Debunking Australia's Property Investing Myths
Property advice is unregulated and plenty of myths surround what makes a good investment. Many of these myths are just sales talk, but people still seem to be enticed across the nation.
In this episode, we’re challenging property investing myths a lot of Australians believe – Is there such a thing as ‘the right timing’ in buying? Should you trust bank property predictions? Should you worry about rising interest rates?
Evan Thornley of LongView Property Managers & Advisors joins us in providing evidence that most of these property investing myths are… rubbish!
