Property Investment, Success & Money | The Michael Yardney Podcast What’s Ahead for Property? Key Trends Shaping Our Markets | Big Picture Podcast with Pete Wargent
In today’s Big Picture episode of the Michael Yardney Podcast, Pete Wargent and I discuss a raft of macro factors that will affect how our property markets play out this year, including the implications of the first rate cut by the RBA, our plunging vacancy rates which are only going to make rents rise further, the recent government incentives issued push-up property values, why there’s no way we will meet the governmen’s new construction targets, plus lots more.
We analyze how these factors will interplay to shape the property market in 2025 and beyond.
Takeaways
- Interest rates are expected to fall further, but maybe not as quickly as many would hope.
- Vacancy rates are declining, leading to further rent increases.
- Government policies often focus on demand rather than supply and “kick the can down the road.”
- Construction challenges are exacerbated by a shortage of tradespeople.
- Migration trends are influencing the housing market significantly.
- Unemployment remains low, contributing to economic stability.
- Market sentiment plays a crucial role in property investment decisions.
- Government incentives do not effectively address housing affordability.
- The interplay of various economic factors will shape the property landscape in 2025.
