Should you buy a home or rent?27.12.2025 (00:30:47)
In this Australian Property Podcast episode, your hosts Pete Wargent from Allen Wargent Property Buyers and Chris Bates from Alcove Mortgage Brokers discuss this key topic. In this episode, they dive into one of Australia's most heated debates. That is, should you buy a home to build stability and equity capital gains tax free, or "rent-vest" (rent in your desired location while investing the savings in high-growth assets like property or shares)? With median house prices hovering around $1 million nationally and rents up again this year, it’s not always an easy choice. Drawing from market data, expert insights, and real-world scenarios, Pete and Chris explore pros, cons, and strategies amid falling interest rates, stabilising rents, and regional hotspots.

Group, experience, how long in business? Main shareholders? How much under management? 3 What kind of returns can I really expect? How do you get target rates like this – well above the cash rate - without risky or volatile investments? No free lunches - Duration tolerance? What if I need my money out earlier? Is it illiquid? Can I add to or withdraw from my balance during a Term? What happens at the end of the Term? 4 Banks have a deposit guarantee. You aren’t a bank. Do you eat your own cooking? Is my capital at risk? Have you ever missed a target rate monthly payment? How safe is my money from market crashes? What are the risks? 5 Do I need to be a sophisticated investor to invest in this? Do we need to be able to understand a complicated prospectus? 6 Do you have any customer reviews? Where can we go to read more? How do I manage my account? Are there account fees? Fee structure? How do you get paid?
