75% of economists predicted another rate drop… Are they right?… or wrong?

As mentioned previously, unemployment and wage growth is a priority for the RBA and despite last month’s cut, there wasn’t a lot of movement found in these two economic indicators.

So the RBA Board has decided to drop another 25 basis points bringing the cash rate to 1%. Find out what other factors have triggered this decision including if the US-China Trade Deals has anything to do with it!

AND if you’d like more data on Ben’s commentary today, here are a few resources:

235 | Money Hacks from the Money Queen – Chat with Effie Zahos

By The Property Couch June 6, 2019 in Podcast

Subscribe On Itunes Subscribe On Android

Folks, we’re up and about today!

Because not only is our dear friend Effie Zahos… aka the Money Queen… finally back on the Couch with us (It was WAAAY back in Episode 105 that we last checked in with her)… there’s also been a bit of a rate movement this week… the first in nearly 3 years! (Well, that, and our footy teams’ played each other on the weekend and Bryce came out on top of ol’ mate Kingsley!!)

What this rate movement means is a little more money in the bank for mortgage owners, which, especially when coupled with today’s episode that’s jam-packed full of Money Hacks, means that there’s a bit of extra money on the table that you can put to work for you. Of course, it does also mean that the Australian economy isn’t performing as well as the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) had hoped, and ultimately there’s a LOT to be said about this decision. So, Ben has created a video on the June RBA Cash Rate Drop, which goes into detail about all this. You can check out the new rate announcement here.

But back to the wonderful, wise and VERY money-savvy guest who’s joined us today…!

It’ll probably come as no surprise to you who the Money Queen is… but we’ll take no chances… and remove all doubt as to who Effie Zahos is!!! She is indeed the “Money” Queen… as in Money Magazine‘s finance editor for over 22 years! Well, we should say WAS the editor cos up until very recently, Effie decided to hang up her Money boots and walk in her own shoes instead… and she’s JUST released a brand new book, A Real Girl’s Guide to Money: From Converse to Louboutins!!
And today she’s sharing her best Money Hacks and financial tips so that you can stay on track of your hard-earned cash and make sure you have enough in retirement!

And, yep, if you hadn’t put two and two together yet… Effie’s personally worked alongside the likes of the Original Money Guru, Paul Clitheroe — our 200th episode’s very special guest — for a couple of, ahh, DECADES.

So you’re in VERY safe hands!

Also in today’s ep, we let the cat out of the bag on Bryce’s Brand New Free 3-Part Video Series…

234 | Have We Bottomed Out Sooner Than We Thought? The Exclusive Data Insights from Louis Christopher from SQM Research

By The Property Couch May 30, 2019 in Podcast

Subscribe On Itunes Subscribe On Android

Well, well, well…. Have we hit the bottom of the market folks???

In the shadows of the election — aka the Coalition’s surprise victory — it appears that confidence has returned to the property market!

And now the crystal ball question — “When’s the bottom of the property market happening?”may not be as cryptic (or as distant from us!!) as we first thought!

So. What do we mean by this?

Well, let’s put it another way… We jumped on a plane last week especially to bring you back the insights from today’s guest!!! And you just might recognise him —Louis Christopher the Director of SQM Research and one of Australia’s most respected and impartial Research Property Analysts. He has extensive knowledge and experience of property and is regular quoted in the media on his insights!

And he’s NOT afraid to tell it like it is.

So… what’s his latest data suggesting?

Before you meet the man behind the media and get to hear his forecasts, we just want to remind you that, yes, even though PICA likely had a bit of an impact on the election results, our work on behalf of all Australian property investors is by no means done.

And as Ben talks about in today’s show —- there’s obvious MUCH more PICA’s aiming to achieve, so if you’d like to become a member for as little as $5, please Become a Member Today.

Is something stopping you from joining PICA? Let Ben know here.

Here’s what we discuss in today’s episode:

What happened with Louis’s grandma that made him interested in property?
What’d he do to make his tenants pay rent on time? (Warning: not for everyone!)
What used to happen in the data space?
Why was there controversy starting SQM?
What data was he desperate to get his hands on? How’d they get it?
What does SQM stand for?
What else do they measure aside from property data?
How do they pick the turning point of the market place?
How often do they “get it right”?
Are the observations coming out from the election revealing a trend?
What does he see happening in the next 2 – 4 years?
And what had he modelled if Liberal was re-elected?
How has the uncertainty of the market been lifted?
How will APRA’s recent changes affect the property market?
Will the RBA cut their rate by MORE than 25 basis points next month?
What are the issues with Auction Clearance Rates?
Can they forecast for Capital Growth?
What do they use at a locality level vs the macro level?
How does he measure fair market value?
Is it a good idea to have a market that’s totally dependent on housing?
Is the Australian economy looking up?
Why’s it hard to create inflation if there is so much debt?
What happened to rents and construction levels in 1985?
What makes for a good economy?
The First Home Buyers Deposit Scheme: Will it have a material or immaterial impact on the property market?
What do we think of the NRAS scheme?
Is it time to invest in Perth??
Does a rental market predict that capital growth will likely happen?

AND THE BIGGIE…

When’s the bottom of the market likely going to happen?

75% of economists predicted another rate drop… Are they right?… or wrong?
