[PODCAST] 2024 in Review: Lessons from the Housing Market and Predictions for 2025 with Stuart Wemyss

In this special year-end episode of the Michael Yardney Podcast, I chat with Stuart Wemyss about the key lessons we've both learned from the property markets in 2024 and what we can expect in 2025. 

Let’s face it, 2024 threw plenty at us—rate movements, geopolitical turmoil, falling consumer confidence, uncertainty about rate movements, shifting buyer behaviour, and a housing market that continued to keep investors on their toes.  

So we explore the impact of interest rates, regional market performance, and the mindset needed for successful property investment.  

Takeaways

• Government policies and economic conditions will shape the property landscape in 2025. 

• Successful investors focus on long-term strategies rather than short-term n

• Understanding the multifaceted nature of property is crucial for making informed decisions. 

• The importance of asset selection cannot be overstated in a fluctuating market. 

• Interest rates are expected to stabilise or decrease, impacting investor confidence. 

• Perth and Adelaide have shown strong performance due to affordability. 

• Investor behaviour can significantly influence market trends and property values. 

• Luck plays a role in property investing, but preparation and knowledge are essential.
