What happens when your dream of buying your first home collides with the realities of changing jobs, working overseas, or stretching your budget? In this episode, we’re joined by Chris Bates, one of Australia’s top mortgage brokers and co-founder at Blusk, to tackle these challenges head-on with practical advice and real-world examples to guide you through some of the common challenges of first-home buying. We start by addressing a common concern: how job changes impact your loan eligibility. Chris explains how banks assess different employment situations, including probation periods, career shifts, and even casual or part-time roles. Next, we dive into expat lending, a topic many Australians working abroad grapple with. We then explore the trade-offs between using first-home buyer grants and maximising borrowing power by purchasing an investment property. Finally, we talk about budget-stretching tips, including buying unrenovated properties, considering nearby suburbs, and keeping financial buffers. Chris also dives into the benefits of lender’s mortgage insurance, showing how it can be a valuable tool for first-home buyers when used strategically. Tune in to get clear, practical answers and build the knowledge you need to approach your first home purchase with peace of mind! Episode Highlights: 00:00 - Introduction 01:21 - How long should I work at my new job to qualify for a first-time home loan? 05:58 - How much of a disadvantage is it to apply for a mortgage as an expat? 10:51 - What’s the smarter choice: higher borrowing power or first-home incentives? 16:09 - Does renting out spare rooms help increase loan capacity? 22:32 - Is it better to buy a house now or after finishing my career change? 36:42 - Chris Bates’ first home buyer property dumbo Resources: FREE MINI COURSE: How to price property like a professional https://www.homebuyeracademy.com.au/freecourse Meet our recommended mortgage brokers at Home Buyer Academy https://homebuyeracademy.com.au/brokers Visit our website https://www.homebuyeracademy.com.au/ Join our Facebook Group to get access to free monthly live Q&A sessions https://www.facebook.com/groups/yourfirsthomebuyerguideaustralia Learn how to buy property without making a mistake with our ultimate 10-step online course for first time home buyers https://homebuyeracademy.com.au/YFHBG If you have any questions or would like to be featured on our show, contact us at: Your First Home Buyer Guide Podcast support@homebuyeracademy.com.au Looking for a Sydney Buyers Agent? https://www.gooddeeds.com.au Work with Veronica: https://www.veronicamorgan.com.au Looking for a Brisbane Buyers Agent? https://www.propertypursuit.com.au/ Work with Meighan: https://www.linkedin.com/in/meighanwells/ If you enjoyed today’s podcast, don’t forget to subscribe, rate, and share the show!

Pete's top 3 property investment tips for 2025

Australian Property Podcast

Play Episode Listen Later Jan 4, 2025 25:49


Topics covered today: 1 – Turn yourself into a property pro Went to a live event, Modern Wisdom with Chris Williamson. While it mostly targets creatives and artists, some of the messaging hit home. Property investment is a business, in effect, and you should aim to treat it accordingly. Different personality types. But, should still take a professional approach to mapping out your investment strategy for the decade ahead at least. What does this mean in practice: A 10-year property plan with balance sheet and P&L  Some of my most successful clients over the past decade have included those who take massive action, and those who are really across their strategy and the cashflows etc. 2 – Book and call with a broker or lending professional Property is a game of finance with houses in the middle. We've been through a very unusual period for lending. Interest rates fell to unprecedented lows and have now rebounded to contractionary settings. Many borrowers are paying more than they need to as banks aim to claw back returns. Lending assessment buffers are tight but this doesn't always apply to refinancing. Think a decade ahead and get buffers/offsets in place. Need to have a strategy which makes you unbreakable. 3 – Think in decade chunks Media commentary is now daily, focus is on clicks.  But a full property cycle might take 7 to 10 years to play through. What happens over the course of a week probably has very little bearing on the prospects for a property investment over a decade time horizon. Our key investing years might be, for most people, between the ages of 25 and 65, so about 3 or decades.  Could be 4 to 6 full property cycles, if not more if you invest in different cities, states, or countries.  If you aim to invest for 20, 30, 40 years or longer, then there will be summer and winter seasons. High and low interest inflation, high and low interest rates, undersupply and overbuilding, high and low vacancy rates.  So you need to think about long-term fundamentals.  4 – Wrap It's an interesting time for property investment. In 2025 we will have high population growth, a chronic housing shortage and falling interest rates. All good fundamentals for property. Yet, as with every decade, there will be those who succeed and those who fail to progress as they hoped. The best way to ensure you're in the former group and not the latter is by taking a more professional approach to your investing to managing risk, and take a sensible approach for the decade ahead, with the appropriate buffers in place.

