  Jul 17, 202615 min

  In this episode, Dion sits down with Tim Wilson, Shadow Treasurer of Australia, to unpack what the federal budget really means for first home buyers and renters. They cover why building fewer homes and taxing investors harder could push rents and prices up, how the 5% deposit scheme has already inflated entry-level property prices, and why grandfathering old rules risks creating a two-tiered market that locks buyers out for longer. A candid, no-spin look at the policy behind the headlines.

  #37 The #1 Negotiation MISTAKE Buyers Make (And How To Avoid It)

  Jun 19, 20267 min

  Have you ever made an offer on a property, been told to "offer more," and then jumped up tens of thousands of dollars without knowing where the vendor actually stood? That's called double stepping, and it's one of the most common ways buyers cost themselves money at the negotiation table. In this episode of Own It, host Dion Marsden, a former real estate agent, breaks down exactly how double stepping works from the agent's side, why it benefits the seller when buyers fall for it, and the simple question you need to ask after every offer to protect yourself. You'll learn how to always secure a counter offer, how to use that information to negotiate with confidence, and why the party who keeps moving without getting anything back is the one who loses out. If you're planning to buy a property and negotiate directly with a vendor, this quick, practical episode could save you thousands. Plus, a look ahead to next episode covering self-managed super fund property purchases.
