Unaffordable Twaddle
Hotspotting
The silliest people skulking around the edges of the property industry are the shallow attention-seekers who pump out nonsense reports claiming that no one can afford to buy property – not because it’s true or useful, but simply to drum up some free publicity for the business who is the source of the misinformation. The shallowness and pointlessness of these reports is demonstrated by the results being seen in property markets, which emphatically contradict the notion that most people can’t buy homes because they’re unaffordable to the vast majority. We are constantly inundated with...

Negative Gearing
Hotspotting
It’s remarkable how many politicians think that the solution to every problem that afflicts the housing market is to scrap negative gearing and make other changes to drum investors out of existence. Want to fix the rental shortage? Scrap negative gearing. Make housing more affordable? Scrap negative gearing. Facilitate the construction of a million new homes in Australia? Scrap negative gearing. The illogic of these attitudes – and the way they run counter to the truth – is quite remarkable. And, while it’s become quite common for politicians and others to recommend the end to negative...

State of the States
Hotspotting
One of the fundamentals of understanding real estate dynamics is remembering that real estate markets are local in nature – and they are influenced by the local economy in which they sit, far more than by national factors. Although economists and journalists often refer to “the Australian property market” and predict what will happen with “Australian property prices”, the reality is that there is no such entity as the Australian property market. Take a look at the price growth results among the eight capital cities for last year and you will note that some had boom growth, some had...

Melbourne Property Growth
Hotspotting
There are numerous reasons why we think Melbourne and Victoria is worthy of consideration by property investors, notwithstanding the concerted efforts by the state government and some local councils to force investors to sell up and get as far away from Victoria as possible. Melbourne and Victoria are underpinned by one of the nation’s strongest state economies, according to CommSec’s State of the States report, and there has been a notable uplift in sales activity since the start of 2024, pointing to elevated price growth as the year unfolds. But perhaps the most compelling evidence,...

First-Home Buyers vs. Investors in the Property Market
Hotspotting
Media loves the storyline that first-home buyers are competing with wealthy investors for properties – and losing because investors apparently have a huge advantage. Like so much that’s written and spoken in news media about the housing market, it’s a work of fiction. The polar opposite is, in fact, the truth. The biggest competition for first-home buyers in the market is not investors, but home buyers other than first-time buyers. The largest cohort in the market, at any point in time, is home buyers who already own a home, have equity in that home and are upgrading – or, in some...

Location Reports: Your Real Estate Game-Changer!
Hotspotting
If you want to sell real estate, very often the greatest selling point is the location. If the location has … a strong diverse economy creating jobs, a steadily growing population with strong increases projected well into the future, good existing amenities and a significant spend on new infrastructure … then it has many of the credentials for capital growth. The problem for many real estate professionals - in taking advantage of growth factors like that in their location- is accessing all the key information, analysing it and then presenting it in a way that’s easily...

Webinar Replay - Why Melbourne Makes More Sense Than Perth
Hotspotting
Want to get into a key market BEFORE prices start to take off? Feel that you may have missed the boat with media favourite Perth? In many ways, the answers to these questions are the essence of smart investing. Most property investors are herd animals, diving into markets when they read that prices have risen 15% or 20% in the past year – or 50% in the past three years. Buying in such a market means you are likely buying at – or after – the peak of the market. The smart money would have been there 2-3 years ago – and is now focused on places that are early in the growth cycle....
