Realty Talk: Buy Now Pay Later Deposits + Video Transforms Rentals

Property author and industry leader Nicola McDougall have been announced as the new Chair of the Property Investment Professionals of Australia (PIPA).  Nicola joins Bushy to discuss PIPA’s continuing growth vision to protect property investors. Upfront deposits of up to $300k are a major hurdle that is preventing many Aussies from getting on the property ladder, but industry disruptor Ownhome has created a buy now pay later deposit model backed by the Commonwealth Bank that uses rent to own to get you into your home now. Cofounder James Bowe joins us to discuss the details. Since the onset of Covid, remote virtual video technology is now being used by top property managers to help both landlords advertise the property as well as tenants explore them.
