Perth Property Buyers

When I bought my first property at age 20, there was no strategy behind it. Just a theory. Buy a few rentals and pay them off.
No time horizon or reasoning behind the purchase other than one day, when they’re paid off, the rent may replace my income.
The next few purchases, 10-14 years ago across Perth and Brisbane, were bought with similar theories. Neither market was growing or in any form of boom phase. There were no data platforms or YouTube videos. There were a few magazines and paperback books on the market.
Strategy and learnings came after the early purchases and mistakes. The good thing about property, is that it can fix its self over time, if an error is make.
Yet people today, are hesitant to invest, because of some tax changes, extra holding costs or because they may not make $100k in year one.
People get rewarded by the fruit if they plant the tree. And it’s ok if they don’t want to plant a tree. But they will need to be prepared to pay for the fruit, for the rest of their days, at the price set by the person who planted the tree.
You can still do well in property. And in years to come, this current point in time, is going to look like every other blip that the property market has faced over the past 100 years.

Treasury's analysis of negative gearing and the capital gains tax discount may have overstated the tax benefits for residential property investors.
The May 12 budget included Treasury analysis showing how negative gearing, combined with the 50% capital gains tax discount, provided large tax breaks for real estate investors — in some cases leaving investors paying less income tax than they would have without the property.
AFR reporting this week found that analysis failed to account for state property taxes paid by investors, including land tax and council rates, which reduce the net benefit of the arrangements.
The finding adds to a growing backlash against the federal budget's property tax changes in the weeks since they were announced.
Whether Treasury's modelling will be revised before the legislation is drafted, and what that might mean for the policy design, remains to be seen.

The RBA rate tracker is currently pricing in just a 4% chance of an interest rate rise at the next meeting in 3 weeks time.
While we still may see further rises later in the year, buyers should have more certainty around lending capacity until the August meeting.
We are in a small opportunistic buying window right now, with less competition than what has been, during the first quarter of the year.
There are a few panic sellers out there right now, reacting to a combination of interest rate rises, global events and the recent budget release.
We’ve seen these windows open and close quickly in the past and this one is no different.
It actually reeks of the early COVID 19 hysteria that paused the market briefly before taking off.
An increase of off market properties coming across our desk looking for quick sales. The winners will be those who take action.
