About The Property Trio
Formerly The Property Planner, Buyer and Professor, our show rebranded in 2023 to The Property Trio. Residential property is the only asset class we live in, it is where we raise our families, and it is our most expensive investment, yet property advice remains unregulated. Our objective is to educate time-poor professionals through deep insights from our experts who have provided thousands of Australians with personalised advice and education spanning two decades. In a climate where we are overloaded with information and one size fits all recommendations from the media, well-meaning friends and family and so-called advisers, we will distill the raw truth from the ill-informed. So join the Property Planner, David Johnston, The Property Buyer, Cate Bakos and the Quantity Surveyor, Mike Mortlock as they take you on a journey of discovery through the maze of property, mortgage, and money decisions to empower you to create your ideal lifestyle!

#384: Smart Mortgage Strategies to Stay Afloat When Interest Rates Hit a 15-Year High
Published 19 Oct 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] But this is the part where people need to be really careful because debt consolidation can also go very wrong if you're not on top of it. The big trap is that point of stretching shorter term debt over the longer 30 year loan term. That is a key point. Dave there, because if you think about something that you might have a credit card debt, you're going to pay it off over three or four years. It might be stinging you a fair bit per month and you think, I'll roll that into a 30-year home loan and the number is less per month, so I'm saving money.
