Jo Vadillo Tells Us What We Can Expect From The Property Market Moving Forward
My dear friend Jo Vadillo agreed to present at She Renovates Live and then I cut her presentation short – so, to make it up to her I invited her to chat to us on the podcast about what has happened in the property market in the last two years and what we can expect going forward.
By looking back over the last year or so on what has happened in the property market is an important exercise. The past can inform what is going to happen and how we are going to approach the future.
The banks have led people to believe that because the property prices went up so much last year, they will drop just as much this year. Unfortunately that is highly unlikely. The banks also predicted a 40% drop in prices at the beginning of COVID. I think it is safe to say that no one knows.
Jo Vadillo shared some interesting insights with me about the past and the future of the property market in Australia. She talked about the changes we’ve seen in selling and buying properties during COVID and what she predicts for 2022. She shares some valuable information for those who are looking to invest in property this year.
