Medien titeln „Hamburg ist bei Touristen so beliebt wie noch nie“. Denn die Stadt eilt von einem Übernachtungsrekord zum nächsten. Tourismus bedeutet jedoch viel mehr als Übernachtungszahlen. Michael Otremba, CEO für Hamburg Tourismus, spricht über das Erfolgsgeheimnis, positive Auswirkung auf die Lebensqualität und warum die Tourismusbranche neu gedacht werden muss.Warum sagen sieben von zehn Menschen in Hamburg, dass der Tourismus Auswirkungen auf die Lebensqualität hat? Haben viele Themen oder Probleme, die man dem Tourismus zuordnet, einen tieferen Ursprung, wie z.B. eine verfehlte Wohnbaupolitik? Warum sollte beim Austausch mit anderen Stakeholdern über Fehler gesprochen werden? Im Gespräch geht es um neue Perspektiven, kulturelle Identität, Bürgerbeteiligung – und darum, warum Tourismus vor allem eines ist: eine gesamtgesellschaftliche Aufgabe. Tourismus ist dabei immer eng mit der Lebensqualität einer Stadt verbunden. Hamburg ist eine lebendige Metropole mit 1,85 Millionen Menschen, die zugleich unglaublich grün ist und eine außergewöhnlich hohe Lebensqualität bietet. Für Otremba zieht dieses besondere Lebensgefühl – die Freiheit und Leichtigkeit der Stadt – Besucher:innen wie auch Einheimische gleichermaßen an. Warum ihr reinhören solltet:Tourismus jenseits von Bettenzahlen: Warum Übernachtungszahlen nur einen Teil der Wahrheit zeigen – und wie Tagestourismus, private Unterkünfte und die wirtschaftlichen Effekte oft unterschätzt werden.Städtemarketing neu gedacht: Warum erfolgreiche Tourismusstrategien heute auf Dialog, Community und kulturelle Teilhabe setzen – und welche Rolle Orte wie die Elbphilharmonie spielen.Reisen verändert sich: Warum Reisen von Familien sorgfältiger geplant werden – und welche Auswirkungen das auf die Wertschöpfung hat.Blick über den Tellerrand: Warum die City Destinations Alliance versucht von Mitgliedern zu lernen und nicht nur auf die Gäste, sondern auch auf Einheimische zu schauen.

Australia's housing market is at a crossroads. For first-home buyers, the dream of ownership has never felt further away – with deposits taking more than 8 years to save and mortgage repayments eating up over half of disposable incomes. Yet, at the same time, buyer demand is powering ahead, clearance rates are hitting multi-year highs, and spring is shaping up to be supercharged. How can both of these things be true? And what does it mean for you – whether you're buying, renting, or investing?

NDR Info - Zwischen Hamburg und Haiti

„Hast du Kairo nicht erblickt, so hast du die Welt nicht gesehen.“, schreibt der arabische Philosoph Muhammed Abu Hamed im Jahr 1457. So gilt Kairo, seit jeher als „Mutter aller Städte“. Im Ballungsraum mit über 25 Millionen Einwohnern ist sie eine der wichtigsten Metropolen der arabischen und afrikanischen Welt. Denn Kairo ist die Welt - oder besser: Kairo ist viele Welten: Die berühmte Altstadt, auch Islamisches Kairo genannt, seit 1979 UNESCO Weltkulturerbe, birgt Schätze und Kuriositäten ägyptischer Lebens- und Architekturgeschichte. Forschende graben nun erstmalig in diesem Teil der Geschichte des Pharaonenlandes. Und die lokale Bevölkerung versucht den Spagat zwischen Erhalt jahrtausendalter Bauwerke und der Bewahrung ihrer alltäglicher Lebenskultur im mittelalterlichen Kairo. Die Stadt ist seit Jahrtausenden Zufluchtsort ausländischer Migration. So auch aktuell: Seit dem Beginn des Krieges im Sudan, im Frühjahr 2023, sind über eine Million Menschen nach Ägypten geflohen. Die meisten von ihnen nach Kairo. Oft kommen sie illegal durch die Wüste und starten hier ins Ungewisse. Gleichzeitig ist die Flucht nach Kairo die Chance eines Neubeginns. Gerade für die sudanesische Kunst- und Kulturszene, die sich hier im Exil in Ägyptens Hauptstadt, erstmalig außerhalb ihres Landes zeigt und versucht sich hier ein neues Leben aufzubauen. Der muslimische Fastenmonat Ramadan wird in Kairo wie nirgends sonst in der arabischen Welt zelebriert. Der Beginn dieses heiligen Monats ergibt sich seit Jahrhunderten aus dem islamischen Mondkalender – Beginn und Ende bestimmt der Mond. Und zentral in dieser Zeit: Das Teilen mit denen, die weniger haben. So lädt Ägyptens Metropole ein – zu entdecken, zu wachsen und von ihrem herzlichen Chaos umarmt zu werden. Für das NDR-Feature aus Kairo, hat Max-Marian Unger sechs Monate in Ägypten recherchiert.

