Why is it people, you seem it necessary to debate the comings and goings of the Aus property market? If you deem yourself as intelligent as you portray on these boards with your testerone filled muses then surely you must realize with any logic that you may possess the realisation hat this is a duel one cannot win?

I still cant get my head around why he is even on this forum.Sharing info on the downside to investing is fine but to take it to the level he has is crazy. He is on the wrong forum.Like i have said before. If i dislike something i sure as hell dont spend my quality time deeply involved with it like is the case here. It makes no sense. Unless of c…[Read more]

Property goes down ,property goes up, Property goes down again. Whatever . Long term people. Long term

I believe property will bounce back next year with gains of over 20% per year for the next 5 years. Rents will stay with the price rises with the above very sustainable as incomes starting in the mining sector flow through to the wider comunity. The usa is alsmost out of it problems and i suspect to see strong gains in ther housing in the coming…[Read more]

Well Mackar. You asked for restrained posts and they jumped on it like seagulls on a chip.One thing you can take from this is that when you mix facts past and present with peoples emotions. All you really get is predictions. And many of them a biased towards there own thinking be it positive or negative. I think nearlly all believe that there will…[Read more]

But we do have all the ingredients for one. Low supply

Wrong. 900.000 empty houses on the market. That doesn't even include the amount of land for sale.

high demand

Wrong again. Poms ( the biggest migrators ) can't sell their houses, they will stay in UK. The upcoming recession will also take demand away. More and…[Read more]

I agree. No way will there be a boom over the next few years. But we do have all the ingredients for one. Low supply,high demand,rising rents,Possible rate cuts soon. But i dont think these are enough to combat the high house prices and personal debt we have in Australia. What i do believe they will do is soften the down turn so hopefully we will…[Read more]

Well they sure as <a href="mailto:s#@t“>s##t didnt go up either.

It seems the growth of countries or cultures in the past and present are similar to most living things.Take a tree in a forest for example. They start small and struggle for survival stuck in the dark under their neighbours. Then as one of the mighty trees above fall. They are given a chance to grow. Eventually with a little luck they flourish a…[Read more]

I think most people agree that the growth many have enjoyed will not continue. Now its about building buffers ,sitting tight and if you are in the position to buy and want to. Then bargain hard.Many points argued at the moment are neither here nor there. Yes things will slow or go backwards. But if you are prepared then who cares. its about Long…[Read more]

I will have to tell all the people in my local area looking for good accomodation that its all in there head. Im sure they will have some choice words to say back

1 property. Ask me again in a year.

I just think its that time in the cycle. D & G posters are loving it because thing have swung to there corner. Let them have there moment in the sun. Yes rough times are ahead but long term i believe nothing will change. Buy well at a good price and hold on. You should be ok. And in the next cycle we can cover this same topic again,and again,and…[Read more]

Just because he is not here trying to talk up the market or tell people to buy dosnt mean he's not here to help, if anything he's is making people more aware of what is going on in the market such in this case as all the bank repossessions going on at the moment due to…[Read more]

I wonder if a few years down the track with his first house purchased and nearly paid of. Will he look at inesting differently. Most investors after all are not greedy rich people.
