In this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, Phil Tarrant sits down with Ben Plohl to explore the rising appeal of regional property investment. With a $10 million portfolio across four states, seasoned investor and buyer's agent Ben has leveraged his background as a chartered accountant to analyse economic trends and identify growth areas. He highlights cities like Albury-Wodonga, Toowoomba, Geelong, Newcastle, and Wagga Wagga as top regional investment picks for 2025 due to their strong infrastructure, diverse economies, and low vacancy rates. Ben said investors should educate themselves and understand local markets, economic diversity, and strategic planning when investing outside capital cities, giving them all the tools they need to make their next investment. The duo then reflects on a broader trend of shifting focus from expensive metros to high-potential regional areas, with government support and growing affordability issues in cities fuelling the shift.

In this insightful webinar, Terry Ryder, founder of Hotspotting, and Tim Graham, Hotspotting's General Manager, analyze the surprises and trends of 2024 in the Australian property market and share their projections for 2025. With decades of combined experience, they provide investors with actionable advice on navigating the coming year. Key Highlights 2024 in Review Defying Predictions: Despite high interest rates and inflationary pressures, property prices rose by an average of 5.53% nationally in 2024. Perth led with an astonishing 18.7% growth, followed by regional Western Australia, Adelaide, and Brisbane. Surprise Winners: Hotspotting's 2024 National Best Buys Report proved remarkably accurate, with 9 out of 10 selected locations achieving growth three times the national average. Shift to Apartments: Demand for attached dwellings surged, driven by affordability and lifestyle preferences, with some unit markets outperforming houses in capital growth. 2025 Projections Second Wind Markets: Regions like the Sunshine Coast, Albury-Wodonga, and Ballarat are emerging from a "pause phase" and are primed for growth, fueled by rising sales volumes and infrastructure developments. Avoid Frenzied Markets: Perth, Adelaide, and regional Queensland hotspots like Townsville are reaching their peaks. Investors should seek opportunities in undervalued markets with long-term growth potential. Surprising Contenders: Cities like Darwin and Launceston, as well as regional Victorian areas, are poised for unexpected growth, offering affordability and strong rental yields. Emerging Trends Affordability Focus: High interest rates are amplifying the appeal of regions with lower entry prices and strong rental yields. Infrastructure Impact: Areas benefiting from large-scale projects, such as Toowoomba and inland rail hubs, continue to attract growth. Changing Investor Mindsets: Long-term strategies and careful market selection are replacing speculative approaches. Special Offers National Top 10 Best Buys Report: Just $249.

In this episode, we meet Josie, a qualified teacher living in the Albury-Wodonga region who shares her journey to motherhood and her two unique birth experiences. Her story highlights the complexities of navigating healthcare across state borders and the resilience required through pregnancy loss, renovation chaos, and building a family.__________ It's no surprise that restful sleep is hard to come by pregnancy. Pillows are a great way to get comfortable at night and if you find one that prevents back sleeping, it can takeaway the stress of waking up on your back. That's why I recommend the Sleepybelly pregnancy pillow. Sleepybelly is the original three-piece adjustable maternity pillow designed to provide peace of mind by encouraging safe side sleeping or while giving your belly some much needed relief.

