• First-time homebuyers get a financial boost
• The cost of building a home has increased by 7.3 per cent.
• How to Prepare for Interest Rate Increases
Home loan activity reached a new high in December, according to the latest figures from the Australian Bureau of Statistics, indicating that the housing market is still strong.
In December, Australians committed to $32.8 billion in mortgages, up 4.4 per cent from the previous month and 26.5 per cent from the previous year. The following was the breakdown:
• $22.5 billion in owner-occupied loans (up 5.3 per cent monthly, 12.4 per cent annually)
• $10.3 billion in investor loans (up 2.4 per cent monthly, 73.9 per cent annually)
The fact that the market has been expanding for the past year is one of the reasons why so many Australians are entering it.
Another point to consider is that, despite anticipation that interest rates may rise later this year, rates are currently at ultra-low levels and would remain so even if rates were to rise.
The First Home Super Saver Scheme savings threshold has been doubled from $30,000 to $50,000, allowing first-time buyers to save their deposit even faster.
The scheme allows first-home purchasers to put up to $15,000 per year in pre-tax income into a designated account within their superannuation fund, with a total limit of $50,000.
For starters, the money people put into the programme is taxed at 15% rather than the standard income tax rate of 19% for those earning up to $45,000 and 32.5 per cent for those earning up to $120,000.
Second, when first-time home purchasers withdraw their funds, they are allowed to withdraw their original deposit plus approximately 4.7 per cent interest, which is a higher rate of interest than they would earn in a traditional savings account. Withdrawals are normally taxed at 30% less the marginal tax rate.
Residential construction costs have risen at the quickest yearly rate since 2005, owing to supply chain bottlenecks that have impacted various industries.
According to CoreLogic’s Cordell Construction Cost Index, home construction costs increased by 7.3 per cent in the calendar year 2021. (CCCI).
However, with prices growing 3.8 per cent in the September quarter but only 1.1 per cent in the December quarter, the rate of growth may be slowing.
Part of the reason for the increase is that builders are having difficulty obtaining materials such as wood and metal.
At least some of these extra costs are likely to be passed on to homebuyers by property developers and builders.
I have known Charles Vincent Kauwasha for many long years now since we first met in Accident and Emergency department of Hutt Hospital Lower Hutt New Zealand, where he was an emergency nurse. I had a problem with my heart and very quickly learnt to trust him with my life! we got talking about our businesses and exchanged contact details. Charles has been a loyal friend and business contact here and on whatsapp etc ever since that time, even after he moved from New Zealand to Australia. Charles is a very honest, loyal and trustworthy person, both in business and as a friend. I highly recommend Charles as a safe person to know and do business with.

Thanks to you Charles, we can be there when the worst happens to give people the emergency medical care they need – and rapid transport to hospital. Your support means that CareFlight can fly at a few minutes’ notice, to some of the most inhospitable places in this country. It means patients like Simon can be reached quickly with hospital-level emergency care at the scene – and in cases like Simon’s every minute counts.
