#56 Will 2025 be a game changer for property investors? Expert insights revealed
In the 56th episode of Inside Commercial Property, hosts Phil Tarrant and Scott O’Neill kick off the new year with a forward-looking discussion on property investment strategies for 2025. They explore the implications of predicted interest rate cuts and how these changes may influence the broader property market, emphasising that timing and strategy are crucial for investors aiming to maximise their returns.
Scott shares his perspective on various asset classes, advising caution for investors in certain areas while noting potential opportunities for owner-occupiers or long-term investors with unique property prospects. The conversation stresses the importance of holding onto assets during periods of market adjustment, as falling interest rates could trigger a “sugar hit” to property values, making 2025 a year to strategically assess portfolio movements.
The episode also highlights the resilience required to navigate market uncertainties, with practical tips for balancing negatively geared investments and maintaining cash flow in a higher interest rate environment. With a mix of expertise and anecdotal insights, the hosts provide a comprehensive guide for property investors looking to make informed decisions in a dynamic market.
This episode underscores the importance of adaptability and strategic planning, offering valuable advice to listeners aiming to align their property goals with the shifting economic landscape.
