REB’s editorial team unite to unpack the tenuous political landscape that’s currently at play across Australia.

Host Grace Ormsby is joined by journalists Juliet Helmke and Kyle Robbins to recount the federal and state government developments that have taken place over the last week, most notably as they relate to the Housing Australia Future Fund and the rental crisis plaguing the nation.

The trio unpack the various power plays currently being made by state and federal politicians while acknowledging their wide-reaching impact on Australia’s housing markets, before turning their attention to the RBA’s wielding of power when it comes to national property policies.

In this episode you will also hear:

  • What is driving the rift between Labor and the Greens
  • How rent caps and freezes could come into play
  • Why the RBA must recognise its role in housing policies
