In this special year-end episode of the Michael Yardney Podcast, I chat with Stuart Wemyss about the key lessons we've both learned from the property markets in 2024 and what we can expect in 2025.
Let’s face it, 2024 threw plenty at us—rate movements, geopolitical turmoil, falling consumer confidence, uncertainty about rate movements, shifting buyer behaviour, and a housing market that continued to keep investors on their toes.
So we explore the impact of interest rates, regional market performance, and the mindset needed for successful property investment in 2025.
Takeaways
The fundamentals for property in 2025 are sound but it's likley to be a year of 2 halves. Government policies and economic conditions will shape the property landscape in 2025. Successful investors focus on long-term strategies rather than short-term noise. Understanding the multifaceted nature of property is crucial for making informed decisions. The importance of asset selection cannot be overstated in a fluctuating market like we're experiencing. Interest rates are expected to stabilise or decrease, impacting investor confidence in the second half of the year. Perth and Adelaide have shown strong performance due to affordability - but will likley slow down in 2025. Investor behaviour can significantly influence market trends and property values. Luck plays a role in property investing, but preparation and knowledge are essential. Making good long-term decisions is essential for sustained success in property investment.Chapters

In this “Big Picture” episode of my podcast I get together with leading financial commentator Pete Wargent, who brings decades of perspective to his views, and we discuss the clues in the news as to what’s ahead for our economy and the property markets.
Today we discuss the amended outlook for interest rates and what this means for our housing markets, an update on what APRA had to say about when they plan to loosen their lending buffers, what America’s new president Donald Trump may mean for Australia, the Help to Buy Scheme, and Australia’s ongoing Per Capita Recession.
I hope by the end of today’s show you’ll more clarity about what all this means for our economy and housing markets in 2025.
Takeaways
Inflation has recently fallen to 2.1%, but interest rates won’t fall any time soon. APRA's lending buffers are not set to change soon. Donald Trump’s tariff move could change the game for Aussie property investors The rental price boom is showing signs of easing, but rents will keep rising in 2025 2025 is expected to be a steady year for property, with slower capital growth Mortgage stress remains a concern for many homeowners. Government schemes like Help to Buy aim to assist first-time buyers, but will only increase property values. Wealth in Australia continues to rise despite our economic challenges. Black Friday sales have shifted consumer spending habits.Chapters

It’s customary at the end of the year to look back at the year that was and then look forward to making some predictions for our housing markets for the year ahead, and in today’s show, Dr Andrew Wilson and I explore the trends that will shape the property markets in 2025.
Takeaways
The housing market in 2024 has been consolidating after a strong rebound in 2023. 2025 is likely to be a year of 2 halves, and the markets will rebound when interest rates fall. Melbourne's property market is underperforming compared to other capitals but offers significant future opportunities as you can buy well located properties with substantial built in equity. Interest rates will likely remain steady till the middle of 2025, impacting buyer activity and market sentiment. Over 2024, Brisbane, Perth, and Adelaide property markets grew strongly and attracted investors, often buying secondary properties sight unseen Rental growth has slowed due to affordability barriers, but vacancy rates remain extremely low. Investors are returning to the market, particularly in states with strong capital growth. The economic outlook remains positive, supporting housing market stability in 2025. Local factors will drive price growth in 2025, rather than national trends. Understanding demographic trends is crucial for property investors. A strategic property plan can help investors navigate the current market conditions with more certainty.Chapters

Today Simon Kuestenmacher and I explore why young Australians are increasingly delaying their dreams of homeownership.
We've all heard about skyrocketing property prices and the challenges of securing a mortgage but, as you’ll hear, there's more to the story than just affordability.
Sure, property prices present a significant barrier, but we also examine lifestyle changes, such as extended periods in education and the prioritisation of experiences over material possessions, reshaping the housing market landscape.
We also discuss some very important demographic shifts, including the transition of millennials from urban rentals to suburban family homes, and highlight the rise of build-to-rent and co-living spaces.

