Hosts Ciaran O'Brien and Peter O'Malley explore why Sydney’s property market continues to defy broader economic headwinds. As unemployment rises and central banks face pressure to balance inflation with growth, we examine how policy shifts, migration, and housing supply gaps are shaping today’s price dynamics.
We also discuss:
- Sydney’s housing resilience despite a softening national economy
- Central banks weighing inflation control against unemployment risks
- Imported inflation and the political pressures shaping RBA decisions
- Immigration settings fuelling demand without addressing skills shortages
- Construction sector strain from labour shortages and accreditation hurdles
- Vendor expectations outpacing genuine buyer depth
- First-home buyer incentives boosting activity at the lower end of the market
- Older walk-up apartments outperforming high-rise developments
- The ripple effect moving buyers across adjacent suburbs
- Investor yield realities and data distortions shaping perception vs. truth
