Property Hub - Investment Insights & Inspiration

Many Australians are following the broken 'Australian dream' model, says Bushy Martin.  That 'dream' - get a good job, pay off your mortgage, put money into your super, and then retire comfortably - is leaving many Aussies unable to afford their lifestyle after stopping work. Bushy talked about this big issue on the Finance And Property Survival Guide podcast with Damian Hoar, which we’re sharing with you today. This is a really important interview, because shared a lot of advice that he wished he got when he was young. This episode is full of insights on investing, finance, budgeting, superannuation and more … and while there is a focus on young people, these lessons learned can be applied at any age. Tune in.

During the week we were interested to hear concern expressed about the possibility of an El Nino event occurring.  We were not so surprised at it being raised, but more about the person raising it.   Ray Ellis - CEO for First National Group joins us in today’s show to tell us why a weather event should concern property owners.   Victoria has been named as the worst state in Australia for renters.  That is according to research by the Property Investors Council of Australia and the Property Investment Professionals of Australia.  PIPA’s chairperson joins Bushy to set out the reasons.   Over the last decade, Drew Evans has amassed a property portfolio worth over $25M.  Bushy asks Drew about some of the obstacles he has had to overcome to build to that level.  Get your pens out for that one!  NEW – Join the Property Hub community on Substack!

Airbnb certainly changed the short term accommodation market and arguably caused a tectonic upheaval in the availability of rentals for long termers. Currently there are over 100,000 Airbnb properties listed in Australia. A more serious problem than supply has surfaced. Hear Bushy discuss it with Juls Rolnik. There is a lot to be said for planning your exit.  That especially applies to investment property and tax.  The expert we talk to today suggests planning before you even buy.   There is one way to never make a mistake - don’t do anything!  That really isn’t the answer and in fact sometimes the best way to learn is by making mistakes.  Fear of failure is one of the major reasons to sit on your hands but today we hope we can help you overcome that fear and move forward.  Arjun Paliwell joins Bushy to do just that.  NEW – Join the Property Hub community on Substack!

Since May 2022, the RBA cash rate has risen 12 times to the highest level in 11 years.  Many of the messages we receive are from mum and dad investors asking how to securely navigate portfolio growth opportunities in such a volatile and high-interest rate environment.  Today we lift the lid on a whitepaper setting out the 5 rules for safely investing during periods of higher interest rates  In the same way, every property is different, the agents employed to marketing and sell your property are not the same either.   In many cases, sellers find out after they have given the agent the listing that the actions, activities, and results do not live up to promises. We will tell you how to avoid making that mistake. NEW – Join the Property Hub community on Substack!

The problem with politicians making decisions is most times they are short term thinkers - normally their own term.  There are no quick fixes to rental shortages and housing affordability.  If politicians can’t do it, we ask the question about who is best to frame thinking around long term solutions.  We try to come up with some suggestions you will never hear from pollies and we attempt to apply some sound reasoning behind future direction!
