De: Veronica Morgan & Chris Bates
  • Resumen

  • Who's really in control when you buy a property? The Elephant In The Room is where the things that no one wants to talk about, actually get talked about. Veronica Morgan, real estate agent, buyers agent and co-host of Foxtel’s Location Location Location Australia & Chris Bates, financial planner, mortgage broker and wealth coach have joined forces to find out what’s really going on in the world of real estate. Veronica and Chris talk to property owners and buyers every day in their respective lines of business. They’ve observed a wide spectrum of confidence in people’s decision making ability when buying and selling property, often to the detriment of the individuals concerned. They are both fascinated by consumer behaviour and together they’re going to uncover who’s really making the decisions when you buy a property. In each episode they get into the psyche of buyers, agents, auctioneers and other industry experts to learn the truth about how buyers are influenced and why they do the things they do. In every episode you’ll learn from the mistakes of a “property dumbo” as well as Chris & Veronica’s “elephant rider bootcamp” training session. The plan? This property podcast has been created to help us all make better property decisions!

  • Why Equity Mates Thinks the Next Generation Won’t Own Homes
    Sep 15 2024
    Why do Alec and Bryce from Equity Mates think the next generation won’t own homes? In this episode, we have a chat with Alec Renehan and Bryce Leske, the co-founders of Equity Mates Media, to explore why more young Australians are steering away from the idea of property ownership and leaning towards investing in shares instead. We discuss how the wealth gap between those who can get financial help from family and those who can’t is influencing this shift. How is this gap making property less accessible for younger generations? And why are many looking to the stock market as a more viable option for building wealth? Throughout the episode, we cover the challenges young people face when trying to enter the property market and what they’re considering as alternatives. Alec and Bryce share their insights from years of working with young investors and reflect on the changing attitudes towards property and investing. If you’re curious about how investing mindsets are evolving, this is an episode you won’t want to miss. Tune in and let's dive right into it!

  • Insider Secrets: Why Housing Supply Is Harder to Boost Than You Think
    Sep 1 2024
    Why is it so tough to ramp up housing supply when it seems like everyone’s talking about it? In this episode, we’re joined by Jill Garner, the Victorian Government Architect, who gives us a behind-the-scenes look at why boosting supply isn’t as simple as just setting targets. Jill brings her extensive experience to the table, sharing insights into the realities of urban planning and design from both government and industry perspectives. Jill helps us understand the challenges that come with trying to increase housing supply discussing the struggles that state and local governments face in balancing the need for more homes with the importance of good design and quality construction. She explains why meeting housing targets isn’t just about making plans—it’s about dealing with real-world obstacles like costs, time, and planning rules. Our conversation also touches on the “Future Homes” initiative, which aims to provide more housing options in Melbourne’s suburbs without sacrificing livability and explore why simply rezoning areas for higher density doesn’t automatically result in new homes and what’s really holding back development. This episode is perfect for anyone who wants to understand the real reasons behind the housing shortage and what needs to happen to make more homes available. The insights presented in this episode offer a clear look at the challenges and possibilities in solving this complex issue. So let's dive right into it! Episode Highlights: 00:00 - Introduction 01:06 - Who is Jill Garner? 02:38 - What is a government architect and their role in the Victorian government 05:04 - How does each level of government address housing supply and affordability issues? 08:02 - How does the state government coordinate with local councils in Victoria? 10:48 - Is Melbourne seeing similar government rhetoric on housing density as other places? 12:59 - Where is the disconnect between housing targets and actual construction? 15:33 - Can pre-designed homes compete with custom builds? 22:45 - Can rezoning truly improve housing affordability, or is something missing? 25:18 - Is the pushback on future homes driven by consumer resistance or developer concerns? 28:55 - How are Victoria's ongoing projects impacting developers' building costs and decisions? 33:28 - Is Melbourne better equipped for density with its transport system? 38:52 - How can Melbourne address city-level needs and past high-density apartment mistakes? 43:37 - Should other states follow Melbourne’s lead on sustainability and passive design? 48:24 - How are government plans for Melbourne adapting to the rise in remote work? 52:58 - Jill Garner’s property dumbo About Our Guest: Jill Garner, the first woman to serve as Victorian Government Architect, was appointed in 2015 and brings 40 years of experience in both practice and government. She leads a team promoting integrated design and collaboration within the state government.
