Expat Mortgages Podcast S7E33 - September Market Update continues...

Welcome to Season 7, Episode 33 of #AtlasExpatMortgages podcast, September Market Update continues (Part 1). Atlas Wealth Group hosts, James Ridley and Jeremy Harper kick off with the Fed's overnight rate hike and how quickly it flowed through to Australia, with NAB and ANZ already lifting fixed rates across the board within hours. They discuss the outlook for the RBA's upcoming decision on September 29, current market pricing on the likelihood of a hike, and why they're currently leaning toward variable over fixed for most borrowers. The conversation moves to the property market, where national home values have now fallen for a fifth consecutive month. Rather than reading this as a red flag, James makes the case for why hesitant investors could be missing an opportunity, and shares which capital cities are holding up better than others. They round out the update with a look at other factors shaping the economic backdrop, including oil prices, unemployment, and upcoming tax reforms working their way through Parliament. Part 2, our Listener Q&A, drops next week.
