Why Are Property Prices STILL Rising? (No One Expected This) | Dr Andrew Wilson

If you're feeling uncertain about what's really going on in the property market right now… you're not alone.

Because the biggest challenge facing our housing markets today isn't interest rates, inflation, or even affordability…

It's uncertainty.

We've got multiple forces all moving at once - some pushing prices higher, others working against them - and for many investors, that's making it harder than ever to form a clear view of what comes next.

And yet… despite all that… property prices are still rising.

So what's really going on?

In this episode, Dr. Andrew Wilson and I delve into the resilience of Australia's property market amidst economic uncertainty.

We discuss the surprising multi-month streak of property price growth and its underlying factors.

We explore regional variations, focusing on Sydney, Melbourne, and the growth in smaller capitals.

Additionally, we analyze the impact of high construction costs and material prices on future supply.

Join us as we provide insights to help you make informed investment decisions in these challenging times.
