The final part of our mini-series: “The Step-By-Step Process To Win In A HOT Property Market” has landed!

Just in case you missed it…

LAST TWO WEEKS ON THE PROPERTY COUCH.

• Episode 326 was all about The SEARCH for the property and The DUE-DILIGENCE around the search and the finance (lending) for that property!
• Episode 325 was about GETTING STARTED! Nailing the brief, how to get your FINANCE ready,

And this week is all about…..

MAKING AN IRRESISTIBLE OFFER!

Doesn’t matter if it’s an offer prior to the auction, post-auction or even a ZOOM auction…

We’ll be sharing practical, real-life and tested tips and tactics on setting your offer limit, the tone of voice to use, replies to common agent feedback, body language and more!

And of course…. What happens after the offer gets accepted?! If you think that you’ve signed on the dotted line and that’s it, you couldn’t be more wrong.

It’s not over until the keys to the property are in your hands and you can officially walk in without being considered a “trespasser” ….

We’ll be unpacking the mistakes, the last-minute paperwork, the forgotten things and the follow-ups that a diligent buyer needs to do after signing the contract because let’s face it…. You’ve done so well to secure a property, you DO NOT want to stuff up the final leg.

Part 2 of “The Step-By-Step Process To Win In A HOT Property Market” is HERE…

… and today’s episode is all about two things:

1. The SEARCH for the property…
2. The DUE-DILLEGENCE around the search and the finance (lending) for that property!

Folks, as we mentioned last week in Part 1 of this 3-part mini-series… we are in a HOT property market – listings are TIGHT.

And pretty much every major and secondary market across the country is SMOKIN’…

… so if you’re a property buyer playing in “The Big Wave”, it’s vital you educate yourself so you stay in front of the curb (while NOT getting swept up in FOMO) – this way, you can ultimately enjoy the ride and, yep, the fruits of your smart efforts!

We’ll be unpacking quite a bit in this episode, and you’ll be getting plenty of tips on how to conduct your search to find an investment-grade property (incl. what WE personally and professionally do and look for!)… and let you in on “The Top 3 Deal Does” and “Top 3 Deal Breakers” in a HOT property market… as well as how to be due-diligent with your finances, ESPECIALLY in a market that is moving at a rapid pace.

Remember – stay informed, don’t do anything irrational right now… and ONLY IF you’re in a position to “push play”, move quickly but SMARTLY.

P.S. – Part 1 was all about the backdrop of how we got to this HOT property market, how to get your PREP work done and figuring out your brief… this ep’s getting into the nitty-gritty of the property and lending story!!

The pendulum has swung and Australia’s property market is expected to be very, very different in 2021!

On the back of what we can only describe as “a year we’ll never forget”, property is about to bounce ahead in a direction very few could have predicted during the height of the pandemic panic.

In this episode, you’re about to hear an expert forecast that reveals key market insights into the Property Market Outlook for 2021.

Joining us is Cameron Kusher, Executive Manager – Economic Research at REA Group. Cameron has over 15 years’ experience working as a property market analyst (both residential and commercial). His experience spans valuations, property development, development consulting, commercial property research as well as residential property research. Through his work, Cameron has gained a thorough understanding of property market fundamentals across demographics, trends and economics, making him a widely sought-after commentator and presenter on property market conditions and emerging trends.

Oh, and prior to joining REA Group, Cameron spent more than 11 years at CoreLogic where he was the Head of Research for Australia.

… If you want a realistic look into how property will perform this year and where you can expect to see price growth and high demand, then this episode is for you.

This video features Ben’s update on the Reserve Bank of Australia’s cash rate, and because it is the FIRST cash rate announcement for 2021 — and a significant amount has happened between his last RBA video until now — he has a lot to share with you.
And one of those things is very, very exciting indeed.

It just might have a bit to do with, well, double-digit growth for property prices…

And because a significant amount has happened between the last announcement until now (locally here in Australia AND globally)… Ben has a lot to share with you!

The three big themes covered are:

•  Equity Markets – What’s Happening & What’s to Come?
•  Has Australia Pulled a Rabbit Out Of The Hat? 
•  Is It “Up, Up & Away” For The Aussie Property Market…?

And One Final Word…

If you’re worried about your finances or if you have no clarity on your cash flow position, we strongly recommend you to organise your finances now. It’s more important than ever to have a clear view, down to the exact cent, on how much you’re spending each month and how much surplus you’ve got.

There are stories you hear about that stay with you for the longest time. Stories of triumph, stories of heartbreak, stories of beating the odds. Personal stories are so authentic and transparent that, no matter what, it hits your core and you can’t forget them.

This episode is THAT story. And today’s remarkable guest is Sam, a Couch Listener who is as inspiring and impactful as they come!

Over four years ago, life was very different for Sam. For almost a decade she struggled with mental health and substance abuse… to the point where she was caught in a revolving door of psychiatric hospitalisation.

Since high school, she has battled with mental health challenges, which continued for 9 years, while her struggles with illicit substances lasted for about 7 years…

Fast forward to today, and Sam’s life is “we have no words” different. A PHENOMENAL turnaround you just have to hear to believe, folks!

Oh, and just FYI… Sam is a young single woman on a modest income who has never known ANY other property investors… yep, that’s ON TOP of her incredible backstory.

Just listen to it. You’ll be blown away.

We know cause we were.

There are SO many layers to this listener’s story, it’s incredible!   For one, when Eric T was at uni, he was paid a little “classroom visit” by, get this… sleek Spruikers in their fancy Armani suits who not only [...]

The post Episode 321 | Groomed At Uni To Be A Spruiker… But Now Look Where He’s At! – Chat with Eric appeared first on The Property Couch.

Using a credit card to earn Qantas Points… is it even worth it?!

Folks, joining us today is listener Megan – and not only is she going to help us answer this exact question (… just wait ‘til you hear the reason it came up in the first place!), she is also living proof that your money backstory does NOT have to be your financial destiny!

This is a financial transformation no one should miss – we cover a LOT of ground, including… a backstory of Financial Hardship, learning the hard way about bad debt, setting new money habits, investing as a parent… you name it!

Megan was an absolute joy to interview and is extremely generous and transparent when it comes to sharing the truth of her story so others can benefit from it.

Highly recommend this one, folks!

And, yep, it might make you think twice about how you use a credit card!
