The Finance Game Has Changed – How Smart Investors Are Structuring Their Loans Today | Dorian Traill
Property Investment & Wealth Creation Australia | The Michael Yardney Podcast
Most property investors think finance is just about getting a loan approved. But in today’s environment, that thinking can quietly cost you hundreds of thousands of dollars… or worse, stop you from growing your portfolio altogether. Because the rules have changed.

The Property Strategy Most Investors Ignore (Financial Buffers Explained) | Brett Warren
Property Investment & Wealth Creation Australia | The Michael Yardney Podcast
Most property investors think success comes down to buying the right property at the right price. But the truth is… the real difference between successful investors and those who struggle has very little to do with the property itself. It comes down to strategy. Because the investors who build long-term wealth don’t just buy property - they build a long-term property strategy which includes a financial buffer that allows them to ride out the ups and downs of the market. In other words, they buy themselves time. In this episode, Brett Warren and...

Property Investment & Wealth Creation Australia | The Michael Yardney Podcast
You’ve probably noticed that some property markets surge ahead while others seem to tread water… even when the broader economic conditions are the same. It’s easy to blame interest rates, government policy, or media sentiment, but those factors only tell part of the story. The real drivers sit underneath all of that, and they’re far more predictable if you know where to look.

The Population Ponzi Property Investors Must Understand
Property Investment & Wealth Creation Australia | The Michael Yardney Podcast
Australia doesn’t just have a housing problem. We have a city problem. And it’s about to get a lot worse, according to my guest today, Ross Elliott. Everyone talks about housing shortages. Almost no one talks about hospitals, schools and services. So today, we’re asking the question policymakers avoid – how much infrastructure do our cities actually need for the people we’re adding? It’s all about capacity - not just the number of people our cities can hold, but whether Australia’s infrastructure and planning systems can keep up. Ross has been writing about...

Why Are Property Prices STILL Rising? (No One Expected This) | Dr Andrew Wilson
Property Investment & Wealth Creation Australia | The Michael Yardney Podcast
If you’re feeling uncertain about what’s really going on in the property market right now… you’re not alone. Because the biggest challenge facing our housing markets today isn’t interest rates, inflation, or even affordability… It’s uncertainty. We’ve got multiple forces all moving at once - some pushing prices higher, others working against them - and for many investors, that’s making it harder than ever to form a clear view of what comes next. And yet… despite all that… property prices are still rising. So what’s really...

Today I’m joined by Ken Raiss, and together we unpack why real wealth is built slowly, strategically, and patiently. I know that sounds boring, but stick with us as we discuss the rise of inexperienced, hype-driven buyer’s agents...