Rumours of the death of ‘the national property boom' are greatly exaggerated – especially since we didn't have a national property boom in 2024. Rather, over the past 12 months, we have seen differing market cycles in many locations - as is the usual state of play in real estate throughout Australia. Strong property price growth was recorded in Perth, Adelaide, and Brisbane in 2024, but not in Melbourne, Sydney, Canberra, Darwin or Hobart.    Similarly, in the regional areas, there were declining and stagnating markets, as well as some where prices were showing good price growth.   This is situation normal in Australian real estate. It's a big country and real estate markets are very local in nature.   So, a national property boom? We haven't had one. So you ignore headlines declaring that the national property boom is over.   So, what can we expect in residential real estate in 2025? Firstly, the major bank economists will predict price declines in 2025 – as they did at the start of 2023 and again at the start of 2024 - and will be proven wrong yet again because it they fail to understand the basic dynamics that drive prices in residential real estate. Politicians will continue to scapegoat their traditional targets of foreigners (migrants, international students and foreign investors) as well as mum-and-dad Australian investors – and enlist the help of shallow journalists to infer that these cohorts are the cause of all the problems in the housing markets.   The reality is that investors, local and foreign, are not the problem – they are the solution. They hold the keys to solving the housing crisis.   Meanwhile, most State Governments will continue to make the housing crisis worse with anti-investor policies - with the negative ramifications of recent rental reforms to become more apparent as 2025 unfolds. Vacancy rates will remain low, but the rate of rental growth generally will slow because markets have hit a ceiling due to limits in the capacity of tenants to pay more.   However, restrictive rental legislation by various state and territory governments will continue to motivate some investors to sell up – thereby making the rental shortage worse. The Greens will continue to embarrass themselves and lose voter support with anti-investor rants, with the Federal Election due early in the year likely to see their influence reduce even more.   Investors will continue to pile into the frenzied markets, mostly in regional Queensland -however, the smart money will target locations early in the growth cycle, not at the end. Evidence that the Perth market has passed its peak will become more apparent with a similar slowdown forecast for regional WA. The solid economic and market fundamentals in Adelaide means it will continue to show solid growth next year as well as Brisbane and regional Queensland.   Melbourne did not have a good year in 2023 or in 2024, but I believe it will start to rise next year, thanks to the price differential with Sydney and its high population growth. This will occur despite Melbourne having the worst state government and the highest taxes in the nation. Darwin will be targeted by investors and will begin to show some price growth next year, too. More and more indicators are favourable for the Northern Territory capital, with investors seeking its affordable houses and high rental yields. The Exodus to Affordable Lifestyle will continue, boosting many regional markets, as more big city residents seek a different and more affordable way of living, enabled by technology and the ability to work remotely. What we have termed the ‘second-wind markets' will ignite.   These are locations where the market sprinted (with major price growth) from 2022 to 2024, has been catching it breath since then, and now, having got its second wind, is starting to run again.   They include regional cities such as Albury-Wodonga and Tamworth in NSW, the Sunshine Coast and Hervey Bay in Queensland, Bendigo and Ballarat in Victoria, as well as Launceston and Burnie in Tasmania. There will continue to be a lot of conjecture about interest rates next year, but the potential impact of any rate reductions will be largely irrelevant and greatly over-rated by many economists and news media.   As we've learned from the past two years, trends with interest rates are not the major influence on real estate outcomes.   If they were, prices would have fallen everywhere over the past two years.   And that, clearly, has not been the case.

Peter Maxwell Slattery began having extraterrestrial contact experiences at a very early age and has, over the subsequent decades, taken thousands of photos and videos documenting his extraordinary encounters. He has had contact with multiple alien species, both positive and negative, and has been taken on spacecraft on multiple trips into outer space. He has been exposed to military abductions where he has been interrogated by officials about his contact experiences and asked to help them learn about the extraterrestrial phenomenon. In this interview, Slattery discusses the range of his contact experiences and some of the photos and videos he has taken of extraterrestrials, their spacecraft, and covert government craft including black helicopters that he has interacted with. He has written best-selling books that chronicle his experiences and what he has learned about the extraterrestrial phenomenon and its societal impact. He currently operates the Jaya Sanctuary on the border town of Albury-Wodonga between the Australian states of Victoria and New South Wales where visitors can witness and even encounter extraterrestrial visitors.

