Welcome to Property Investor Tales, Stories From The Front Yard, where I talk to property investors from around Australia about their investing journey. My name is Emily Miller and I'm a property investment adviser here at Positive Real Estate, where we help people build wealth through property. With over 8000 clients across Australia and New Zealand, there are some incredible stories to tell, which hopefully make your investing journey that little bit easier. In this episode of Property Investor Tales, Emily Miller and Megan Wolfenden discuss the impact of market sentiment on property investment decisions. Megan emphasizes the importance of staying focussed and understanding historical market events, the need for education and mentorship and the significance of having a long-term strategy.  Emily and Megan both agree that, while you should stay informed, long-term strategies trump short-term news every time. The discussion also covers the necessity of maintaining focus amidst uncertainty and the role of financial buffers in successful property investment.
