If you’re in the market to buy some property, you want to be sure you’re not getting ripped off.
With increasing demand and tighter supply becoming a growing concern, treading cautiously is the best thing you can do.
It has been reported that most of the demand is coming from investors, SMSF trustees and Chinese investors.
Robert Gottliebsen from Business Spectator has written a great online article titled ‘Beware the mother of all housing booms.’ He takes a no-jargon look at the following issues and their consequences:
- Banks offering cut mortgage rates thanks to Reserve Bank Governor Glenn Stevens
- Taxpayers likely to subsidise the boom via a massive increase in the use of negative gearing via both personal and superannuation tax breaks
- The possibility of damaging the economy and consequently the need of the Reserve Bank to take responsibility for pulling the price boom trigger
I encourage you to read the full article here.