Real estate consumers tend to place their attention on the markets receiving the most media headlines, which primarily are the ones that have shown the biggest growth in the past month or the latest quarter or year. But that is not the best measure of which locations have been showing the best growth.  To get a better picture of locations that out-perform, you need to look at longer time frames, such as the past THREE years, not the past week or the past month as media tends to do. News media continues to obsess over the Perth market where prices currently are rising the fastest and they tend to imply that this boom will keep on rolling for years to come. It won't. Perth has already had a couple of years of major price growth and there are already signs that the market has peaked. One of the things that would be more useful is for the media to take a broader focus of price performance, to give consumers a more enlightened picture of where the best growth has been. For example, where in Australia have we seen the biggest growth over the past three years? It would no doubt surprise many to learn that there are a dozen regional centres across Australia which have had considerably higher growth since 2021 than Perth – and most of the other capital cities as well. Research published by one of Australia's best real estate analysts, Simon Pressley of Propertyology, shows that the best performers on capital growth over the past three years have been regional cities - and that the best of the capital cities has not been Perth, but Adelaide. So which location has recorded the highest growth in median house prices in the past three years? According to Propertyology, the answer is Bundaberg in Regional Queensland, where the median price has risen 63% in three years. Close behind comes Wagga Wagga in NSW, which has grown 56%. Then we have little-known Gympie near the Sunshine Coast, up 51%, alongside Hervey Bay a little further north in Queensland, which also increased 51%. In fifth place we have the first of the capital cities, Adelaide, which is up 50% on the pricing levels of 2021. Next, in order, we have the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Mandurah in WA, Rockhampton in Queensland, Tamworth in NSW, the Gold Coast in Queensland and Albury-Wodonga at the NSW-Victoria border. In 12th place, up 40% over three years, is Perth. Now, I'm happy to report that every one of those out-performing locations across the nation have featured strongly in our hotspots reports over the past 3-4 years. And we featured them BEFORE that big period of three-year growth started. In the 2020 editions of our National Top 10 Best Buys report, the Sunshine Coast was our top pick – and went on to be a national leader on price growth over three years. In the 2021 editions of Best Buys, Bundaberg, Tamworth, Albury-Wodonga, Wagga Wagga and the Gold Coast, as well as key locations in Adelaide and Perth, all featured in our national top 10 lists – BEFORE the three years of growth happened. And remember that, back in 2020 and early 2021, economists and the media generally were telling us that prices were going to crash everywhere. We simply did NOT agree – and we got it right. This speaks to the essence of intelligent investing – accessing good research reports that tell you where the highest growth will happen BEFORE it happens. NOT diving into markets where the media says prices have grown the most in the past year. That is the essence of BAD investing.  

In our latest episode, we celebrate the 40th anniversary of Sharyn Hill's School of Performing Arts and Creative Expression with a heartfelt conversation featuring its founder, Sharyn Hill. Join host Matt as Sharyn shares her remarkable journey of nurturing young talent in the Albury Wodonga community. Since 1984, Sharyn has helped thousands of children discover their hidden talents, boost their confidence, and apply their newfound skills in all areas of life through lessons in voice, mime, performance, and public speaking.

The latest lending data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics finds that loans to investors in New South Wales in April represented a 44% increase on the same time last year. That's a major jump in buyer demand, but it does not surprise the team at Hotspotting, particularly after the analysis we have done on market trends for the Winter edition of The Price Predictor. Our research shows there is heightened buyer activity in selected locations, both in Sydney and in Regional NSW. The Price Predictor Index finds that some of the nation's regional areas are the leading markets in the nation, including the Wollongong/Shoalhaven region in NSW. In the Winter edition of the PPI, we have nominated the Shoalhaven LGA as the strongest market among the nation's municipalities, while the City of Wollongong also makes our National Top 10. The Price Predictor Index for several years has charted the trend we call The Exodus to Affordable Lifestyle and our latest analysis suggests the demographic drift from the biggest capital cities is still pumping strongly. In some cases, the NSW regional markets of note are what we call “second-wind markets” -locations across Australia which were at the peak of their up-cycles in 2021 and then subsided in 2022 and 2023 – but are now showing signs of embarking on the next up-cycle, with improved activity late in 2023 and early in 2024. A prime example is Byron Bay which previously had a boom which, in reality, overshot true value – with property values doubling in two years. The median house price peaked at $3.5 million in mid-2022, but dropped markedly since to as low as $2.4 million. Now we see evidence in the sales data of a pickup in activity and also the first signs of prices recovering. The strong Albury-Wodonga regional city at the NSW-Victoria border was a boom market until mid-2022 – and now, after a flat period, is showing early signs of revival. The suburb of Albury is one of our National Top 50 Supercharged Suburbs in the Winter edition of The Price Predictor Index. Other standout locations include Newcastle and nearby areas such as Lake Macquarie and Port Stephens. Mid-coast centres like Forster and Taree are also travelling well. In Sydney, the top end is undoubtedly leading the Sydney market while the cheaper areas are struggling to maintain their previously high sales levels. Locations where houses sell for multiple millions of dollars are the strongest clusters for buyer activity, in a Greater Sydney market where sales levels have moderated a little but continue to be solid. Our analysis reveals three stand-out clusters of suburbs where sales activity is most vibrant, all of them at the upper end of the market – the municipalities of Woollahra, Waverley and Bayside. Within these LGAs, suburbs classified as rising markets include Bondi, Darling Point and Paddington. Inner-city areas which have been boosted by strong demand for apartments in the past year or so – Sydney City and the Inner West LGA - continue to generate good buyer demand. Rising suburbs in the City of Sydney include Surry Hills and Woolloomooloo, while Chippendale stands out for its consistency of performance. At the opposite end of the market spectrum, outer ring areas including the municipalities of Blacktown, Hills Shire and Penrith have lost momentum and have significant numbers of suburbs classified as declining markets. This is part of a notable trend nationwide which finds that new development areas are among the struggling markets with sales activity falling. The problems within the housing construction sector are well-documented, with building companies going broke amid rapidly rising costs and shortages of tradespeople and materials. We note that sales levels in the City of Blacktown, which has been a star performer in Sydney in recent years, have faded notably. It's noteworthy that many of the declining suburbs have median house prices well above $1 million and no longer provide relative affordability, including Rouse Hill, The Ponds and Schofields. In The Hills Shire, an even more expensive market in the far north-west, sales activity generally has dropped notably and half its suburbs are now rated as declining markets. They include a number of suburbs which all have median house prices above $1.7 million and in some cases above $2 million. Listings of homes for sale have been trending upwards in the Hills District recently, so low sales volumes cannot be attributed to a shortage of properties. But beyond that hiccup in the outer Sydney market, New South Wales broadly presents as a place that is attracting strong buyer demand, both in Sydney and in regional markets, with an uplift in investor activity a key factor.

