This is another show where my neighbour is doing my head in! So pardon me if my tone gets a little gruff in this episode!
So Australia has come out as the second most unaffordable country in the world to buy property.
Many of people are scratching their heads on how to make real estate more affordable for the Australian people. Is this achievable? And if so, how?
A recent parliamentary report has been released, with 16 recommendations to make real estate more affordable. Reports like this give us an idea what the pollies are thinking, so we can be a contrarian and find real estate that creates wealth.
3:19 - The Haves & Have Nots Loom Large
7:10 - Is the Great Australian Dream Dying?
8:14 - Is Density a Good thing?
15:48 - Will Fast Rail Ever Arrive in Australia?
18:42 - Can you still buy for under $500k?
And so much more!

I’m back for 2022 and this ep is the first “live” episode for the year. Yes, you’ve been listening to the best of 21 for the last four weeks - which I apologise for - but I really needed a break after a big year.
This episode is the pep talk we need to have before you catapult into 2022. What do I see the market doing? What did I observe over the break? Where are we in the cycle? And why is most money and capitalism actually fake? And what impact does that have on you as the investor?
All this and more on the first “real” episode for 2022. Enjoy!
2:05 - I disappeared off the face of the earth for four weeks (and what I observed during the break)
13:54 - There are no more cheap hot spot
22:28 - Case Study: Berry NSW
25:12 - Where I see the market in 2022
28:15 - How To Win Real Estate Monopoly
31:35 - Laziness Has Cost Me BIG TIME
35:36 - Things have changed forever
46:00 - Problems are a sign of life
