Chris Bates returns to the studio, and this time Chris and Cate chat about some common mistakes that buyers make; particularly at the planning phase. They kick off the conversation around holiday houses and challenge some popular trends that have gripped since COVID struck our shores.

Chris, (in his ever-pragmatic way) offers our listeners some great tips, and as always; he introspectively shares his own weaknesses when it comes to holiday houses.

"....you fall in love with the fantasy, not the logistics."

Chris' financial planning sensibility, combined with his willingness to ask the burning questions make for a wonderful episode.

Cate and Chris crossed paths some ten years ago and the pair have remained firm friends as their individual businesses have flourished.

We hope you enjoy!
