First-home buyers win Point Cook auction for $880k

A couple who spent 15 years renting have finally claimed a home of their own, and they did it by winning Wyndham's top recorded auction of the weekend. The four-bedroom home at 14 Kellerman Drive sold under the hammer for $880,000, the highest result recorded across the region's weekend auctions, following a strong campaign by Harcourts Point Cook agents Muhammad and Eyad Khudruj. Muhammad Khudruj said the property attracted immediate interest thanks to its premium features and 'all the bells and whistles' that made it stand out from the pack. Why buyers are back in big numbers Glenroy couple's $60k surprise payday 'We had two active bidders on the day and placed a vendor bid to get things started, but once it got going, momentum built quickly,' Mr Khudruj said. 'The home had reaccess stone benchtops, soaring high ceilings, zoned refrigerated cooling, and fully landscaped front and backyards. It was move in ready and incredibly appealing.' Mr Kudruj said the auction's successful buyers were first-home buyers who had been renting for more than a decade and acted fast to secure the deal. 'They were absolutely thrilled … they felt confident and trusted us throughout the process,' Mr Khudruj said. 'The wining bidders even booked a building inspection the day before the auction and made their decision within hours. It was a big moment for them.' Set on a 631sq m allotment in the sought-after Innisfail Estate, the home offered a generous family-sized floorplan with multiple living zones, a newly renovated kitchen, spacious backyard and alfresco deck. The Harcourts Point Cook agent said the sale also capped off a standout quarter for the agency, with renewed buyer competition and rising clearance rates defying the winter chill. 'This is probably my final sale for FY25, and we're heading into the new financial year with real momentum,' Mr Khudruj said. 'Despite what some have said about a downturn, every auction we've taken to market recently has sold. 'We're seeing some of the strongest winter numbers since Covid.' Mr Kudruj added that more Sydney and Queensland investors were circling Wyndham in particular and warned local buyers holding out for more rate cuts that it could cost them. 'Waiting could mean paying $30,000 to $50,000 more for the same home in six months,' he said. 'The market's already shifted since the last two cuts.' As for the sellers, who had previously been listed with three other agents without success, the turnaround came as welcome relief. 'We ran a four-week campaign and sold it under the hammer. They were over the moon,' Mr Khudruj said. Other notable results in Wyndham last weekend included $816,000 for a four-bedroom home at 5 Broadlands Crt, Hoppers Crossing, and $655,000 for a similar-sized property at 4 Chloris Crt, Tarneit.

Tasmanian farmers get freight relief for Bass Strait

Tasmanian farmers who export produce to the mainland and across the world will get welcome relief from the cost of freight today with increased support from the Tasmanian Freight Equalisation Scheme. From today farmers and exporters will get a 25 per cent increase in financial assistance from the Albanese Government , after a promise in the lead up to the latest Federal election. The increase will mean around $875 to $1070 dollars per 20 foot container for the next 2 years, and a thorough review of the scheme will be carried out later this year. Wool broker Alistair Calvert from Wool Solutions says Tasmanian wool growers will benefit from the change

Cost of living kills the pub shout

The humble pub shout is tipped to be a thing of the past as younger Australians shy away from it thanks to the help of a simple technology. Australians are using QR codes as a way of individually ordering drinks at the table, ending the classic pub shout, research released by payments platform Tyro shows. The QR code that came in post Covid has changed the way people buy drinks. Picture: NewsWire / Jeremy Piper Tyro chief executive Jon Davey said the pub shout may become a thing of the past, as younger Aussies are quick to adapt to new ways of payment. 'Both (millennials and Gen Z) are more accustomed with modern ways of paying – these consumers are now used to paying individually at the table while they socialise rather than relying on one person to order for the whole group at a crowded bar,' he said. According to the findings, millennials are the least likely to buy a friend a drink, with 42 per cent opting against that tradition, followed by Gen Z and Gen X. Baby boomers are the most likely to shout a friend, but still one in three use QR codes as a way to avoid buying drinks. The report also highlights cost-of-living pressures are clearly having an impact on Australians' spending patterns, with nearly one in two Aussies changing their alcohol consumption due to costs, while one in 10 have quit the drink altogether. Beyond drinking, more than half are now comparing prices, delaying non-essential purchases or hunting for discounts. Not only are millennials the least likely to buy a drink for their friends, they are also the most annoyed at having to pay a holiday surcharge. Australians say QR codes are making it easier to avoid a shout. Picture: NewsWire / Christian Gilles, Gen Z and baby boomers represent more than 50 per cent of those willing to pay holiday surcharges to keep their local open, but only 19 per cent of millennials are happy to pay extra. The Agrestic Grocer and Cafe owner Beau Baddock said these charges were essential for business. 'Holiday surcharging isn't about making a profit, it's about ensuring I can pay my hardworking staff their wages … I also want to provide visitors and locals with somewhere to go. If we don't on-charge our extra wage costs, we'd have to close,' Mr Baddock said.
