PULSE PROPERTY

Some examples of areas which have grown since we recommended them:

NSW

Westmead : 10.6%
Balmain: 9.8%

VIC

North Melbourne: 9.7%
Essendon: 10.6%
Bundoora: 16.6%
Barwon Heads: 9%

QLD

Banyo: 6.4%
Nundah: 10.9%

In 2009, Pulse recommended 418 Darling Street, and off-plan project in Balmain. Pulse sold 50% of the development. 

The one bedroom apartments were sold for $550,000 each and are now selling for $600,000, which equals 9% capital growth.  

The two bedroom apartments were sold for $750,000 each and are now selling for $820,000, a 9.3% growth.

In 2005, Darwin was the fastest growing economy in Australia and had the strongest property market.

Pulse Property obtained exclusive distribution of Pandanas, Darwin’s tallest building.

Pandanas is in the CBD and has spectacular water views. Pulse put over 200 investors into this development. During construction prices have increased a minimum of 12%-15%. This means, on average, our investors made $48,000 before construction was even completed. The minimum market rent is 6% so this project also has very strong cash flow.

Project Description
Pulse’s research indicated that this project in the West End represented excellent value for money. The project was off-the-plan and had an average price of $552,000.

Results
112 apartments were released in April 2007. Pulse did not have exclusive access, but still managed to sell almost 30% of the project. Pulse sold 16 apartments on the day the project was released and sold 30 in total.

"Pulse has a sales process that works. I now discuss all upcoming projects with them, as I have confidence in their ability to generate sales." Shane Foley, FKP, Residential Sales Manager, QLD

High quality, waterfront, residential property is rarely available so close to the Harbour Bridge. Pulse Property recommended this project when it was launched off-the-plan in 1999.

Fourteen clients invested in the project. A three bedroom penthouse was bought by a Pulse client for $1.7million. It settled in 2002, and five years later (in 2007) it had more than doubled in value and was resold for $3.5million.

In 1996, Pulse research indicated that Rockwall Apartments in Potts Point would make a strong investment. Cast your mind back to 1996 and you may recall Potts Point was not considered by many to be a desirable place for luxury living.

Our client trusted our research and purchased an apartment at that time with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a car park for $420,000.  In 2007, 11 years later, it was valued at $1.75 million. That client had made $1.33 million capital growth or 316%!

In March 2004 Pulse recommended the IKON project in Potts Point. It was a high quality project close to the CBD, with beautiful city and harbour views. Pulse’s research indicated it would experience strong growth. The research has proved correct.

Clients have enjoyed massive capital growth. One of Pulse’s clients purchased an apartment for $815,000 in 2004 and 3 years later in 2007 sold it for $1,360,000. This is a capital growth of $545,000 in 3 years!

In 1997, Pulse recommended The Wharf at Woolloomooloo. At the time it wasn't a popular recommendation. Cynics said the wharf was rat infested and in a high crime area. Pulse's research indicated the project had enormous growth potential.

In 1997, Pulse recommended an apartment off-the-plan with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms plus a study and car park for $820,000. The project was completed in March 2000. In May 2002 - only 26 months from settlement this apartment was sold for $1.33 million.

The owner made $510,000 in 26 months! In late 2007 it valued at over $2.5 million which is 205% growth on the original investment.

In 2006, Pulse Property identified Cairns as a growth market and recommended Haven on Severin to clients. With 2 bedroom apartments selling off-the-plan for $295,000 it was an ideal first investment. The project settled in September 2007. At settlement, real estate agents were valuing the apartments at $325,000, and all apartments were rented quickly for around $320-$330 per week and these clients are expected to enjoy strong capital growth.

In June 1997 Pulse recommended Abbotsford Cove, Sydney.

Three bedroom apartments were sold for $335,000. By 2002 they had grown $100,000 and were valued at $435,000. In 2007 they are valued at well over $700,000. Pulse clients have made over $365,000 in capital growth – that’s doubling their investment.
