<p class="p1">Landlords and tenants are set to both benefit financially with Sunyield, Stoddart Group's new solar technology.</p>
<p class="p2">A new batch of homes in Queensland will see the solar panels save as much as $275 a year on electricity.</p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">The SunYield package includes a 6.5 KW solar power system, combined with a Stoddart Smart Board that replaces the standard meter box on a new home. <span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">SunYield is also battery ready, allowing landlords to add batteries as they become cheaper and increase the proportion of solar-generated power sold to the tenant.</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">Choices Homes director Troy Knight said the innovative technology is good for his customers, their tenants and the environment.</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">“We're always looking for ways to offer our customers a better investment, which made the decision to put SunYield on every home a simple one," he said.</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">“For our customers, it means an increased rental return and a home that's easier to rent.</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">"For our company, it means being one of the first to offer an innovative product that is good for our customers, their tenants and the environment.  </span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">The Australian-first technology was designed locally and is being launched in Queensland with leading investment builders Choice Homes, Creation Homes, Brighton Homes and MetInvest, with each including SunYield as standard on their new homes. </span></p>
<p class="p2">Stoddart Group's general manager for energy systems Adam Taylor says solar energy usage was once a difficult conversation with landlord and tenant before the new technology.</p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">“It was too difficult to manage," he said.</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">“With SunYield, if the tenant chooses to use the solar panels, all solar and grid power is measured automatically via a smart switchboard and the tenant receives a single monthly power bill for all electricity consumed from both the solar and the grid.</span></p>
<p class="p2">“Renters have long missed out on the benefits of solar power simply because it was too hard or complicated for landlords to justify the cost.</p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">“SunYield changes this by ensuring that solar on a new rental property is a good deal for the landlord, as well as the tenant. <span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">The process is completely automated, with the landlord then receiving a payment for all solar generated, whether it was used by the tenant or sent to the grid.</span></p>
<p class="p3"><span class="s1">“With this technology, the landlord owns the solar system and can either sell the power to their tenant at a discount to the market rate or export it to the grid if the tenant chooses not to buy it.”</span></p>

<p>Welcome to a brand new year and the fifth edition of Urban Appeal magazine – Choice Homes’ guide to the many residential property investment opportunities in Queensland.</p>
<div class="page" title="Page 6">
<div class="layoutArea">
<div class="column">
<p><span>I’m buoyed by the Queensland economy’s ongoing expansion thanks to continued population growth and an increase in tourism. </span></p>
<p><span>We are expected to hit 6.7 million people by 2036 and the South East will be at the forefront of this massive increase, with an extra 2 million people set to live in the region. </span></p>
<p><span>Over the past 26 years, Choice Homes has built premier residential housing throughout the state and we are excited about what the future holds. </span></p>
<p><span>Probably the biggest shift for 2019 will be the impact of cooling property houses in the southern states. For South East Queensland this spells opportunity as more people look to the Sunshine State to either relocate or invest. </span></p>
<p><span>Either way it will see a continued upswing in our property market, and the signs are already showing. For example Queensland continues to come out on t</span>op with nearly 70 suburbs recording double-digit growth over the past 12 months to June, according to a recent REIQ report. </p>
<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/JfKHML2gMMg" frameborder="0" width="390" height="315"></iframe>
</div>
<div class="column">
<p><span>The property price boom has continued on the Gold Coast as well, with four suburbs seeing double digit growth, showing select locations are performing exceptionally well. </span></p>
<p><span>Choice Homes has strategically positioned itself in a number of these growth areas to provide a range of quality residential investment opportunities. </span></p>
<p>With the wave of exciting new development in the pipeline, and the green light being given on several major infrastructure upgrades in the area, investing in South East Queensland continues to be a smart strategy.</p>
<p>We are also seeing the green shoots of growth in key towns in Central Queensland. Several mining projects have either commenced or restarted, quietly increasing the value of property in strategically placed areas such as Mackay.</p>
<p>From a company perspective, our joint initiative with SunYield by Stoddart</p>
<p>Group continues to add extra value for our investors. The program adds an additional $25 a week to investor's rental income through a solar scheme that puts a 6.5kW PV system on new houses built by Choice Homes.</p>
<p>This is truly a game- changer for the housing investment market with benefits for investors, tenants and the environment.</p>
<p>Choice Homes is also passionate about giving back to the community and supports a number of business, sporting and community-based organisations and initiatives, and we will continue to do so throughout the year.</p>
<p>Choice Homes’ reputation has been built over a quarter-century of hard work and industry smarts, and we will continue to provide quality homes in growth locations for many years to come.</p>
<p>Troy Knight is the director of Choice Homes.</p>

<p>Multi-award winning building company Choice Homes is a market leader specialising in turnkey housing design and construction.</p>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div>
<p>Choice Homes is active in select South East Queensland hotspots such as the Gold Coast, Logan, Brisbane, Ipswich and Beaudesert, as well as the major resource industry hub of Mackay.</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="layoutArea">
<div>
<p>The company’s well-planned growth has continued through 2018 and into 2019, hallmarked by consistent job starts, outstanding sales results and significant award recognition.</p>
<p>In 2018 alone, Choice Homes has sold out stages at The Highlands and Camelot in Coomera, commenced 350 builds in South East Queensland and Mackay, and brought to market many new stages in key Choice Homes estates.</p>
<p>Over the years, Choice Homes has won many awards and in 2018 added to the trophy cabinet by winning the Apartment Complex of the Year in the HIA Gold Coast and Northern Rivers</p>
</div>
<div class="column">
<p>Housing Awards. They were also awarded 19th place in the Gold Coast Top Companies 2018.</p>
<p>The company also launched new display homes at Camelot in Coomera and at Royal Sands in Mackay, and has more display homes planned across its properties. Choice Homes’ first apartment project—101 Pohlman Street, Southport—has since sold out, and planning is well underway for a brand new apartment development, with release scheduled for 2020.</p>
<p>Behind this outstanding market success is a 26-year-old family-owned company that has executed strategic expansion into several complementary real estate and development businesses.</p>
<div title="Page 13">
<div>
<div>
<div>
<p>Each addition to the Choice group of companies has become a success story in its own right, while simultaneously bolstering client service and satisfaction.</p>
<p>MPM Property Sales and Management, for example, a standalone real estate and property management company, has an office at Parkwood on the Gold Coast, one in Ipswich and a third office which has recently opened at the booming suburb of Pimpama, each staffed by professional sales and property management teams.</p>
<p>As some parts of Australia’s property market have begun to cool down, South East Queensland and the highly sought-after growth corridor between the Gold Coast and Brisbane are selling at a strong and reliable rate. This is where you will find Choice Homes’ premier land developments, next to the billions of dollars’ worth of key infrastructure and employment hubs.</p>
<p>2019 will see Choice Homes continue to create industry-leading homes to satisfy the strong demand across Queensland’s key growth markets.</p>
<p>Following 26 years’ proven performance as one of Queensland’s premier builders, Choice Homes has secured an enviable land supply from key residential developers in Queensland and northern NSW.</p>
<p>Choice Homes continues to be a strong contributor to the community. It sponsors and supports a number of business, sporting and community-based initiatives each and every year and will continue to do so into the future.</p>
