Elections, rates and properties: Navigating the market in 2025
Interest rate movements, elections and property prices – what does 2025 have on the cards for property investors? Finni Mortgages’ Rebecca Carlson and seasoned investor Stephen Ash discuss how investors can continue to build their portfolios.
In this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, host Phil Tarrant is joined by Finni Mortgage’s Rebecca Carlson and property investor Stephen Ash to unpack changes in the mortgage sector and what the 2025 market will look like for investors.
Phil and Rebecca analyse what looms on the horizon for investors, in particular what interest rates and an election might mean for property prices. They look into the Commonwealth Bank’s decision to extend interest-only periods from 10 years to 15 years without requiring a full application and how this might impact the market.
The podcast then turns to investment strategies, how Stephen was able to build a 13-property portfolio, and the mindset that can deliver financial freedom.
