At this time every year we get flooded with predictions about what’s next for Australia’s housing markets. Some of them are useful… a lot of them are noise. But every so often, a report comes along that genuinely moves the needle and helps us see the bigger picture. Domain’s Forecast Report 2026 is one of those. It paints a pretty fascinating story: record prices in every capital city, rents still on the rise, and perhaps the most powerful first-home buyer surge we’ve seen in decades. And it’s not just more of the same – the data suggests our markets...

You know how every summer Australians wander down to the beach, breathe in the salty air, have a few too many wines, and suddenly convince themselves that owning a holiday home is a brilliant investment strategy?

And today, I’m joined by Brett Warren, National Director of Property at Metropole, to unpack all the reasons why holiday homes almost always underperform, why the numbers never stack up, and what smarter investors are doing instead. Our discussion highlights the...

Lenders are changing their rules. Rates are sending mixed signals. Tax policy is tightening. The ATO is sharpening its pencils.

Negotiating is a part of living; we do it all the time. When you walk down a crowded street, you negotiate the path you take. A couple negotiates their relationship before and during marriage. Although you may not realise what’s happening, for example, you take out the garbage tonight and I will do the dishes. And of course of the negotiation is one of the skills developed by all savvy property investors and business people. Over the years I’ve noticed that some people are very good at getting terrific deals. Most others simply get what the other party is...

Debt is a word that makes most people nervous. We think of it as a burden, something to avoid at all costs. But what if we’ve been looking at it the wrong way? Today I’m joined by Professor John Dinsmore, marketing expert and author of the fascinating new book The Marketing of Debt.

info_outlineToday’s episode of the podcast is special because, if you're a property investor or planning to become one, we're going to uncover some shocking new rules that could cost you thousands, something all investors need to know, but we've found many don't know.
So I'm going to be chatting with the National Director of Metropole Property Management, Leanne Jopson, and we're going to talk about some of these new legislative changes.
Now, I'm sure you're aware the governments have implemented a series of legislative changes. State governments are seeming to change the rules over and over again. While the intention is to protect tenants, they've placed a much greater burden on landlords and property managers alike.
We're going to talk about government interference and some of the legislative changes, some of the burden of compliance, and I bet you didn't know the fines that you could face if your property doesn't meet minimum standards. I'll talk a bit about the rental markets and we're going to explain what you need to look for in a property manager.
