info_outlineWho could've predicted what happened last year? We began 2020 with high hopes and a positive outlook for the Australian property market, after the lows of 2019. Then came COVID-19, which threw everything we thought that was possible right out the window. Panic ensued and the real estate market came to a halt, especially in Melbourne. But as the year progressed and restrictions were lifted, the urge to upgrade and/or buy a first home became imperative, but vendors were concerned about selling in an unpredictable market. This led to a severe lack of supply.
Now, with Q1 of 2021 behind us, the property market is thriving with historic clearance rates and FOMO rampant across the nation.
In this annual episode, we cover the experts and property pundits who were brave or foolish enough to forecast the year that was. Who got it right and who got it wrong? Which voices potentially impacted the market, and what role did the media play amplifying their opinions and even causing panic?
We hope to answer the question: where can you get good advice during a volatile situation?
