  • Ep 364: Can annual property growth persist at 7% perpetually
    Read full blog here.In this insightful episode, Stuart Wemyss addresses a common investor question: Can Australian property values continue growing at 7% per year? He explains how compounding works over time and why adjusting future property values for inflation and income growth makes projections, like an $8 million home in 30 years, more relatable.Stuart dives into the impact of income distribution, noting that the top 20% of Australians earn nearly half of all disposable income and experience faster wage growth. These high-income earners drive demand for blue-chip, investment-grade property, often located within 2 to 20 km of major CBDs, making such properties more likely to achieve strong long-term growth.He challenges the idea that Australian property is broadly overvalued by focusing on geographic scarcity, population concentration, and the limitations of regional infrastructure investment. He also outlines several tailwinds that could boost property demand in the coming decade, including lower interest rates, superannuation tax changes, inheritance wealth, and reduced future equity returns.Whether you're a long-term investor or simply seeking clarity on the sustainability of property price growth, Stuart offers a well-reasoned, practical perspective grounded in evidence and experience. Tune in to gain confidence in your investment decisions and understand the forces shaping Australia’s real estate landscape.Do you have a question?

  • Ep 363: What are the best, safe, income-style investment options?
    Read full blog here.In this insightful episode, Stuart Wemyss explores the safest, most reliable income-generating investment options for risk-averse investors or those with short investment horizons. He begins by highlighting why fixed income investments deserve more attention, especially for portfolio stability, retirees, or anyone with a low risk tolerance.Stuart presents a clear hierarchy of choices, starting with mortgage offset accounts as the most efficient, risk-free return option, often outperforming taxable investments on a net basis. He then explores term deposits, which are secure but less appealing given flat interest rate curves.Next, he dives into fixed income ETFs, breaking them into categories: government bonds (like VGB), corporate bonds (such as CRED and HCRD), composite ETFs, and hybrid securities (like BHYB), which blend the features of shares and bonds for higher income. These options provide dependable yields (4–6.7% p.a.) with varying degrees of risk and liquidity.Stuart also touches on alternative investments like unlisted mortgage and private credit funds but warns they often carry more risk, lack transparency, and may offer marginally higher returns not worth the trade-off.If you're seeking steady, low-risk income from your investments, this episode is packed with practical, evidence-based strategies to help you make informed decisions.Do you have a question?

  • Ep 362: 4 property (evidence-based) golden rules
    Read full blog here.In this episode, Stuart Wemyss distils insights from over a decade and 150+ blogs into four golden, evidence-based rules for successful property investing. He begins with the foundational principle: prioritise capital growth over income when buying, focusing on high-quality, investment-grade assets in tightly held, established suburbs. Income, he explains, can be improved later, but land location is forever.Rule two highlights the importance of understanding property cycles, and timing your purchases to coincide with upcoming growth phases can dramatically fast-track wealth building. Drawing on real client case studies from Brisbane, Stuart illustrates how identifying the right cycle makes a significant difference.Next, he breaks down the math behind wealth accumulation, leveraging full borrowings, negative gearing, and compounding capital growth to create outsized long-term returns. He contrasts property with shares to explain why property is often the better vehicle for gearing.Finally, Stuart stresses future buyer capacity; understanding who will be able to afford your property in 10, 20, or 30 years is key to selecting high-performance assets. He unpacks the roles of credit policy, urban sprawl, and wealth inequality in fuelling long-term growth.This episode is a must-listen for anyone serious about building long-term wealth through strategic property investing.Do you have a question?
