THIS is what to do if you’re in mortgage stress.

Property Buying Expert Pete Wargent and Rask founder Owen Rask talk about the latest news on inflation and what this means for you and your mortgage repayments, building insolvencies & how to get out of mortgage prison on this episode of “2 Sense”.

On this episode of The Australian Property Podcast Pete and Owen talk:

  • Proposed reform of the Reserve Bank of Australia –  what this means for homeowners (is this good or bad for me?)
  • The rise in construction insolvencies – with insolvencies higher than any point in the past decade the team discusses how this will disrupt supply & demand
  • Lending Trends – the good and bad news on inflation figures, what to do if you’re a mortgage prisoner about to be clobbered with higher rates and unable to refinance

As we are bombarded with news of the economy and how this may affect us, this episode should help demystify all the noise.
