Heya property lovers, It’s Leonie here, and well, I officially feel OLD! Writing this blog today has seen me reminiscing about property cycles and how this market feels all too familiar. Not to give away my age, but I have been an investor in Australian real estate for more than three cycles. I have witnessed many ebbs and flows in the real estate market, and I have learned that rising [...]

There has been a lot of hype and talk over the movie recently titled “The Big Short” which is based around a few guys “shorting” mortgage-backed securities based in the USA. The movie has caused quite a stir with a lot of viewers wondering whether the same thing could happen here in Australia. So I thought I would cover off why this will NOT happen here in Australia and here [...]

Heya property lovers, it's Leonie here, and as I mention in the title, I’m here to chat with you today about the significant implications Australia’s surging population growth is going to have on the property market. I’m afraid to say that today’s blog will certainly not be all good news… In fact, Australia’s surging population will surely bring severe implications for many Australians and financial rewards for many others.  The good news is, [...]

Hold onto your hats because the roller coaster ride, we call the property market has just turned up a gear! This time we’re on our way up! If you’ve read many of our blogs about property cycles, you’ll know that the property market is anything but a roller coaster; think of it as more of an escalator with a few plateaus and the very rare step backward, but nonetheless, I’m excited to [...]

One of my favourite book recommendations is the The Richest Man in Babylon, a classic, timeless book. Written in 1926, it has been reprinted many times since then. It is still as relevant today as it was when it was first published, believe it or not.  George S. Clason, the author of this book, is a man who was born into poverty but rose to become one of the richest men in [...]

An alternative option to purchasing a property as a home, rentvesting has become a popular option for those wanting to purchase property. At first, it might not seem to make sense - why pay off a mortgage and rent at the same time? Wouldn’t it just be easier to buy your home? As someone who has used the rentvesting strategy for several property purchases, I’m a big fan. Let me [...]

Well, I certainly didn’t mince my words in the title, but for good reason. It’s the $9.5 billion question on property owners’ lips around Australia… What will happen to property prices in 2023 and beyond? If you’re not in the market after 2023, you may never be. It’s no secret that Australia’s in the midst of a raging debate on housing affordability and how the average family can afford to [...]
