Everyone says Australia’s property market is cooling. The problem? The headlines are telling only half the story, and investors buying into the panic could be looking in all the wrong places.
On Property Buzz, Phil Tarrant and Liam Garman rip into the biggest myths driving Australia’s property market, arguing that the country’s housing story is becoming more divided than ever, with winners and losers emerging simultaneously.
The duo reveals why Brisbane, Adelaide, and Perth continue to push ahead while Sydney and Melbourne slow, exposing how relying on national headlines could lead investors to make costly decisions.
Attention then turns to the federal government’s latest property reforms, with Tarrant warning they could backfire spectacularly by squeezing housing supply, making development harder and creating the very affordability problems they were meant to solve.
The episode finishes with one of the industry’s biggest controversies, as Tarrant and Garman question whether some high-volume buyer agencies are manufacturing competition, inflating demand and putting business growth ahead of their clients.
