E 11 - Interest Rates - Elections - Winter is coming

Season 1, Ep. 11

In this week's episode, we chat about the first Interest Rate rise in over a decade.


  • Is this a good or bad thing for our property market? How will this impact the thousands of people that borrowed their limit last year? What to be careful of.


  • We laugh about the election and how the media has made a reality TV show out of it. It's becoming irrelevant who is in power.


  • How low valuations could come in and play a part in a softening market.


  • Winter is coming!!! People are travelling, people are spending, businesses are booming, unemployment is at an all time low, things seem okay, so how does this make things different this time.


We like to keep it light, but we like to cover off on these topics that are extremely important right now. You need to keep an eye on your own affairs and this is important that you take ownership of your own fate.


Also don't forget to check out the show sponsor www.ratetracker.com.au to see how you can let open banking technology protect you from the choppy interest rate market ahead.


We hope you enjoy and we'll see you again soon!

  • E14 - Is Brisbane's boom over? Australian economic outlook - no one F'N KNOWS!!

    22:47
    This week we chat about the state of play with our BOOM or GLOOM segment. We briefly talk about the buoyancy in the purchase markets, we have a quick chat about a softening Brisbane market. Melbourne goes 3 weeks straight with increasing clearance rates. We then chat about the state of the Australian economic outlook. WE ARE NOT ECONOMIST!!! We also think that even economists can't get it right. We chat about the outlook being virtually impossible to predicted greater than 3 or so months at the moment. Are we relying on old and no longer valid metrics to determine a healthy economy?WHY FIXING YOUR HOME LOAN RIGHT NOW IS A TRAP...... We chat about what happened in 2017-2018 when a lot of people got caught out fixing at rates that eventually fell well below their fixed rates. Rental property market update - why it is too hard to be a residential landlord now. Tenants have all the power, is it even worth it anymore? Then we chat about the global macro feeling at the moment. How bad will it get before it gets better. Are we insulated in Australia to some degree. Jump on and we hope you get some value from our chat. Show brought to you by Rate Tracker - https://www.ratetracker.com.au/
