Episode description
Meet Chris Bates - the mortgage broker who helped both of us (Bryce and Ren) get into our first homes.
We have been getting so many questions about buying a first home, recycling equity and moving into property investment that we've asked Chris to join us on the show to help answer these questions.
In today's episode we cover:
- Our own property stories (and how Bryce almost made a huge mistake)
- Trends in the property market and where to next
- How inflation is impacting property prices
- Some of the common mistakes first home buyers make
- Why Chris thinks debt-recycling is overhyped (but also how we can do it)
- Chris' thoughts on rentvesting
- Whether buying land to subdivide it is a good strategy
- If a buyer's agent is worth it
Wherever you are with property, we think this episode will give you plenty to go away and think about applying to your own finances.
