In this episode of The Pure Property Podcast, co-hosts Phil Tarrant and Paul Glossop are joined by Sam Beckett to discuss the current Australian property market, focusing on interest rates, investment strategies, and market trends.
The co-hosts begin the episode with a market analysis, noting that housing values rose nationally by 1.1% in October, driven by strong demand, limited supply, and high immigration.
They link this trend to broader economic conditions, as the Reserve Bank of Australia recently held rates steady amid rising inflation, largely driven by increases in housing and electricity costs.
The hosts caution that government initiatives, such as first home buyer grants and zoning changes, may increase demand but do little to address the underlying supply shortage.
Macquarie Bank’s upcoming halt on lending to trusts and companies was also discussed, with the hosts emphasising the importance of using such structures legally and strategically.
Guest Sam Beckett also shares his property journey, demonstrating how disciplined planning and leveraging a stable income can build a $2 million portfolio by age 29.
The conversation highlights the importance of investors remaining vigilant, considering long-term market dynamics, and making informed decisions tailored to their specific goals.

Competitive rates, hot market, hotspots and strategies
In this episode of The Pure Property Podcast, Phil Tarrant and Paul Glossop explore the shifting landscape of Australian property investment following the Reserve Bank’s key interest rate cut to 3.6 per cent.
The duo discuss the intricacies of the current market, government schemes and strategies for potential investors, blending global insights with local expertise.
Paul, speaking from Ontario, Canada, shares his experiences travelling through Europe and North America, offering a unique perspective on hidden opportunities and challenges in property investment.
They examine the Australian First Home Guarantee Scheme, set to expand from 1 October, which allows first-time buyers to purchase homes with just a 5 per cent deposit, but caution that it may increase competition and push up property prices in major markets.
Phil stresses the importance of discipline for first home buyers, advising them to start modestly rather than overextending financially in pursuit of their dream home.
For investors, the scheme presents both opportunities and challenges, with Paul highlighting areas of potential capital growth and the benefits of rising demand.
The discussion also covers banks offering competitive fixed rates, signalling possible shifts in financing options for investors.
