As another year-end approaches, and we bombarded with year end shopping sales, we should not ignore the potential bargain corner of the property market.

December and January traditionally marks the calm before the inevitable storm that is the Australian property market.

Above are some reasons why you should organise your preapprovals now:

"Get It Done" Series - Buying Australian Property in 2022 - https://mailchi.mp/83babc3a4fab/australian-housing-market-update-with-tim-lawless-from-corelogic-5759824

Visiting all these iconic Australian sites reminds everyone here at JL Finance that we can go anywhere in the world but there truly is no other place quite like our unique, beautiful and abundant homeland.

Why is Australia such a sought after place to live in the world? We know it’s not just because of our giant avocados, endless stunning beaches and incredible weather.

Last month, the UN recently stated our great access to education, high life expectation and socioeconomic well-being makes Australia the second-best country in the world to live in, due to the excellent quality of life index.

Leaving you all to ponder with a favourite quote of ours: “A man travels the world over in search of what he needs and returns home to find it.” 🏡

There is no other place like home to celebrate Australia Day. It’s a day with a special meaning for Australians, spent with family and close knit circles over a traditional sizzling feast (or two). These precious times are the ultimate treasure of living, now more so than ever.

We wish you all a very safe and Happy Australia Day wherever you are in the world - filled with good times and creating the best memories with loved ones. Have a great one! 🇦🇺
