The Elephant In The Room Property Podcast | Inside Australian Real Estate
How much of what we hear about Australia’s housing crisis is actually true, and how much is just media hype? In this episode, we’re joined by Cameron Kusher, a property economist who’s here to speak without corporate filters, and he doesn’t hold back. We talk about how the media often gets housing stories wrong, oversimplifying complex issues just to chase clicks. The real concern? That these headlines shape government policy, leading to short-sighted solutions that don’t actually fix anything. Cameron walks us through what’s really driving the supply issue: rising construction costs, GST on new builds, financing hurdles, and why “just build more” isn’t as easy as it sounds. We also chat about the missing piece in most political conversations: renters. There’s been decades of underinvestment in social and affordable housing, but that rarely gets the spotlight. We cover everything from tax reform to built-to-rent models, university responsibilities, and what role governments should be playing. If you’ve ever felt like the housing conversation is stuck or too focused on band-aid solutions, this one’s worth a listen. Episode Highlights: 00:00 - Introduction 01:02 - Who is Cameron Kusher? 01:38 - What frustrates Cameron the most about how media covers the housing market 04:21 - How could governments better assist the housing market? 12:44 - How biased is property media? Can we trust it? 15:26 - What do major networks get wrong about the property market? 17:30 - Why immigration is so hard to reduce and what does it means for housing 22:08 - Will falling inflation and interest rates increase housing approvals? 26:31 - Are planning reforms in NSW and VIC actually working? 33:35 - How much housing supply is considered enough? Can we sustain it? 42:14 - Could tax reform like land tax replace stamp duty? 46:14 - Do bold buyer incentives help or hurt the housing market? 48:37 - Are young people really locked out of the housing market? 51:53 - Is ‘giving while living’ the new Bank of Mum and Dad? 53:55 - Will downsizing boomers actually free up family homes? 57:46 - Are Australians becoming comfortable with lifelong mortgage debt? 1:00:06 - Cameron Kusher's property dumbo About Our Guest: Cameron Kusher is a seasoned property economist and one of Australia’s most respected housing market commentators. With more than 20 years of experience working in the Australian property sector., he has held senior research roles at CoreLogic and REA Group, where he served as Executive Manager of Economic Research.

Host: Nadia Cameron, Editor - Marketing | Associate Publisher Amid all the hype, excitement and trepidation around digital, marketing automation, data utilisation and now AI coming into marketing, is the very real need to build team capability and empowerment to actually use the tools effectively – and in a way that delivers business outcomes. As Infosys global CMO, Sumit Virmani, told Mi3 recently: “As AI is a very new technology, it can be a big challenge for teams at large to embrace because they don’t know how to do it. Educating them in the process of embracing AI, on the tools, and actually making investments in your team to get them the comfort to experiment, is the responsibility of a marketing leadership team.” But it’s not just tech changing the shape of marketing execution. New channels and connectivity to customer – as well as higher expectations of said customer – are demanding marketers build a diverse range of brand, people and specialist skill sets. Then there’s the relentless scrutiny of marketing effectiveness and budgets requiring ever stronger commercial nous. Mi3 and the AMI’s Marketing & Customer Benchmarks FY2023 Outlook report last June of 105 Chief Marketing, Customer and Growth Officers highlighted the changes they’re preparing for – team structures and shifting KPI’s among them, with customer lifetime value metrics surging for many. All this makes it imperative marketing teams run continuous learning and capability development loops. Two CMOs striving for this are Freedom Furniture’s Jason Piggott and Wesfarmers Health’s Corrina Brazel. Quick to jump into the Australian Marketing Institute’s new skills assessment tool, 12 months after the launch of its Competency Framework, both see a need for more formalised learning programs that don’t just cover new specialist skills, but can also improve core marketing knowledge across their teams. While the AMI’s Competency Framework provides those foundations and learning structures, the assessment tool is about having productive, proactive conversations with teams while also holding up a mirror to your own strengths and weaknesses, both say. Per AMI CEO, Bronwyn Heys: “Modern marketers need to be bench ready. They need to be ready for anything – for the market, for the consumer.” No less keen to pursue learning rigour is REA Group, whose GM of audience and marketing, Sarah Myers, says has a “very feedback hungry culture” and commitment to deep, specialist skills. A one-size-fits-all program, however, hasn’t been the right option, nor has a pure marketing strain to capability development. Instead, the company has been building out an internal university that recognises certain skills as important across the business. Tune into this latest Mi3 podcast episode as we unpack the pros and cons of skills assessment, specialist versus generalist capability building, and how marketing leaders encourage continuous learning across their teams from the bottom up – while also not forgetting to skill up themselves.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Wall Street slipped into the red again on Tuesday with the S&P500 fighting to stay out of correction territory as it trades 8.6% below its recent record, as investors remain concerned over the impacts Trump's tariffs will have on the US economy.

