25.01.2022 Perth's gross rental yield is now in the low 4%s. Our 3 and 5 year fixed interest rates are in the low 3%s. This is the first time in recorded history that it is actually cheaper to buy the house you are renting. As the global market continues to stagnate and supply of property in Perth continues to grow below population rates for the next couple of years, that gap will keep widening, in our opinion.... If you are a looking to buy in as a landlord, you should be able to start off positively geared, which is normally the goal of long-term investors after some capital growth. Never before has the cashflow burden of owning real estate been so minimised. You now have to make the decision on whether the asset you are looking to buy is under-valued, and the market you are looking to buy into has fundamentals for growth in the mid-term.

25.01.2022 You might be interested in an article recently published by our MD, Trent Fleskens, regarding his thoughts on the COVID-19s impact on our market.

25.01.2022 Tonight we're talking fire risks in developments in Perth Hills, and what's coming up in property in 2020 with our market expert, Trent Fleskens, Managing Director of Strategic Property Group.

24.01.2022 Catch what Trent had to say on ch7 last night

23.01.2022 *NEW EPISODE* This morning, we chat with Adrian Johnson, Development Consultant at Summit Projects. Adrian discusses the unique costs, risks, and timeframes of ...the industry as opposed to building a regular home. We then delve into the cultural and historical suburb of North Perth with #1 agent, Nik Zounis. With over 100 years of housing, commerce, and immigration in the suburb, lifestyles in 2020 are diverse and housing options are no different!

22.01.2022 What do you think about our MD’s article In The West today?

21.01.2022 Our MD’s comments today on page 4 of The West. Do you agree or disagree?

21.01.2022 Real numbers that actually matter...

21.01.2022 For all those who weren't one of the 300 people registered to watch our webinar on the current state of the market, you can catch the replay here:

21.01.2022 WA's weekly transaction numbers are back above this week last year's numbers. Does that say more about the fundamentals of our market recovery in the face of covid in 2020 or just how horrible the market was for sellers during the royal banking commission and election 2019? Either way, here's a bit of perspective for you.

21.01.2022 Recent REIWA Stats have come out with an encouraging uptick in YoY sales values across Perth. On the broader average, we've got some growth to talk about for the first time in years. Whilst we continue to push that this is a tale of two economies in Perth - those demographics with equity and those without; identifying yet another piece of data to back up the continual anecdotal evidence of low stock and increased transactions, with a low vacancy rate, we are confident that w...e will look back at the end of 2019 as the dawn of a recovery in the broader market above $450,000. I'd suggest those sub-markets below this number are still a good 12 months from seeing meaningful signs of recovery. Like any contrarian would advise, investment in an asset at the turn of the tide in the market is the most astute timing to allocate capital and leverage. Compared to 12 months ago, a large number of existing and new clients are identifying this are now deciding to engage us for our services, which is also a positive sign. #propertynews #propertyinvestment #housingmarket

21.01.2022 *NEW EPISODE* Sam Carrello is back in the studio discussing the merits of fixing or staying variable, given the record-breaking low rates we are currently all e...njoying. Nigel Aldridge then steps into the studio to chat about Kalamunda, some history, and what the future holds for this hills suburb.

21.01.2022 WA transaction activity holding steady in a strong bounce back against April. Interesting how we had more transactions this week than the same week last year, again!

21.01.2022 Did you catch our MD, Trent, assisting Channel 9 yesterday with an update on the property market?

20.01.2022 Ch9 asked our MD, Trent Fleskens, in this week to discuss the ever-tightening rental market. What we know from vacancy rates like this is that simple economics will have to push rental prices up. When prices go up, tenants are compelled to enter the buying market (especially when rates are so low).... We also know most people buy where they already live. So if you can identify where rentals are the tightest, you can also have a scope ahead as to where prices will grow due to increasing demand for purchasing in that area in the future. #rentalmarket #vacancyrate #perthproperty

20.01.2022 Our MD's article picked up by The Real Estate Conversation. Have you given it a read?

20.01.2022 Did you catch our MD's article in The West today?

19.01.2022 A standard Californian bungalow on 465sqm just sold at auction in NSW in the suburb of Russell Lea for $2,205,000. Rusell Lea is 8.2km inland of the city. Th equivalent suburb and house in WA would be Ashfield or Bassendean and might sell for $450,000-$500,000. Our MD, Trent Fleskens, wants to know whether you think:... 1. The Sydney market is way over-valued 2. The Perth market is way under-valued 3. A bit of both 4. Actually, they are just right. They must be richer in NSW. Let us know with a comment below!!!

