My prediction based on the facts to date is;Market will improve up until July then deteriorate badly after August … best time to buy property will be 2010 – 2012

You are very brave, I admire that

Predicting the downturn was a no brainer.  Lets see who is game to predict (guess) accurately what is going to happen in the next 12-24 months.  I'm surely not going to, so it is business as usual for me (buy and hold).  I plan to continue to build assets now and when the market starts to recover.Cheers,JP.

This is Margret Lomas's view today 10/02/09;"Statistics just released this week by the ABS shows that perhaps some of the analysts have been incorrect after all. As recently as late 2008, many of them were predicting spectacular falls in property prices, some saying it would be as much as 40%. Instead these figures indicate that lowering interest…[Read more]

My opinion has not changed, this is just a bump in the road.  Things will flatten out for a while.  Towns like Moranbah will continue to prosper.  The mines would actually have to close and stop production completely before the shortage of housing would be stemmed in these areas.  Coal and Iron ore mines will not close like nickel mines hav…[Read more]

Some good advice:"It is always a good time to invest in property"  If you are waiting for the right time to invest, that time will never come.  It is like waiting for the new and latest computer to come out before buying, you will never own one because there is always a better one coming.  Right now is the best time to invest and always will be…[Read more]

If we listen to the media the end of the world is upon us.  Basically they will say what ever it takes to sell papers etc.  The media are not well known for their honesty.  Even with all the global economic turmoil China's growth rate is still predicted to be running at around 7 – 8% in 2009.  Even if it falls as low as 6% this is still a mas…[Read more]

I wouldn't be too quick to sound the death knoll on the resources boom just yet.  It is worth keeping an eye on.  A savvy investor might just be able to make a lot of money out of this down turn.

I have just signed up as a gold member.  I went with them after a lot of consideration.  They have been very easy to talk to and seem trustworthy to me.  They have been in business for a couple of years now and I can't find any dirt or bad press on them.  I haven't purchased a property with them yet but they have already helped me rearrange my loa…[Read more]
