We are heading into the phase of the economic cycle where interest rates will dominate the headlines. It’s not that surprising perhaps since this is a macro turning point after more than a decade of interest rate falls. It’s kicked off a wall of worry about the uncertainty of the environment we’re entering.

Regional properties have traditionally had lower levels of capital growth and higher rental yields compared to capital cities. However, a resurgence in interest in regional property markets and the excellent growth they’ve enjoyed in recent years has sparked a debate about whether changes in the way we work and live as a result of the pandemic are going to be permanent. When comparing regional and metro properties, regional looks a lot more affordable at first glance. But how do the two compare as investments?

With interest rates at all time lows, inflation above the RBA’s target and the cash rate at 0.1% already the only direction interest rates can realistically head is up. Let’s put this in context and have a look at what effect a bottoming of the rate cycle and a move to rising interest rates has had on the property market in the past.

Within the Marvel movies franchise, Thanos has always been one of the most well fleshed-out characters. Ultimately, he is trying to solve an economic problem of scarcity – the exact same thing we should look at to determine what makes a sound investment. Thanos started as a one-dimensional villain and was slowly revealed to be someone driven by a divine purpose of trying to save the universe. This was illustrated in the most important scene in the movie where he was required to murder his beloved daughter for his cause.

When it comes to specific real estate markets, most information focuses on the large picture or macro performance of a town or city.

It’s going to be hard to wipe the smile off my face at the moment. Finally, the city I love has come back to life. From Moomba last weekend, the return of footy crowds at the MCG and workers returning to their city offices (husband included 😊), life is pretty damn good for the city that is known as the world’s most locked down.

Like other traditional social markers of growing up such as being in a relationship, getting a job, learning to drive, getting drunk for the first time, and getting married, home ownership is a revered milestone in Australia, a marker of adulthood and a key to economic security.