In this episode of Michael Yardney Podcast I’m joined by Brett Warren to challenge a common belief many beginning property investors hold: that those who bought into the market 20 years ago had it easy.
It’s a complaint I hear often—‘If only I had bought back then, property was so affordable.’
But what if we told you that investing in property has never been easy? The investors who succeeded weren’t simply lucky—they were those who stayed the course through thick and thin.
We’ll also share the story of Joseph, one of our clients who bought a 2 bedroom apartment in Marrickville, Sydney, back in 2008 and paid $280,000 for his property, which is now valued at nearly $1 million.
Takeaways
Investing in property has always been challenging, regardless of the era. Long-term thinking is crucial for successful property investment. Emotional resilience helps investors navigate market fluctuations. A strategic plan is essential for achieving investment goals. Quality assets should be prioritised over the quantity of properties owned. Market cycles are inevitable; understanding them is critical to success. Investors should focus on fundamentals rather than short-term data. Education and self-improvement are vital for financial success. Networking with experienced investors can provide valuable insights. Patience and a long-term vision are necessary for wealth creation.Chapters

Our real estate markets have surprised many on the upside this year– especially considering high interest rate environment, but what lies ahead for our real estate markets now?
That’s what we discuss in today’s show
Looking back at how previous property cycles played out, I delved back into my memory to see what lessons I could learn from past property cycles I realised that I’ve probably learned more from the many mistakes I’ve made than from the things I got right.
Now there’s a powerful lesson in itself!
Anyway…in today’s show I share 4 key lessons I wish I’d learned earlier in my investment journey about property cycles.
Takeaways
· Understanding property cycles is crucial for investors.
· The current property cycle began in 2023 and is still evolving.
· Market sentiment often misguides investors about property cycles.
· Quality properties outperform cheaper ones in the long run.
· Different property segments react differently to market changes.
· Allow for unforeseen events, or 'X factors', in investment planning.
· Investors should focus on long-term strategies rather than short-term gains.
· Investors should be cautious of crowd psychology in property markets.
· Planning is essential for successful property investment.

In this episode of Michal Yardney Podcast, I share Warren Buffett's Ovarian Lottery theory, which highlights how luck plays a role in shaping our circumstances and opportunities.
In general when we talk about success, we focus on hard work, talent, and determination, but Warren Buffett points out that luck plays an equally important role.
The circumstances of one's birth can significantly affect life outcomes, and the gap between the wealthy and the poor is widening.
Those born into wealth are more likely to continue accumulating it, while those without such support face greater challenges in building their own financial security.
While the world is getting richer overall, the gap between the wealthiest and poorest is widening, and this is reflected in the housing market and the broader economy.
The ovarian lottery has a lasting impact on society. By acknowledging its role, we can work towards a future where success is determined not by the circumstances of our birth, but by our efforts, talents, and the opportunities we create for ourselves and others.
I also discuss the concept of 'big rocks' in life, emphasising how vital it is to prioritise significant goals and tasks.
I stress the importance of gratitude and social responsibility, encouraging myself and others to reflect on our advantages and the significance of helping those in need.
Takeaways
Warren Buffett's Ovarian Lottery theory illustrates the role of luck in success. Gratitude is crucial for appreciating one's circumstances. Recognizing the advantages we have fosters empathy Reflecting on our luck can lead to a more compassionate society. Social responsibility is a moral obligation for the fortunate. Big rocks are the essential tasks and goals in life. Prioritising big rocks leads to a more fulfilling life.Chapters

While the Reserve Bank of Australia has kept rates on hold yet again, the big question is—how much longer will this last?
And more importantly, when might we see the next rate cut?
With the local economy sending mixed signals, it seems that many economists are finding it increasingly difficult to predict the RBA’s next move. In fact, they keep changing their forecasts.
But it's not just our local factors in play.
Overseas developments, particularly the political shifts in the United States with a newly elected president, could have ripple effects that impact our rates here in Australia.
How will these global pressures influence the timing of any rate cuts? And what might it mean for property markets and investors looking to plan their next move?
That’s what I discussed today with Dr Wilson, chief economist of My Housing Market, in today’s podcast.
Takeaways
· The RBA has held rates steady for the eighth consecutive month, but with economic signals unclear, economists are finding it increasingly difficult to forecast the next move. While many expect a rate cut next year, Dr. Andrew Wilson predicts it may not come until at least late 2025.
· The RBA has indicated that inflation is unlikely to settle within its target range (2-3%) until 2026. With underlying inflation still above 3%, the RBA is expected to keep rates "restrictive" until inflation is sustainably under control.
· Despite the cost-of-living pressures, the Australian economy remains resilient with a low unemployment rate, record-high workforce participation, and robust job growth. Retail sales are also holding strong, staying well above pre-COVID levels.
· Political and economic shifts overseas, particularly in the U.S., could impact the RBA's future rate decisions, adding an extra layer of uncertainty for investors and homeowners trying to plan their next steps.
· The latest ABS data shows a slight decrease in the total value of new housing loans in September, with a 0.3% drop to $30.2 billion. While investor loans fell by 1.0%, owner-occupier loans inched up by 0.1%. Investor loan values remain high in states with strong housing markets.

