What does it mean for a suburb to be both liveable and affordable?

In this episode of Secrets of the Top 100 Agents, REB’s Juliet Helmke speaks with Dr Diaswati Mardiasmo, chief economist at PRD, to unpack the network’s latest report in a series its been issuing for 10 years, that defines not only the suburbs with a below-average price point, but those that also offer high amenity.

The duo discuss the market segments that have been gaining steam, and delve into how buyer preferences have been increasingly changing, with new attitudes to lifestyle set to define what’s selling in 2025.

Diaswati spotlights some of the surprising hotspots identified in the report across Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and beyond. She shares what the firm has learnt doing these reports over 10 years, and provides insight into what economic factors will define the market in the year ahead.
