It's the huge sort of sentiment shock caused by the combination.
voice-verified
Of rate rises and tax changes, sort of one compounding the other.
voice-verified
And it's the lack of any sort of rebound to date.

So, you know, we heard at the summer that it's usually the investors that step in at times like this and they turn the price around.
voice-verified
So when the prices start, start going down, the investors are like, all right, good value there.

voice-verified

And then there's also changes to the SMSF rules, James, which kind of went unnoticed, but you effectively banned from borrowing to buy residential property inside your self-managed superfund, which has been meaningful as well.

voice-verified
I think we're sort of five, six months in from the March peak now.
voice-verified
So it is sort of getting to that date, but it's just that feeling in the market that brings those thoughts of recession.
voice-verified
And like you know, the thing is it's spring.
voice-verified
This is normally the busy time for them.