In today’s show, Brett Warren and I dissect Warren Buffett’s investing principles, especially as they could apply to the Melbourne property market.
We explore the value of long-term strategies, the importance of quality assets, and the need for solid cash flow.
We also discuss market cycles, how interest rates affect investments, and why it’s essential to have a safety margin.
Overall, we emphasise taking a strategic approach to property investment, aiming to build wealth steadily over time rather than chasing quick gains, discussing things like…
· Long-term wealth building requires patience and strategic planning.
· Market cycles are inevitable; timing the market is less important than “time in” the market.
· Quality assets are essential for long-term capital growth.
· Cash flow is crucial for sustaining investments during downturns.
· Investing in desirable locations can mitigate risks.
· A margin of safety protects investments from market fluctuations.
· Understanding demographics and trends is key to successful investing.
· Building a solid foundation takes time but pays off in the long run.
· Having a strategic plan is vital for navigating the property market.

Our housing markets have been remarkably resilient over the last year, despite high interest rates and even though the RBA didn’t drop interest rates this year, like many expected.
With inflation falling faster than expected, there is now the anticipation of rate drops early next year and it seems that the gloom that descended on Australian consumers 2 ½ years ago is finally showing signs of lifting.
What does this mean for our economy and housing markets?
That’s exactly what Pete Wargent and I discussed in today’s show.
We explore also the impact of government policies on property investment and analyze demographic trends affecting housing demand.
The conversation also touches on the challenges within the construction sector and the outlook for property investment in Australia, particularly in light of immigration and economic predictions for 2025.

Today, we're talking about property data.
We’ve all heard the saying, “The numbers don’t lie,” but what if I told you that relying too much on property data could actually lead you astray?
That’s exactly what my guest, Stuart Wemyss and I talk about today.
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the endless stream of property market data or found yourself second-guessing your investment decisions because of some 'hot' new trend, then this episode is for you.

Today we're going to talk about why medium prices may not be the best gauge for housing costs.
Now, if you're like most property investors or people interested in property, apart from auction results, medium prices are probably the most quoted statistic, but maybe they're not the right way for you to judge how our housing market's going. Maybe it's not the best benchmark, and my discussion today with leading demographer Simon Kuestenmacher may challenge some of your perspectives.

Today, we're diving into some timeless wisdom that has guided investors for decades, but with a twist—how these principles apply to property investment.
Ken Raiss and I will explore Benjamin Graham's teachings from his seminal book, The Intelligent Investor, a classic in the world of investing, often revered as the ultimate guide to building wealth.
Now, you might wonder, "What does a book written in 1949 about stock market investing have to do with property?"
Well, Graham's principles transcend asset classes, offering powerful insights into the psychology of investing, that are just as relevant to property investors as to those in the stock market.
So, Ken Raiss and I will translate Graham’s insights into actionable strategies for you for today’s property market. We’ll discuss how to apply these principles to build a resilient and prosperous property portfolio, one that can withstand market fluctuations and help you achieve long-term financial security.

In today’s show we discuss why the rich seem to have fewer problems and how, while money doesn't necessarily buy happiness, it certainly can create less unhappiness.
Together with Tom Corley, the co-author of my best-selling book Rich Habits Poor Habits, we challenge some common misconceptions and dig deep into why financial stability can alleviate many of life's stresses.
Of course, money doesn’t automatically equate to happiness; the rich have their problems and challenges as well.
Still, I’m sure you’ll find my conversation with Tom enlightening as he explains how his study shows that money can alleviate 58% of all the problems we experience.
So, let’s unpack these ideas and provide you with insights that can help you on your own journey to success and fulfillment.

Have you thought about investing in commercial property?
You’re not alone — faced with the prospect of more moderate returns from their residential property investments, many investors consider this an alternative.
By this I mean offices, shops, or warehouses.
Some investors are looking for diversification in their investment portfolios; others are looking for positive cash flow. Some investors have noticed that most institutional property investors and many of the investors you read about in the Financial Review Rich 200 List own mainly commercial properties.
