Construction costs and sticky inflation

The property market is facing a perfect storm…

Global conflict is driving supply shocks.

Inflation is creeping back in.

Interest rates are rising again.

And now… tax reform is back on the table.

In this groundbreaking episode, Ben is joined by Ray White Chief Economist Nerida Conisbee and Behavioural Economist Evan Lucas to unpack how these forces are colliding and exactly what it could mean for property prices, investors, and the broader economy.

From shifting buyer sentiment to construction cost pressures and the potential changes to capital gains tax and negative gearing, this is one of the most important conversations we’ve had on the future of Australia’s housing market.
