 “Marco’s knowledge of his business was evident in his dealings with us, as were his high ethical standards in every aspect of our transactions. In the real estate industry, characters with Marco’s integrity are thin on the ground and it was a refreshing experience to deal with him.”

If you want to make a profit quickly and move on to something else, you may prefer to sell as soon as the development has been completed. If the new property will contribute better to your financial aims by providing a solid rental return for years to come, plus provide equity to invest in other projects, you may wish to hold on to it. Some clients start off thinking they want to take one course of action and change their mind during the development. That is what Sintra is there for. We’ll help with changes in strategies and always work with you to achieve the best outcome.]]><![CDATA[RBA cuts rates to record low]]>Wed, 08 May 2013 11:03:31 GMThttp://www.sintradevelopments.com.au/1/post/2013/05/rba-cuts-rates-to-record-low.htmlThe Reserve Bank has slashed interest rates by 25 basis points to a historic low of 2.75 per cent, the first reduction this year. The decision followed a spate of soft economic data that increased calls by industry groups and other observers for a lower cash rate.

At Sintra, we don’t worry about others’ predictions. If you do your research, a conservative and realistic feasibility and take a rational approach (rather than ‘hoping’ for growth or being emotionally attached to property), fluctuations in the market shouldn’t have a huge impact on your development. While you should never rely on it, growth in the market can make a good development even better. Sintra has noticed a lot more buyer interest in recent months, and these articles (in addition to the earlier ones this month) seem to reflect that:

Typically a new construction, splitter or slider will take around 12-24 months, from finding a site through to selling the developed offering at the end. A renovation would usually take less time. Townhouse sites depend if they are purchased with an existing DA or not. If they already have a DA, it will be about 12 months and without a DA around 18-24 months.]]>
