In this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, managing editor Liam Garman and deputy editor Emilie Lauer break down the year that was in Australian property, examining which markets surged, where momentum stalled, and why demand-side policy is setting the scene for further growth into 2026. The conversation explores interest rate predictions, refinancing options, and the economic forces driving inflation, highlighting why expert advice has become critical in an increasingly complex market. Garman and Lauer also unpack regional performance across the country, shifting buyer priorities, and the rise of the "compromise or miss out" mindset reshaping purchasing decisions, particularly among younger buyers. Looking ahead, they discuss why strategy will be central to navigating the next phase of the property cycle and tease part two of the series, focused on building sustainable, long-term property outcomes in 2026.

In this episode, we pull back the curtain on one of the least transparent parts of Australia's property market: sales campaign behaviour. From hidden campaign histories to shifting price guides and agent tactics designed to manufacture buyer momentum, most buyers are making six- and seven-figure decisions without the information they actually need. Today's conversation digs into that gap — and the consequences of it.We're joined by Henry Pedersen, co-founder and CEO of Homer, a proptech tool built to expose the data buyers never get to see. Henry walks us through what really happens behind the scenes of a sales campaign: failed auctions, withdrawn listings, guide price movements, and the patterns in agent strategy that can completely alter a buyer's perception of value. We talk about why big data alone isn't enough, how algorithms misread hyper-specific property nuances, and why more information doesn't automatically mean better decisions.We also dive into the thornier realities: the structural incentives pushing agents toward underquoting, why buyers keep falling into the same traps, how state regulators are tightening their approach, and what transparency could actually look like if buyers had access to honest, unfiltered campaign histories. Henry also shares how buyer behaviour — from switching suburbs to chasing “hot” listings — is often influenced by information that's incomplete or deliberately curated.Whether you're navigating the market for the first time, returning after a break, or advising clients professionally, this episode gives you tools to understand the battlefield. We help you recognise the signals buried inside campaign data, avoid being blindsided by agent strategy, and get clearer about where your expectations sit in the real market — not the one portrayed online. This is a must-listen for anyone tired of feeling outplayed.Episode Highlights00:00 — Introduction to the Hidden World of Property Market01:28 — Meet Henry Pedersen: Co-founder and CEO of Homer02:05 — The Birth of Homer: A Personal Journey02:50 — How Homer Provides Transparency in Property Data04:11 — Challenges and Insights in Property Data05:13 — The Role of Historical Data in Property Decisions06:39 — Navigating the Property Market with Homer's Tools12:23 — User Experience and Adoption of Homer14:06 — Future Developments and Features of Homer20:07 — Queensland's Unique Real Estate Law22:03 — Challenges of Property Valuation23:27 — Agent Behavior and Market Strategies25:04 — Leveraging Data for Better Decisions33:44 — AI in Real Estate35:38 — Property Dumbo Stories38:14 — Conclusion and Final ThoughtsAbout the GuestHenry Pedersen is the Co-Founder and CEO of Homer, a fast-growing proptech platform built to give Australian buyers real visibility into sales campaigns — including the data traditionally kept out of sight. With a background in data, growth strategy, and scaling marketplace businesses globally, Henry brings an outside-the-industry lens to one of real estate's most persistent problems: information asymmetry.Prior to joining Homer, Henry worked in international markets building large-scale automotive data platforms, helping bring structure and transparency to vehicle marketplaces across Australia and the UK. His personal experience navigating Sydney's overheated 2021 market led him to confront the frustrations buyers face: shifting price guides, opaque campaign histories, and the sheer workload required to track property activity manually.At Homer, Henry focuses on surfacing patterns in agent behaviour, guide-to-sale accuracy, campaign timelines, and other hidden indicators that shape buyer outcomes. His mission is simple: equip everyday Australians with the information professionals use —...

From tax changes to interest rates to regulation changes, there's an ever growing list of reasons for kiwis to be a bit more hesitant to invest in property. Now with changes to foreign buyers laws, we may be staring down the barrel of a completely different property market. So here's the question, has the model for property investment fundamentally changed? How are investors going about it these days, and is it even worth it?

Mortgage lenders are battling to offer borrowers lower rates - running ahead of the Bank of England making an expected cut next week. That's good news for anyone buying a home but it's even better for the 1.9million people who need to remortgage next year - many of whom will be facing a payment shock as they come off much lower fixed rates. So, will the mortgage cuts revive the moribund housing market - and what should you do if your fixed rate is running out? On this episode of the This is Money podcast, Georgie Frost, Helen Crane and Simon Lambert talk mortgages and the property market - including why experts say now is the best time in a decade to negotiate on a new build home. Plus, what does the Fed rate cut mean for investors, would you give a child or grandchild shares for Christmas, and finally, where are Britons trying to buy homes abroad... and why?

This week, Trent Fleskens hosts Brendon Ptolomey for his quarterly update on WA's regional property market. They discuss the latest trends in the property markets of Sydney and Perth, highlighting the high prices and limited supply in Sydney compared to Perth.

China's Property Crisis Deepens as State-Owned Giant Vanke Plunges; Export Model Creates International Friction — Fraser Howie — Howie documents the deepening property market crisis, evidenced by the financial collapse of state-owned developer Vanke. The central government avoids massive bailout commitments, converting acute sectoral problems into chronic structural drags that leave municipal and regional banks dangerously exposed. Howie notes that the government's current strategy—relying on massive export volumes—is generating significant international friction and pushback, as other nations fear being "swamped by cheap Chinese imports" and demand market access reciprocity. 1947 PEKING

PREVIEW — Fraser Howe — China's Chronic Property Market Crisis Persists Due to Government Refusal to Clear Debt. Howe explains that the Chinese government created and sustains a chronic property market crisis by refusing to permit real estate values to clear at severe discounts, unlike the U.S., which aggressively resolved its debt burden through market mechanisms. The government prevents acute price collapse, converting a short-term correction into a long-term structural drag on economic growth lasting well over five years—a millstone constraining China's broader economic performance and development capacity.

China's Economic Slump: Export Decline, Policy Failures, and Property Market Stagnation Guests: Anne Stevenson-Yang and Gordon Chang Anne Stevenson-Yang and Gordon Chang discussed the unprecedented slump in China's economic activity, noting cooled investment and slowing industrial output, with exports falling 25% to the US, attributing this long-term decline to the government's 2008 decision to pull back economic reforms and the current 15th Five-Year Plan lacking viable solutions or bailouts for hurting localities, while consumption remains dangerously low (around 38% of GDP) and is expected to shrink further as the government prioritizes technological development and factory production, with the property market collapsing as capital investment, land sales, and unit prices decline, forcing people to hold onto decaying apartments and risking stagnation for decades similar to Japan post-1989, a problem largely self-created due to overcapacity, although other countries like Brazil are also restricting Chinese imports.
