Why Most Australians Never Build Real Wealth – And How To Get Ahead
Property Investment, Success & Money | The Michael Yardney Podcast
Today’s show is going to hit close to home for a lot of Australians. Because despite living in one of the richest countries on the planet, the vast majority of Aussies are quietly battling something uncomfortable – the inability to actually build their wealth. We’re working harder than ever. We’re earning more than ever. But most households still feel like they’re running on a treadmill. Why is that? Well, it’s rarely about income. It’s rarely about intelligence. It’s rarely about effort. Today I’m joined by Australia’s leading...

How Can Property Prices Keep Rising When So Many Australians Can’t Afford to Buy?
Property Investment, Success & Money | The Michael Yardney Podcast
Have you ever looked at today’s property prices and wondered, How is this even possible? How can values keep climbing when interest rates are still high, affordability is stretched to breaking point, and so many Australians feel locked out of the market? You’re not alone. It feels counterintuitive. It feels unfair. And for many, it feels completely unsustainable. But here’s the uncomfortable truth about our housing market - and it’s the part most people don’t want to hear. Property prices don’t rise because the average Australian can afford them. They rise...

Why Brisbane Might Not Be the Best Place to Invest in Property Right Now, with Brett Warren
Property Investment, Success & Money | The Michael Yardney Podcast
Everywhere you look, people are talking about the Brisbane property market. The Olympics are coming, property prices have surged, and there’s this growing belief that Brisbane is the place to be for investors right now. In fact, it's not just Brisbane, but a whole swag of new and let me call them inexperienced buyers agents are suggesting buying in regional areas of northern Queensland. But history tells us something interesting - when everyone’s talking about a market, it’s often already too late. So, is Brisbane still a smart investment play, or has the...

2025 Surprised Property Investors - Will 2026 Be Worse or Better? Dr Andrew Wilson
Property Investment, Success & Money | The Michael Yardney Podcast
At the end of 2025, Australian property investors were hearing two very different stories. On the one hand, we’ve seen strong price growth across most capital cities; rents were still painfully high for tenants, and auction clearance rates were holding up surprisingly well. On the other hand, we were being warned about rising unemployment, sticky inflation, higher building costs, and plenty of noise about what could go wrong in 2026. So what’s really happening beneath the headlines? And more importantly, what does it mean for investors, home buyers and property markets...

The RBA’s Tightrope: What It Means for 2026 & What it means for Property Investors | Ken Raiss
Property Investment, Success & Money | The Michael Yardney Podcast
Today Ken Raiss and I zoom out from the noise, unpack what’s really going on beneath the surface, and help you make sense of the shifting forces shaping our economy, our property markets, and your long-term wealth. The RBA wrapped up the year with a steady hand, but the tone behind that decision has raised more than a few eyebrows. Sure inflation is easing… except where it’s not. Growth is soft… except where it matters. And the Board is hinting that some of these price pressures may be more persistent than we hoped. So the narrative of “rate cuts in 2026” suddenly...

The Property Scorecard for 2025 - Who Won, Who Lost, Who Missed Out | Dr. Andrew Wilson
Property Investment, Success & Money | The Michael Yardney Podcast
Over the past year we’ve been told affordability would cap prices, that demand would fade, that higher costs of living would finally slow housing down. And yet, here we are – national home prices finishing the year almost 10 per cent higher, with some capital cities recording extraordinary double-digit growth. So what really happened? In today’s episode, we’re stepping away from opinions and into the evidence as Dr Andrew Wilson unpacks his end-of-December House Price Report, and it reveals not just where prices moved in 2025, but why they moved, and what that means as we...

Property Investment, Success & Money | The Michael Yardney Podcast
The world’s changing faster than ever, isn’t it? Technology, AI, shifting markets, changing values – sometimes it feels like we can’t keep up. But in a world that never stops changing… there are still some things that never change. And when it comes to building wealth through property, understanding what doesn’t change might be even more important than trying to predict what will.
