In this episode, REB journalist Emilie Lauer sits down with PRD chief economist Dr Diaswati Mardiasmo to unpack the current state of Australia's property market and spotlight the most affordable, liveable suburbs. The duo starts the episode by exploring the market's response to the previous interest rate cuts and how they've impacted demand, supply, and property prices. Asti said that while the first cut had minimal effect, the second led to a modest rise in auction clearance rates, building momentum for future cuts. The duo then turns to PRD's latest report, identifying affordable suburbs within 20 kilometres of the capital city CBDs. Asti said affordable suburbs are defined as those below capital city median prices but still offer strong liveability, based on factors like low crime, access to infrastructure, and new housing supply. The report also considers rental yields, appealing to both owner-occupiers and investors. In Sydney, suburbs like Guildford and Punchbowl stand out, while Melbourne offers more affordable options in areas such as St Albans and Maribyrnong. While units remain more affordable than houses, Asti noted that the price gap has narrowed, signalling growth potential across both asset types. Did you like this episode?

This week, the Bank of Canada (BoC) decided to hold its key interest rate at 2.75%, which was a surprise to nobody, says Philip Petursson, Chief Investment Strategist at IG Wealth Management. With gross domestic product a little better than expected, inflation dropping and jobs steady, a rate cut wouldn't have made sense. Philip discusses what might have to happen in the future to lead to another rate drop, and how much room the BoC has for further cuts.

Interest rates are falling again. After years of rate hikes, mortgage stress, and a cooling economy, the RBA has now dropped interest rates for the second time this cycle and there are more rate cuts to come. But what does this actually mean? Is the worst behind us—or is this a sign of deeper cracks in the economy? In today's Big Picture episode, I'm joined again by leading financial commentator Pete Wargent as we unpack the macroeconomic forces shaping our housing markets and the financial outlook for Australians. Of course, the headline is the Reserve Bank's decision to cut rates on May 20. But there's so much more going on behind the scenes—consumer spending is tanking, the construction sector is in crisis, our population is booming while new housing approvals are plummeting, and unemployment is quietly starting to rise. We also explore whether this rate cut will fire up another round of property price growth, how investors are likely to respond, and whether inflation could make an unwelcome return. Plus, we'll take a step back and look at the global context—what's happening with the US Federal Reserve, China's economy, and what all of this means for you as a property investor, business owner, or just someone trying to make sense of the chaos. So whether you're wondering if now is the right time to buy property, refinance, or simply want to stay ahead of the curve, you're in the right place. Takeaways · Market signals indicate a turning point in property investment. · Falling interest rates are expected to boost consumer confidence. · The narrative we tell ourselves can limit our potential. · First home buyers are likely to enter the market soon. · Melbourne's population growth poses significant infrastructure challenges. · Consumer confidence is crucial for property market recovery. · The housing market is facing a significant shortage of supply. · Government policies need to align with housing demand. · Long-term investment strategies are essential for success. · Understanding market trends is key to making informed decisions.

The Fed dropped the Federal Funds Rate by 50 basis point this week, ushering in a new monetary regime. Investors need to the know that the playbook has changed. Delivering what sounded like a "mission accomplished" press conference this week, Fed Chair Jerome Powell is projecting confidence that inflation is nearly beaten, unemployment remains low, and economic growth is solid. He doesn't see recession as a visible threat here. So has the Fed indeed achieved a soft landing? Or... is the large rate cut a sign the Fed is actually worried it's already behind the curve? I discuss this with portfolio manager Michael Lebowitz. He suspects the Fed is worried, and for certain he thinks that the switch to cutting rates has changed the rules for investing. In his words: now is the time to re-evaluate what you own. How will it perform in a era of falling interest rates? For everything that mattered to markets this week, watch this Weekly Market Recap.