17.01.2022 Transactions are now up 30% year on year. Vacancy rates down to 2.3%. What comes next?

17.01.2022 Positive news which will hopefully allow building companies to stagger their workload over the next few months and take some pressure off of building costs and trade availability. https://youtu.be/YHgZqxRoRUU

17.01.2022 We are thinking of holding a live webinar where we stick our MD, Trent Fleskens, on the mic for you all to fire questions about the market at him. Who would be interested?

16.01.2022 Our MD was published again in Australian Property Investor magazine today. What are your thoughts on new land estates?

16.01.2022 Look out Morley. With Bayswater trainstation turning into a 3-way hub and a new Morley station on Walter rd, we know where we'll be focussing our efforts over the next 5 years.

16.01.2022 If you didn't grab the paper last week, here's our MD's article explaining the context around median house prices

16.01.2022 Australian Property Investor Magazine asked our MD for some tips on assessing a subdivision/development site. Have a read! https://www.apimagazine.com.au//top-tips-for-successful-s/

15.01.2022 Something we've been flagging for a few months now. What are your perspectives?

15.01.2022 Did you catch Trent on Ch9 with Tracy yesterday?

15.01.2022 Our MD, Trent Fleskens, was asked to share his thoughts on where the market is moving in 2021.

15.01.2022 Transaction numbers just keep ticking up and up and up More people buying, but less people selling. Anyone remember their yr10 economics class?

14.01.2022 Tonight we’re talking property with our market expert, Trent Fleskens, Managing Director of Strategic Property Group.

13.01.2022 *NEW EPISODE* Struggling to catch up with what’s trendy in 2019? Building a new home and hot sure what to fill it with? Kelly Donougher steps into the studio to... walk us through a few top design trends for 2019 and what the future may hold. Simon McGrath, one of Perth’s most established agents, shines a spotlight on arguably the western suburb’s most family-friendly suburb, Mt Claremont. You may be surprised to hear about some recent zoning changes that open up some great subdivision opportunities.

12.01.2022 For all you avid developers out there...

12.01.2022 The WA Building Grant eligibility criteria has been updated by the government to define ‘commencement’ of building to include not only pouring the slab, but also preliminary siteworks. This update will de-risk our clients‘ ability to claim the grant on their upcoming developments.

12.01.2022 Did you catch our MD, Trent Fleskens, updating Channel 9 on WA's most recent stats?

12.01.2022 Trent pulled a new data spread into the studio for his Chat with Chris tonight. Was your suburb mentioned?

11.01.2022 *NEW EPISODE* This week we welcome our favourite commentator, Brendon Ptolomey, back into the studio to give us his perspective on how the market has been holding up through COVID. We also chat with Raymond Chen, Willetton’s #1 agent, to explore why this suburb is so hotly sought after, even through the last 5 years of market decline. Can you guess the major factor?

11.01.2022 A good summary of what is on offer at the moment... To all our clients and followers, this is a great opportunity to benefit from the range of government grants. Please though, before jumping headfirst into any investment decision, make sure that decision would still be a good one if the grants were take away. Only then will it prove the test of time.. Give us a call to discuss your ideas.

