  • This Could Be the Biggest Property Opportunity in 30 Years

    This Could Be the Biggest Property Opportunity in 30 Years
    Jun 10 2026
    🎥ABOUT THIS VIDEO:Interest rates are rising. Cost-of-living pressures are increasing. The media is full of negative headlines. So is now still a good time to buy property?In this episode, Lloyd Edge breaks down why uncertainty often creates some of the biggest opportunities for property investors and explains why waiting on the sidelines can sometimes be more costly than taking action.Lloyd shares what he's seeing across Australia's property markets right now, from slowing premium suburbs to booming entry-level markets, regional areas outperforming some capital cities, and the opportunities that emerge when fear starts to drive buyer behaviour.The discussion also covers property cycles, interest rates, cash flow strategies, refinancing, fixed versus variable loans, and how investors can stay focused on their long-term goals instead of reacting to headlines.Lloyd also shares a powerful personal example — a family home purchased for $10,000 in the 1970s that is now valued at approximately $2 million — highlighting the impact of long-term capital growth.The episode finishes with Deal or No Deal, where three real properties are analysed live based on location, growth potential, rental appeal, development opportunities, and investment fundamentals.If you've ever wondered:Is now still a good time to buy property?Should I wait for interest rates to stabilise?Why are some markets booming while others are slowing?How do successful investors stay focused during uncertainty?What makes a property a deal in today's market?⏱️ TIMESTAMPS:0:00 – Is now still a good time to buy property?1:24 – Why this could be one of the best buying opportunities in 30 years2:03 – How fear creates opportunities for investors2:47 – Property strategies for rising interest rates3:27 – Buy now or wait?4:27 – Different property markets moving at different speeds5:06 – Why entry-level properties are still booming5:58 – Regional markets outperforming capital cities7:19 – Affordability, infrastructure, and population growth8:03 – The work-from-home effect on regional Australia9:05 – Understanding property cycles13:37 – Managing higher interest rates14:07 – Cash flow, rental demand, and strategy15:15 – Media fear versus investor mindset16:07 – Building buffers and managing risk17:13 – Refinancing and competing lenders25:40 – Property 2 analysis27:12 – Property 3 analysis28:49 – Final verdicts---🚨 Australia's OFFICIAL #1 best-selling property investment book of the past decade, Positively Geared, has been completely revised and updated:👉 https://amzn.to/3VXfJTp🥇 Aus Property Professionals is one of Australia's most sought-after buyer advocacy agencies, with more than 5,000 purchases made on behalf of clients.Book your discovery call here:👉 https://www.auspropertyprofessionals.... ***🚨”**Set For Life”*Learn the property investment strategies top investors use to build long-term wealth.Get your copy here 👇https://www.amazon.com.au/Set-Life-Pr...---✅ CONNECT WITH US:Website:👉 https://www.auspropertyprofessionals....Send your questions to:👉 lloyd@auspropertyprofessionals.com.auFollow us on Instagram:👉 / lloydedge_buyersagent Subscribe to our YouTube Channel:👉 @auspropprofessionalsConnect with Lloyd on LinkedIn:👉 /lloyd-edge-b417a399---Disclaimer: The information provided in this podcast is general in nature and should not be considered personal financial advice.

    ABOUT THIS VIDEO:How do you know what a property is actually worth before you buy it?In this episode, Lloyd Edge breaks down one of the most important skills every property investor and home buyer needs to master — determining true market value.With property prices moving rapidly and buyer competition remaining strong across many parts of Australia, understanding what a property is genuinely worth can be the difference between building wealth and making an expensive mistake.Lloyd explains how experienced investors assess market value, why comparable sales matter, how to identify misleading pricing tactics, and what buyers should look for before making an offer.The discussion also covers rental appraisals, under-market and over-inflated rents, location analysis, flood zones, busy roads, and the common mistakes buyers make when relying too heavily on agent advice.The episode finishes with Deal or No Deal, where three real properties are analysed live based on value, location, growth potential, and investment fundamentals.If you've ever wondered:How do I work out a property's true market value?How do investors avoid overpaying?Can I trust the agent's price guide?What sales should I compare against?How important are rental appraisals?What red flags should buyers watch for?This is the episode to watch.⏱️ TIMESTAMPS:0:00 – Introduction: How to work out market value without getting ripped off1:11 – What market value actually means1:52 – Why market value changes constantly2:40 – Comparable sales and how investors use them4:00 – Why asking prices can be misleading5:10 – How agents determine price guides6:20 – Understanding sold prices vs advertised prices7:45 – How to research local sales properly9:15 – Why some buyers overpay10:30 – The danger of emotional buying12:00 – How to analyse location quality13:40 – Flood zones, busy roads, and property red flags15:20 – Rental appraisals explained17:00 – Over-inflated rental appraisals and what to watch for18:30 – Buying the right property at the right price20:00 – Why one property can suit one buyer but not another21:30 – Deal or No Deal begins22:00 – Property 1 analysis24:00 – Property 2 analysis26:00 – Property 3 analysis28:00 – Final verdicts and lessons🚨 Australia's OFFICIAL #1 best-selling property investment book of the past decade, Positively Geared, has been completely revised and updated:👉 https://amzn.to/3VXfJTp🥇 Aus Property Professionals is one of Australia's most sought-after buyer advocacy agencies, with more than 5,000 purchases made on behalf of clients.Book your discovery call here:👉 https://www.auspropertyprofessionals.com.au✅ MESSAGE ME THROUGH THESE CHANNELS:Website:👉 https://www.auspropertyprofessionals.com.auSend your questions to:👉 lloyd@auspropertyprofessionals.com.auFollow us on Facebook:👉 www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61563777981416Follow us on Instagram:👉 www.instagram.com/lloydedge_buyersagent/Subscribe to our YouTube Channel:👉 @auspropprofessionalsConnect with us on LinkedIn:👉 /lloyd-edge-b417a399Disclaimer: The information provided in this podcast is general in nature and should not be considered personal financial advice.
