Every Australian Needs To See THIS - Graeme Holm #149

Graeme Holm counts four property corrections in Australia, and puts the largest at 5.5 percent. His argument is that trying to time your way around a dip that size, while sitting out years of double digit growth, is the expensive mistake almost nobody adds up.

Graeme Holm is the founder of Infinity Group and has been in lending for more than 25 years. Recorded after the federal budget changes.

What you will learn:

- The size he puts on all four Australian corrections, and why he says timing them costs more than it saves

- Why rents rising and deposits getting harder to save are the same problem for a first home buyer

- His argument that a home is capital gains tax free and an investment is not, and what that means for the order you buy in

- Why he says anyone telling you not to pay tax is broke, and how paying tax is what lets him borrow

- Why the shift from trusts to companies looks like every other government scheme cycle

Graeme Holm holds through every correction because the asset pays regardless. Property should work the same way.

Most properties only make money if the market does. The ones that pay for themselves from the day you settle are bought differently, and it comes down to four points.