In meinem Interview mit Franziska Rengger sprechen wir über ihr Leben für den Tanz. Mit sechs Jahren sieht sie in Basel den Nussknacker und ist sofort von der Zuckerfee verzaubert. Dort erlebt sie zum ersten Mal, was es heißt zu fallen – und wieder aufzustehen. Ihr Wunsch, selbst Ballett zu tanzen, ist geweckt, und ihre Eltern unterstützen sie dabei, diesen Traum zu verwirklichen.Franziska erzählt von ihren ersten Auftritten und dem Weg, der sie mit zwölf Jahren an die neu gegründete Ballett-Berufsschule in Zürich führt. Diese Zeit – und besonders ihre Mentorin – prägt sie nachhaltig. Vier Jahre später besteht sie die Aufnahmeprüfung an der Royal Ballet School in London und zieht in die englische Metropole. Wir sprechen darüber, was sie dort erlebte und wie es dazu kam, dass sie während eines Familienurlaubs in Berlin spontan in einer Company mittanzte. Der Leiter war begeistert und bot ihr direkt einen Hospitantenvertrag an.Mit nur 17 Jahren findet sich Franziska in der Berliner Compagnie zurecht, lernt schnell und erhält schon bald die Chance, im Nussknacker zu tanzen. Kurz darauf folgt ein Vertrag für die nächste Saison, und in wenigen Jahren interpretiert sie alle großen Klassiker. Doch als die Oper einen neuen Tanzdirektor bekommt, verändert sich das Klima. Franziska gerät in eine Essstörung und beschließt, diesen Weg nicht weiterzugehen.Sie stellt sich grundlegenden Fragen und ihren eigenen Glaubenssätzen. Nach verschiedenen Bewerbungen wechselt sie schließlich die Seite und beginnt eine Ausbildung zur Tanzpädagogin. Im Jahr 2000 eröffnet sie ihr eigenes Tanz- und Ballettstudio Zehlendorf, das sie nach ihren eigenen Vorstellungen aufbaut. Am 12. Oktober feiert sie das 25-jährige Jubiläum ihres Studios mit einer besonderen Tanzgala in der Urania Berlin – viele ehemalige Schüler reisen aus aller Welt an, um mitzutanzen.Im Gespräch erklärt Franziska, warum Tanz weit mehr ist als Bewegung: wie er Persönlichkeitsentwicklung fördert und echten Zusammenhalt schafft.Möchtest du mehr über Franziska und ihre Arbeit erfahren?

In today's podcast, we are going to do something a little different. You see, one of the common questions I get asked is, “Michael, what's your net worth?” It's a question people are curious about—and I get why. However, rather than simply providing you with a number, I want to take you behind the scenes and share the principles, strategies, and mindset that have helped me achieve the financial freedom I enjoy today. We'll talk about the stages of wealth creation, the power of leverage, and the lessons I've learned—sometimes the hard way—over the last five decades in property. And joining me for this conversation is Brett Warren, Director at Metropole, who will turn the tables and ask me the questions many of you have been wondering about. And the intention of today's show is not to gloat, boast or show off, but to inspire you to build your own net worth.   Takeaways  ·         The pursuit of the easy often leads to more challenging tasks. ·         Wealth is not just about money; it includes health and relationships. ·         Net worth is a measure of financial health, not just income. ·         Investing is a long-term journey that requires patience and a strategic approach. ·         Leverage can be applied in various forms: time, relationships, mindset, and money. ·         Many investors focus too heavily on cash flow rather than asset growth. ·         A strategic plan is crucial for achieving success in property investment. ·         Mistakes in early investments can provide valuable lessons. ·         A positive mindset plays a crucial role in achieving financial success. ·         Surrounding yourself with successful individuals can accelerate your journey.   Chapters    00:00 Behind the Scenes of Financial Freedom 01:24 Understanding True Wealth 06:45 Stages of Wealth Creation 09:26 Common Misconceptions in Wealth Building 14:42 Learning from Mistakes 20:09 Mindset and Wealth Building 23:00 Taking Action Towards Wealth   Links and Resources:   Answer this week's trivia question here- www.PropertyTrivia.com.au ·         Win a hard copy of Michael Yardney's Guide to Investing ·         Everyone wins a copy of a fully updated property report – What's ahead for property for 2026 and beyond.   Get the team at Metropole to help build your personal Strategic Property Plan.

What if I told you that a $1 million property today could be worth $8 million in 30 years? Sounds unbelievable, right? It's the kind of projection that makes people question whether Australia's property market can really keep growing the way it has for the past 45 years. After all, with housing affordability constantly in the headlines and talk of “property bubbles,” isn't 7% annual growth, meaning property value double every 10 years, a thing of the past? Today I'm joined by Stuart Wemyss, a respected financial advisor and author who has written an excellent blog unpacking this very topic: “Can annual property growth persist at 7%?”  It's a question he's been getting from clients, and the answer isn't as simple as yes or no. Today, we're going to explore what really drives property prices, whether growth at that rate is sustainable, and most importantly, what it means for you as a property investor in today's market.   Takeaways  ·         Property values have historically grown at about 7% annually. ·         Inflation has a significant impact on real property growth rates. ·         Not all properties will experience the same growth rates. ·         Affordability is a growing concern for first home buyers. ·         Regional markets have demonstrated resilience and growth during the COVID-19 pandemic. ·         Interest rates play a crucial role in property market dynamics. ·         Wealth transfer from baby boomers will impact property values. ·         Government incentives can create short-term price increases. ·         Investors should focus on locations with strong income growth. ·         Understanding market fundamentals is key to successful property investment.   Chapters    00:00 Understanding Property Value Growth 10:33 The Impact of Inflation on Property Prices 17:46 Regional vs. Capital City Property Markets 24:46 Factors Influencing Future Property Investments   Links and Resources:   Answer this week's trivia question here- www.PropertyTrivia.com.au ·         Win a hard copy of Michael Yardney's Guide to Investing ·         Everyone wins a copy of a fully updated property report – What's ahead for property for 2026 and beyond.     Michael Yardney – Subscribe to my Property Update newsletter here    Get the team at Metropole to help build your personal Strategic Property Plan Click here and have a chat with us   Stuart Wemyss – Prosolution Private Clients     Get a bundle of free reports and eBooks – www.PodcastBonus.com.au Also, please subscribe to my other podcast Demographics Decoded with Simon Kuestenmacher – just look for  Demographics Decoded wherever you are listening to this podcast and subscribe so each week we can unveil the trends shaping your future.

