📣 ATTN: Founders 📣 Round 1 interviews for the Techstars Tech Central Sydney Accelerator September 2024 cohort are currently open ⚡and you (yes, YOU 🫵) should apply now! Why Apply Early?  The sooner you apply, the sooner we get to meet you! You might think that the later you apply, the more you’ll have to include in your application, but think about it this way: the earlier you apply, the earlier we can interview you, and the more time you have between the first and second interviews to demonstrate progress and traction! Not to mention, you’ll get a better understanding of what we’re thinking and any questions we may have. “But what about the product demo video?” “But my pitch deck isn’t perfect yet!”  Incomplete applications (so long as we can grasp what your startup is about) will be considered for round 1 interviews. These interviews are 15-20 minutes long and our main objectives are to get to know you as a founder, understand your idea and any progress or traction, and see if you’re the right fit for this problem. The earlier you reach out, the more time you have to impress us before the next round 😉.

📊𝐑𝐁𝐀 𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐬 𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐲: 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐃𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐈𝐭 𝐌𝐞𝐚𝐧 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐇𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐭?🏡 The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) has decided to keep the cash rate steady at 4.35% amidst easing inflation, soft economic growth, and a gradual loosening in labour markets. Here's what this decision means for property buyers and investors: 𝐊𝐞𝐲 𝐓𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐬: - 𝐈𝐧𝐟𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐄𝐚𝐬𝐞𝐬: The trimmed mean rate of inflation eased back to 0.8% in the June quarter, down from 1.0% in March. - 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐑𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬: The RBA's decision to maintain the cash rate provides a break from the rate hikes we've seen since November last year. - 𝐄𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐜 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐬: Slower job growth and a subtle rise in the unemployment rate also played a role in keeping rates unchanged. 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐈𝐭 𝐌𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐇𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐭: While stable interest rates are generally positive for borrowers, today's decision is unlikely to significantly boost housing demand. The recent growth in property prices has been driven more by low supply, tight rental conditions, and demographic factors rather than consumer sentiment. 𝐓𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐖𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡: - 𝐀𝐟𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐬: Home sales are easing as affordability becomes more difficult, migration slows, and rental growth momentum wanes. - 𝐃𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐞 𝐆𝐫𝐨𝐰𝐭𝐡: Housing values continue to trend higher, but the pace of gains is slowing across the board. CoreLogic’s national Home Value Index (HVI) shows a deceleration from 3.3% in June last year to 1.7% in the three months ending July 24. 𝐋𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐀𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐝: The RBA is keeping its options open, with potential rate cuts on the horizon if inflation continues to ease. However, affordability pressures and potential housing supply responses may limit price growth even as rates come down. The earliest forecasts for a rate cut are penciled in for November. 𝐁𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐟𝐢𝐭𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐲 𝐁𝐮𝐲𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐈𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐬: - 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐄𝐧𝐯𝐢𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭: Borrowers can enjoy a period of rate stability, making it easier to plan and budget. - 𝐏𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐎𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐬: Investors might find opportunities as the market adjusts to these new economic conditions. 👉 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐍𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐠𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐭?

Using a buyer's agent in Brisbane in 2024 offers several significant advantages: 1. Local Market Expertise:   - A buyer's agent possesses in-depth knowledge of the Brisbane real estate market, including current trends, property values, and the best neighbourhoods. This expertise helps you make informed decisions and avoid overpaying. 2. Access to Off-Market Listings:   - Many properties are sold before they are publicly listed. Buyer’s agents often have access to these off-market opportunities, increasing your chances of finding the ideal property. 3. Negotiation Skills:   - Experienced buyer's agents are skilled negotiators who can help you secure a property at the best possible price. Their negotiation tactics can save you money and ensure favourable terms in the purchase agreement. 4. Time-Saving:   - Searching for a property can be time-consuming. A buyer’s agent handles much of the legwork, such as identifying suitable properties, scheduling viewings, and conducting due diligence, allowing you to focus on other priorities. 5. Professional Network:   - Buyer’s agents often have a network of professionals, including mortgage brokers, inspectors, and solicitors. This network can streamline the buying process and provide you with trusted service providers. 6. Objective Advice:   - A buyer’s agent provides unbiased advice, focusing solely on your best interests. Unlike a selling agent, who represents the seller, a buyer's agent works exclusively for you, helping you make decisions that align with your goals. 7. Stress Reduction:   - The property buying process can be stressful. A buyer's agent can alleviate much of this stress by managing the complexities of the transaction and ensuring all steps are completed smoothly and efficiently. 8. Future Investment Potential:   - An experienced buyer's agent can help you choose properties with strong growth potential, ensuring your investment appreciates over time. They can advise on areas that are likely to see development and increased demand. Considering these benefits, using a buyer's agent in Brisbane in 2024 can significantly enhance your property buying experience, offering you expertise, access, and peace of mind. #buyersagent #buyersagentbrisbane #buyersbutler #buyingahome #alastairkay #innerbrisbane #realestatebrisbane #realestatebuyersagent #helpbuyingahome #brisbanewest #brisbanenorth #buybetter