I'm about to tell you what's going to happen with property prices this year and I'm going to tell you why. The information real estate buyers MOST want to know is where to buy for superior capital growth, both in the short term and the long term. The problem for investors is that the research companies and the media don't tell us that. They tell us what's recently happened with property prices. They inform us about the past. And while that may be interesting, it doesn't provide us with the really key information: what will happen with prices in the future. That's where Hotspotting comes in. Our proven methodology has a track record of predicting the future successfully and often. And one of our core techniques is used to create the best of our stable of reports: The Price Predictor Index. The underlying principle is really simple but wonderfully effective. We don't spend our time charting price movements - we devote our resources to following what's happening with sales volumes - the number of sales in each location and whether they're rising, flatlining or falling. History tells us that sales activity is a forward indicator of what will happen with prices. And the new Winter edition of the report provides important clues about which markets are rising and which ones are falling. Here are some of the key pieces of market intelligence that our new analysis provides:- The Perth boom has likely peaked and we urge caution for the many investors diving into this market after three years of big price growth. Melbourne prices will perform a lot better in 2024 than they did in the past two years. Some of the regional markets have stepped up as likely national leaders on price growth in the next 12 months. They include places like the Wollongong region, including in particular the Shoalhaven LGA; Gladstone in Central Queensland; and Albury-Wodonga at the Victoria-NSW border. Smaller capital cities which have been weak lately are showing solid signs of recovery and will do better in the next year, including Canberra and Darwin. Some of the iconic markets which had spectacular booms up to 2022 and have been in a correction phase since then, are now showing signs of moving into their next up-cycle. They include Byron Bay, the Sunshine Coast and the Mornington Peninsula. Other former boom markets that look to be heading into another period of growth include Albury-Wodonga, Ballarat and Bendigo in Victoria, Hervey Bay in Queensland and Launceston in Tasmania. Apartment markets in good locations in our biggest cities continue to attract buyers in large numbers with improved capital growth performance - Sydney City and the Inner West nearby are among the stand-outs. The Winter edition of The Price Predictor Index has other priceless intel - including the National Top 50 Supercharged Suburbs list, the 50 most consistent growth markets in the nation, the 10 leading local government areas in Australia and the 50 worst declining markets, the ones to avoid.  From these lists, we nominate the No.1 best supercharged suburb, the nation's most consistent location which is delivering big price growth - and the worst place to buy right now. And, if you want to know what they are, you'll need to get a copy of the report.

On this episode of the podcast I sit down with my second cousin Nick Dempsey, Nick is one of those people you meet and can't help but feel his positivity rub off on you in some way. He has the special ability of seeing the good in everything and can really make you question what you see as a negative or a positive, he is a glass half full kind of person that has made it his mission to help others in whatever way he can. He grew up in Albury/Wodonga and lived a normal rural county life style of playing sports and learning a trade, everything seemed to be going the right direction for Nick until unfortunately on his 21st birthday he dove head first into his family pool, this resulted in C3/4 spinal injury that left Nick as a quadriplegic, since that day Nick has gone through extensive rehab and many ups and downs yet even through all this Nick still sees the world through very positive eyes and uses his story to help inspire and help others that may be struggling in some way in their life. Even though Nick and I are second cousins this was actually the first time we have officially met. Hope you all enjoy the chat and can take something away from it.
