The Michael Yardney Podcast | Property Investment, Success & Money Michael Yardney; Australia's authority in wealth creation through property

Today I'd like to explain to you why our housing crisis is going to expose some of the flaws in the quick-fix solutions our major political parties are telling us is going to solve the housing crisis.
I was writing a blog about this, and thought I've got to discuss it with you now. As a regular listener, you'd know I normally have guests on the show, but it's just me and you every now and then. And that's what this show is today, as I want to get out some thoughts about why our housing crisis will become a fierce political battle, and that could have major implications leading right up to the next election.
Both parties the major parties have come up with some ideas and they just don't cut it. So, if you're interested in property, as an investor, or as a home buyer, I hope I'm going to give you some insights into what's ahead and what not to believe when the media tells you.

There are 106 suburbs across Australia that are cheaper today than they were five years ago, new analysis shows, despite house and unit prices doubling at the same time.
That’s one of the reports from Domain that I’m going to chat about today with Dr. Nicola Powell, Domain’s Chief of Research and Economics, and we will also discuss Domain’s latest reports covering the latest developments in our housing and rental markets and much more
As somebody interested in property, you're probably pleased that we’ve now had 16 months of continuous property, price, and rental growth, but can this continue? Is it sustainable? And what’s ahead for our housing markets?
These are also some of the questions I’m going to be asking Nicola today.
Whether you're a prospective homebuyer looking for valuable insights, a seasoned investor seeking to navigate the market confidently, or simply curious about the current state of Australian real estate, I’m sure you’ll get some great insights from my chat with Nicola.

Only a few months ago, there was talk about the hope of interest rates starting to fall by the middle of this year. Australia’s biggest bank in CBA suggested there could be six cuts in interest rates over the next two years.
And then things changed, inflation remained more stubborn and the economy grew strongly and suddenly there was talk of potential interest rate rises.
What’s ahead for interest rates and our property markets?
There are clues in the news as to what’s ahead, which I will discuss in this month’s podcast with leading financial commentator Pete Wargent, who brings decades of perspective to his views.
As always, we will discuss a raft of macro and micro economic factors that should give you clues as to what’s ahead for our housing markets.

Over the past few years we've witnessed a whirlwind of changes, particularly in the mortgage market.
Mortgage rates have skyrocketed, soaring from 2.9% in April 2022 to a staggering 6.4% today.
And if that wasn't enough, the rental crisis has reached new heights, with vacancy rates plummeting to record lows nationwide, causing rents to skyrocket.
In the face of these mounting pressures, purchasing an apartment has become a viable solution for some.
However, this seemingly attractive option comes with its challenges with a severe shortage of apartments nationwide.
It’s a topic at the forefront of discussions among investors, developers, and policymakers alike.
To unpack this further, I'm joined by Richard Temlett, the National Executive Director of Research at property consultants and valuers Charter Keck Cramer.
We'll explore the dynamics of the current apartment market, understand the factors driving the shortage, and dissect the trends in both the build-to-rent and build-to-sell sectors.
Whether you are a property investor, apartment owner, or Real Estate enthusiast, I’m sure you will get some benefit out of our chat today.