Australia's housing market is under pressure from many directions, but one of the most overlooked barriers is stamp duty. Once a relatively modest transaction cost, stamp duty has ballooned into one of the biggest financial hurdles for homebuyers. Just to give you an idea – in Sydney, stamp duty on a median-priced house has gone from around 45% of a household's disposable income in 2000 to 120% today. And it's not just buyers who are suffering. Stamp duty distorts housing decisions, locks people into homes that no longer suit them, and acts as a handbrake on productivity. Today, I'm joined by Dr Nicola Powell, Chief of Research and Economics at Domain, whose recent report makes a compelling case for replacing stamp duty with a fairer, broad-based land tax. Whether you're a property investor, a home buyer, or just somebody who's interested in the housing markets, I'm sure today's chat with Dr Nicola Powell will give you a new perspective as I also want to discuss their latest report on who has profited from property over the last few years.   Takeaways  ·         A growth mindset is essential for success in property investment. ·         Stamp duty presents significant financial barriers for home buyers and investors. ·         The burden of stamp duty has increased over time, affecting housing mobility. ·         Capital gains tax on family homes could discourage movement and exacerbate housing issues. ·         Stamp duty is economically inefficient, costing more in lost activity than it raises. ·         Housing misallocation is a significant issue in Australia, with many living in homes that exceed their needs. ·         Consumer confidence is a key driver of property market trends and price growth. ·         Longer holding periods for properties generally lead to greater capital gains. ·         Location plays a crucial role in property investment success. ·         Reform of stamp duty is necessary for improving housing mobility and economic productivity.     Chapters  01:58 Introduction 05:14 Australians Holding Their Homes for Longer 08:07 How Stamp Duty Deters People from Moving 09:56 The Inefficiency of a Stamp Duty 11:34 The Caveats of a Stamp Duty Reform 14:02 Recent Domain Report Results 18:35 The Confidence has Come Back into the Market   Links and Resources:   Answer this week's trivia question here- www.PropertyTrivia.com.au ·         Win a hard copy of Michael Yardney's Guide to Investing Successfully.  Everyone wins a copy of a fully updated property report – What's ahead for property for 2026 and beyond.     Get the team at Metropole to help build your personal Strategic Property Plan Click here and have a chat with us   Michael Yardney – Subscribe to my Property Update newsletter here   Dr Nicola Powell, Chief of Research and Economics at Domain  https://www.domain.com.au/news/author/dr-nicola-powell/   Domain's property profit and loss report:https://www.domain.com.au/research/profit-and-loss-report-1410018/ Domain's Stamp Duty suggestions: https://propertyupdate.com.au/stamp-duty-is-holding-australia-back-why-we-need-bold-reform/?   Get a bundle of eBooks and Reports at www.PodcastBonus.com.au     Also, please subscribe to my other podcast Demographics Decoded with Simon Kuestenmacher – just look for  Demographics Decoded wherever you are listening to this podcast and subscribe so each week we can unveil the trends shaping your future.

This winter has shaped up as the strongest property market we've seen in a long time, with strong buyer activity and rising confidence cutting through the usual seasonal slowdown. In today's show Dr. Andrew Wilson and I discuss how results have been far from uniform – Sydney is surging ahead with particularly strong performance, while conditions across the other capitals are more varied, reminding us just how segmented Australia's housing markets really are. We explore the impact of government initiatives for first home buyers, the performance of various regional markets, and the implications of inflation and interest rates on housing prices. The conversation concludes with an optimistic outlook for the housing market as it heads into the spring selling season.   Takeaways  ·         Interest rates have been cut, leading to increased buyer activity. ·         The property market is fragmented, with varying performance across regions. ·         Government schemes for first home buyers are expected to boost demand. ·         Brisbane is showing extraordinary growth in property prices. ·         Melbourne's market is recovering, particularly in the prestige segment. ·         Inflation concerns may impact future interest rate decisions. ·         The spring selling season is typically the strongest for property sales. ·         Lower interest rates are driving positive growth in the housing market. ·         The national median house price has seen consistent monthly rises. ·         Market conditions suggest a potential for double-digit growth in some areas.     Chapters  01:07 Introduction 01:45 Introduction to the Winter Property Market 04:02 Quarterly Median House Prices 09:57 Quarterly Median Unit Prices 13:02 First Home Owner Deposit Scheme 14:39 Property Values Forecast 17:14 Conclusions and Future Predictions   Links and Resources:   Answer this week's trivia question here- www.PropertyTrivia.com.au ·         Win a hard copy of Michael Yardney's Guide to Investing. ·          Everyone wins a copy of a fully updated property report – What's ahead for property for 2026 and beyond.   Get a bundle of eBooks and Reports at www.PodcastBonus.com.au   Get the team at Metropole to help build your personal Strategic Property Plan Click here and have a chat with us   Michael Yardney – Subscribe to my Property Update newsletter here    Also, please subscribe to my other podcast Demographics Decoded with Simon Kuestenmacher – just look for  Demographics Decoded wherever you are listening to this podcast and subscribe so each week we can unveil the trends shaping your future.

