Today, I am doing a deep dive with Stuarty Wemyss of Prosolution Private Clients on how the last 20 years of property price growth from 2003 to 2023 has compared to the previous 20 years from 1983 to 2003 in our main capital cities and what has contributed and detracted from growth over each of these 20 year periods.  With the last 20 years being down for growth, we look ahead to whether this will likely be corrected in the coming 20 years and how we could look to adjust our strategy to increase our investments performance in the years ahead.   Let’s go inside.   Resource Links: Get your Strategic Portfolio Plan and our help with Buying Your Next Perth Property  (https://www.investorsedge.com.au/invest-in-perth-property/) Join the Perth Property Investment Facebook Group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/perthpropertyinvestors) Join Jarrad Mahon’s Property Investor Update (https://www.investorsedge.com.au/join) For more info on our award-winning and highly rated Property Management services that give you guaranteed peace of mind (https://www.investorsedge.com.au/perth-property-management-specialists/) For more info on how our Property Sales services can ensure you get the best selling price while handling all the stress for you (https://www.investorsedge.com.au/selling-your-perth-property/)       Episode Highlights: Intro [00:00] Long-term Property Investment, Focusing on Past Market Fluctuations and Their Impact on Growth Rates.

In this throwback episode, I take a step back to look at what really matters in life. We all want to be happy and fulfilled, right? However, sometimes we chase after things that we think will make us happy, but instead they don't. I've been on this journey myself, trying to figure out what it means to live a good life. Along the way, I've learned some important lessons. So today, I want to share my experiences with lifestyle design and the six essential human needs that must be met for real happiness and fulfillment. It's not all about making money. There's a whole other aspect of life that needs our attention, and that's what I'm focusing on in this episode. As I've discovered, having all the money in the world doesn't necessarily mean you'll be happy or fulfilled.

In this episode, I dive into the inner hidden game of investing, inspired by insights from Morgan Housel's "The Psychology of Money." Reflecting on personal and professional experiences, I explore the unique games we play in the investment realm, emphasizing the pitfalls of comparing our financial journeys with others.  Drawing on my 16-year career in real estate and 20 years of investing, I share lessons learned from the allure of appearing wealthy and keeping up with the Joneses versus the value of substantial assets that are hidden and not seen by anyone.  Join me as we examine the impact of societal expectations, the significance of investment choices tailored to our individual goals, and the power of understanding the game you're playing in the pursuit of true wealth.

Today, we're joined by property management expert, Jewayne Loong to discuss  how to manage and mitigate your property investment risks.  With over 15 years of experience, we've seen the importance of proper planning beyond the initial purchase focusing on tight management of the property, tenant, insurance, legalities, and contingencies to minimise the chances of a costly event occurring and ensuring it doesn't wipe you out.   Many investors overlook these critical elements, risking their investments on unforeseen issues. Today, we'll share insights and strategies to protect your property investments, emphasizing the need for the right safeguards to prevent potential derailments.  Let’s go inside.   Resource Links: Get your Strategic Portfolio Plan and our help with Buying Your Next Perth Property  (https://www.investorsedge.com.au/invest-in-perth-property/) Join the Perth Property Investment Facebook Group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/perthpropertyinvestors) Join Jarrad Mahon’s Property Investor Update (https://www.investorsedge.com.au/join) For more info on our award-winning and highly rated Property Management services that give you guaranteed peace of mind (https://www.investorsedge.com.au/perth-property-management-specialists/) For more info on how our Property Sales services can ensure you get the best selling price while handling all the stress for you (https://www.investorsedge.com.au/selling-your-perth-property/)   Episode Highlights: Intro [00:00] Managing Older Properties and Minimizing Risk [04:40] Landlord Insurance, Compliance, and Lease Agreements [09:35] Property Management Strategies to Reduce Risks and Conflicts [13:54] Property investment in Perth, Australia [21:52] Outro [26:50]   Thank you for tuning in!

Today, I'm thrilled to welcome back Ashwin Ramdas from Eventum Consulting Group, an expert in the realm of self-managed super funds (SMSFs). Our conversation today dives deep into the potential opportunity for property investment as well as the risks to consider as part of your overall plan. This topic is timely and relevant; hardly a week goes by without someone asking me whether they should consider investing in property through their superannuation. Amidst a landscape cluttered with media hype and the persuasive tactics of spruikers, not to mention the complexity that some accountants seem to relish—possibly due to the fees it can generate—there's a clear need for straightforward information to get a feel for whether you should then seek specific advice. That's precisely why I've invited Ash to the show.  Let’s go inside.    Resource Links: Get in touch with Ashwin at Eventum Consulting Group (https://eventum.com.au/) Get your Strategic Portfolio Plan and our help with Buying Your Next Perth Property  (https://www.investorsedge.com.au/invest-in-perth-property/) Join the Perth Property Investment Facebook Group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/perthpropertyinvestors) Join Jarrad Mahon’s Property Investor Update (https://www.investorsedge.com.au/join) For more info on our award-winning and highly rated Property Management services that give you guaranteed peace of mind (https://www.investorsedge.com.au/perth-property-management-specialists/) For more info on how our Property Sales services can ensure you get the best selling price while handling all the stress for you (https://www.investorsedge.com.au/selling-your-perth-property/)   Episode Highlights: Intro [00:00] Using Self-managed Super Funds for Property Investment [03:50] Self-managed Super Funds and Property Investment [09:09] Self-managed Superfund Investing in Property With Potential Risks and Opportunities [13:42] Investment Strategies and Risk Management [20:40] Self-managed Super Fund Requirements and Minimums [25:18] Superannuation and Retirement Planning in Australia [29:42] Self-managed Super Funds and Property Investment [34:00] Outro [35:19]   Thank you for tuning in!
