In this recent episode of The Pure Property Podcast, Phil Tarrant and Paul Glossop explore the shifting landscape of Australian property investment, following a key interest rate cut by the Reserve Bank to 3.6 per cent.  This move has sparked optimism among investors, as lower borrowing costs improve loan affordability and refinancing options.  The duo stresses the importance of working closely with mortgage brokers to ensure rate cuts are passed on and fixed-rate transitions are managed effectively. A major focus is the long-term value of capital growth over short-term yield, supported by data showing cities like Sydney and Melbourne outperforming others like Darwin over 25 years.  While high-yield properties offer immediate cash flow, capital growth is highlighted as the true driver of wealth in property.  The co-hosts also note that reduced property listings – down 6.8 per cent year-on-year – are pushing prices higher, adding urgency to informed investing.  Using a lighthearted champagne analogy, they liken quality investments to vintage wine – carefully selected and rewarding over time, urging investors to prioritise strategy and patience to maximise long-term returns.

In this episode of the Defence Property Podcast, Victoria Cross recipient Mark Donaldson joins host Kane Dury to explore the parallels between service life and strategic property investment – and why calculated risk-taking is second nature for Australian Defence Force personnel. Donaldson shares how his military mindset, forged in some of the most demanding operational environments, has shaped his approach to wealth building. While many ADF members may feel disconnected from the property market due to constant relocations or limited financial background, Donaldson's story demonstrates how tactical thinking, resilience, and seeking expert support can unlock powerful long-term gains. The discussion covers lessons learnt from missed opportunities and how military discipline can be transferred to investment planning. Donaldson opens up about how buyer's agents, defence housing benefits like Defence Home Ownership Assistance Scheme and Home Purchase Assistance Scheme, and trust structures can play a critical role in accelerating portfolio growth. The episode also offers practical advice for young service members: start early, stay disciplined, and don't be afraid to ask for help. With the right mindset, property investment becomes not just achievable, but a potent vehicle for securing financial independence after service.

In this episode of The Pure Property Podcast, co-hosts Phil Tarrant and Paul Glossop discuss the post-election results and how the pledge housing policies are criticised for ignoring the core crisis of chronic housing undersupply. The duo discuss how critics have argued that the pledge proposals are short-term fixes that fail to resolve the core issue of housing undersupply, with measures such as stamp duty cuts and first-time buyer grants offering limited impact without addressing how to build homes more efficiently and affordably. The co-hosts then analyse the current property market using CoreLogic's latest data, which showed that the market is broadly recovering, with growth recorded in every capital city in April. The FAST 50 report, set to launch soon, is expected to highlight top investment areas with strong growth potential through 2026. However, challenges remain, such as record-low new listings, underscoring persistent supply constraints. Investor confidence is also being tested by potential new taxes on unrealised super fund gains. While the overall market shows resilience, growth is slowing in leading cities like Brisbane, Perth, and Adelaide.
