  Season 7, Episode 32 - September Market Update 08.09.2026 25мин

  James Ridley is back on #AtlasExpatMortgages with Jeremy Harper for episode 32, 'September Market Update'. They unpack HSBC's $36 billion exit from Australian retail banking and what it means for the thousands of expats who bank and borrow with them. They break down what's changing, why now might be the right time to review your loan, and what to expect once Pepper Money takes over servicing next year. The conversation moves into the numbers shaping the spring selling season, surprising GDP growth, sticky inflation, and where NAB, Westpac, ANZ and CBA sit on the next RBA rate call. James and Jeremy also dig into the property market's regional divide, from Perth's runaway growth to Sydney and Melbourne's pullback, plus a live listener question on whether now's the time to buy an established home in Sydney from overseas. It's a fast-moving, practical update for any Australian expat trying to make sense of lending, rates, and property heading into the final months of the year.

  Season 7, Episode 26 - End of Financial Year (EOFY) Update 14.07.2026 29мин

  A new financial year, a new set of rules, and a lot to recalibrate. Atlas Wealth Group Managing Directors, James Ridley (APAC) and Jeremy Harper (Mortgages) take stock of a softening Sydney market, diverging capital city performance, and what rising rents mean for the RBA's next move. The bigger conversation, though, is structural: with the incoming CGT changes hitting non-resident property owners particularly hard, buying in a personal name is increasingly hard to justify. They unpack why company structures are becoming the default for expat investors, what lenders are doing about it, and what every expat with an existing loan should be doing right now as the new financial year kicks off.

  Season 7, Episode 25 - Budget and Market Updates June 2026 08.07.2026 27мин

  A lot has landed in a short space of time, and Australian expats need to pay attention. In this episode, Atlas Wealth Group Managing Directors, James Ridley (APAC) and Jeremy Harper (Mortgages) cut through a week of major policy shifts and market moves. They cover what softer inflation means for RBA expectations, why a weaker AUD is quietly working in expats' favour right now, and what the closure of SMSF residential lending means if you're mid-purchase. They also dig into the less-discussed consequences of the incoming CGT changes, specifically how inheritance, divorce, and relationship breakdown are caught in the new rules in ways most people haven't considered yet. Rounded out with real listener Q&As, this is essential listening if you're investing, borrowing, or planning a move in the next 12–18 months. Relevant Links:

  Season 7, Episode 16 - Melbourne Property, Lending Pressure & Rental Law Changes 29.04.2026 39мин

  In Episode 16 of the Expat Mortgage Podcast, host Jeremy Harper is joined by Daniel Stocco from Quixley Real Estate to unpack what’s really happening in Melbourne’s property market. They explore shifting buyer demand across inner-north suburbs, the emergence of a “K-shaped” market, and how affordability pressures and tighter lending conditions are influencing purchasing behaviour. The conversation also dives deep into Victoria’s latest rental reforms, including changes to evictions, rent increases, minimum standards, and tenant application rules — and what these mean for landlords, particularly Australian expats investing from abroad. To close, Jeremy and Daniel discuss current finance conditions, rising borrowing constraints, and whether Melbourne represents a buying opportunity or a market to wait on. A practical, on-the-ground update for expats, investors, and property owners navigating a rapidly changing market. Relevant Links:
