In this episode, Lloyd James Ross, a seven-figure investor and entrepreneur, delves into the current state of the Australian property market and questions whether the remarkable growth of the past 50 years can be sustained. He highlights the stark reality of inflation-adjusted property rents yielding zero returns, despite soaring property values. Lloyd explains how factors like rising interest rates and the increasing duration of mortgages signal a potential correction in the market. He introduces the concept of the "golden illusion," emphasizing that the conditions that led to past successes are unlikely to be replicated. Join Lloyd as he explores the underlying numbers and trends that could signal a shift in the Australian property landscape.
