    Market Watch Episode 29 + Budget - Finance Impact

    In this Market Watch June episode, Debra from Property Frontline is joined by new build specialist Scott Hochgesang and mortgage broker Darryl Mutch from Mutch Financial Services to unpack how the latest data to 31 May 2026 and how the Federal Budget tax changes are reshaping Australia's property market. They break down price movements across Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, Canberra, Perth, Hobart and Darwin, and what's really happening on the ground across different price brackets, from sub-$1m buyer hotspots to emerging opportunities in the $3m+ segment. Darryl explains how the federal budget changes are impacting property owners and buyers' access to finance and how this will change the property market in the next six to 12 months. The team also discussed the different approach owners and buyers might take with property due to the changes introduced in the Federal Budget. This includes rental trends, self-managed super fund lending, commercial property options and key strategies for existing investors, new investors, upgraders and tenants navigating the new rules. If you're planning to buy, build a portfolio or pivot your investment strategy post-budget, this episode helps you understand the real numbers and your next steps.
