At the end of 2021, the media ran many stories on a market downturn. The problem is, there never seems to be any middle ground with property headlines. It's always either boom or doom. 

What sparked these gloomy headlines? Is the property market really experiencing a downturn? And what does this mean for sellers and buyers in 2022? 

To gain clarity, we’re joined by Meighan Wells of Property Pursuit and Jarrod McCabe of Wakelin Property Advisory. We discuss our outlook on the Melbourne and Queensland property markets, if we should focus on the right time to buy or the asset, and how to best prepare for buying in 2022.

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
