In this Macro Insights Podcast, Ken Raiss and I examine the big picture and share our perspective on how this may impact our housing markets in Australia, as well as what, if anything, you should do as a property investor.
We discuss what’s ahead for interest rates, and clues in the news about economic indicators and consumer behaviour.
We examine the dynamics of supply and demand, the influence of household wealth, and the importance of demographics in property investment.
As somebody interested in property, there will be lots in the show for you.
