Podcasts about real estate institute

Twice this week, we've heard first-home buyers told that they have a rare opportunity to get into the property market. When both the Real Estate Institute and QV released their latest data, it came with a heads-up that it could be first-time buyers' big chance to act. But how much of that is true, and how much is property people talking a big game? Money correspondent Susan Edmunds spoke to Lisa Owen.

In this episode, REB editor Liam Garman is joined by Tim McKibbin, CEO of the Real Estate Institute of NSW (REINSW), to explore one of the most pressing issues in the industry – the exceptionally high churn rate among new agents – and the steps needed to create a more sustainable, educated workforce. The conversation kicks off with a sobering statistic: nearly 80 per cent of new real estate professionals exit the industry within their first year. McKibbin unpacks why better foundational training in areas like contract law, property fundamentals, and client advocacy is critical to reversing this trend. They then delve into the soft skills that underpin success in real estate – from building trust to mastering interpersonal communication. The episode concludes with a look at the evolving role of technology and AI. McKibbin shares how REINSW is harnessing AI for data analysis and interpreting legislation and how agents can leverage these tools to work smarter and strengthen client relationships.

Research suggests ‘empty nesters‘ should downsize to free up large homes for young families trying to get in to the housing market. Recent research suggests that if more empty nesters made the move to smaller homes, it could free up to 60,000 much-needed properties across the country.Real Estate Institute of Queensland CEO Antonia Mercorella joined Luke Bradnam on 4BC Breakfast to discuss the findings.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As Victoria's housing market continues to grapple with rising rents and dwindling rental stock, the Real Estate Institute of Victoria (REIV) has issued a timely and urgent plea: reduce the tax burden on rental providers and stop penalising those who are keeping the rental market afloat.  But instead of heeding the call, the Allan Labor Government is doing the opposite—hitting landlords, small business owners and short-stay providers with wave after wave of new or higher levies in a desperate bid to plug a $188 billion black hole in the State Budget. This week, the REIV released a submission ahead of the 2025–26 Victorian Budget urging major property tax reform.  Their request is simple but critical: reduce stamp duty and land tax for rental providers, create incentives for long-term leases, and rein in red tape that's pushing investors out of the market.  Their data shows the consequences of government inaction are already being felt. Between March and September 2024, Victoria lost 24,000 rental bonds. That's not a minor fluctuation—that's a mass investor exodus. And it's tenants who are victims. REIV CEO Kelly Ryan summed it up perfectly: “At the heart of our submission is the need to ensure a more balanced tax and regulatory regime that includes adequate incentives for rental providers.”  Ryan also called for alignment with international rental markets by supporting longer-term leases, which would benefit both renters and investors with added security and certainty. But while the REIV is offering sensible, balanced reform ideas, the Victorian government is proving once again that it's more interested in cash grabs than meaningful solutions.  Since 2023, we've seen an aggressive ratcheting up of land taxes, the introduction of new taxes, an ongoing expansion of compliance obligations, and now—another levy, this time under the guise of funding emergency services. From July, landlords will be hit with a higher version of the new Emergency Services and Volunteers Fund levy—effectively replacing the old Fire Services Levy but applying higher rates to landlords than to owner-occupiers.  This comes on top of the 7.5 per cent short-stay accommodation tax that began in January and a land tax regime that's already the most punitive in the country. The state's land tax threshold was quietly dropped from $300,000 to $50,000, dragging hundreds of thousands of everyday Victorians—including Airbnb hosts, home-based businesses and retirees—into the tax net for the first time.  These aren't major corporations. These are teachers renting a room on Airbnb, retirees running consulting businesses from a home study, and families listing a property while working overseas. According to tax experts at Mills Oakley, even earning just $30,000 from a garage-based side business can now trigger a tax bill that previously didn't exist. The State Revenue Office is retrospectively combing through tax records, hitting unsuspecting homeowners with bills going back five years.  This is not reform—it's a cash grab. And its brutal for ordinary people who are trying to find ways to pay their bills. And what's the government's response? Treasurer Jaclyn Symes—who insiders say had to be asked to avoid using “economic terms” in briefings because she “doesn't understand them”—has arrogantly stated that landlords “can afford to pay more.”  That's the level of economic sophistication we're working with. Look up the term “out of touch” and you'll see a photo of Jaclyn Symes. The real-world consequences are clear. Property investors are selling up, thereby reducing rental stock, and those who remain are compelled to pass on these increased costs to tenants.  As rental supply falls, prices climb. Some renters are now facing $200-a-week increases, according to Suburb Advice. And yet the Victorian Treasurer remains oblivious, insisting it's fair and necessary. Meanwhile, short-stay hosts and home-based business owners are also feeling the squeeze.  Luke Achterstraat from the Council of Small Business Organisations said: “This cynical ‘bottom of the barrel' approach to revenue raising will only punish mum and dads seeking to innovate and provide their families a living.” It's no surprise that Victoria has recorded a 12.8 per cent decline in rental stock over the last decade. Investor confidence has been shattered by a decade of anti-landlord policies, with no sign of relief on the horizon. What we're seeing now isn't just short-term economic mismanagement—it's a structural dismantling of the private rental market. The Allan Government talks a big game about affordability, supply and fairness, but their actions tell a very different story.  Every new tax, every additional compliance cost, and every ideological jab at rental providers pushes Victoria further from the housing targets outlined in its own Housing Statement.  

