  • Australia’s Hottest Winter Property Market in Years – with Dr. Andrew Wilson
    This winter has shaped up as the strongest property market we’ve seen in a long time, with strong buyer activity and rising confidence cutting through the usual seasonal slowdown. In today's show Dr. Andrew Wilson and I discuss how results have been far from uniform – Sydney is surging ahead with particularly strong performance, while conditions across the other capitals are more varied, reminding us just how segmented Australia’s housing markets really are. We explore the impact of government initiatives for first home buyers, the performance of various regional markets, and the implications of inflation and interest rates on housing prices. The conversation concludes with an optimistic outlook for the housing market as it heads into the spring selling season.   Takeaways  ·         Interest rates have been cut, leading to increased buyer activity. ·         The property market is fragmented, with varying performance across regions. ·         Government schemes for first home buyers are expected to boost demand. ·         Brisbane is showing extraordinary growth in property prices. ·         Melbourne's market is recovering, particularly in the prestige segment. ·         Inflation concerns may impact future interest rate decisions. ·         The spring selling season is typically the strongest for property sales. ·         Lower interest rates are driving positive growth in the housing market. ·         The national median house price has seen consistent monthly rises. ·         Market conditions suggest a potential for double-digit growth in some areas.     Chapters  01:07 Introduction 01:45 Introduction to the Winter Property Market 04:02 Quarterly Median House Prices 09:57 Quarterly Median Unit Prices 13:02 First Home Owner Deposit Scheme 14:39 Property Values Forecast 17:14 Conclusions and Future Predictions   Links and Resources:   Answer this week’s trivia question here- www.PropertyTrivia.com.au ·         Win a hard copy of Michael Yardney's Guide to Investing. ·          Everyone wins a copy of a fully updated property report – What’s ahead for property for 2026 and beyond.   Get a bundle of eBooks and Reports at www.PodcastBonus.com.au   Get the team at Metropole to help build your personal Strategic Property Plan Click here and have a chat with us   Michael Yardney – Subscribe to my Property Update newsletter here    Also, please subscribe to my other podcast Demographics Decoded with Simon Kuestenmacher – just look for  Demographics Decoded wherever you are listening to this podcast and subscribe so each week we can unveil the trends shaping your future.

  • Planning Australia’s Future: It Starts with Where We Live, with Ross Elliott
    Today I’m joined by Ross Elli, a respected urban thinker and commentator, and we discuss something most politicians and planners are ignoring: the danger of concentrating 70% of Australia’s population into just eight capital cities, and doing it without a real plan. We explore the challenges of infrastructure, the concept of the missing middle in housing, and the need for a national settlement strategy to address the growing population and its impact on quality of life.   Whether you're a property investor, policymaker, or simply someone sitting in bumper-to-bumper traffic wondering where it all went wrong, this episode of the Michael Yardney Podcast is going to challenge the way you think about growth, planning, and the future of our cities.   Takeaways  ·         Australia's population growth is concentrated in a few major cities. ·         High-density living does not necessarily reduce traffic congestion. ·         There is a significant gap in housing supply and demand. ·         The concept of the 'missing middle' in housing is contentious. ·         Infrastructure development has not kept pace with population growth. ·         Regional centers can offer a better quality of life than major cities. ·         Government policies need to address urban planning holistically. ·         Decentralization strategies have not been effectively implemented in Australia. ·         Community opposition often hinders new housing developments. ·         A national settlement strategy is essential for sustainable growth.   Chapters    00:00 The Urban Dilemma: Population Growth and Infrastructure 07:31 The Myths of Density and Urban Planning 12:38 The Missing Middle: Densification Challenges 17:55 Regional Opportunities: Rethinking Settlement Strategies 23:08 Decentralization: Lessons from the Past 28:18 Future Visions: A Balanced Australia   Links and Resources:   Answer this week’s trivia question here- www.PropertyTrivia.com.au ·         Win a hard copy of Michael Yardney's Guide to Investing.

