Sydney - Population and Housing availability issues

population

7 News recently ran an excellent segment about the growing backlash over Sydney’s rapid population growth. #Sydney #NSW #Population #migrants#HomeOwners #Rental #FirstHomeBuyers

The segment touched on some of the major issues, including over-development (e.g. the proliferation of high-rise apartments), and pins the blame squarely on the federal government’s 200,000 strong mass immigration program.

As usual, there were comments from all spectrum of so called experts. Fake demographer, Mark McCrindle, argued that growth is unstoppable: “We can’t stop the growth. Sydney is the gateway to Australia. We are growing through national migration. We are growing through natural increase”.

Really? ABS’ population data clearly shows that net overseas migration is the overwhelming driver of NSW’s (Sydney’s) population. In fact, according to the NSW Government’s own projections, Sydney’s projected population increase over the next 20-years will be driven almost entirely by net overseas migration (i.e. 1.53 million out of 1.74 million).

Sydneysiders don’t want the city turning into a crowded, super expensive, high-rise hellhole. It’s about time our politicians heard the people's voices.

How to create more business is a question that’s on the minds of most individuals who are either in business or looking to open their own business.

People love dealing with Givers.  As a mortgage broker, one of my key observations was - Successful people were not the constant givers. You had to ask for an appointment, you had to meet with them to show that you are serious and that you care about the work you do. You had to then repeat it to be able to earn the business.

The really helpful ones, statistically, the ones consistently looking for ways to help others were finishing last – Refer to them as “Givers”. Now here’s the fascinating thing about people. Whilst Givers were over represented at the bottom, they were also over represented at the top of the success metrics.

Meaning whilst nice people do finish last, they also finish first.

What differentiates the first and last givers?

In the middle of the spectrum were the “Matchers” (people who balance giving and taking) and the “Takers” (people who selfishly try to get more and give less).
The key difference between the Givers who succeeded and the ones who ended up last, is that totally selfless Givers exhaust themselves helping others and end up being exploited by the Takers.
Whereas the winning Givers were able to create boundaries and felt no shame holding back when they needed to.
These results are consistent not only in sales but also across all industries. Creating boundaries is vital for playing the long game, especially in a service industry like ours.

Don't think that you need to accept every deal - not every deal is clean business. Never sacrifice your integrity or your happiness to please others. How far are you willing to go to help others? Let me know on 0425 341 086.

Sydney’s projected population increase over the next 20-years will be driven almost entirely by net overseas migration (i.e. 1.53 million or 77,000 people a year). We need to become a little bit more nimble and flexible with Family Visa, allowing other familywho live here to help the new comers.

We want to help the #FirstHomeBuyers – some who are born here, but now there are many who have migrated here. Banks are still using the same old credit methodology and the yard stick, for good credit. We need for all types of people to coexist – some who may never take on a mortgage but may buy a luxury car if they buy a car at a higher rate. Some people will work well into their 70’s, so they should be allowed to look at a 25 year loan term at age 50.
Responsible lending must and should exist, but so should options. Please comment as I am very keen to see some level of change in the products being offered in the market place.
I am a migrant, Australia is home and I wantto see it thrive, but we certainly need something more after the Mining boom.
Maybe like #ElonMusk says - we can produce energy and sell to China.

savingsWe all know that we should spend less and save more. Sometimes it is nor easy to save $50 or $100 every week. Here are a few ways to save by just rethinking a few everyday chores. #Energy #Energybills #Savings #money#budget

1) TURN OFF THE LIGHTS: I can't say this enough. Just turn off the various electronic devices when not in use. How many mobile chargers are left on even when your phones are unplugged. It is a slow drain of electricity,. Save money on your energy bills and save the environment.

2) Plan your meals around your grocery store’s flyer: Instead of creating your meal plan out of thin air, plan all your meals around what’s on sale in your grocery store’s flyer. Look at the biggest sales, then plan recipes based on those ingredients and what you have on hand.

3) Remove your credit card numbers from your online accounts: It’s easy to spend online when you have your card information stored in an account – just click and buy. The best way to break this habit is to simply delete your card from the account. This way you’ll be forced to spend the time to dig out your card – and really think about why you’re spending this money.

These are a few easy everyday tips. Talk to Madhu on 0425 341 086 for more easy savings tips and for financial planning advice.