Have you ever looked at a tired old property and thought, “There's potential there,” but weren't quite sure what to do with it? Well, today's show could be the spark you need. Because we're talking about one of the most powerful – and underutilised – strategies for building wealth through property: strategic renovation. In a world where construction costs are soaring and affordability is stretched, more investors are realising that they don't have to wait for the market to deliver capital growth – they can manufacture it themselves. And joining me to unpack this is Greg Hankinson – property renovations and development expert and director of Metropole Developments. Greg's seen it all – from simple kitchen facelifts to full-scale value-add renovations through to medium density developments, and he's here to share his experience, tips, and insights to help you make your next investment a profitable one. We talk through the key fundamentals of a profitable renovation, how to assess a property's potential, the pros and cons of reno vs. new build, and how many successful developers started by simply buying, renovating, and holding.   Takeaways  ·         You can create wealth through renovations, not just market appreciation. ·         The renovation process requires careful planning and understanding of costs. ·         Successful renovations can lead to significant increases in property value. ·         It's essential to identify properties with renovation potential. ·         Avoid common mistakes like overcapitalizing or DIYing without experience. ·         Understanding local regulations and permits is crucial for renovations. ·         Market conditions can affect the feasibility of renovation projects. ·         Investing in renovations can provide better rental yields and lower vacancy rates. ·         A strategic approach to property investment is necessary for long-term success.   Chapters  00:00 Unlocking Property Potential through Strategic Renovations 01:56 Introduction to Renovations and Property Development 04:43 Understanding the Profitability of Renovations 10:12 Financing Renovations and Building Equity 12:29 Common Mistakes in Renovation Projects 17:57 Assessing Renovation Potential in Properties 20:36 Opportunities in the Current Market 23:15 Conclusion and Future Steps in Property Development   Answer this week's trivia question here- www.PropertyTrivia.com.au ·         Win a hard copy of Michael Yardney's Guide to Investing ·         Everyone wins a copy of a fully updated property report – What's ahead for property for 2026 and beyond   Join us at the Ultimate Property Development Workshop in Melbourne on November 8th Click here for all the details https://realestateworkshop.com.au/   Greg Hankinson -  Director, Metropole Constructions    Interested in getting involved at the “wholesale” end of the property market?

Imagine inviting thousands of people to a party… but forgetting to organise enough food, chairs, or bathrooms. That's essentially what Australia is doing by ramping up migration while failing to plan for the housing and infrastructure to support it. Today, Simon Kuestenmacher and I discuss why we can't keep separating housing policy from migration policy. The conversation around our housing crisis is often framed around interest rates, investors, or planning delays. But there's a critical dimension we keep avoiding: Australia's housing and migration policies are completely out of sync, and this is causing systemic damage.   Takeaways  ·         Australia is experiencing a housing crisis due to rapid migration without adequate infrastructure. ·         Every decision contributes to the future we build, akin to laying bricks in a house. ·         The disconnect between housing and migration policies is creating significant challenges. ·         Young people and low-income earners are increasingly priced out of the housing market. ·         Government policies need to be proactive rather than reactive to address housing shortages. ·         The current planning system is outdated and hinders timely housing development. ·         Property taxes are a major contributor to housing unaffordability. ·         A national housing target linked to migration levels could stabilize the market. ·         Lessons from other countries show the importance of strategic migration policies. ·         Long-term planning is essential for sustainable urban development and infrastructure.     Chapters  00:00 - Migration Without Infrastructure 04:01 - What's been happening to immigration 08:43 - Property Taxes 09:00 - Housing Affordability Crisis 15:48 - Housing Demand Caused by the Migration 24:52 - Infrastructure Planning Area 33:55 - Final Thoughts   Links and Resources:   Answer this week's trivia question here- www.PropertyTrivia.com.au ·         Win a hard copy of Michael Yardney's Guide to Investing Successfully ·         Every entry receives a copy of a fully updated Michael Yardney Property Report   Michael Yardney Get the team at Metropole to help build your personal Strategic Property Plan Click here and have a chat with us   Simon Kuestenmacher: Australia's leading demographer and partner in the Demographics Group   Get a bundle of eBooks and Reports at www.PodcastBonus.com.au   Also, please subscribe to my other podcast, Demographics Decoded with Simon Kuestenmacher – just look for Demographics Decoded wherever you are listening to this podcast and subscribe so each week we can unveil the trends shaping your future.

What happens when the Great Australian Dream becomes a financial nightmare? In 2025, buying your first home in Australia has become less of a rite of passage and more of a high-stakes gamble.

