In this week’s episode of the Australian Property Podcast, Pete Wargent and Chris Bates unpack a volatile week in global markets and what it might mean for Australian housing. From oil price shocks and inflation fears to population shifts and investor behaviour, they explore why short-term uncertainty rarely changes the long-term structural drivers of property markets Together, they discuss: - Sudden oil price spikes briefly shake financial markets - Global supply shocks, inflation pressures and potential interest rate hikes could influence housing sentiment without necessarily changing long-term property demand. - Migration patterns are intensifying rental shortages and housing pressure in those states. - Why investors approaching retirement are increasingly selling property assets, particularly negatively geared units that generate little cashflow in retirement. - The growing divide between generations. - How market uncertainty often reduces listings rather than demand - The hidden costs of moving house in Australia. - Listener Q&A Resources for this episode Ask a question (select the Property podcast) Rask Resources Pete's Buyers Agency Alcove mortgage broking Amy Lunardi Buyers Agency (Melbourne) All services Financial Planning Invest with us Access Show Notes Ask a question We love feedback!
