What's an "honest liar" in real estate and when will they be no more?



Plus: The two key things you should look for when buying an apartment.

Ewan Morton pulls no punches on why agents do the wrong thing and we have a bit of spirited debate about the pros and cons of buying new apartments. This energetic conversation traverses two very contentious issues and there are loads of revelations:
How is a good agent able to overcome a lack of trust and manage to help both the owner as well as the buyer.
Agents no longer hold all the information but it’s not a bad thing.
How agents have been punished for telling the truth by vendors.
His dialogue for telling vendors “as it is” when they should take an offer.
The secret to getting more money out of buyers.
How he gets buyers to trust him and why buyers should disclose info to agents.
Treating agents with respect doesn’t mean buyers are not in control.
Changing attitudes to apartment living and the debate about oversupply.
What’s with the quality of new builds?
The important things to research before buying a brand new apartment.

Another cracker episode, Ewan does not hold back!

Who's really in control when you buy a property?

The Elephant In The Room is where the things that no one wants to talk about, actually get talked about.  

Veronica Morgan, real estate agent, buyers agent and co-host of Foxtel’s Location Location Location Australia & Chris Bates, financial planner, mortgage broker and wealth coach have joined forces to find out what’s really going on in the world of real estate.

Veronica and Chris talk to property owners and buyers every day in their respective lines of business. They’ve observed a wide spectrum of confidence in people’s decision making ability when buying and selling property, often to the detriment of the individuals concerned. They are both fascinated by consumer behaviour and together they’re going to uncover who’s really making the decisions when you buy a property.

In each episode they get into the psyche of buyers, agents, auctioneers and other industry experts to learn the truth about how buyers are influenced and why they do the things they do. In every episode you’ll learn from the mistakes of a “property dumbo” as well as Chris & Veronica’s “elephant rider bootcamp” training session.

The plan? This property podcast has been created to help us all make better property decisions!

We talk about the things no one wants to talk about in the Property Market
