This week, we are very lucky to have REIWA's very own Research Analyst, Dillon Kanbi, in the studio. Dillon is the brains behind all of the statistics and reporting that are provided on a weekly basis. If REIWA released it, Dillon probably created it. An economist by trade, with his unique insight into all of Perth's market data, Dillon sits down with Trent to provide a fantastic insight into his views on the Macro environment impacting Perth's Real Estate market in May 2022.

With a few weeks having passed since the WA borders have opened, Brendon Ptolomey is back in the studio providing some anecdotal insights on how the Perth property market is progressing. Is the Perth real estate market still growing? How will interest rate rises impact the real estate market? Listen in to find out.

With variable interest rates about to start getting more expensive and fixed rates already on the move, Sam Carrello is back in the studio this week providing an update on the mortgage market. Should you fix your rate? Should you get a variable rate? Where are interest rates going?

This week we sit down with an up-and-coming Development Manager in the WA market, Fenualla O'Brien. Currently managing a number of notable land developments around Perth for Parcel Property, Fen is also the Chair of the UDIA WA Outlook Committee. For all those looking to get into the industry or understand the role, this episode is for you.

This week, for the first time, we explore the world of large-format land development with Chris Bitmead, director at TABEC. What does it cost to develop a new land estate? What does it cost to build a new road? How long does it take? All these questions are answered.

This week we sit down with Tim Dick from MetroWest to explore the world of commercial construction. Think childcare centres, fast food, fuel, storage, medical centres and more. If you're interested in developing this asset class, this will be a valuable intro for you. 

Ever wondered how and where investors source properties without competition and (often) below market value? Buying distressed sales is a strategy a small number of investors exclusively stick to. Rash Dhanjal provides further detail in this episode.

So many of our info-hungry listeners have asked us where they can learn more about the property market, where they can find more property news and property data. Finally, we have a place to point you - The Property Tribune. It's an online publication that releases over 100 new property-related articles a week, focussing on property development, property funds, market data, finance, and more. We interview the WA-based founder, Evan Cunningham-Dunlop to learn all about it.

This week we get a brand new #1 agent into the studio to speak about three suburbs at once! That man is one of the hardest working agents in Perth, Rash Dhanjal. What's been happening in the North-East land estates recently? Have they seen the growth the rest of Perth is seeing? Let's find out.

The questions keep on coming in, and they keep getting better, so on this long-weekend episode, we are in the studio answering the best of the best. Interest rates, Ukraine, construction, buying. All topics covered.
