Some of our favorite quotes from the show:

“Eventually interest rates do their job and then the Reserve Bank has to lower them and we don't really know what that Goldilocks rate is, where it's not too high to dampen the economy but not too low to stimulate the economy.” – Michael Yardney

“If you look back over the last decade, rents haven't really kept up with inflation. So, it's not landlords taking advantage of tenants, it's just the market forces at the moment.” – Michael Yardney

“You only need one thing to succeed. Forget all the reasons why it won't work and believe in the one reason why it will.” – Michael Yardney