We hear it all the time—population growth drives property prices. But is that actually true, or just one of the many myths that get thrown around in real estate? In this episode, we sit down with Simon Pressley from Propertyology to break down what really moves property markets. Is it supply and demand? Is it economic conditions? Or are we just looking at all the wrong things? Simon spent years studying Australian property history, and he’s got some strong opinions—like why people completely misunderstand the impact of population growth and why economic diversity is actually the real game-changer. We also get into the rise of AI in property research. Can data and algorithms actually predict the next boom, or is it just another overhyped tool that doesn’t account for the real drivers of price growth? If you want to cut through the noise and get a clearer picture of what actually makes property markets move, this episode is for you.

NSW's Rental Tenancy Act is changing, with new rules to take effect by mid-April on rent hikes, pet ownership, and no-grounds evictions, requiring landlords to give valid reasons for tenant removal. In this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, Phil Tarrant is joined by the CEO of the Real Estate Institute of New South Wales (REINSW), Tim McKibbin, to discuss the imminent changes to the Rental Tenancy Act and its potential impact on property investors. The upcoming regulations, expected by mid-April, include limits on rental increases, rules on pet ownership, and the abolition of no-grounds evictions, which require landlords to provide valid reasons for evicting tenants. The duo discuss the historical context and current changes in the Rental Tenancy Act, and its potential impact on investors and property managers who already face a shortage of professionals. They stress the importance of balance as overregulation can hurt landlords and tenants as fewer investors may enter the market, leading to a shortage of long-term rentals. As these changes are implemented, the REINSW stresses the importance of balancing tenant and landlord interests while maintaining market stability. Tim said investors must stay informed and engage in policy discussions to ensure their voices are heard.

As a property investor, it is nearly impossible to go to new levels of success without the support of a top property manager. Jo Natoli explains why.  Few recognise the wide-ranging role of a property manager. They need to get down and dirty, doing whatever it takes to inspect properties and deal with messes. They need to be a psychologist, counsellor and negotiator as they manage people and their emotions. They need to be a constant conflict manager, and are often everyone's punching bag.  Think you can do it yourself? Good luck!  So how do you find the best sustainable property manager, as distinct from the rest, to ensure your investment property continues to perform in order to achieve your long term lifestyle goals? This is where our guest Jo Natoli comes to your rescue. Jo has had her sleeves rolled up in the trenches of elite property management for over three decades, as the Founder of The Rental Specialists in NSW. She is also a current Real Estate Institute of NSW Board Member. This week Jo reveals her own personal property investment and property management journey, before digging into the details and the future of all things property management next week.

There is one thing every real estate agent learns very quickly when they begin their career and that is  - the greatest fear of every seller is the fear of underselling.  So some agents will tell you the best way to get the highest price when selling is to go to auction.   But, is that the case? AJ Chand, an experienced agent and a Director of Proptech Australia gives us his thoughts on that topic.  Then …. we switch the conversation to that other hot topic - affordability as Bushy is joined by Real Estate Institute of Australia President Leanne Pilkington.

According to Todd Hadley PRD Managing Director, each property market across Australia is currently moving at various speeds and directions regardless of whether an area is located closer to a capital city or is regional.   This is pointed out in PRD's latest  Australian Economic and Property Report.  Todd says…“we are seeing different markets recording varying levels of price growth, while simultaneously, in other areas, prices are declining. A prime example of this can be seen in Brisbane where property prices continue to grow, whereas Hobart prices are shrinking.” Bushy talks to the editor of the report, Dr Asti - PRD's Chief Economist.   Then he catches up with Real Estate Institute of Australia President and CEO of the Laing & Simmons Group, Leanne Pilkington who says "there are too many hurdles and egos in property to ever simplify home buying and selling”.

By the end of this year, real estate agencies will have a lot more administrative work on their plates. On this episode of Secrets of the Top 100 Agents, host Grace Ormsby speaks with Hannah Gill, deputy president of the Real Estate Institute of Australia (REIA), about what the upcoming federal reforms mean for the industry. Hannah shares why she is concerned additional reporting requirements will not solve the issue of money laundering. She also outlines the REIA's seven core recommendations for how governments can make the reforms effective, targeted, and beneficial for both consumers and agencies alike. 

Housing Minister Chris Bishop will today unveil the Government's plan to “flood the market' with land for development in a bid to end New Zealand's housing crisis.  Bishop will use a speech to the Real Estate Institute of New Zealand today to announce a slew of changes to New Zealand's planning laws recently agreed by Cabinet. He will argue the changes will flood the market with affordable land to develop and make it easier and cheaper to develop that land into housing.  Some of the changes are bound to be controversial; the Government will abolish councils' ability to set fixed urban-rural boundaries and will abolish powers that let councils mandate balconies or minimum floor area sizes for developments.  This means the market, and not councils, will set the minimum size of new apartments. This could be controversial, but Bishop will defend his changes in his speech, noting the rules “can significantly increase the cost of new apartments, and limit the supply of lower cost apartments”.  Bishop told Mike Hosking most councils will go along, but he expects a few to disagree.   Councils will be required to plan for 30 years of housing growth.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There's disappointment a Bill that would have regulated property managers more has been withdrawn. Housing Minister Chris Bishop has scrapped the Property Managers bill, saying the cost-benefit was marginal at best. He says it would have cost tenants and landlords. Real Estate Institute CEO Jen Baird says the figures involved were small. "Some of the numbers that I've seen have been 43 cents per property per week, up to about $2.50 per property per week."
