#24 Part 2 – How James Bowe is Turning Aussie Renters Into Home Owners


Listen Later

In this episode of the Australian Property Show, you’ll get to hear part 2 of our interview with James Bowe of Own Home.

James has an incredible story to tell. As the co-founder of an Aussie startup that is on a mission to remove the biggest barriers to homeownership for first-home buyers today, James and his co-founder Tim have uncovered a unique solution to housing access and affordability.

Throughout the episode, we cover that very solution, and the key challenges facing first-home buyers in Australia today. We also look at:

  • The massive 8-year advantage Baby Boomers had over first-home buyers today
  • The impact Australia’s highest population growth in 80 years is expected to have on housing affordability
  • Why James expects homeownership may become out of reach for many Australians within 2 decades, without solutions like Own Home
  • Why rent-to-own housing schemes aren’t working in Australia despite their success in the US; and
  • The bold vision James and co-founders have for beating the Commonwealth Bank

  • Thanks for tuning in and please enjoy part 2 of our interview with James Bowe.
