Tim and & I discuss the rate that stopped the nation - the Melbourne Cup RBA announcements perhaps surprised a few, there was an expectation that there may have been a rate rise. RBA have held the cash rate firm, still buying Govt bonds, however they are starting to bring forward their expectations on inflation. Interest rates potentially rising in 2023 vs 2024. There is an expectation that any upwards movement in interest rates will dampen market, alongside affordability, increase in listing numbers and changes in APRA. We discuss levels of growth across the country, impact of reopening of borders especially on the QLD market. Regional markets continue to outperform capital cities with increased housing demand and not enough supply. Auction numbers are up as new listings come on the market. National rents are up, rising at fastest price since 2008 more focused on houses rather than units. Inner Melb and Syd are showing rise in rents towards the end of Oct as these apartments are much more affordable. Affordability continues to be the key factor that is impacting the market.

Welcome to our mid month market update with Cate Bakos. We talk to Cate about the recent APRA announcements and what that means to home buyers. How the stock levels will change as we open up in Vic and NSW and a move from a sellers market to a more balanced one. Performance of capital cities for sales and rentals. Do we potentially have a upcoming housing crisis with increasing rental rates and wages not keeping up? We also discuss the shift to regional markets - tree and sea change and perhaps as the cities open some will consider going back. Cate takes us through each capital city performance with Hobart taking mantle for the best performing market. We are starting to see investors coming back to the market and well located units, with low outgoing may see a resurgence. We will watch the market over the next few weeks and look forward to updating you in November.

Despite lockdowns the rate of growth in the housing market continues to remain strong across the country. However we are starting to see evidence that this growth trend is starting to lose some momentum. I talk to Core Logic's Tim Lawless on the market performance around the country, low active listings and new stock to market, slight easing of the rental market and emerging risk factors.

After months of record breaking activity, the market has seen a broad based rise of 1.5%, the lowest monthly rise since Jan. In this podcast Tim and I discuss auction clearance rates, listing supply, impact on the spring market due to lockdowns, affordability impact and what is happening in the rental market.

July saw housing values increase a further 1.6%, this rise takes housing values 14.1% higher over the first seven months of the year and 16.1% higher over the past 12 months. However are we starting to see a slow in the pace of growth? In this podcast Tim and I discuss what is happening in each state in the sales and rental market and what headwinds do we see on the horizon.

National home values rose 1.9% in June, taking annual growth to 13.5% for the financial year. The growth in Australian dwelling values was led by houses, which rose 15.6% over the year, compared to a 6.8% lift in unit values. It is the highest annual rate of growth since April 2004. The gap is narrowing between regional Australia and Capital cities. New listing stock remains low which is adding to continued buyer FOMO. The rental values continue to see strong growth and a slight uplift in Sydney and Melbourne.

A lot has happened in May. National values lifted 2.2%, capital city growth continues to outpace regional markets and Melbourne went into its 4th lockdown. In this months podcast Tim and I discuss the performance of markets across Australia the impact of lockdowns growth in smaller capital cities investor activity rental market performance total number of homes on the market remains 24% below 5 year average and impact this has on prices affordability for first home buyers rentvesting and much more

In this April Market Update I talk with Core Logic's Tim Lawless on the continued increase in housing value, pace of capital gains easing, market conditions across the country in sales and rentals. We review what is driving growth, what may slow it down, first home buyer opportunities and market labour trends.

In this episode, we have guest host Kevin Turner chatting with Sadhana, Mike, Joel and Damian on who REIP is, the key Pillars, and what they see as the long term role of REIP.

We have just seen the fastest rate of growth since October 1988! March saw the end of Job Keeper, the moratorium, mortgage deferral program yet the market remain "hot". Capital city growth is just out pacing regional growth where properties are being snapped up in record time. We are starting to see an increase in stock however there is still the supply/demand issue that is keeping prices high. The high auction clearance rate is a good indicator of the tight market conditions. Tim and I discuss: •whether the market is getting too hot too quickly •could we see regulators stepping in if this trend continues with macro prudential controls •the diversity in the rental market across the country •inner city rental markets still experiencing long vacancy periods •what could slow the pace of growth •what may trigger the next down sizing phase

Many years ago I read the book The Invisible Entrepreneur, by Louise Woodbury and William De Ora. It is a book that changed how I view running a business and I have used it many times when coaching business owners. The book is all about how you can * Be in the driver's seat and be involved in the day-to-day management if that's what you're passionate about. *To take three months off (or more), allowing yourself to recharge and simply have a break while the right person runs the business when you're away. *Create a turnkey business you can walk away from altogether, while it continues to generate income for you. *Sell your business at a much higher value than what it would be worth before undergoing the Take 3 Months approach. *Succession planning blueprint for you to transfer your business to the next generation or preparing for a management buyout. My conversation with Manos and Maria - founders and Directors of eView Real Estate was very much about how they have achieved much of this. They spent 6 months in Greece during COVID and their business did not miss a step. Today they have a global team in place - Australia, Greece, Sweden and their business model, which has evolved over the years, is certainly one that will change this industry. Their energy and connection will jump out at you, it is a conversation that will make you think differently and I hope enable you to think about how you can become The Invisible Entrepreneurs

Tim Lawless and I discuss why despite a global pandemic, border closures, lockdowns, lack of migration, higher unemployment and flatter wages the property market seems to be defying logic with the fastest rate of growth in 17 years. We review the strongest performing capital city, regional growth and are the predictions of up to a 20% growth in the market really sustainable. We review supply and demand of new listings and how this favours sellers and the extreme disparity in the rental market that has seen rental rates plunge in two capital cities. I also asked about the potential of forced sales coming onto the market given March sees the end of JobKeeper and deferred mortgages. The property market is certainly a hot topic of discussion, there has been no cliff, issue of affordability has not eased, interest rates remain at record lows and with listing numbers not meeting demand, we will continue to see growth.
