In this episode of The Australian Property Podcast, Australia's #1 mortgage broker Chris Bates and top buyers agent Amy Lunardi break down the tricky transition of upgrading or downgrading your property. Topics covered in the Upsizing & Downsizing podcast: Upsizing: Using as a strategy – buying entry level now and upsizing in the future – benefits/risks. Buy or sell first? Buy first Don’t know what you’ll sell for = risk How does bridging finance work? Settlement periods matter: minimise bridging costs, pressure to buy, short term accommodation Flexibility of changing settlements (not guaranteed) Licence agreements/rent backs Downsizing: Cheaper? Not necessarily! I often see downsizers still having lots of ‘requirements’ Single levels, garages, spacious living areas, minimal work required. Consider local demographics Consult with ATO or financial planner regarding downsizer super contribution options, non-concessional contribution which doesn’t count towards the contribution cap How do banks consider equity rich cash poor/no income? Short term accommodation can be stressful / moving twice ~~ Resources you'll love ~~ Mortgage Broking: https://bit.ly/broke-rask Property Coaching: https://bit.ly/R-P-coach 100-point property checklist (PDF): https://bit.ly/prop-check Invest with Owen: https://bit.ly/R-invest Financial Planning: https://bit.ly/R-plan Accounting with Grey Space: http://bit.ly/3DG5lWS Business Coaching: https://bit.ly/o-coach Ask a question: https://bit.ly/3QtiY00 DISCLAIMER: This podcast contains general financial information only.

This Rask podcast episode is going to seem really… different. It’s a wonderful conversation with an extremely entrepreneurial couple who I have followed for a few years. Matt and Liz Raad are serial investors in websites and digital assets. They’re speakers and educators who have probably helped to create tens, if not hundreds, of millions of dollars of wealth for investors, FIRE community members, those escaping the 9-to-5, and business owners. In this podcast, we’ll going backwards, to how they first meet, to walk forwards and map their fascinating business and investment journey. This podcast is all about investing in things you’ve probably never thought you could, or should - websites. If you want Liz, Matt and I to do a round two, I’d love to hear from you. Please use the Rask community, or ask a question link (both are are available in your podcast player) to get in touch with me. And if you’re half as fascinated as I am in what they talk about, go and get in contact with them using the resources for this episode. If you do, let me know what you think.

On this Australian Property Podcast episode, Owen Rask and Amy Lunardi break down 5 of the most emotional traps people fall into when buying their property. Here's what you need to know: 1. Avoiding being too emotional and overpaying Need to have some emotion when buying a property Use this to factor into your ‘competitive buffer’ – how to figure this out (comparable sales plus x%) Where to draw a line in the sand With an investment less emotions (not zero) 2. The need for ‘social proof’ Do your research upfront to avoid self doubt later on 3. Allowing real estate agents/negotiations to impact your decision making Negative experiences with agents A negotiation not happening the way you expect it to 4. Waiting for ‘the one’ or ‘that feeling’ Doesn’t always happen this way (like online dating) Figure out what gives you ‘that feeling’ Focus on your non-negotiables 5. Constantly having self doubt throughout the property journey Often stems from a lack of upfront preparation, research, not knowing what you’re doing Highly influenced by friends/family/media Procrastination, changing strategy throughout, pulling out at last minute ~~ Resources you'll love ~~ Access Show Notes Invest with Owen Mortgage Broking Financial Planning Property Coaching 100-point property checklist (PDF) Accounting with Grey Space Business Coaching Ask a question DISCLAIMER: This podcast contains general financial information only.

On this Australian Property Podcast Australia's #1 Mortgage Broker Chris Bates sits down with Buyers Advocate Amy Lunardi to discuss: - The different phases of buying: saving, getting a mortgage, research and active buying phase - How long does it normally take for each stage? Don’t compare yourself to others - Why would you want to do it faster? No rush but could be wanting to get into own home faster, out of the rental market, family reasons, lifestyle priorities, reduced stress with a drawn out process, during active buying phase – less emotional and time cost. Overarching advice though is that there is NO RUSH, but if it is a goal you should be proactive - Savings phase tips (more income, less spending!) - Mortgage phase tips (inc government schemes/grants) - Research phase tips, timing the market - Active buying tips.
