He reveals exactly why falling borrowing capacity, poorly timed tax policy, and a looming recession are set to push property prices down by up to 10% across major capitals.The Australian real estate market has reached a dangerous inflection point. With the RBA at its highest cash rate in 15 years and investor borrowing capacity slashed by up to 30%, the widening gap between soaring property prices and the real capacity to pay cannot hold. The capital gains tax, property Australia reforms and negative gearing changes have landed at the worst possible moment, piling more downward pressure onto a market already at its cyclical peak.Australia is tracking dangerously close to New Zealand's trajectory, where identical policy changes triggered a sharp property crash before the incoming government reversed course. The 25-year supercycle of rising property values relative to incomes is likely over. Brisbane sits at its most overvalued level in 50 years relative to other capitals. The Melbourne property market is the cheapest major capital in 50 years. Consumer sentiment is near 50-year lows, construction costs are up 40% since the pandemic, and rental vacancy rates have hit their lowest point in recorded history.What you'll learn in this episode: ✅ Why Australia is heading for its biggest property correction in 40 years ✅ How capital gains tax and negative gearing changes have crushed investor borrowing capacity by up to 30%✅ The New Zealand precedent and what it signals for Australian property investment in 2025 ✅ Brisbane vs Melbourne: which capital is dangerously overvalued and which presents the hidden opportunity ✅ Why surging construction costs are deepening the rental crisis and stifling new supply ✅ What RBA rate cuts will and will not save for property investorsTimestamps:00:00 - Australia's Biggest Property Correction in 40 Years01:35 - Capital Gains Tax & Negative Gearing: The Policy Shock04:25 - The New Zealand Precedent12:21 - What Actually Moves Property Prices17:07 - Credit Availability & Borrowing Capacity Collapse19:14 - RBA Rate Cuts & Recession Risk24:29 - Brisbane vs Melbourne: Which Market Wins?33:15 - Is This Worse Than 2018?45:48 - Rental Crisis & Construction Collapse50:04 - Wrap Up & Part 2 PreviewFollow Leith Van Onselen:YouTube:  @Leithvo  Business: https://www.macrobusiness.com.au/About The Follio Property PodcastEach week, Reece Beddall and Lachlan Delahunty break down the biggest conversations shaping Australian property.

Melbourne posted a 0.7% fall, with clearance rates struggling at 53%. At the same time, CBA has slashed its growth forecast from 5% down to 3% for 2026 and 2027, citing mounting pressure on Australia's two largest cities.But while Sydney and Melbourne softened, Perth surged 1.5%, Brisbane climbed 0.8%, and Adelaide added 0.7% in the same month.

Property expert Josh Coleman joins the Follio Property Podcast to reveal exactly why the combination of budget policy changes, investor-heavy buyer pools, and the collapse of the "greater fool theory" is about to reset regional values across Australia.The Australian property market 2026 looks radically different for anyone holding regional assets compared to just 18 months ago. Josh Coleman maps out the risk profile of every major Queensland regional market using hard data. Markets like Gladstone and Mackay, where investor transactions dominate at over 70%, have been propped up by speculative buyer chains rather than genuine occupier demand.The housing market in Australia 2026 is not uniformly at risk. Townsville, with its defence spending and diversified economy, carries a different risk profile to Mackay. Toowoomba's metropolitan character provides another buffer. But for most pure regional markets across Queensland property market corridors, the expert warning is clear: reduce exposure before the Senate finalises the policy.What we have covered in this episode:✅ Why regional Queensland is the highest-risk asset class in Australia right now ✅ The policy double-hit: losing both negative gearing AND capital gains benefits simultaneously ✅ How Gladstone and Mackay rely on speculative investor chains with no owner-occupier floor ✅ Why Townsville is more resilient than Mackay despite both being regional markets TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 Intro 01:38 Post-Budget Sentiment: How Clients, Agents and Media Are Reacting 07:51 The Biggest Risks for Investors Under the New Conditions 08:21 Why Regional Markets Are the Most Dangerous Play Right Now 15:09 House and Land Packages and the Greenfield Estate Trap 17:35 Gold Coast: Boom, Bust and the Off-the-Plan Danger 20:42 Sunshine Coast vs Gold Coast: Which Market Has a Floor 23:42 Brisbane Post-Budget: Olympics Hype vs Structural Reality 24:03 Brisbane Eastern Suburbs: Why the Smart Money Is Here 27:19 Brisbane Market Segmentation: Which Tier to Target in 2026 33:38 Where to Invest in Brisbane Right Now 34:20 The Next Buyer Framework: How to Think About Your Exit Strategy Follow Josh Coleman:BuyWise: https://www.buywiseproperty.com.au/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joshua-coleman-3334ba27/About The Follio Property PodcastEach week, Reece Beddall and Lachlan Delahunty break down the biggest conversations shaping Australian property.

Rents are about to surge 30%... and prices are about to explode.Negative gearing is gone. CGT is restructured. And if history repeats and the data says it will, the Australian property market is entering its most volatile period since 1985.In this episode, Reece Beddall and Lachlan Delahunty cut through the political noise with hard data and zero opinion. Drawing on $687M+ in real property transactions and two of the most powerful historical case studies in Australian real estate, the 1985 Hawke-Keating era and New Zealand's 2021 experiment, they reveal exactly who wins, who loses, and the only property investment strategy that survives Budget 2026.This isn't commentary. This is the data most property experts won't show you.The last time Australia scrapped negative gearing, rents surged 30% in capital cities within 2 years. Sydney and Brisbane prices jumped 60%. Perth hit 100%. New Zealand did the same in 2021, and rents rose 30% before the policy was reversed in 2023. The pattern is undeniable. For mum-and-dad investors relying on the old "buy, hold and hope" model, this budget is a wakeup call. The gap between sophisticated investors and passive ones just got significantly wider. The question is: which side are you on?VALUE BREAKDOWN✅ Why Budget 2026 is the single biggest shift in Australian real estate in 40 years✅ The New Zealand & 1985 Australia case studies and what they predict for rents and prices RIGHT NOW✅ Why outer fringe and new-build investors face the highest risk under the new rules✅ The death of the "buy, hold and hope" strategy and the sophisticated approach that replaces it✅ Why blue-chip locations (5–20km from CBD) are now non-negotiable for capital growth 🕐 TIMESTAMPS 0:00 Intro: Why Budget 2026 changes everything05:25 What actually changed: Negative gearing & CGT explained simply09:37 The New Zealand case study: 30% rent surge in 2 years11:32 The 1985 Australia case study: Sydney +60%, Perth +100%14:36 The danger zones: outer fringe and new builds18:42 Who will lobby to reverse this, and your investment timeline20:43 CGT deep dive: the $42K tax reality on a $700K gain24:38 The death of the lazy investor, what replaces buy, hold and hope25:09 The winning strategy: blue-chip, infill, landlockedAbout the Follio Property Podcast Each week, Reece Beddall & Lachlan Delahunty break down the biggest conversations shaping Australian property.
