From rising debt and unemployment to migration, gig workers, and buyer’s agents, Australia’s economic shifts are creating fresh questions about the strength of the property market and what comes next.
On Property Buzz, Phil Tarrant and Liam Garman examine the week’s biggest property and economic developments, connecting the dots between policy, jobs, migration, and what they could mean for the market.
The pair discuss Australia’s growing debt, pressure on state budgets and a cooling jobs market, questioning what weaker economic conditions could mean for interest rates, house prices, and household wealth.
They also turn to migration and remittances, the gig economy, and rising labour costs, examining how broader policy decisions could flow through to consumers, businesses, and the property market.
The conversation wraps with a look at the buyer’s agency sector, including the prospect of consolidation and why investors may need to look beyond bold market predictions when choosing who to trust with their next property move.
