Hidden danger lurking for first home buyers after rate rise
But buyer’s agent Lloyd Edge, founder and managing director of Aus Property Professionals and author of Buy Now, says that first home buyers run the risk of rushing into the housing market.

How to invest like a pro and future proof your property portfolio against interest rate hikes
As we all know, last week, the RBA announced that interest rates would be official rising by 0.25 per cent, making the cash rate 0.35 per cent.
This is the first increase since interest rates were slashed to an all-time low of 0.21 per cent because of the pandemic.
While interest rates rising is overall a positive outcome, as it's a sign of a recovering economy, this change will significantly impact everyone who owns the property, either as an investment or their PPOR (principle place of residence).

Losing at virtual auctions? Expert reveals 4 ways to get ahead
Lloyd Edge, Director of Aus Property Professionals and author of best-selling Positively Geared says, “A virtual auction essentially works the same way as traditional auctions, but they are conducted virtually. This means no crowds, so you will usually just see the auctioneer and the agent, in the agent’s office or at the property. Virtual auctions provide the safety and comfort of being able to bid from your own home, or anywhere you have access to a mobile device.”
He continues, “The bidding process is the same, and only the human face-to-face element is removed. As a buyer you are bidding from the comfort of your own home and this may assist you to stay calm, confident, and level-headed.”
