What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
It's The Real Estate Podcast, brought to you by Ray White, the largest real estate and property group in Australasia. And welcome to another episode of The Real Estate Podcast, available on iHeartRadio and also Spotify and Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts from. It is a Tuesday the 7th of June for 2022. The long weekend has come and gone. We are into another short week and coming up we're going to be talking with Anna Porter from Suburbanite. Having a look at house valuations this morning among other talking points. If you're celebrating your birthday for the 7th of June today, you're in pretty good company. Tom Jones is turning 82 years old and I think he's still touring. Go Tom. Liam Neeson, the big tough guy, is turning 70 today.
What is the significance of house valuations in real estate?
And, oh yeah, Anna Kournikova. Do you remember her? She was the Russian tennis star. Back in the day, she was continuously trending in today's equivalent of social media as a major influence, I guess, as well as a tennis player. And she is turning 41 years young today. It's the main centre forecast with propertybuyer.com.au. And checking in around Australia for your weather today. First, we go to Sydney expecting a fine day and a high of 17 degrees. Melbourne showers. It's going to be cool again. What else is new? 11 degrees today. Brisbane expecting a little bit of cloud, but it's going to be fine. And a high of 19 degrees. Good morning to you in Perth. That is the place to be. Once again, blue skies and expecting a high today of 21.
Enjoy your morning coffee. Wake up every morning to the Real Estate Podcast. Well, the ongoing Elon Musk Twitter deal is back in the news this morning. Musk has threatened to abandon his $44 billion deal to buy Twitter. He's accused Twitter now of resisting and thwarting his right of information about fake accounts. He's claimed that up to half of Twitter's users could be fake. Twitter puts that number at around 5%. And interestingly, when you pull out of a deal, particularly in the US, there are all sorts of penalties and fees that you have to pay. And they are saying, get this, that Musk could be hit with a $1 billion breakup fee if he pulls out of the deal. Ouch. We feature market updates, interviews and trends.
It's your real estate podcast for breakfast. Well, valuations on any given day when you're looking to buy a property, whether it's a home to live in or an investment property, is a pivotal piece of due diligence that you cannot cheat on.
How do interest rates and inflation impact property values?
There are sound formulas to follow, which is all part of good research now to practice. And to help explore this further, let's welcome into the podcast Anna Porter from Suburbanite. Good morning, Anna. Great to have you on the podcast. My pleasure. Well, I've asked all commentators this since the new Labour government came into power. What do you think is likely to yield around the property market? What do you reckon?
It's going to be interesting to see how the government handles interest rate rises and inflation because those are things that will affect the market because it makes everything more expensive, including the mortgages. And if they don't manage that well and we see a lot of price pressure come in and affordability pressure, the big markets like Sydney and Melbourne certainly will feel that. The more affordable markets, not so much at Labor currently has a little bit of policy in and around helping first home buyers get into the market by looking at between 30 to 40% stake in the property. The government will take that stake in the property as sort of a bit of a deposit or a loan scheme. There are similar programs already running in WA and Tasmania that are relatively successful.
It'll really come down to how many they make available. They're talking, I think, 10,000 of those packages available. So that will help some, but not all. So the devil will be in the detail there.
And one of the core things that you do as a business is valuations. What, if anything, Anna, should people be paying closer attention to with the current market that we're living in around property values?