On behalf of everyone at CareFlight, thank you for your generosity – and have a wonderful holiday season. Thank you so much
Dear CVK, Awesome, a huge thank you for your prompt response!!! I feel blessed to know you.I love your inspiring video and I have learnt a lot from your nicely arranged presentation. I can’t remember the question I paused to you myself but it feels like whatever it was I asked you has been effectively dealt with in your powerful video. By the way, I strongly feel you can make a good mentor of mine considering the massive education and experience you have acquired through the years. Let me know if you can do this for me because I firmly believe there is a purpose why God brings certain people into our lives which is to help us achieve our fullest potential and arrive at our God-given destiny. Remain blessed forevermore in Jesus mighty name, Amena!!! By the way, many thanks for your quick encouraging feedback and for the free book offer on how to attract people to my biz.Will study the book ASAP and I should be able to implement what I will learn and will see where that will take me. I am looking forward to a rewarding interaction between the two of us. Once again, thank you for your non-wavering support and encouragement you have rendered to me over the years. I thought you had given up on me and forgotten about me since I appeared to be wasting your time. I am still interested in salvaging my life and do something new and big because I am tired and sick of living a mediocre kind of life. Please help me if you can by God’s grace. Have a blessed day my Brotherman
Charles, right now, a lot of people in this country are saying, “Thank you.”Thank you for being there when they needed help most. Thank you for taking charge when their world was turning upside down. Thank you for giving them confidence, when they were afraid and needed life-saving help. As a CareFlight Support Crew Member, you are making such a difference for so many people. Your regular donations help save lives and keep families together. Patients like Thomas, who told us, “You made it possible for me to survive.”And Agnes, who said, “I’m very grateful a service like CareFlight exists.”Below are some more messages of thanks: Thanks from the patients you help. As we head into another year, we know there will be even more people who will call on our services. So, I’d like to add my heartfelt thanks to those of our patients, for your steadfast support. Together we are ensuring CareFlight is always there for people when they call for our help. Whether it’s intubating a patient at the scene of an accident, or ensuring a newborn is safe on a flight from a remote area to a major hospital for treatment, our patients cannot speak highly enough of the care they receive. Charles, that care is part of a chain that starts with people like you. These expressions of gratitude, from all over the country and from all walks of life, show you how much your support is valued – and how much it is needed, more than ever. We can’t do what we do without you.
Dear Charles
If this year has taught us anything so far, it’s that none of us ever truly know what is around the corner.
That’s why I can’t thank you enough for your support that ensures we can continue to provide life-saving aeromedical care to Australians most in need.
Our CareFlight crews are in a unique position to understand what Australians have been going through. Every day, we care for people who have found their world shaken by a sudden accident or illness – coping with circumstances almost none expected to face when they woke up that morning.
People like Simon Bowman don’t like to rely on others for help. But one day, as he lay trapped inside his car after a terrible road accident, with suspected injuries to his spine and shoulder and a possible head trauma, Simon needed life-saving help desperately. CareFlight was there in a matter of minutes.
CareFlight’s rapid response helicopter service is so vital in situations like this. Our crew can be airborne in minutes and by the side of our patient, delivering hospital-level emergency care as fast as possible.
Simon doesn’t remember much about his accident, but he does recall the voices of the CareFlight crew as they worked urgently to treat his injuries. Simon told us: “I knew there was someone looking after me and that I was in good hands.”
Our mission is to deliver people the very best care. We’ve spearheaded international aeromedical innovations such as our stretcher bridge system and become the first civilian service to carry blood plasma to the scene of an accident.
The care, the state-of-the-art equipment, those voices which reassure patients that they are in the hands of skilled professionals they can trust – it’s all thanks to people like you.
Simon has recovered and recently visited our base to meet some of the crew. He has never forgotten the help he received from CareFlight, so meeting them again was an emotional experience.
Seeing the helicopter that transported him to hospital, he was amazed at its size. He confessed he’d never been that keen on helicopters, “but I was very keen that one was there that day.”
Your support for CareFlight is helping to save so many lives, like Simon’s.
Thank you so much.

The book Launch speech On 25 November, my co-authors and I had to present our speeches. One week later, this is what people had to say… Mwebantu…who has @Charles Kaluwasha speech at the book launch 😄 It was POWERFUL-Cranston I tell you, that was captivating I don’t think people remembered to press record. For the book am reading ba @Charles Kaluwasha story and while reading am imagining it being told just like the speech 😀. -Cranston I hope someone captured it; maybe check the zoom recording as well. He was on fire 🔥 🔥🔥🔥🔥 It was fun to listen to. –Cranston Personally, I can confess…after technical difficulties and having to personally meet and speak to the VIPs I invited…it was VERY refreshing to sit in the audience and just take in what you had to say. It was so good 😄-Cranston Yeah, he was on fire…I thought he was going to make a book launch altar call 😄. There was so much energy, and time was not our best ally; otherwise, we were going to spend a night there.- Paster Kennedy Phiri The story is also good, so authentic and inspiring. If I was not yet abroad, that is the story I would like to read. The speech made me want to read it first, despite being the last reading 📖.-Theresa D’Amaden
