    We deep dive into the latest inflation data moments after its release.

    Trimmed mean inflation, the RBA’s preferred measure of inflation, came in at 0.8% for the June Quarter. Headline inflation came in at 1%, up 3.8% for the year.

    Making up this inflation data:
    ⭐ ‘Non tradables inflation’ came in at 5%, unchanged from last quarter. This shows domestic based inflation pressures are now driving inflation.
    ⭐ Goods inflation both ticked up a bit to 3.2% for the year
    ⭐ Services inflation came in higher at 4.5%.

    What does this mean for interest rates?
    ⭐ While this print does not rule anything in or out, it’s unlikely to drive an interest rate increase next month.

    Overall this is encouraging news for mortgage holders. This data set was perceived as ‘dangerous’.

    If it came in above expectations, there was a high chance it could drive a rate rise. This print is more than likely going to continue the ‘holding pattern’ the Reserve Bank of Australia are currently in.

    The AUD fell on the news, and the share market went up - indicating traders will pare back bets on any rate rise next week.

    Encouragingly, lead data on HOUSING, which makes up 22% of the CPI basket, shows positive signs to future CPI releases. Both asking rents and construction costs are rising at a slower rate. This should put downward pressure on future inflation data.

    5 years on, Covid is still driving some WEIRD outcomes to the housing market. We unpack 3 areas that are NOT back to normal just yet and what it means for property investors across the country.

    1. Population Yo-Yo: The biggest fall in 50 years, and then the biggest rise a couple years later. Despite little change in the overall population expectation over a 5 year period, this has caused rapid rental inflation.

    2. Construction market: The big inflation in construction markets has driven strange outcomes in housing supply figures.

    3. Interest Rates & Macro settings: The big fiscal stimulus has driven a big change in inflation figures, that are driving interest rates and property values today.

    Inflation data has come in too hot once again, and its increased the chance of rate rises again.

    With the Australian economy no longer growing and population growth slowing down, it is quite likely any further rate rises will be known as the 'recession rate rises'.

    We are at a pivot point in this economic cycle, and 30 days away from a major policy decision that could have significant knock on effects for employment, housing & the economy.

    Every negotiation is about information, education & working together to getting a deal done.

    It is FAR easier to get deals done with experience, information than without.

    So, how do you, someone who doesnt actually buy property very often - get a successful conclusion?

    Its not as simple as picking out an apple at the store and buying it.

    There's generally more than one bidder for the property you want to buy, so you may not actually get what you want. Price, terms, etc are all negotiable.

    In this episode, we talk about ways you can increase the chances of getting a successful property deal done.

    We attempt to uplift your information by educating yourself exactly HOW to present offers and get a deal done.

    We break up this episode into two parts

    Getting ready to buy

    Get your finances ready BEFOREHAND – ideally make unconditional on finance offersProperty managers are your friends – you need them to visit the property for you.Generally ask for a B&P. They’ll find something. Ask the report person to identify high level costing of fixing, and ask for discount. Don’t ask, don’t get.Contract reviews – getting comfortable with contracts. Keys things to look for; planning agreements, title search, easement search, special conditions, settlement timings, etc.

    Negotiation

    Dealing with Agents, how to become a 'preferred bidder'.Sourcing OFF MARKET opportunities, exactly HOW to find them.Negotiation – be CLEAR with your intentions.Set your value price – it can get heated in negotiations, know when to walk away.Don’t be afraid of missing out early – remember, theres a good deal every week

    *** Our sincere apologies, yesterdays version had audio quality errors. This version is corrected.

    As an individual property investor, you will be making a very very small number of property investments in your lifetime. Even Australia's Billionaire property developers make up a very small amount of total transactions.

    This means you should, and CAN, target SPECIFIC properties that OUTPERFORM.

    The rise of buyers agents and property courses has elevated the entire industry forward and helped property investors move forward dramatically by opening up the entire country, educating us all and helping us make better decisions.

    Nonetheless, this approach has also promoted targeting 'AVERAGE' individual properties. There's simply more of them available, which helps promote transactions and in turn deliver outcomes for lots of property investors who they represent.

    This DOES NOT need to be YOU though.

    YOU make only a handful.

    Average simply shouldnt be the hurdle for good enough.

    We unpack how to find properties that will outperform because they benefit from AUSTRALIA's DOUBLING POPULATION in our lifetimes.

    Picking areas that are about to BOOM is entirely predictable.

    In fact, this is far easier to do than picking areas that MAY do well in the years ahead. Typically these markets have all the features of HIGH DEMAND, LOW SUPPLY

    That combination means prices are going to rise. Perhaps first in the rental market, and then spillover to the housing market.

    In this episode, we go through each KEY metric to look at.

    Now theres lots and lots of data points, so we’ll focus on the ones that REALLY matter and show close correlation with SHORT TERM BOOM!

    All of this is less about the economy itself – its likely that’s already doing very well. Its about DEMAND vs SUPPLY IMBALANCES across the rental and housing markets.

    INVESTOR SPECIAL SERIES 1/4: Over the past 10 years, I’ve had the pleasure of working with the best, 1000s of property investors, etc. This has framed my property investing strategy, the ‘alpha-beta’ strategy.

    Property markets work in cycles. If the average growth rate is 6%, then that is made up of years of 20%+ growth and years of no growth.

    As property investors, we want to buying in areas that are going to do very well soon. We want to minimise the amount of time before the next BOOM comes around.

    But we also want to be buying BEFORE that BOOM is in place. The earlier you buy here, the more risk it comes with. Things change. Its all a lot more uncertain.

    In this episode, we cover 5 factors that help manage that uncertainty by increasing the likelihood an area is going to do well. Its all about the ECONOMY. A state, a capital, an area where the economy is going to perform really well and much better than it usually does, is going to do well.

    Should i invest in an apartment? Many property investing experts say NO. Indeed, so many of the best buyers agents in Australia simply DO NOT buy apartments.

    But Sydney apartments are now growing at DOUBLE the rate of houses.

    Are they overlooking the data?

    We unpack WHY apartments may be set for short term growth, including:

    1. Value - apartments are showing strong value signals, being significantly underpinned relative to houses vs history. A typical 20% spread in median dwelling values has DOUBLED in recent years.

    2. Affordability - lower price points are the name of the high interest rate game! Apartments are more affordable, and that means more demand in a money-strapped environment.

    3. Supply - we are NOT building enough, don't have enough & aren't even approving enough. The supply pipeline is horrible, with around HALF of the total apartment supply required actually being delivered over the 3 year period ahead.

    4. Population - new entrants & students often prefer apartment living. With the population boom underway, does that add to more demand for apartments?

    Inflation came in at 1% for Q1 2024 in a big economic release. This was above market expectations, coming in way too high and is a cause for concern. Inflation is the number one data item that the RBA look at, and with this high number, rate cut talks for the foreseeable future are over.
    The RBA removed its stance on 'increasing interest rates' at its last meeting, but is likely to reinclude it next week and warn Australian's that further rate rises may be required to quell the inflation beast.
