    REIP/Core Logic Oct Property Market Insights/Tim Lawless

    REIP/Core Logic Oct Property Market Insights/Tim Lawless
    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.

    REIP/Realty Market Insights//Cate Bakos
    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.

    June Australian Property Market Update/Tim Lawless
    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.

    March Property Market Update - fastest rate of growth since Oct 1988!

    March Property Market Update - fastest rate of growth since Oct 1988!
    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



    Maria & Manos Findikakis / The Invisible Entrepreneurs

    Maria & Manos Findikakis / The Invisible Entrepreneurs
    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

    February Property Market Update

    February Property Market Update
    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.

    Kylie Davis/Australia's First Proptech Awards

    Kylie Davis/Australia's First Proptech Awards
    Kylie Davis is the Proptech, Real Estate and Marketing Expert and Founder of Australia's First Proptech Association and this year sees the launch of the first Proptech Awards.
    It is a space that is super busy with new products emerging weekly. There is also a converging of Proptech and Fintech products all supposedly designed to make life easier for the end user - our client.
    In this podcast Kylie and I talk about why the Proptech association is important and the role that they are playing in supporting emerging technology. As well as how the awards will help these brands raise their profile across the property sector.
    We also talked about how in such a busy space, it can be confusing as to which product is right for a business. Kylie shares great insights in how to make this decision, ensuring that your people and processes are ready for changes. Understanding that if you are an early adopter that things are not going to be a smooth run.
    Most importantly however, COVID has shown us that we need to move off legacy systems onto platforms that will help us build stronger connections with our clients and develop hybrid working structures.
    Kylie is also a board member of Rise.
    Rise is a movement in real estate that is ‘for good’. We work to improve and grow our industry, to move away from one-dimensional chasing of transactions and GCI, towards rounded human relationships that support wellness, mindfulness and performance, great service for our clients and better outcomes for our teams, our families and ourselves.
    The real estate industry has a shocking legacy of stress, burnout and even suicide brought on by us chasing, and rewarding, the wrong goals. We are working to change this and invite you to #risewithus.
    The Rise conference is on the 5th of May, to book go to https://riseconference.com.au/rise2021-conference/
    Kylie's has the ability to cut through all the buzz words and make it easy for us non-techies.
    She is passionate about innovation and improvement through innovation. A brilliant, knowledgeable woman pushing boundaries.

    Michelle Gibbings/Bad Boss - What do you do if you work for one, manage one or are one

    Michelle Gibbings/Bad Boss - What do you do if you work for one, manage one or are one
    Michelle is the author of three books, a global speaker and is on a mission to help leaders, teams and organisations create successful workplaces.
    Many of us have worked in toxic work environments, and there are times when you dread going into the office, you fear having a voice or being noticed, it can impact your confidence and self esteem and your mental and emotional health.
    Michelle says in her book that people don't deliberately set out to be a bad boss.... often they don't know any better.
    In this podcast, when we talked about toxic leadership, I loved how Michelle says "toxic leadership can be contagious and it in infect people positively or negatively".... just think about this.
    Toxic leadership will impact staff turnover, productivity, employee engagement and client engagement.
    A question that is often asked is are leaders born.... Michelle believes that leadership is a learned skill, coaching and development is critical as is assessment and feedback.
    The book is a must read for everyone and anyone who leads a team, is aspiring to lead a team or works for "bad" boss.
    This podcast will keep you engaged till the last word.... Michelle is simply brilliant....