There's a lot of noise out there right now — the media, politicians, and even Sunday BBQ conversations seem to revolve around one central villain: the property investor. Apparently, we're to blame for housing unaffordability, rising rents, and locking young people out of the market. But is that really fair? Because when you scratch below the surface, you realise that property investors are not the problem — in fact, we're a critical part of the housing solution. Today I'm joined by Brett Warren, National Director of Metropole Property Strategists, and we have a frank conversation about why property investors are essential to Australia's housing market — and what people get so wrong about us. We talk about how investors house millions of Aussies, how much we contribute in taxes, and why policy decisions that punish investors could end up hurting the very people they're supposed to help. If you're an investor feeling misunderstood or simply curious about how the system really works, you're going to get a lot out of today's show.   Takeaways  ·         Property investors are often blamed for housing unaffordability, but this narrative is misleading. ·         Investors play a crucial role in providing rental accommodation for many Australians. ·         The majority of property investors own one or two properties, not large portfolios. ·         Government policies significantly impact the housing market and investor activity. ·         Investors contribute over $40 billion annually in taxes to the Australian economy. ·         The media often presents a one-sided view of property investment. ·         There is a growing need for more affordable housing options in Australia. ·         Investors are not just wealthy moguls; they are everyday Australians seeking financial security. ·         The future of property investment requires a fairer tax policy and more supply. ·         Understanding the long-term fundamentals of property investment is essential for success.   Chapters  00:00 The Misunderstood Property Investor 00:54 The Role of Investors in Housing Solutions 01:37 The Anti-Investor Sentiment 04:16 The Role of Property Investors 07:05 Understanding Rental Dynamics 09:51 The Financial Contributions of Investors 12:43 The Future of Property Investment 15:13 Navigating the Current Market 18:03 The Importance of Long-Term Planning   Links and Resources:   Answer this week's trivia question here- www.PropertyTrivia.com.au ·        Win a hard copy of How to Grow a Multi-Million Dollar Property Portfolio – in your spare time. ·        Everyone wins a copy of a fully updated property report – What's ahead for property for 2025 and beyond.   Get the team at Metropole to help build your personal Strategic Property Plan Click here and have a chat with us Michael Yardney – Subscribe to my Property Update newsletter here    Brett Warren - National Director of Property at Metropole   Get a bundle of eBooks and Reports at www.PodcastBonus.com.au   Also, please subscribe to my other podcast Demographics Decoded with Simon Kuestenmacher – just look for Demographics Decoded wherever you are listening to this podcast and subscribe so each week we can unveil the trends shaping your future.

Have you ever wondered why some people seem to effortlessly build wealth through real estate while others spend their entire lives working hard, only to end up financially stuck? The truth is that most Australians won't ever achieve genuine financial independence. Sure, they'll retire... eventually. But for many, that just means swapping full-time work for full-time worry — especially with rising living costs, uncertain super balances, and a whole lot of financial unknowns. But there's a group that does break free. And they tend to have one thing in common: they invest in property strategically. In today's show, Brett Warren — National Director of Property at Metropole — and I unpack why property investors develop financial freedom when so many others don't.   Takeaways  ·         Property investment is a long-term business. ·         Wealth isn't built overnight; it takes discipline. ·         You need a plan, not just a postcode. ·         If you don't learn to make money while you sleep, you'll never become wealthy. ·         Property gives you leverage like no other asset class. ·         The media keeps most people just above broke. ·         Investors use capital, not time, to build wealth. ·         You can outperform the averages with the right knowledge. ·         It's about making hard decisions now for an easier future.     Chapters  00:00 The Wealth Gap: Understanding Financial Independence 00:28 Strategic Property Investment: The Key to Freedom 00:55 Mindsets and Strategies for Financial Success 01:49 The Quest for Financial Independence 04:16 Understanding the Cash Flow Quadrant 07:04 The Importance of Financial Literacy 09:58 Investing in Property: A Viable Strategy 12:46 Common Pitfalls for New Investors 15:33 The Role of Mindset in Wealth Building 18:00 Long-Term Planning for Financial Freedom 21:12 Current Market Trends and Opportunities   Links and Resources:   Answer this week's trivia question here- www.PropertyTrivia.com.au ·        Win a hard copy of How to Grow a Multi-Million Dollar Property Portfolio – in your spare time. ·        Everyone wins a copy of a fully updated property report – What's ahead for property for 2025 and beyond.   Get the team at Metropole to help build your personal Strategic Property Plan. Click here and have a chat with us Michael Yardney – Subscribe to my Property Update newsletter here   Brett Warren - National Director of Property at Metropole   Get a bundle of eBooks and Reports at www.PodcastBonus.com.au   Also, please subscribe to my other podcast Demographics Decoded with Simon Kuestenmacher – just look for Demographics Decoded wherever you are listening to this podcast and subscribe so each week we can unveil the trends shaping your future.

Have you noticed how Australia's property market seems to have roared back to life recently? After a sluggish 2024, Domain's latest House Price Report shows all eight capital cities recorded house price growth in the June quarter – for the first time in four years. And it's not just houses. Unit prices are surging too, often outpacing houses as buyers chase affordability. So what's behind this rebound? Rate cuts, increased demand, and a lingering supply shortage have all played a role. But is this recovery sustainable? Will further rate cuts continue to fuel prices, or are there headwinds ahead? To help us unpack this, I'm joined by Dr Nicola Powell, Chief of Research and Economics at Domain.  She'll share insights from Domain's June Quarter House Price Report and explain what these trends mean for buyers, sellers, and investors alike.

