2025/08/27

Today I’m joined by Ross Elli, a respected urban thinker and commentator, and we discuss something most politicians and planners are ignoring: the danger of concentrating 70% of Australia’s population into just eight capital cities, and doing it without a real plan. We explore the challenges of infrastructure, the concept of the missing middle in housing, and the need for a national settlement strategy to address the growing population and its impact on quality of life.

Imagine inviting thousands of people to a party… but forgetting to organise enough food, chairs, or bathrooms. That’s essentially what Australia is doing by ramping up migration while failing to plan for the housing and infrastructure to support it. Today, Simon Kuestenmacher and I discuss why we can’t keep separating housing policy from migration policy. The conversation around our housing crisis is often framed around interest rates, investors, or planning delays. But there’s a critical dimension

2025/08/13

What happens when the Great Australian Dream becomes a financial nightmare? In 2025, buying your first home in Australia has become less of a rite of passage and more of a high-stakes gamble. Record-high deposits, sky-high property prices, and mortgage repayments eating up more than 30% of many buyers’ income - it’s no wonder almost half of all first home buyers now regret their decision.

2025/08/11

There’s a lot of noise out there right now — the media, politicians, and even Sunday BBQ conversations seem to revolve around one central villain: the property investor. Apparently, we’re to blame for housing unaffordability, rising rents, and locking young people out of the market. But is that really fair? Because when you scratch below the surface, you realise that property investors are not the problem — in fact, we’re a critical part of the housing solution. Today I’m joined by Brett Warren,

2025/08/06

Have you ever wondered why some people seem to effortlessly build wealth through real estate while others spend their entire lives working hard, only to end up financially stuck? The truth is that most Australians won’t ever achieve genuine financial independence. Sure, they’ll retire... eventually. But for many, that just means swapping full-time work for full-time worry — especially with rising living costs, uncertain super balances, and a whole lot of financial unknowns. But there’s a group

Have you noticed how Australia’s property market seems to have roared back to life recently? After a sluggish 2024, Domain’s latest House Price Report shows all eight capital cities recorded house price growth in the June quarter – for the first time in four years. And it’s not just houses. Unit prices are surging too, often outpacing houses as buyers chase affordability. So what’s behind this rebound? Rate cuts, increased demand, and a lingering supply shortage have all played a role. But is

We’re now on the brink of what could be the biggest shake-up to the Australian tax system since the GST was introduced back in 2000. Federal Treasurer Jim Chalmers has signalled that tax reform is not just on the agenda - it’s a priority. But what kind of reform are we really talking about here? If you dig beneath the headlines, this isn’t just about closing loopholes, it’s about reshaping how wealth is taxed and redistributed in a very different economic and demographic Australia.

We’ve all heard the phrase “rent money is dead money,” right? But is it really? As property prices surge and affordability challenges mount—especially for younger Australians—a growing number of people are turning to an alternative path: rentvesting. That’s where you rent the home you live in and invest in a property elsewhere. Is this just a clever workaround, or is it a genuinely smart wealth-building strategy? In today’s episode I’m joined once again by Stuart Wemyss to explore this in depth. And

It’s a startling claim, but one backed by data from the Housing Industry Association — and it sheds new light on why housing affordability is getting worse, not better. Today, I’m joined by Tim Reardon, Chief Economist at the HIA, to unpack this extraordinary insight.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re playing a game of property monopoly in Australia, but someone else got to pass “Go” decades before you and now owns half the board, you’re not imagining it. That “someone else”? It's the Baby Boomers. They’ve won the property game in Australia. Not just because they got in early, but because the rules of the game have increasingly worked in their favour, at the expense of younger generations. Today leading demographer Simon Kuestenmacher and I chat about whether the
