Property Investment & Wealth Creation Australia | The Michael Yardney Podcast

You heard me say it before - property investment is a game of finance with some houses thrown in the middle.

But the rules of the game are changing in front of our eyes, so today I'd like to explain what's going on with lending, so you have a better chance of the banks saying "yes" to you and lending you more money.

Today's guest is leading finance specialist Adam Bradley and I ask him a number of the common finance questions we're asked when clients come to see us at Metropole, but I'm also going to ask Adam some of the questions you probably wouldn't even think of asking but are important to know the answers to in today's financial climate, so that at the end of today so you'll have a better understanding of how to approach the game of property finance.

If you're a tenant in the market for accommodation, good luck finding something to rent.

And if you're a home buyer or investor, by now you'd realise the market is on the move again.

Today I chat with Dr. Andrew Wilson, Australia's leading housing economist and we discuss his thoughts about the Federal Budget and if it offered any relief for our housing markets,

We also discuss the rental markets, building approval numbers as well as the booming auction clearance results.

While you've probably heard me suggest you should treat your property investments like a business, in today's podcast I'm going to explain to you the different property investment games the people are playing, and how you must beware of taking advice from the people playing a different game than you are?

What do I mean by playing a different investment game? That's what I'm going to explain to you today.

I'm also going to share with you what makes an investment-grade property, and here's a spoiler alert... What makes a great investment for me probably won't be a good investment for you.

While we usually spend a lot of time talking about property in the Michael Yardney Podcast, we also talk about success and money because these are all interrelated. Today we're going to explore the habits that drive exceptional individuals forward with Tom Corley, my co-author of our internationally best-selling book Rich Habits Poor Habits.

And we'll be taking a closer look at one of Tom's thought-provoking blog posts where he said "Without Luck, Success is Impossible: therefore, the only formula that works is the formula that creates luck. And he goes on to say, "Here is that formula."

The future is annoyingly hard to predict, but by combining demographics and other big picture trends our regular guest on this podcast, demographer Simon Kuestenmacher can at least give his predictions a strong, data-driven foundation.

In today's show, I chat with Simon about the substantial population growth Australia is going to enjoy and the opportunities and challenges this will present. We will also talk about how innovative Australia might be a decade from now. And I ask him whether millennials can save Australia's future we explore the role of demographics, innovation, and investment in shaping the future of Australia.

Homeownership is looking further out of reach for anyone without family wealth, as over the last few years property prices kept growing and wages fail to keep up.

Is it really harder to get into the property market today than it was a number of decades ago?

That's what I discuss today with independent financial adviser Stuart Wemyss.

And even if you already own a home, I'm sure our discussion will be valuable because it will help you understand what we believe is ahead for our housing market.

Today we'll be discussing whether residential real estate in Australia is a Ponzi scheme or not.

For many years, there has been a debate about the sustainability of the Australian property market and whether it is a Ponzi scheme waiting to collapse.

Some commentators have argued that rising house prices are being driven by speculation and greed and that it is only a matter of time before the bubble bursts.

In my mindset message, I'm also going to share with you what I believe is the most important money lesson to teach your children.

Regular listeners would now usually have a guest on the show but every now and then I just have a chat – just you and me – and that's what's going to happen today as we discuss these two important topics.