Topics covered today: In this episode Pete and Chris discussed their 2024 highlights Some of the major trends we observed in the Aussie property market in 2024 included: Perth and Adelaide have boomed, and Brisbane listings were so low all year. How did interest rate movements impact the market throughout the year? Not as much as we thought. It was a complex web of trends, overall, and not as simple as people thought at the beginning of the year. 1. What Pete and Chris learned in 2024, and some challenges faced by the property market A key lesson for us – don't get too stuck on Level 1 thinking. It's a complicated market sometimes The most significant challenges the property market faced last year: Construction costs were very high, and developer insolvencies hit 3,000. Housing supply struggled all year. 2. 2025 outlook and insights from Pete and Chris Looking forward to 2025, our main predictions for the Australian property market: Slower price growth, but solid performance, overall. Melbourne is set to rebound due to relative affordability versus other capital cities. How we see the interest rate environment evolving, and how this will impact the market: Interest rates to fall to around 3.5%, APRA change to ease lending assessment buffers, and more bank competition for customers. This should boost buyer activity into an undersupplied market. Particular areas or regions in Australia that might offer the best investment opportunities in 2025: Melbourne, Newcastle, Brisbane, Central Coast, and Sunshine Coast. Key trends to shape 2025: Election year could see some changes to population policy, and property market policy. Superannuation for housing (Coalition) and Build to Rent (Labor). Slower population growth overall, as visa issuance for international students slows down. 3. Our advice for homebuyers and investors in 2025 Risks we believe homebuyers and investors should be cautious of in 2025: Construction and off the plan risks. Keep a buffer in case interest rates don't fall. 4. Closing reflections from Pete and Chris Summing up in 2024: Resilience! An interesting year of lessons. Intergenerational wealth and a struggle for developers. A complex market. Other advice for listeners as they plan their property investment strategies for the coming year: Get a property plan done!

We explore the financial and competitive advantages for international student-athletes, showcasing success stories from Argentina and Australia that demonstrate how junior colleges can be a wonderful fit.Throughout their conversation, Chris and Coach Buffington also dive into the rewarding yet challenging dynamics of coaching multicultural teams and building a family-like atmosphere that integrates players from diverse backgrounds.

Ever wondered if changing jobs or working overseas could throw a wrench in your plans to buy a home? In this episode, we dive into some of the most common questions we hear from homebuyers. How long do you need to stay in a new job before applying for a loan? What's the deal with borrowing as an expat? And does timing your property purchase around a career change make sense? There's a lot to unpack here, and the answers might surprise you. We also dig into a tricky one: Should you push your borrowing capacity to get a better-quality property but miss out on the first-home buyer grants? Or is it better to take advantage of those grants and settle for a slightly lower-tier asset? It's not always an easy decision, but we break down the pros and cons to help you weigh it up. If you've ever thought about renting out rooms to help you afford a better property or buying an investment property you plan to live in later, this episode will get you thinking. These ideas can work, but they come with their own set of challenges—like tax headaches and cash flow risks—that you'll want to understand before jumping in. We also talk about the importance of buffers and why lenders' mortgage insurance can sometimes be a good thing, even if it feels counterintuitive. For first-home buyers especially, having a bit of breathing room in your finances can make all the difference. This episode is packed with real-world advice and examples, so if you're in the thick of buying your first home or even your next one, you'll want to tune in for this one.

John talks with Chris Bates about one of Taiwan's greatest ever martial artists, Hong Yixiang 洪懿祥 (1925–1993). Hong was Taiwan's foremost master of the Chinese internal martial arts (which consist of baguazhang 八卦掌, xingyiquan 形意拳 and taijiquan 太極拳.) The Hong family learnt these fighting forms from exiled Mainlanders who fled the communists in the late 1940s. These skills were put to good use in dealing with local gangsters in the turbulent post-WWII years in Taipei. Chris, who trained with Hong and his sons, translated his biography “Blurred Boundaries,” written by son Hong Ze-han, into English. Like the book, this Formosa Files episode is not just a conversation about kung fu, but a rich cultural dive down little-known alleys.   (Chris previously spoke with John about his own martial arts odyssey in Taiwan: “Bonus Episode: Way of the Warrior - Martial Arts Master Chris Bates,” May 25, 2023. )
