A core focus of the podcast has been to uncover who you can trust and who should you avoid when buying property. Today we are joined by Daniel Butkovich, Money & Advice Editor at Domain. He writes about buying, selling, renovating and investing in property to help educate people, whether they’re just starting out or have owned property for a while, with the aim of helping to inspire confidence in all life’s property decisions. The Australian property market is highly unregulated despite being the preferred investment vehicle for millions of Australians. In such a prosperous but uncontrolled market how do property buyers looking to purchase their first or next set of bricks and mortar do so safely? What should buyers avoid and who should they talk to when mapping out their movements in the market?
