Why Chinese property worries affect us all
Andreas Lundberg
September 23, 2021
As you’ve probably read, China’s number two property developer, Evergrande, is on the verge of collapse, dragged down by excessive debt and an inability to take on more debt. Evergrande’s woes have helped send the price of iron ore plummeting – not to mention the share prices of our largest miners: BHP, Rio and Fortescue.

Why REA could be a better way to invest in property
Roger Montgomery
August 16, 2021
According to a recent rent report by Domain, gross rental yields have dived to around 4 per cent on the back of soaring property prices.

Roger Montgomery
June 8, 2021
CoreLogic has just reported that national dwelling prices rose by 2.3 per cent in May. That’s an annualised rate of more than 28 per cent.

Roger Montgomery
April 7, 2021
Across Australia, property prices are on a tear, driven for a change by owner-occupiers rather than investors. What’s more, I’m convinced that prices have much further to run, fuelled by low interest rates and supportive government policies. continue…

Why government should not water down responsible lending laws
Andreas Lundberg
March 23, 2021
Last year, in direct contradiction to a key recommendation of the Banking Royal Commission, the Federal Government put forward a proposal to ‘relax’ lending standards by the banks.

Andreas Lundberg
December 9, 2020
A new report by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) has found that, as a whole, Australians are paying too much interest on their mortgages. How much too much? Well, according to a conservative estimate, as a nation we are likely paying at least $10 billion per year more than we need to. Thankfully, there are steps to take to get a better rate. continue…
