As an investor wired into the media you would have no doubt heard of Bernard Salt's comments around the need for Gen Y-ers to stop eating smashed avocado should they ever want to be able to save for a property. Although taken out of context, the comments caused a wave of responses both at home and abroad about the affordability of Australian property, how a generation of investors will never crack the market and that a property bubble exists in Australia – and that it's about to burst. In this special episode of the Smart Property Investment Show, we hear first-hand from Bernard Salt from The Demographics Group on the realities of investing in Australian property, where you should be channelling your dollars, whether there is a bubble (and if it's going to burst) and how our markets will develop in the future. Bernard also shares his insights on the red flags all investors should be aware of when investing in property as well as the key economic and social change data you should be using to help establish trends and determine whether to invest in a suburb or area. According to Bernard, job growth, wage growth and infrastructure growth are the essential factors to consider when looking at a new property. Accessibility, as well as transformation to make the way of life "easier", are also significant factors to consider. Tune in to get the inside scoop on: Bernard's tips on what's hot and what's not How immigration has impacted the Australian property market and why it will continue to do so His views on the markets subsiding, plummeting and going sideways How we can create pathways for that next generation to get access to that property market How different markets will look in hishe next few years Why the strategy of buying within ten kilometres of the CBD is successful How jobs increasing in areas outside the CBD will impact the central point of Sydney SUBURBS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE Penrith Wyalong Campbelltown Sydney Melbourne Brisbane Bondi Chatswood Parramatta Blacktown Badger Creek Ryde Epping Penrith Liverpool Homebush Westmead Woolloomooloo Paddington Hornsby Adelaide Mount Barker South Yarra Richmond Burnley Glen Waverly Lilydale Bowral Macedon Hahndorf Perth Mandurah Busselton Bunbury RELATED ARTICLES FOR READING Gold Coast benefits from mining boom Quality stock hard to find in Melbourne Sydney property has its 'best years ahead' 6 ways to increase your yield in a tough market FOLLOW US Did you like this episode?

You've found a great property that you've secured under market value, one that shows all the fundamentals for delivering sustainable growth over time, offers upsides for renovation or development potential, and on paper, should deliver a healthy yield. But you can't find someone to rent it…. We hear it all the time on the Smart Property Investment Show. So, what do you do? Well, it's time to look at how you're managing the property – and whether you might need some professional help. Self-management works for many property investors. If you've got the time, skills, aptitude and are geographically close (and willing to get calls in the middle of the night to fix a broken pipe!), you can manage your properties yourself – for very good effect. However, many property investors turn to property managers to support them – supporting all aspects of their property management in return for sharing some of rent, which can range from 4-15 percent, depending on where you are located across Australia, and the services offered. Whether you choose self-management or to use the experts, you need to be informed, educated and proactive to ensure you maximise your yield potential, reduce stress through untenanted properties and create the best performing portfolio you can. In this episode of the Smart Property Investment Show, host Phil Tarrant is joined by Thom Richards and Nick Bouris from Managed, who reveal all the best tools, tactics and tips to manage your properties – and make the most of your investment. As well as sharing the way they are transforming property management – using smart tech coupled with a focus on asset management to deliver better outcomes for tenants and landlords – tune in to get the inside word on: Finding and keeping good tenants Smart tips for rewarding tenant loyalty and boosting goodwill Understanding what fair wear and tear is – and how not to sweat the small stuff Insights on rental markets in key areas Smart ways to approach the often-awkward issue of increasing, or even decreasing, rents – and how to keep tenants onside, happy and engaged Why you should be proactive when it comes to maintenance and how to keep maintenance costs down Key insights into adding value to tenants through new fixtures, fittings or amenities, and how that may impact your tax position. All this and a whole lot more on this issue of the Smart Property Investment Show.
