Property Investment, Success & Money | The Michael Yardney PodcastHere's why the property markets may have already bottomed, with Stuart WemyssHave their property markets really bottomed? Well, that's a brave call made by my guest today, Stuart Weymss. If you think about it, this time last year, the property market was running full steam ahead, consumer confidence was high, and you could still get a fixed mortgage rate with a 2 in front of it. What a difference a year makes. The Reserve Bank of Australia began lifting the cash rate in May in response to rising inflation and hasn't stopped since - enacting the fastest series of rate hikes since the 1990...

2023-01-1141 minProperty Investment, Success & Money | The Michael Yardney PodcastMaking this investment mistake could cost you $1million, with Stuart WemyssWe're living in challenging, stressful times with a barrage of mixed messages about what's ahead for our economy and our property markets. Everything seems to be stacked against those looking to invest in property, falling values, rising interest rates, and various governments interfering, making it seem like we are losing control of our investments. The bottom line is investing is getting harder. It's easy to see all the risks and problems now, but in five years, it's likely we will look back and see lots of missed opportunities because the rear vision mirror...
2022-11-0738 minProperty Investment, Success & Money | The Michael Yardney PodcastHere's why now is a good time to buy your next property, with Stuart WemyssOur property markets couldn't look more different from this time last year if they tried. Gone are the frenzied buyers gripped by FOMO, housing markets in which prices rose by $1200 a day, and auctions that routinely finished millions of dollars over their reserve. Last year's scenario of never-ending price rises has been replaced by rapid-fire interest rate rises (with more to come), slowing or falling prices (depending on your postcode), and a general sense of trepidation. If you're a buyer, do you sit on your hands and wait for prices to fall? Or...

However, the grinding reminders of the economic challenges we are facing can be a harsh test of character for even the most experienced investor. There is continual news about rising inflation and higher interest rates and how this could lead to a significant downturn in our property market. So how can property investors prepare for the possible turbulent times ahead? That's what I'm going to be asking leading financial advisor...
2022-07-1147 minProperty Investment, Success & Money | The Michael Yardney PodcastShould you ever sell a property? Here are 4 times the answer may be yes with Stuart WeymssA common property investing rule-of-thumb is that you should "buy property and never sell". That's because property prices always trend higher over time which means you benefit from compounding capital growth. Of course, the rule-of-thumb should be adjusted to include "buy quality property and never sell" to ensure you maximize investment returns. But the reality is, that sometimes the smartest thing to do is to sell a property, even if it is a quality asset if it helps you move forward towards achieving your goals. So, in today's show, I chat w...