Rising geopolitical tensions in the form of Israel launching a wave of airstrikes across the Gaza Strip on Tuesday propelled the price of gold to another fresh record high as investors flock into the safe-haven asset in times of great uncertainty.Defensive stocks in the utilities, consumer staples and healthcare sectors all outperformed yesterday, for a similar reason to gold's rally, as investors look for investments that are mostly unaffected by a downturn in the economy.On that note, Woolworths shares jumped over 1% yesterday after Macquarie upgraded the supermarket to an outperform rating, while former Woolworths alcohol arm, Endeavour slipped 1.6% yesterday after Goldman Sachs downgraded the alcohol retailer to neutral.What to watch today:Ahead of the midweek trading session here in Australia the SPI futures are anticipating the ASX will open the day down 0.66% tracking Wall Street's turbulence overnight.On the commodities front this morning, oil is trading 0.94% lower at US$66.95/barrel, gold is up 1.10% to a fresh record US$3032.60/ounce, and iron ore is down 0.52% at US$102.32/tonne.The Aussie dollar has further strengthened against the greenback overnight to buy US$0.63, 94.99 Japanese Yen, 49.15 British Pence and 1 NZ$1.09 cents.Trading Ideas:Bell Potter has decreased the 12-month price target on REA Group (ASX:REA) from $281 to $264 and maintain a buy rating on the leading online real estate listings platform following the release of February property data including a national listings declining 8% YoY for the month.

Wall St closed higher on Friday to post the firstly weekly gain across the three major averages for the year as the big tech rally resumed momentum. The Dow Jones rose 0.78% on Friday and 3.7% for the week, the S&P500 added 1% on Friday and 2.9% for the week, and the Nasdaq ended Friday's session up 1.51% and added 2.5% for the week. In Europe on Friday the positive investor sentiment extended into the European region buoyed by a strong rally for mining stocks. The STOXX 600 rose 0.68%, Germany's DAX added 1.35%, the French CAC gained 0.98%, and, in the UK, the FTSE100 ended the day up 1.35%. Across the Asia markets on Friday it was a mixed session as strong economic data in China boosted investor sentiment in the region. China's CSI index rose 0.31% on Friday after fresh GDP data showed the Chinese economy expanded by 5% YoY and retail sales rose 3.7% which beat expectations. Hong Kong's Hang Seng rose 0.21% on Friday and Japan's Nikkei fell 0.31% at the closing bell. Locally on Friday, the ASX200 took lead from Wall Street's losses overnight to post a 0.2% loss on Friday as the financials weighed on the key index. The pullback followed the ASX200 rising 1.4% on Thursday so for the week the key index still managed a gain of 0.2% last week.On an economic data front on Friday, we had the highly anticipated retail sales, industrial production, and GDP readings out of China. The Chinese economy expanded 5.4% in Q4 which was above the 5% forecast and above the 4.6% recorded in Q3 which is a welcome sign of material recovery in the region post pandemic. Retail sales further supported the recovery story with a rise of 3.7% in December which beat the 3.2% economists were expecting and is a sharp rise from the 3% reported in November. And Industrial production in the region also rose 6.2% in December on an annual basis which also exceeded expectations and was a sharp rise from the 5.4% reported in November. Overall, the economic growth in China is finally starting to show signs of material turnaround and this boosted the iron ore price and stocks with exposure to the region on Friday.The winning stocks on the ASX200 on Friday were led by Megaport rallying 10.10%, Liontown Resources rising 9.5% and Lovisa adding 7.73%. And on the losing end REA Group fell 2.71%, TPG Telecom lost 