GET YOUR SHIRTS OFF FOR THE BOYS

Martin asks the question does this sell papers or put people off buying them?
One or two on the acc forum have said before they won't be buying their papers.
I for one will not only NOT buy their paper but I will avoid ever clicking on any ad link from any on-line page i view of theirs too. its a small gesture but others who feel as strongly might consider the same.

Reference things I wanna watch, reference girls I wanna bite

Can't seem to get the link to work - wonder if it's a location thing.

Serepisos went bankrupt following the GFC. He has now repurchased Century Hotel (presumably on significant debt), at a time were global interest rates are rising, property prices are on the verge of collapse, we have persistently high consumer price inflation and supply-side shocks, etc. In other words, the current era is eerily familiar to the early contagion period of the GFC.
So this could lead him to going bankrupt, again...? Risky time to buy commercial real estate on leverage is all I'm saying...

Some brave bank or money lender must have thought it was a good idea!

How bankrupt was he really though? I saw him several months after the bankruptcy announcement hiring the Penthouse at SkyCity Grand Hotel

He was as bankrupt as required to be. He was smart enough to have a lot of his cash and assets not listed under his name but other business and entities which he had limited responsibility (liability) for. Bankruptcy only really stopped him being a director of any new companies and that the current bankrupt company had to cease trading. He's clear of that now and got funding from an aussie bank to buy "his" hotel back.

He was trading while insolvent and spending millions on the Nix even though he couldn't even pay the guy who was cleaning his pool (literally), let alone all the tradespeople he didn't pay, as well as the millions he owed to the IRD.
He took a lot of people down with him, but afterwards was still driving his jaguar and going on overseas holidays whereas the people who worked for him lost everything.
If he tries to make a comeback as a property developer he's going to struggle as there won't be a lot of trust in him from the industry.
I feel like real estate investors have no understanding of the macroeconomy or monetary policy. We are in a global interest rate tightening cycle, where central banks are withdrawing liquidity for the financial system. We just had negative GDP growth in the last quarter in New Zealand. If the next GDP quarter print is negative, we are 'technically-speaking' in a recession. All the while we have somewhat record-high consumer price inflation. A recession + high inflation = Stagflation.
This is, in my humble opinion, a terrible time to buy property - whether residential or commercial. I feel like property markets have a way to go in terms of price declines, and we are already starting to see the signs of this in New Zealand. It could get very ugly.
This comment is not necessarily to do with Terry Serepisos. I don't know much about him, I'm sure he's a decent guy. I'm grateful that he funded the Phoenix initially, and will always be appreciative of that. However, IMO this is a very very rough time to leverage up and buy very expensive real estate.
