Extremely LOW interest rate - below 4% for investors
Never before have we seen interest rates this low in Australia. We've even recently seen sub 3% fixed for principal and interest loans for owner occupiers.
Increased borrowing capacity with lenders
The restrictions recommended by the lending governing body have worked as planned and now that the ratio of investors to home owners is a little more balanced, lenders are able to relax their restrictions, making borrowing a little easier for investors.
No change to negative gearing for investors and no change to Capital Gains Tax
Good news on both fronts as a result of the election.
High auction clearance rates
After seeing a lull in the capital city markets across the country during the price correction phase, we're now seeing auction clearance rates rise, signifying activity and growing confidence in the market.
You're invited to our Lunch & Learn workshop to get an insight into what our researchers are telling us about the property markets across the country, to learn from our years of property investing experience and to start thinking about your own investing strategy and goals.
At our next Lunch & Learn event we will share:
- Why now is a great time to invest in property
- The importance of cashflow and picking the right property markets
- What's happening in the Victorian property market
- How to save thousands in tax and build wealth
- How you can invest for less than $50 per week
Interest rates are low, property is affordable in many markets and there are some hot locations that have high rental demand, forecast strong capital growth and quality developments under construction.
We just need to match you with the right property so you can continue to live the lifestyle you want, while your money is working hard for you.
If you love property and what it can do for you, then we recommend you register for our next Lunch & Learn on Wednesday 25th September.
Get a massive headstart into your property investing journey by using our research and knowledge to put your personalised investing strategy into action.

Sydneysiders and Melburnians, put aside your equally outstanding flat whites for a moment. Stop bickering about whether great beaches beat cool laneways (they do) and desist from debating whether all baristas require waxed moustaches (ideally).
Because Brisbane is closing in on the title of Australia’s best city, and we must join forces to keep this subtropical upstart in its place.
Time magazine recently named Brisvegas on its “World’s Greatest Places” list, and omitted our cities. It’s a huge shock (and who knew they still published Time magazine?). But they might be onto something.
Time points to the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games, which will be hosted in the maroon metropolis. Brisbane will do a fine job, even though it’ll baffle the world when rugby league is added to the schedule and Queensland is allowed to field its own team.
Time’s most radical claim is that Brisbane is worth visiting now, but tourism is surging. Not only did Lin-Manuel Miranda recently drop in to catch Hamilton , but hundreds of Hamilfans flew up to watch his interview with Leigh Sales (presumably unaware that it would subsequently arrive on iView for free).
A leading local agent has appraised each side of these duplex's to be worth $665k on completion and rent for $495 per week. So that is massive potentail instant equity of up to $390K on completion, which is incredibly hard to find.