Today, women live longer than men, but retire with far less money. And despite all the progress we've made, Australia's gender wealth gap remains stubbornly wide. Today I'm joined by Sarah Megginson, money expert and Head of Editorial at Finder, to unpack the insights from their 2025 State of Women's Wealth Report. We explore why women continue to fall behind financially, what drives the wealth gap beyond pay inequality, and most importantly, what women (and men) can do about it. You might be thinking, "Well, I'm not a woman — why does this affect me?" I think you really should listen to today's show because financial security isn't just about individuals. It's about families. Communities. Generations. When women build wealth, everyone benefits: More kids grow up in financially secure homes. More wealth gets reinvested into our economy. More retirees live independently, not dependent on government handouts. This is all about building a stronger, fairer, wealthier Australia.   Takeaways  ·         Women hold 40% less net wealth than men. ·         The gender pay gap begins in primary school. ·         Women are more likely to work part-time, affecting their superannuation. ·         Education is crucial for financial empowerment. ·         Cultural shifts are changing financial goals for younger generations. ·         The sandwich generation faces unique financial challenges. ·         Women over 50 are at a higher risk of homelessness. ·         Negotiating pay remains a hurdle for women. ·         Small financial steps can lead to significant changes. ·         Parents play a vital role in shaping children's financial attitudes.   Chapters  00:00 Introduction to Women's Wealth Report 04:36 Understanding the Gender Wealth Gap 07:28 The Impact of Career Breaks on Women's Finances 13:04 The Role of Parenting in Financial Education 18:46 The Sandwich Generation: Balancing Care and Career 21:25 Risk of Homelessness for Women Over 50 24:14 Taking Control of Your Financial Future 29:29 Empowering Women to Manage Money   Links and Resources:   Answer this week's trivia question here- www.PropertyTrivia.com.au ·         Win a hard copy of How to Grow a Multi-Million Dollar Property Portfolio – in your spare time. ·         Everyone wins a copy of a fully updated property report – What's ahead for property for 2025 and beyond.   Finder's State of Women's Wealth Report https://www.finder.com.au/insights/state-of-womens-wealth-report-2025  Sarah Megginson - money expert and Head of Editorial at Finder https://www.finder.com.au/author/sarahmegginson  Get the team at Metropole to help build your personal Strategic Property Plan Click here and have a chat with us Michael Yardney – Subscribe to my Property Update newsletter here    Get a bundle of eBooks and Reports at www.PodcastBonus.com.au

We've all heard the phrase “rent money is dead money,” right? But is it really? As property prices surge and affordability challenges mount—especially for younger Australians—a growing number of people are turning to an alternative path: rentvesting. That's where you rent the home you live in and invest in a property elsewhere. Is this just a clever workaround, or is it a genuinely smart wealth-building strategy? In today's episode I'm joined once again by Stuart Wemyss to explore this in depth. And even if you're not particularly interested in rentvesting, I'm sure many of the investment principles Stuart and I will be discussing today will be of benefit to everyone interested in property.   Takeaways  ·         Rent-vesting allows flexibility in property investment. ·         Owning a home can provide long-term financial security. ·         Demographic shifts are changing home ownership trends. ·         Tax implications play a significant role in property decisions. ·         Rent-vesting may not suit everyone financially. ·         Understanding personal goals is crucial in property investment. ·         Long-term strategies are essential for financial success. ·         Common mistakes in rent-vesting can derail financial goals. ·         The importance of a holistic financial strategy. ·         Buying a property is a long-term commitment.   Chapters  01:40 Introduction to Rent Vesting and Home Ownership 04:34 Understanding Rent Vesting: Pros and Cons 06:56 Financial Analysis of Rent Vesting vs Home Ownership 09:46 Demographic Shifts and Home Ownership Trends 12:36 Tax Implications: Capital Gains and Negative Gearing 15:17 Long-Term Financial Strategies and Retirement Planning 18:23 Common Mistakes in Rent Vesting 20:52 Final Thoughts: Making Informed Property Decisions   Links and Resources:   Answer this week's trivia question here- www.PropertyTrivia.com.au ·         Win a hard copy of How to Grow a Multi-Million Dollar Property Portfolio – in your spare time. ·         Everyone wins a copy of a fully updated property report – What's ahead for property for 2025 and beyond   Michael Yardney   Stuart Wemyss – Prosolution Private Clients Stuart's Book – Rules of the Lending Game & Investopoly   Get the team at Metropole to help build your personal Strategic Property Plan Click here and have a chat with us Get a bundle of free reports and eBooks – www.PodcastBonus.com.au   Also, please subscribe to my other podcast Demographics Decoded with Simon Kuestenmacher – just look for  Demographics Decoded wherever you are listening to this podcast and subscribe so each week we can unveil the trends shaping your future.

