Sarah and Nick delve into the topic of inflation in the property market on their podcast episode, and discuss how inflation can actually be a friend to property investors.

They emphasise the positive relationship between property and inflation, highlighting how inflation can lead to increased rental income and property values over time. By sharing their own experiences and insights, they aim to dispel common myths and fears surrounding inflation in the property industry. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Don't fear inflation in property investment; it can lead to increased property values and rental income.
• Utilise leverage in property investment to benefit from inflation eroding the real value of debt.
• Stay informed about swap rates and mortgage rates to secure good fixed rates with your broker.
• Regularly review rents to ensure they align with market rates and wage inflation.
• Consider potential impacts of rent controls and government policies on the housing market.

BEST MOMENTS

"I get a lot of questions about, oh, aren't you worried about high inflation? My answer is, I love it. Basically, my entire business and life plan almost depends on it."

"It's very much a long-term strategy and it doesn't happen overnight. We are talking about years of holding portfolios."

"But what it's also meant is that inflation is in the system now. And it was always going to happen if you look back at all the money that's pumped into the economy to keep it afloat during the last 10 years."

"It's a win-win. It's you get the property, the inflation erodes the real value of the debt, your equity rises as the years go through."
