What does positive growth look like in a long-term property investment? Let's say that you've set yourself up for success from the start: your property is in a growth area and your overall approach to managing your investment is educated and strategic. The result is your property growing in value, and that growth appears as a series of small appreciations each year. For example, a 5-7% increase per year is a healthy baseline for stable property growth in Brisbane. For those looking to invest in property, that percentage may not look like much. But, here's the key thing to remember: property value increases are cumulative. Over time, what that percentage equates to increases alongside the property's value; they grow over time and build on one another, which is why property is a long-term investment. #realestate #brisbanerealestate #propertyinvestment #brisbane #buyersagent

📈 Navigating Interest Rate Trends: When to Expect a Drop? 📉 Interest rate predictions are a puzzle influenced by economic factors and history. The gaps between peak mortgage rates and rate cuts are never exactly consistent and are affected by constantly changing economic conditions. In 2008, rates hit highs and dropped in just 3 months - a rapid response to economic shifts. In contrast, the late 80s saw rates stay high for 16 months, showing the impact of various factors at the time. Over the last 50 years, the average peak duration before cuts is around 9.8 months, but each cycle is slightly unique. Central banks consider inflation, growth, and global trends before rate changes. Geopolitics and shocks play roles too. To summarise, predicting rate drops is complex and reliant on economic cues. Talking to the experts is your best means of understanding when a peak or low is on the way. #interestrates #brisbanerealestate #realestate

Distressed property sales are falling across Australia despite cost pressures! 📊📉 The Brisbane property market is displaying remarkable resilience as distressed property sales continue to decline - from 7.1% to 4.6% in only 6 months. The unexpected strength of the market can be attributed to a few factors. One of the primary drivers is the swift response of the government and financial institutions to implement measures to support both property owners and potential buyers. Stimulus packages, low interest rates, and mortgage relief initiatives have provided a lifeline to homeowners facing financial challenges. Additionally, the enduring demand for housing has played an important role in stabilising the property market. Australia’s unwavering aspirations for homeownership, coupled with the limited supply of available properties, has acted as a buffer against economic downturn. With distressed property sales continuing to fall and the Australian property market displaying incredible resilience, the current climate presents a favourable opportunity for potential buyers looking to enter the market with a sense of increased stability and potential value. #brisbanerealestate #buyersagent #brisbaneproperty #brisbane

Negotiation strategies: How a Buyer’s Agent can get you the best deal! In the competitive world of real estate, negotiation skills can make all the difference in securing the home or investment property of your dreams while also getting the best deal possible. That’s where a skilled buyer's agent comes into play. Buying property involves more than just finding the right property; it’s about navigating contracts, market dynamics, and negotiations. A buyer's agent is your advocate, armed with a wealth of experience and expertise in the art of negotiation. Here’s how we can help: ➊ Objective mediation. Emotions can run high during negotiations, but a buyer's agent maintains an objective perspective. They act as a buffer, communicating on your behalf and ensuring that your interests remain front and centre. ➋ Experience that counts. Years of negotiating on behalf of clients give buyer’s agents a nuanced understanding of real estate dynamics. They know when to push and when to give, leveraging their experience to navigate tricky situations. ➌ Winning bids. Buyer’s agents will strategise to make your offer stand out while ensuring you’re not overpaying, and the negotiations don’t stop at the offer - inspections and repairs often require negotiation, and your agent’s expertise extends to these areas too! #buyersagent #brisbanerealestate #buyersagents #brisbane
