Several of the big banks have pivoted on their rate outlook, and are now predicting rate hikes (rather than no change or a fall) this side of Christmas. It could be a cue for homeowners to plan rather than panic. 😎

There’s no shortage of noise around the property market right now 🏡

Prices are falling. Affordability is getting worse. Government policy is changing the market. Depending on which headline you read, there’s always something to worry about.

In Jamie’s latest article for Surf Coast Times, he looks beyond the headlines and shares a reminder that property has always been a long-term game.

Markets move in cycles, policies come and go, and today’s conditions will change too.

The key? Keep perspective and make property decisions with the next decade in mind — not the next news cycle.

💼 How to get a home loan if you’re self-employed 💼⁣
⁣
Over 1.7 million Australians run their own show. ⁣
⁣
It can bring freedom, flexibility and financial rewards. ⁣
⁣
But it may mean jumping through more hoops when it comes to taking out a home loan. 🏡⁣
⁣
You may be eligible for a standard ‘full doc’ loan with just one or two years' financials. 📝⁣
⁣
Or low doc loans can be available if you’re very new to small business. 📊⁣
⁣
The main point is to speak to us to understand your options. 👇⁣

🛠️ Home renovations are on the rise, but keep an eye on costs 🛠️⁣
⁣
Major bank NAB reports a 16% jump in demand for renovation loans nationally. 📈⁣
⁣
The good news is that building costs have come off recent peaks. 🏡⁣
⁣
But they always have the potential rise again - like they did when fuel prices increased a few months back. ⛽⁣
⁣
The solution can be to build a buffer into your budget, and lock in quotes where possible. 💰⁣

While rising prices were the talk of the town not so long ago, the tide has started to turn, with property values beginning to soften – but it’s not all bad news for home owners. 🙌

⏳ How hard does the market usually bounce back after a downturn?⏳⁣
⁣
Waiting for property prices to hit a cyclical low could potentially work against home buyers. 🏡⁣
⁣
Domain research shows prices have risen 32% on average after each of the eight past downturns. 📊⁣
⁣
If the market dips now, buyers could potentially purchase a house at a good price. ⁣
⁣
But if you wait too long, the market could pick up again and you could be purchasing when buyer competition is fierce. ⁣
⁣
Being prepared is key. Speak to us today about pre-approval and get started on your property journey. 👇⁣

🏡 Strategies that can help clear your mortgage by retirement 🏡⁣
⁣
One-in-three Gen Xs expect that they'll still be paying off a home loan in retirement, according to a Citro/AMP report.⁣
⁣
But there are ways to potentially clear the slate sooner. 💡⁣
⁣
Refinancing could see you save with a lower rate (just try not to extend the home loan term). ⁣
⁣
An offset account can also put spare funds to work by reducing the interest charged on your home loan each month.⁣
⁣
Meanwhile, making consistent extra repayments more often can help chip away at the loan balance. 📉⁣
⁣
Call us for more tips to potentially be mortgage-free by the time you retire. 👇⁣