2.4% and JB Hi-Fi ended the day down 2.15%.Insignia Financial is the talk of the M&A world right now as Bain Capital and CC Capital fight to acquire the nearly 200-year-old Aussie wealth management company. Shares in Insignia rose 6% on Friday after CC Capital increased its takeover offer to a value over $3bn or $4.60/share, above the $4.30/share Bain matched earlier this week. How this one plays out will be very interesting but it's no wonder why CC and Bain want to acquire Insignia as the purchase will give the acquirer a market leadership position in Australia's over $4tn superannuation market. And Telix Pharmaceuticals rose 4% on Friday after the cancer imaging and therapy pharmaceuticals company received approval from Europe's Marketing Authorisation Application for its prostate cancer imaging agent Illucix which already has FDA and TGA approval. This further expansion into Europe broadens the company's revenue runway for its leading agent Illucix.What to watch today:Ahead of the first trading session of the new trading week the SPI futures are anticipating the ASX will open the new day up 0.34%.On the commodities front this Monday morning, oil is trading 1.02% lower at US$77.88/barrel, gold is down 0.5% 2700.99/ounce and iron ore is up 0.72% at US$101.21/tonne.The Aussie dollar is buying US$0.61, 96.85 Japanese Yen, 50.88 British Pence and NZ$1.11.Trading Ideas:Bell Potter has reduced the 12-month price target on Lynas Rare Earths (ASX:LYC) from $7.70 to $7.20 and maintain a hold rating on the rare earths producer following the release of a 2nd quar
Sky TV appears to be in the box seat to secure top-level rugby rights, including the All Blacks, for another five years – at a drastically reduced rate – but fans could yet find some games on a free-to-air channel such as TVNZ or New Zealand Rugby's own digital platform. The deal is reportedly worth $85 million a year, well below the existing $111 million annual deal expiring at the end of the year. Hamish McLennan, chair of REA Group, told Jason Pine that broadcasting deals are the central pillar in terms of driving the game beyond pathways and grassroots. The challenge, he says, is the balance between free-to-air content and what you keep behind a paywall. “You know, do you take the money or do you try and ensure that you reach the maximum amount of viewers?” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Elephant In The Room Property Podcast | Inside Australian Real Estate
What's really going on in Australia's property market? In this episode, we sit down with Cameron Kusher, Executive Director of Economic Research at REA Group, to unpack the trends shaping the Australian property market right now. With access to some of the country's most comprehensive property data, Cameron sheds light on what buyers are searching for, where listings are rising, and how this all connects to transactions and prices. We dig into regional differences in price growth—why places like Perth and Adelaide are surging, while Melbourne struggles—and what's driving these changes. Cameron explains how the rental market is finally loosening up, making it easier for sellers to transition, and we discuss the growing influence of investors in certain areas. We also talk through the impact of interest rates and how expectations of future cuts are influencing sellers' behaviour. There's a fascinating shift happening with buyers too—more selectiveness, fewer bidders at auctions, and changing preferences driven by necessity rather than desire. We touch on how affordability is pushing renters out to the fringes, and Cameron shares insights into how the work-from-anywhere trend is reshaping migration patterns. This episode really gets under the hood of the property market. If you're curious about how things are tracking and what's around the corner, you won't want to miss it!
