New Surveys Reveal Australia?s Mining Boom Creates Population Shift And New Opportunities For Property Investors

New Surveys Reveal Australia’s Mining Boom Creates Population Shift And New Opportunities For Property Investors













Mining, Oil and Gas Boom In Australia


(PRWEB) November 24, 2011

There is little doubt, says property investment innovator, Rick Otton, that the Australian state of Western Australia is booming — while the rest of the world struggles.

In its report ‘Mining in Australia 2011 to 2026’, economic forecaster BIS Shrapnel predicts that annual mining investment in Australia will surpass $ A80 billion by 2015, from projects in the oil and gas, iron ore, coal and copper sectors. Following a pause in investment in 2009/10 — the height of the global financial crisis — it rebounded by 11% in 2010/11 and is forecasted to increase a further 66% by 2015/16.

“Such growth in our mining sector has lifted work opportunities across the board for Australians willing to relocate” explains Mr Otton. “And the associated demand for housing in many areas has become unprecedented.”

“The more remote mining and oil/gas sites recruit staff on a fly in/fly out (FIFO) basis, and in the case of the West Australian operations, the home base is identified as Perth” continued Otton. “This has put pressure on both the purchase and rental markets in Perth, but, at the same time, has created attractive opportunities in Australian property investment.

According to property monitor, realestate.com.au, there is a great imbalance in property prices in the vast state of Western Australia, with homes in remote areas like Karratha and Port Hedland fetching way in excess of similar dwellings in major capital cities. In the capital, Perth, the median house price in early 2011 was $ 480,000, but in Karratha and Port Hedland the median prices for the same period were $ 795,000 and $ 750,000 respectively.

“There is little doubt that homes in this price range are way out of reach of first home buyers or most singles – if they go down the traditional mortgage path. However, the opportunities for creative property investors are immense in markets such as these” says Mr Otton. “The rent to buy strategies that I teach are made for just these scenarios.”

For over 30 years Rick Ottin has been regarded as an innovator in the property investment industry, in Australia, the US and the UK in particular. He has taught thousands of people, particularly the self-employed and those without a hefty deposit, how to invest in property without the need to approach traditional lenders.

Mr Otton offers many free resources, including ebooks, videos and webinar recordings that teach the rent to buy strategies that allow everyday people to enter dynamic property investment markets like Western Australia.

Stock Market Volatility Has Accredited Investors Seeking Alternative Investment Strategies

Stock Market Volatility Has Accredited Investors Seeking Alternative Investment Strategies











Squamish, BC (PRWEB) August 17, 2011

InvestmentOptions.Net predicts the number of investors who are struggling to protect and create wealth because of the extreme volatility in the stock market and real estate market are will explore alternative investments in oil and gas in growing numbers. This prediction is based on recent increases in inquiries to InvestmentOptions.Net for information about alternative investment opportunities available. The reasons investors are considering alternative investment strategies in oil and gas are considerable; there are a variety of advantages for the qualified investor interested in protecting and creating wealth.

According to CNNMoney,(April 10-2010 Deflation? Inflation? Protect against both), not only do oil and gas and other commodities investments offer the ability for investors to hedge against inflation, but the government’s desire to reduce the country’s reliance on foreign oil and gas supplies has provided sophisticated, highly qualified investors with a number of attractive incentives to promote domestic oil and gas investment. Because of recent volatility in both stocks and real estate investing, oil and gas investment is an alternative many accredited investors are investigating with the help of InvestmentOptions.Net.

Those who invest in oil and gas domestically not only contribute directly to the stabilization of the U.S. economy by stimulating domestic oil and gas production but also may be able to take advantage of significant income deductions and other tax benefits that make the investment alternatives even more attractive.

The cost and risk involved with well development can be significant, but many of the costs, both tangible and intangible, can be deducted or depreciated over time. Because oil and gas investments can be considered active income, these deductions can be used to offset income from a number of sources, including salaries and other capital gains. In addition, up to 15% of the earnings from a domestic well can be tax-free depending on the structure of the investment (Tax Code Section 613A).

InvestmentOptions.Net expects the number of accredited investors considering the alternative investment strategies available with oil and gas to continue to increase over the next several quarters. Alfred Marshall said, “Capital is that part of wealth which is devoted to obtaining further wealth.” No other investment alternative provides such potential for transforming capital into additional wealth than oil and gas investing.
