it would work out to be $1,900 per week in mortgage repayments.
The property buyer said this is one of the biggest issues that stands in the way of people choosing to buy because they usually have to make one of three decisions:
-
Buy something expensive and deal with the high mortgage repayments
-
Get the same type of property but in a cheaper area
-
Stay in the very same location however downgrade the dimension or features of the residential or commercial property
