Should I Fix My Rates or Leave Them Variable
David gets together again with Mark Davis from The Australian Lending & Investment Centre (ALIC) to chat around the question:
Should you fix your interest rate?
Why are Cash Buffers so Important
“Money is the root of all evil, but if you haven’t got it, it’s worse.” This month on Property Insiders, David sits down with Kevin Agent from the Australian Lending and Investment Centre to chat about cash buffers.
How to Choose a Suburb to Invest in
Good friend of the show, Peter Koulizos, calls in from Adelaide for a chat with David about his bestselling book, Top Australian Suburbs. It’s been a decade since it was first published, but the information it holds still remains relevant. Particularly, the lowdown on what makes a suburb ideal for investing.
One of the Most Powerful Property Statistics
David’s there to explain one of the key metrics for investors: the affordability index. Sharon’s there to keep him in line. This technical insight offers an understanding of what the affordability index is, how it’s calculated, and it’s application for potential property investors.
The Pain of Making Bad Property Investment Decisions
Sharon is joined today by IT professional, David McCracken. Having been investing in property since he was 23, David has a lot of experience with the market. However, he brings with him today not a story of success, but rather a tale of what not to do.
