Living in your dream suburb while investing elsewhere sounds like a recipe for success – but is this strategy right for everyone? In this episode of Property Showcase, host Grace Ormsby sits down with Tim Watson of brickstowealth to explore one of the hottest trends taking over the investment community: rentvesting. Tim explains why the pull of the perfect lifestyle is inspiring young Aussies to start investing before they have purchased a home of their own, especially in cities like Sydney where first home buyers are priced out of the market. In this episode, you will also hear: The pros and cons of investing in units. Why investors should spread their portfolio across multiple markets. Whether the psychological impact of rentvesting is too much for some investors.

With lenders increasingly reducing fixed rates for mortgages, investors must consider how they can best respond to this upcoming trend. On this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, host Phil Tarrant and Finni Mortgages' Eva Loisance explore the pricing and policy changes occurring around fixed-rate mortgages, and consider how property investors can benefit from fixing their rate. NAB is the first of the big four banks to offer a reduction in fixed rates for owner-occupiers, leading the duo to unpack whether this change has been made in anticipation of future rate cuts, and how other lenders are responding. Stressing that fixed rates still present a gamble for owner-occupiers, Eva highlights that investors with high loan-to-value ratio may save significant money by fixing their mortgages.
