This week we go back to our podcasts recorded pre-Covid and in this week's episode, the Property Planner, Buyer and Professor discuss data provided by CoreLogic on Australia's top performing cities. Which cities took out the gold, silver and bronze? In this episode David, Cate and Peter take you through: •Dissecting data provided from Core Logic for the last decade for all capital cities and regional centres of each state. You may be surprised by the winners and losers as we hand out the gold, silver and bronze medals. •How regional centres fared compared with their capital city counterparts and why capital growth and rental yield often have an inverse relationship. •The performance of units compared with houses, which are gaining in popularity in some cities. But beware of the data! Metrics surrounding units can very easily lead you astray. •How much $1,000,000 invested 10 years ago in each capital city would be worth today and which cities actually went backwards during that time. A good reminder that not all property rises in value! •The importance of risk management and mortgage strategies to save yourself stress and hold on to assets when the market inevitably starts to dip. •How your next investment purchase could be anywhere in Australia, depending on your price point, risk profile and stage of life. •Why values based on growth over the last ten years are now on trajectory to double every 15 years, not every 7-10. •Why your specific location and property selection is the key ingredient to financial out-performance as you do not purchase a city, suburb or a street. Every property provides a different financial return to the overall market return which is a formula-based average! •And of course, our "gold nuggets"! Visit the show notes - https://bit.ly/3hbZcVB
