WHY INVEST?

HERE IS CRITICAL INFORMATION YOU NEED TO INVEST SAFELY

THERE ARE SOME IMPORTANT THINGS YOU NEED TO BE AWARE OF BEFORE YOU BUY

The property market started to fall around March 2020 at the beginning of the virus and Australia slipped into recession for the first time in 30 years.

Prices in some cities dipped BELOW their LONG-TERM trend line.

WHY is this so important for investors or home buyers?

I will show you why shortly, and also give you some breaking (and critical) news on the market that you MUST know before even thinking of buying.

In addition, I will provide a link to a very important Special Report you need to read BEFORE investing that will greatly help you.

-----------------------------

You are probably aware already of all the different things you have to be thinking about.

EVERYTHING FROM TAXES TOO FINANCING.

BUT THERE ARE PROBABLY MANY THINGS YOU ARE NOT AWARE OF, OR HAVE EVEN THOUGHT ABOUT.

So what you are about to read will give you nearly everything you need to know, all in one place, to be able to buy safely, securely, with all the "fluff" taken out, so that the whole process can be simplified.

For any investor or future home owner in Australia, this could be the single most important thing you will read, here's why.

My research, experience and knowledge of the markets helps you to purchase the right property at the right time in the property cycle, which greatly helps in reducing risk.

 Is NOW the Right Time to Buy in Australia?

But first, to understand whether it’s best to wait or should you be jumping in, let’s see what the market was doing in February 2020 before the virus changed everything forever.

(With everything that happened in 2020, THAT now SEEMS a very long time ago!)

This chart below LOOKS like a LOT of data, but for our purposes, please take a moment just to look at
SYDNEY/ MELBOURNE QUARTER AND ANNUAL FIGURES

What this shows, is that for the quarter ending February 2020, Sydney dwelling prices had gone up by 4.6% over the past 3 months, and therefore could be on track for a possible 13.8% growth over the year if that rate kept up.

All was well in the world, UNLESS you hadn’t yet purchased.

At nearly 11% appreciation, rate, most investors (if they have borrowed 70%) would be achieving a ROI of 36% per annum before adding the rental return.

(More on that later)

You can also see that for the past 12 months; Sydney had achieved a very good appreciation rate of 10.9%.

You can clearly see that Melbourne recorded a very similar result.

THE ONSET OF THE VIRUS

Australia started to be affected by the virus from March 2020.

Just look at SOME of the headlines from March to October 2020:

"Auction clearance rates drop to near-record low”

"Immigration Slump to Weigh Heavily on Australian House Prices"

"Auction clearance rate plunges into deep abyss"

"August falls won't be the last for Australian housing market"

"Final auction clearance rate collapses to lowest in memory "

"COVID-19: Australian house prices fall for fifth straight month "

"Auction clearance rates fall off a cliff"

If you hadn’t purchased, I am sure you were glad you hadn’t!

Then suddenly in November:

A COMPLETE REVERSAL

"Australian Consumer Confidence Hits 7-year High"

"Australian Dollar Trades at 2-Month Highs"

"Australia Business Sentiment Soars to Near 1-1/2-Year High"

"Australia Posts Largest Trade Surplus in 3 Months"

"House prices to surge in Australian capital cities, driven by 'aggressive' Government stimulus" (Dec.2020)

WHAT ABOUT "EXPERT" FORECASTS:

What did Australia’s biggest banks predict?

After all, they control the mortgages and have highly paid economists on their teams, they should know, right?

In the middle of 2020:

ANZ “forecasts a pandemic-linked 10 per cent drop in house prices “

WESTPAC “are expecting between April 2020 and June 2021, the national price index to fall by 10 per cent”

NAB “House prices to fall up to 15% despite improved outlook”

(I have some BREAKING NEWS on the market coming up)

AUSTRALIA'S MAJOR BANKS SAID THIS IN NOV. 2020:

ANZ : “now expects strong growth in 2021 – housing prices in Perth are likely to jump 12 per cent, Brisbane 9.5%, Sydney prices are expected to rise 8.8%, and Melbourne will have 7.8% growth”

WESTPAC:  “predicts Australian house prices will come roaring back and rise 15% after bottoming out in 2021”

NAB:   “now sees an overall national increase of around 5% over 2021”

Mmmm. It’s no wonder investors get confused. And end up doing nothing. Fear is a strong deterrent to acting.

The point of showing you this is simply to caution you to be wary when it comes to house predictions or what you see in the media. LOOK AT THE DATA, AND FACTS, so you can make informed decisions YOURSELF.

And in The latest Corelogic figures show that median house prices have increased in every capital city around Australia recently, but that doesn’t reflect the strength of certain segments of the market, in particular the higher end properties which have increased in value considerably.

Keep reading and I will explain why this has happened in a time of uncertainty, and no wage growth, and high unemployment. It doesn't SEEM to make sense, BUT you will soon see why this is happening and more importantly, what WILL happen going forward.

SO, HERE ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT FACTS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT BEFORE CONSIDERING BUYING:

HUGE AND CONTINUING POPULATION GROWTH ENSURES STRONG DEMAND WELL INTO THE FUTURE

"AUSTRALIA HAS THE WORLD'S MOST EXPENSIVE PROPERTY"

HAVE YOU GOT YOUR AUSSIE DOLLARS YET?

WHAT ELSE DO YOU NEED TO KNOW?

All the above points just alone are certainly conducive to investing in real estate in Australia.

But here are some other points you need to know that show why Australia has been, and will remain, one of the world's most desirable investment options.
