  • Should you even pay off your mortgage?
    In this Australian Property Podcast episode, your hosts Pete Wargent from Allen Wargent Property Buyers and Chris Bates from Alcove mortgage specialists discuss how to maximise borrowing capacity, how much first homebuyer stimulus is enough, and whether you should pay off your mortgage. They also run through some of your listener questions.  This week on the show:  1 – How much first homebuyer stimulus is enough? 2 – Half of Canberra's bankruptcy filings last year were from strata managers chasing fees, inquiry hears 3 – Rob Moore – should you pay off your mortgage? Listener Q&A 1 – Aristotle’s son Hi I'm new to property investing. Love the podcast learned lot from it. We have our personal property, just want to start property investing, I hear lot about buying in trust everywhere, but can't get my head around it as there is not much clear info on it, can you guys explain on investing property under a trust, what are the strategies we can use, how lending works when you buy property under trust. Thank you. 2 – Shawn Hello, enjoying your podcasts a fair bit. Interesting seeing the major growth of farmland over the last 20 years and wondering why we don’t talk about investing in this sector too much? Personally, I’ve seen more equity growth with my farm than with my residential and industrial properties over many years. Plenty of upside in the years ahead in my view. Shawn 3 – Reza the Imp I’ve been listening to your podcasts for a while. Excellent job.I don’t believe ever hearing the 85% withdrawal rule for FHSS for concessional contributions discussed here nor on other Rask podcasts. Could you please touch on this and how it can be justified to use FHSS for someone with low marginal tax rate I.e. less than 30%.

  • Why buying a house is like online dating (part 2)
    Welcome back to part two of our breakdown of how buying property is like online dating. Join Owen Rask and buyer’s agent Amy Lunardi as they continue the analogy that somehow keeps making way too much sense. In this episode (covering analogies 11–20), we chat through: 🔧 Thinking you can change someone …or a property. Spoiler: You probably can’t—or at least not without time, cash, and a serious reno plan. 📱 Seeking offline opportunities Off-market is the property version of meeting someone at a bar instead of Tinder. It takes effort, but it works. 🪞 It’s not them, it’s you If you've been searching for six months and nothing ticks the boxes… maybe it's time to reassess your expectations. 👨‍👩‍👧 Your parents and friends don’t always know what’s best Yes, even if they’re funding the purchase. Be selective with whose advice you take. 😮‍💨 Taking time to get over it Lost at auction? Mucked around by an agent? Don’t let it derail your momentum. 😬 Settling out of desperation Just like dating, don’t buy “good enough” because everyone else is. It might cost you more in the long run. 📸 Don’t swipe no too fast A bad listing photo doesn’t mean it’s a bad property. Dig deeper before writing it off. 🗣️ Everyone will have an opinion From Reddit threads to well-meaning mates—filter the noise and focus on your goals. 🦸‍♀️ Get a wingperson Whether it’s your dad at an inspection or a buyer’s agent by your side, don’t go it alone. 💔 Break up if it’s not working Bought something that no longer suits? Don’t stay stuck—cut your losses and move on.
