Hi All,
I have been doing a bit of research whilst looking for properties.
I have noted the following in the last month:
1. Confidence is now flowing thorughout the economy. People are now out bidding each other again at auctions. Business are now looking to hire. The US unemployment actually dropped!
2. I contacted the agents regarding a few deals this weekend....on the calls I got back most have sold or are under offer.
3. The RBA and the govt. are preparing us for rates rises!
I have a sneaking suspicion that we will see rates head up around Oct./Nov. if this renewed confidence continues.
As a resutl I have fixed my rates....some on this forum will think I am silly...but I have seen this before.
The govt. & RBA will act decisively to contain inflation....so plan for 2% increase that the RBA has mapped out over the next 2 years.
I believe it will come sooner than most here think!
Would love to hear what others think...
