LUXURY RESORT APARTMENTS	CAIRNS (FAR NORTH QLD)
Massive 1 bedroom and study $307,900 - $355 pw rent - Positive Cash Flow
Economic Profile
The Queensland economy continues to be one of the strongest in the nation, as it has a diverse economy with strong elements. It’s been stated that because of the strength and diversity of the Queensland economy it may not even go into recession, as will the rest of Australia. Cairns Cairns is located on Queensland’s far north coast and has long been regarded as the 'gateway' to the world heritage listed Great Barrier Reef and the Daintree Rainforest. The Cairns housing market is expected to see prices remain steady regardless of a decrease in the volume of sales due to ongoing stable demand fuelled by strong population growth. Massive Infrastructure Upgrades One of the strengths of the state economy is the high level of new infrastructure development. – not only in South East Queensland but in regional cities like Cairns. Stage one of the $200 million redevelopment of Cairns Domestic Airport has been completed. It included 14 new check-in counters, a new baggage-handling facility, automatic covered walkways and passenger security screening point, as well as road works and parking facilities. The second stage is under construction and will be completed in 2010, doubling the terminal’s size to 42,000m2. The $450 million upgrade of Cairns Base Hospital can proceed following the sale of the Cairns airport for $530 million. Queensland Premier Anna Bligh says the airport sale means the hospital upgrade is now assured of funding and will go ahead as planned. The controversial $500 million town centre at Smithfield, Cairns has been approved. It will include a bus transit hub, 24-hour medical centre, entertainment, dining, business and shopping precincts, apartments and green corridor linkages to the Cattana Wetlands.

Population Population in the Cairns Statistical District was estimated in August 2008 at 152,000 and at a future growth rate of 2.5% p.a. the population will reach 165,000 by 2012. Outside of South-East Queensland the Far North Queensland Statistical Division is predicted to experience the second largest population growth in Queensland over the next two decades. Tourism The tourism industry in Cairns will be boosted by new air links to Japan. Continental Micronesia will add an extra eight flights into Cairns from Guam by April, adding 9,000 seats to services between Cairns and Japan. The airline services eight major cities in Japan. Lifestyle Sea Change is one of the most influential of all factors impacting on real estate markets. Australians are (arguably) more drawn to live by the ocean than any other people on the planet. Sea Change is less in the news today but migration to the beach remains a big factor. Climate change introduces an element of risk, but in places like Cairns you have what is also called the oasis change. This simply means no shortage of water. In Cairns you can wash your car and water the garden to your hearts content.
