Interest rates have risen to 4.60%, but does that mean property investors should stop buying? In Episode 7 of The Ramsey Report, we look
beyond the headline to explore what higher rates mean for your borrowing capacity, cash flow and next property move.
Learn how to calculate, diagnose and improve property investment cash flow across rent, expenses, debt, vacancy, buffers and tax planning.
Discover nine reasons property investment cash flow fails, how to calculate the real holding cost and how to stress-test an Australian property portfolio.
Why are Australian property prices falling while some markets continue to grow? Explore how interest rates, lending conditions and local demand are shaping property investment in 2026, and what to review in your own property portfolio.
Interest rates and inflation do not tell property investors the whole story. Ramsey Property Wealth's financial fragility research examines Australia's credit, liquidity and funding system - and the signals investors should watch as the RBA rate cycle evolves.
The market has pushed expectations for the first rate cut toward 2027, while talk of a property correction is growing louder. But Australia's property market is telling a more mixed story. New evidence is now putting that view to the test - including two data points that challenge our own thinking.
Sydney and Melbourne headlines suggest Australia's property market is experiencing a correction. But the underlying data tells a far more nuanced story. Rather than moving in unison, markets are diverging across cities, price points and demand drivers. Understanding that distinction could materially influence how investors structure and position their portfolios over the next 12 months.
The 2026 Tax Reform Act reshapes the after-tax economics of holding property just as the market has peaked. The 9 August bare trust deadline is decided by contract exchange, not settlement, and an SMSF LRBA change lands around 10 August. Here is what carries a hard date, what can wait, and the order to decide them in.