15 Years of Your Mortgage Goes to the Government — What That Means for Australia's Housing Crisis with Tim Reardon

Did you know that for the first 15 years of your mortgage, you're working mostly for the taxman, not your future wealth? It's a startling claim, but one backed by data from the Housing Industry Association — and it sheds new light on why housing affordability is getting worse, not better. Today, I'm joined by Tim Reardon, Chief Economist at the HIA, to unpack this extraordinary insight. We explore how government taxes and regulatory charges are silently front-loading the cost of home ownership, inflating house prices, and burdening Aussie families before they've even laid a brick. And while there's some good news on the horizon — with interest rate cuts expected to drive a recovery in home building — the longer-term challenges are immense. Think taxes, planning bottlenecks, and a construction industry on its knees due to chronic underbuilding and workforce shortages. Whether you're a property investor, homeowner, or policymaker, this conversation will leave you thinking differently about the hidden forces shaping the housing market — and why just building more homes won't be enough.   Takeaways  ·         The first 15 years of mortgage repayments primarily cover taxes. ·         Approximately 50% of the cost of a new house is attributed to taxes and fees. ·         Government policies significantly impact housing supply and affordability. ·         Subsidizing first home buyers does not address the root causes of housing unaffordability. ·         The 1.2 million homes initiative requires substantial policy changes to succeed. ·         Foreign investment is crucial for increasing housing supply. ·         Build-to-rent projects are not currently providing affordable housing options. ·         Interest rates directly influence the volume of new home building. ·         Labor availability is a significant challenge for the construction industry. ·         Policy reforms are necessary to improve housing supply and affordability.   Chapters  01:12 Understanding Mortgage Repayments and Taxes 04:54 Challenges in Housing Supply and Infrastructure 09:00 Government Schemes and Their Limitations 10:39 The 1.2 Million Homes Initiative 14:41 The Future of Build-to-Rent Projects 17:01 Market Dynamics and Housing Affordability 20:27 Structural Challenges in the Housing Industry 23:18 Conclusion and Future Outlook   Links and Resources: Answer this week's trivia question here- www.PropertyTrivia.com.au ·         Win a hard copy of How to Grow a Multi-Million Dollar Property Portfolio – in your spare time. ·         Everyone wins a copy of a fully updated property report – What's ahead for property for 2025 and beyond   Get the team at Metropole to help build your personal Strategic Property Plan Click here and have a chat with us Michael Yardney – Subscribe to my Property Update newsletter here  Tim Reardon HIA Chief Economist  Get a bundle of eBooks and Reports at www.PodcastBonus.com.au   Also, please subscribe to my other podcast Demographics Decoded with Simon Kuestenmacher – just look for Demographics Decoded wherever you are listening to this podcast and subscribe so each week we can unveil the trends shaping your future.

If you're a property investor, I have an important question for you… When was the last time you thought seriously about your property manager? If you think their main job is collecting the rent and organising tradies when something breaks, I've got news for you—things have changed dramatically. In fact, the world of residential property management has been turned on its head in the last five years. New legislation, shifting tenant expectations, work-from-home dynamics, and rapid tech adoption mean that managing your investment property is no longer a simple job you can entrust to just anyone—or worse, do yourself. And if you get this wrong, the consequences can be expensive… and stressful. In today's show I'm joined by Leanne Jopson, National Director of Property Management at Metropole. Leanne's been at the coalface of this transformation, and today she'll reveal how the role of property managers has shifted, what changes are still coming down the pipeline, and what smart investors need to be thinking about to future-proof their portfolios. And while this might sound like an episode just for landlords, I promise you—it's more than that. Whether you own one property or a dozen, what we discuss today could save you thousands and help you sleep a lot better at night.   Takeaways  ·         The role of property managers has evolved significantly in recent years. ·         Legislative changes have increased compliance requirements for landlords. ·         Tenants are now more informed and have higher expectations. ·         Technology is reshaping property management practices. ·         Outdoor space has become a priority for tenants post-COVID. ·         Landlords are increasingly focused on meeting minimum housing standards. ·         Property management is now viewed as strategic asset management. ·         Future-proofing investments is essential for landlords. ·         Building relationships with tenants is crucial for retention. ·         Understanding market trends is vital for successful property management.   Chapters  02:10 The Changing Landscape of Property Investment 04:54 Legislative Changes Impacting Property Management 07:35 The Role of Technology in Property Management 09:49 Evolving Expectations of Tenants and Landlords 12:30 The Impact of Work-from-Home on Property Demand 19:02 Future Trends in Property Management 22:45 Preparing for the Future of Property Investment   Links and Resources:   Answer this week's trivia question here- www.PropertyTrivia.com.au ·         Win a hard copy of How to Grow a Multi-Million Dollar Property Portfolio – in your spare time. ·         Everyone wins a copy of a fully updated property report – What's ahead for property for 2025 and beyond   Leanne Jopson- National Executive -  Property Management at Metropole As Metropole specialises in property management, our vacancy rate is considerably below the market average, our tenants stay an average of 2 years and our properties lease 10 days faster than the market average.

