Realty Talk: Two big questions to ask now
As we approach the end of year, this is the time to take stock, assess your position and decide if now is the time to pivot. One of the questions you should ask is - if it’s better to pay off your home loan or to invest any of your surplus funds, especially now with interest rates at historic low. In the second part of the show today Bushy will look at one other question you might want to explore to do with property management.

Get Invested: Part 2 - Michael Olivieri on local investment
Local knowledge is key to investment success, says Michael Olivieri. We introduced you to Michael in the previous episode of Get Invested, where he talked about securing his first investment property at the tender age of just 21 and building his portfolio to over $3.5 million by the age of 29. Now he owns a successful buyers agency on the Central Coast of NSW. In part 2 of the discussion, Michael gets in to the nitty gritty of property investing, revealing why intimate local area expertise and familiarity is critical to securing outperforming properties in outperforming areas. Local knowledge trumps desk top data, even in the age of AI. But quality data is still crucial - we need to balance local intimacy with independent data-driven evidence. Much unpacks all of this, and much more.

Realty Talk: We fact check the ‘experts’
It is the time of year when the predictions about what the market will do in the new year ahead start to dominate the news cycle. This year we will take a different approach and reflect on the predictions about 2023 that were made this time last year - by the banks - and fact check against what actually happened. Bushy does that with the help of Simon Pressley in this week's show. Then we introduce you to Eddie Tchigique - the man behind the Property Hub Collective - our Facebook community that is growing very strongly because so many people feel totally confused and overwhelmed by conflicting property information. The Collective offers unbiased and balanced advice based on experience. To close out today’s offering, Bushy has penned, and delivers in true Bushy style, his ‘Hypothetical’ where he challenges you to imagine an ideal Australia.

Get Invested: Part 1 - Michael Olivieri on investing in time
Understanding the power of time is one of the most important thing property investors must learn, says Michael Olivieri. Investment success is never about when, it’s always about where and what, because the best time to invest is always every time you can. And the earlier you start, and the more time you have up your sleeve, the easier it is. If you’ve got 15+ years up your sleeve, investing can be like a casual stroll in the park. But if your like the many who leave it until their late 40s and beyond and suddenly have their ‘Oh Shit Super Moment’ when they realise that their super is not going to be anywhere near enough to sustain their lifestyle when they stop work, investing in a short time frame can be like a white knuckle ride. So the earlier you start the easier it is and today’s guest Michael Olivieri is a living example of the success of this approach. From a young age Michael could see the benefit of property ownership and wanted to get started as quickly as he could. And as a result, he’s dedicated his career to learning as much as he could about property and he managed to secure his first investment property at the tender age of just 21. And by the time he was 29 he’d grown the value of his portfolio to over $3.5 million as he forged his professional career in commercial property before opening his own successful buyers agency on the Central Coast of NSW.

Get Invested: Part 2 - Michael Johnston on asset investment
Should you pay cash, finance or lease your vehicle or equipment? Michael Johnston is back again to continue the discussion. The short answer to this question: It depends. It depends on the specifics of your situation and circumstances, there isn’t a one size fits all approach to funding your assets. But one thing is for sure, FOMO is dangerous - and it is very easy to get sucked in to that car yard’s ‘once in a lifetime deal’ only to find yourself in a world of financial pain. This again is where the dual concepts of access versus ownership and opportunity cost that we touched on in last week’s episode come into play. And if it’s better in your particular situation to finance it, do you take out a personal loan, hire purchase, lease, novated lease, chattel mortgage or other alternative? The truth is, that in our time poor world, asset finance is becoming increasingly more complex, confusing and overwhelming, so to enable you to see the forest from the trees and better decide what’s right for you, experienced and expert asset finance broker Michael Johnston from National Direct Finance joins us for Part 2 of our great discussion.

Realty Talk: Beware of cheap insurance
Did you know there are more than thirteen million spare, unused bedrooms in Australia right now? This week we ask if that can help ease the housing crisis. Also this week Bushy firms up on the notion that property is a game of finance and then he introduces a concept that makes owning a home more affordable with a zero deposit home loan. But in a compelling piece from Bushy, he raises some big questions about insurance and if you are still covered.
