In this special throwback episode for our summer series of best episodes, I'm excited to delve into why I believe local investors are often fashionably late to the party or choose to make an early exit with their Perth Property Investment. Brace yourself; it's going to be a captivating ride.

I'll start by dissecting the financing and activity levels in the past, both by homeowners and investors, to uncover how these factors have contributed to the highs in median house prices over the years. It's essential to understand the historical context to make sense of the current property landscape.

I'll then take a deep dive into how the trends of growth have played out over the last two decades, providing you with valuable insights into the cyclical nature of property markets.

Next on the agenda is an examination of the reasons why local investors are selling their properties. Are these reasons valid, or do they crumble under scrutiny? I'll hold them up to the light of reason and see what emerges.

Furthermore, I'll explore why there seems to be a surplus of local investors selling compared to those buying at the moment. Surprisingly, Western Australia, where I believe we have it quite good, presents unique advantages in this regard. I'll delve into these reasons and also shed light on the challenges other states are facing in the property market.

Let’s go inside.
