Property Hub - Investment Insights & Inspiration

Last year was a truly remarkable year in property, so what lessons did we learn from it that will guide us in the year ahead? To discuss the year that was and then the year that will be, Realty Talk regular Simon Pressley from Propertyology joins us for part one of a 2 part special feature. Most investors tend to focus on how much money they’re likely to make without properly considering the risks and how to protect their investments, so to balance the books, Darren Kingdon from Kingdon Financial Services does a deep dive on property risk management. In the cut and thrust world of property management, the old days of tenants responding to letting ads in the paper have long gone as social media and tech continue to transform the industry. To discuss this tech transformation and close out the show, we’re joined by Adam Hinds from Sorted Services who works closely with property managers and are Australia’s first all-in-one home services marketplace.

What in the world is going on in global and local investment markets? Top analyst Pete Wargent provides his outlook. What is likely to happen in the world this year? What does this mean for global and local equities and property investment markets? How does this affect you as an investor? What do you do, and what don’t you do this year? On the surface these appear like relatively simple questions but the answers are never easy and are increasingly difficult to predict given the complex and growing myriad of interdependent dynamics that are constantly changing at break neck speed, given our global connectedness and ‘always on’ world that we currently live in. Now despite media commentary trying to keep us scared, nervous and anxious, I believe there's a growing air of optimism about 2022 as we climb out of the pandemic. That said, many challenges remain globally. So where does this leave us as investors? We need to turn off the noise of mainstream media and turn to wise investment specialists who have a long and proven track record of investment success. And that’s exactly what I’ve been helping you with during the recent Summer Series which culminates and concludes in today’s chat with Get Invested favourite and regular Pete Wargent, whose credentials across both property and equities in Australia and overseas are second to none. Pete is one of Australia’s brightest financial minds, a six-time published finance author and leading investment analyst on the back of his work as an active investor in equities and property, a buyer’s agent, strategist and mentor, where he uses his tried and tested strategies to assist you in achieving your financial goals across the broad spectrum of property and equities. His national Buyers Agent business Buyers Buyers is harnessing the knowledge of Australia's leading buyer's agents at a price every Aussie homebuyer can afford in order to secure quality properties, and his partnership with Steve Moriarty is helping equities investors with their Next Level Wealth venture. So let’s now turn our attention back to a broader outlook on the year ahead in equities and property investment markets to help you make better investment decisions with Pete Wargent.

Buying a home during the boom continues to be challenging, particularly if your purchase relies on the sale of your current house. No one is interested in the subject to sale conditions. To get around this, emerging lender Techlend is disrupting the bridging loan space with a new solution that can be preapproved in an hour! So to continue our discussion on this lending innovation in the second part of our 2 part feature, the CEO of Techlend Aaron Bassin completes the picture. A lot of property industry commentators slam the idea of investing in new build homes in new fringe suburbs.    Is this criticism well-founded or perhaps misguided?  We discuss that with the CEO of The Property Mentors, Luke Harris. And with so much scare-mongering hitting the news about rising interest rates recently, the show closes with Bushy balancing the books by exploring if and when rates will rise and what it means to you.
