2 sense: Interest rate deep dive, recession debate & tourism comeback
Every Sunday at 7 am the Australian Property Podcast crew dissects the latest news headlines to help you understand what the noise means for you and your property.
Mortgage Broker Chris Bates and Buyer's Agent Pete Wargent are taking a deep dive on today's episode on interest rates from borrowing capacity to how long and how high we think interest rates will go, whether Australia will go into recession (and if so effect this will have on the property market) and what the tourism rebound will do for the economy and housing supply.