Lagos ist eine riesige Hafenstadt und das wirtschaftliche Zentrum Nigerias. Wie viele Menschen in der wichtigsten Metropole der afrikanischen Westküste leben, lässt sich nur schätzen. Mehr als 16 Millionen sind es allemal, wahrscheinlich ein paar Millionen mehr: Nigerias Bevölkerung wächst rasant.Aus deutscher Perspektive ist Nigeria der wichtigste Wirtschaftspartner an der afrikanischen Westküste. Marc Zander ist Nigeria-Experte beim Mittelstandsverband BVMW. Er berät deutsche Unternehmen seit vielen Jahren beim Schritt in das Land, auch als Geschäftsführer von Africon, seinem eigenen Unternehmen. Die Menschen in Nigeria beschreibt Zander als aktiv, offen und gesprächsbereit: "Das gefällt mir sehr gut an Lagos", erzählt er im Podcast "Wirtschaft Welt & Weit".Rund 90 deutsche Unternehmen sind bereits in Nigeria vertreten. Darüber hinaus beobachtet Zander ein wachsendes Interesse, meist gepaart mit wenig Wissen über das Land. Beim ersten Besuch sind ihm zufolge viele Mittelständler überrascht, wie professionell es in Lagos zugeht.Ob beim Banking oder bei Transport und Logistik: In Nigeria beschäftigen sich viele junge Unternehmen damit, den Alltag der Menschen zu verbessern. Lagos beherbergt eine große Startup-Szene, die auch Bundespräsident Frank-Walter Steinmeier schon besucht hat. Mit "Nollywod" verfügt Nigeria zudem über eine große Filmindustrie, die bei der Zahl der Produktionen "Hollywood" schon übertrumpft hat. Das schafft Arbeitsplätze, die in dem bevölkerungsreichen Land dringend benötigt werden.Doch die schnell wachsende Bevölkerung birgt auch Chancen für deutsche Unternehmen: Abfüllanlagen für Lebensmittel und Getränke sind laut Zander sehr gefragt. Im Infrastruktur-Bereich wird dringend Zement benötigt: "In Nigeria wird im Moment so viel gebaut wie noch nie."Angesichts der aktuellen geopolitischen Weltlage wird Nigeria von der deutschen Wirtschaft mehr denn je wahrgenommen. Die Risiken aber bleiben: Das Land steckt in der schwersten Wirtschaftskrise seit Jahrzehnten, die Inflation ist hoch, der Status als größte Volkswirtschaft Afrikas inzwischen passé. Die Wirtschaft Nigerias wird dominiert durch den Export von Rohöl. Schwankt der Ölpreis, schlägt das aufs Land durch.Schreiben Sie Ihre Fragen, Kritik und Anmerkungen gern an www@n-tv.de.

Today, I'm joined by Greg Hankinson – Director of Metropole's Project Development Division. Greg has almost 3 decades of experience managing hundreds of successful small to medium-scale projects.

While most of us want to become rich and successful, it's really not as easy as many suggest on social media. In today's show Tom Corley and I explain why building wealth is a two-step process and the requirements to not only build wealth, but retain wealth. Takeaways The easiest way to grow wealth in Australia is through residential real estate. Becoming rich involves a two-step process: accumulating wealth and maintaining it. Daily growth habits, such as reading and self-education, are crucial for success. Building rich relationships can significantly impact your journey to wealth. Avoid spontaneous purchases to maintain financial discipline. Isolate a portion of your wealth for retirement planning. Wealth management requires a team of experts, including financial advisors and tax experts. The habits to get rich differ from those needed to stay rich. Mentorship is vital; seek mentors who are two levels above you. Wealth is a journey that requires continuous learning and adaptation. The world doesn't owe you anything; take responsibility. We owe the world our talents and efforts.

Quinn Slobodian and Philip J. Stern on Political Economy

• Philip J. Stern, Empire, Incorporated. The Corporations That Built British Colonialism (Belknap Press of Harvard University Press in 2023), by. • Quinn Slobodian, Crack-Up Capitalism: Market Radicals and the Dream of a World Without Democracy (Penguin, 2023). Adam Smith wrote that, “Political economy belongs to no nation; it is of no country: it is the science of the rules for the production, the accumulation, the distribution, and the consumption of wealth.” However Adam Smith regarded the science of political economy, in practical terms, one is quite hard pressed to find a case where governments—be it an empire, republic, or nation—were completely left out of the picture. At least, that is how it's been historically. Questions about how people and other types of entities organize and generate capital, AND the role that governments play in all of this, fill libraries. The ramifications of the dynamics and rules surrounding money have proved so consequential—and increasingly so, in our increasingly technologized world—that it is no surprise that historians have devoted much energy to the study of political economy. Political economy, in the broadest terms, is the subject of our conversation today. Today on History Ex we put two recent books that bring important perspectives to these questions in conversation with each other. Today's books both deal with entrepreneurial endeavors, usually “abroad”, or beyond the Metropole. While Philip Stern's examination of early modern British corporations explains the myriad ways private initiatives sought government legitimacy and became entangled in the business of governance during the age of empires, Quinn Slobodian trenchantly reveals how some entrepreneurs and ideologues seek to escape governments in the age of nation-states. Our authors find points of convergence as well as divergence in aims, methods, and outcomes of the people at the center of their books. Stern and Slobodian discuss methodologies and chronologies, the ideologies that animated their actors, how memory and history were mobilized in promoting various visions; they probe the historian's perennial challenges of disentangling ideologies from interest, explain how similar actions in different historical contexts can demand different interpretations; and more. Listen in! Philip Stern is an associate professor of History at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina. His work focuses on various aspects of the legal, political, intellectual, and business histories that shaped the British Empire. He is also the author of The Company-State: Corporate Sovereignty and the Early Modern Foundations of the British Empire in India (Oxford University Press, 2011) and many other scholarly works. Quinn Slobodian is a professor of the history at Wellesley College in Massachusetts. He is also the author of the award-winning Globalists: The End of Empire and the Birth of Neoliberalism (Harvard University Press, 2018), which has been translated into six languages, and a frequent contributor to the Guardian, New Statesman, The New York, Times, Foreign Policy, Dissent and the Nation.
