Frank Gelber describes himself as a property forecaster with a long memory. In this interview we are all treated to a masterclass in property cycles from an expert with an impressive pedigree. Frank is a director of BIS Oxford economics and he takes us on a whirlwind tour of the entire Australian property market and explains how interconnected it all is. Here’s what you’ll learn:

• How buyers can navigate property cycles safely.

• Options for different players in the property market - developers, short term investors, renovators, long term investors, owner occupiers.

• What it takes to set off a boom and how long it takes to absorb the excess capacity created during that boom.

• Which commercial market is about to have an “almighty boom”.

• In a low growth market should you chase yield?

• The structural changes in the economy and the knock on effect in our housing.

• Why removing negative gearing will result in increased rents.

• The domino effect of a low Aussie dollar, increases in tourism, jobs and population growth.

• Why corporates haven’t got into residential property investment.

• Build to rent, is it a good idea and can it work in Australia?