10.01.2022 Did you catch our MD, Trent Fleskens, chatting with Lou Momber on Channel 9 last night?

10.01.2022 Listen along to our MD, Trent Fleskens, chatting with Mark Gibson every Saturday @ 4:30pm on 6PR LISTEN HERE --->: https://mcdn.podbean.com//Trent_Fleskens_on_The_Weekend_Ca

10.01.2022 Perth’s median rent increased to $360 per week in February and is the first increase the Western Australian property market has seen since January 2017. http://bit.ly/2TA7Jqq

09.01.2022 The latest CoreLogic statistics have revealed Perth's first monthly rise in house prices in more than12 months, up 0.4 per cent. #9News | http://9News.com.au

09.01.2022 Did you catch Trent on Ch9 for the second time this week? We've mined CoreLogic's data and it's really interesting to see the results when its all broken down.

09.01.2022 A bit of assistance to the tightening household budget

09.01.2022 Another example of monetary policy being set for the East coast with no consideration for little old Perth. Price goes up when one of two factors goes up faster than supply: demand and credit affordability. With thousands of people per month streaming back into WA, the demand side is already putting serious pressure on the supply of rentals and of good quality stock in the western suburbs.... But with the rolling back of responsible lending requirements, this will have a broad-based effect like a steroid injection on the whole of the WA market. This isn’t guess work. This is data, and data generally doesn’t lie. And the data is on every front now back to the same conditions as the last ‘counter-cyclical’ boom we had 10 years ago. Contrary to what people generally believe, it’s got not much to do with mining industry and everything to do with backwards monetary policy and Perth’s attractiveness as a place to live and invest compared to other cities around the world. Hold your horses, Kids. Things are about to get wild!

09.01.2022 We are pumped and ready to go for tonight's INTRO TO PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT Seminar! Looking forward to meeting the lucky 25 who got their free ticket early enough for this sell-out event

06.01.2022 Would you tell lies to improve your chances of getting a loan? Our property guru Trent, Managing Director of Strategic Property Group, is here to tell us how tightened lending criteria are pushing more people to tell porky pies on their loan applications.

06.01.2022 Business Insider asked our MD, Trent Fleskens, for his thoughts on where he would build right now... https://www.businessnews.com.au/article/Where-to-build

06.01.2022 The chorus grows..

05.01.2022 When you’re on average paid more than most, but on average have the cheapest property

05.01.2022 Transaction levels now back to Pre-COVID numbers. If you were hanging back wondering whether Covid would hit the Perth market’s confidence back out of it, you might want to think again...

05.01.2022 UPDATE: Premier Mark McGowan today announced that WA would give an automatic 3-month extension for the site works to start under the HomeBuilder scheme. WA administers the scheme on behalf of the Commonwealth and WA’s Commissioner of State Revenue has used her discretionary power to extend the commencement period to six months from the date of signing a contract for all HomeBuilder applicants due to the surge in applications.

05.01.2022 Perth’s property market is a direct analogue of population growth. This is another piece of the puzzle coming together for our market’s recovery. Where were you in October 2019?

04.01.2022 A fantastic opportunity for young people to finally enter the market, given interest rates (and assessment rates) are at all time lows. Just don’t get caught in the rush purchasing in areas that are chronically over-supplied and continually growing in supply with newer houses. Infill is the answer, both economically and socially.

04.01.2022 Our MD, Trent Fleskens, was asked to shed some light on the affect of the new restrictions on real estate. In short, these restrictions will shrink transaction numbers over the next couple of months, and some good buys will make themselves available just as things were getting a little hot coming into Autumn.

04.01.2022 *NEW EPISODE* This week we ramp up the technical ability and start with an introduction to subdivision. There is only one person Trent goes to for all of his ex...pertise and that is his very own superstar, David Gilbert, Development Manager at Strategic Surveying. This episode is the first of a series delving into the world of subdivision. We then sit down with Jared Rayner, Brentwood’s #1 agent by volume sold. Hear about this hidden gem on the Canning river and the only suburb split between the Applecross and Rossmoyne SHS intake areas.

04.01.2022 If you didn't catch our MD, Trent Fleskens', update on the Perth market, you can catch up here. Whilst we've been calling it since September last year, media outlets now seem to be calling it too - we are at the start of the next upward property cycle.