  • Renovate to Elevate: Unlocking Value in Investment Properties with Greg Hankinson
    Have you ever looked at a tired old property and thought, “There’s potential there,” but weren’t quite sure what to do with it? Well, today’s show could be the spark you need. Because we’re talking about one of the most powerful – and underutilised – strategies for building wealth through property: strategic renovation. In a world where construction costs are soaring and affordability is stretched, more investors are realising that they don’t have to wait for the market to deliver capital growth – they can manufacture it themselves. And joining me to unpack this is Greg Hankinson – property renovations and development expert and director of Metropole Developments. Greg’s seen it all – from simple kitchen facelifts to full-scale value-add renovations through to medium density developments, and he’s here to share his experience, tips, and insights to help you make your next investment a profitable one. We talk through the key fundamentals of a profitable renovation, how to assess a property’s potential, the pros and cons of reno vs. new build, and how many successful developers started by simply buying, renovating, and holding.   Takeaways  ·         You can create wealth through renovations, not just market appreciation. ·         The renovation process requires careful planning and understanding of costs. ·         Successful renovations can lead to significant increases in property value. ·         It's essential to identify properties with renovation potential. ·         Avoid common mistakes like overcapitalizing or DIYing without experience. ·         Understanding local regulations and permits is crucial for renovations. ·         Market conditions can affect the feasibility of renovation projects. ·         Investing in renovations can provide better rental yields and lower vacancy rates. ·         A strategic approach to property investment is necessary for long-term success.   Chapters  00:00 Unlocking Property Potential through Strategic Renovations 01:56 Introduction to Renovations and Property Development 04:43 Understanding the Profitability of Renovations 10:12 Financing Renovations and Building Equity 12:29 Common Mistakes in Renovation Projects 17:57 Assessing Renovation Potential in Properties 20:36 Opportunities in the Current Market 23:15 Conclusion and Future Steps in Property Development   Answer this week’s trivia question here- www.PropertyTrivia.com.au ·         Win a hard copy of Michael Yardney’s Guide to Investing ·         Everyone wins a copy of a fully updated property report – What’s ahead for property for 2026 and beyond   Join us at the Ultimate Property Development Workshop in Melbourne on November 8th Click here for all the details https://realestateworkshop.com.au/   Greg Hankinson -  Director, Metropole Constructions    Interested in getting involved at the “wholesale” end of the property market?

  • The Housing Time Bomb: Can Australia Keep Up with Its Population Boom? | With Simon Kuestenmacher
    Imagine inviting thousands of people to a party… but forgetting to organise enough food, chairs, or bathrooms. That’s essentially what Australia is doing by ramping up migration while failing to plan for the housing and infrastructure to support it. Today, Simon Kuestenmacher and I discuss why we can’t keep separating housing policy from migration policy. The conversation around our housing crisis is often framed around interest rates, investors, or planning delays. But there’s a critical dimension we keep avoiding: Australia’s housing and migration policies are completely out of sync, and this is causing systemic damage.   Takeaways  ·         Australia is experiencing a housing crisis due to rapid migration without adequate infrastructure. ·         Every decision contributes to the future we build, akin to laying bricks in a house. ·         The disconnect between housing and migration policies is creating significant challenges. ·         Young people and low-income earners are increasingly priced out of the housing market. ·         Government policies need to be proactive rather than reactive to address housing shortages. ·         The current planning system is outdated and hinders timely housing development. ·         Property taxes are a major contributor to housing unaffordability. ·         A national housing target linked to migration levels could stabilize the market. ·         Lessons from other countries show the importance of strategic migration policies. ·         Long-term planning is essential for sustainable urban development and infrastructure.     Chapters  00:00 - Migration Without Infrastructure 04:01 - What's been happening to immigration 08:43 - Property Taxes 09:00 - Housing Affordability Crisis 15:48 - Housing Demand Caused by the Migration 24:52 - Infrastructure Planning Area 33:55 - Final Thoughts   Links and Resources:   Answer this week’s trivia question here- www.PropertyTrivia.com.au ·         Win a hard copy of Michael Yardney’s Guide to Investing Successfully ·         Every entry receives a copy of a fully updated Michael Yardney Property Report   Michael Yardney Get the team at Metropole to help build your personal Strategic Property Plan Click here and have a chat with us   Simon Kuestenmacher: Australia’s leading demographer and partner in the Demographics Group   Get a bundle of eBooks and Reports at www.PodcastBonus.com.au   Also, please subscribe to my other podcast, Demographics Decoded with Simon Kuestenmacher – just look for Demographics Decoded wherever you are listening to this podcast and subscribe so each week we can unveil the trends shaping your future.
