Perth Property Insider Podcast

Australia's housing crisis is caused by property investors, right? Wrong! It's caused by a broken system that makes building new homes unfeasible. Most fixes you hear about for the Australian housing market focus on punishing property investors or capping ownership.  While these options sound "fair" on the surface, the truth is they create zero new homes. The real bottleneck in Perth's housing supply is that the numbers don't stack up for anyone building. In this episode of The Perth Property Insider Podcast, I'm sharing what a smarter approach to Perth property, and the wider Australian housing market, looks like. Plus, I cover the three ways housing supply actually gets created and some of the policy mistakes pushing Perth property prices higher. You'll also hear why construction productivity has stalled for decades, how cheaper finance could unlock thousands of new dwellings, and why everyday Perth homeowners could become the next wave of property investors if lending caught up. Tune in to discover ✅ Why taxing property investors doesn't increase housing supply in Australia✅ The real reason Perth property developers aren't building right now✅ The hidden impact of construction costs, taxes, and finance on the property market✅ Why policies like the first home buyer deposit scheme can backfire✅ The untapped potential of infill development, granny flats, and subdivisions in Perth✅ How governments and property investors can partner to boost Australian housing supply✅ Why the current Perth property market could offer a short-term buying opportunity Key moments: 00:00:00 Intro00:01:00 The Investor Blame Game00:02:20 How Supply Gets Created00:04:40 The 5% Deposit Mistake00:07:40 Cut Taxes On Housing00:10:40 Fund The Infrastructure00:13:40 Partner With Investors00:17:00 Why Nothing Changes00:19:20 Your Next Move - Resource Link • Take our Property Investor Readiness Scorecard to uncover your blind spots and make smarter investment decisions before you buy: https://investorsedge.scoreapp.com/• View upcoming property investor webinars, events, and networking sessions: https://www.investorsedge.com.au/events/ • Thinking of selling?

Most people say they want life-changing wealth. Very few are willing to pay the price. Not financially. Personally. Because wealth isn’t just built with money…It’s built with trade-offs. Time.Focus.Relationships.Comfort.Ego.Patience. And the hardest part? There’s a long stretch where you sacrifice…And nothing seems to happen. In this episode, I share some truths I wish someone had told me earlier — including a question that completely changed who I listened to and who I didn’t. If you’ve ever felt pulled between building something bigger and keeping everything balanced… You’ll want to hear this.   Resource Links: Get your Strategic Portfolio Plan and our help with Buying Your Next Perth Property  (https://www.investorsedge.com.au/invest-in-perth-property/) Get email updates about suburb intelligence reports and exclusive invites to our webinars, events, and workshops.

Should I sell my property off market?... It’s a question I’ve been asked a lot recently, and the answer might surprise you. Right now, I’m seeing more owners tempted by a friend who “has a buyer,” a quiet offer that feels really strong compared to any recent appraisal they’ve been given, or the idea that property sells itself anyway. So why not save on agent commission and do it yourself? Why not keep that $15,000 to $20,000 you’d otherwise pay? In a hot market, it can feel like you don’t need a sales agent. You don’t need a campaign or buyer competition to get a good result. Let’s face it, you could take a photo of your letterbox, put it online, and probably get offers on Facebook or through one of the major portals. You might think, “I’m getting a good result. I’m getting offers. I’m getting sold.” It may even be higher than what agents have recently appraised your property for. But I want to share a real story that shows what can happen when you take that path… Let’s go inside.   Resource Links: Additional Resource Links from Podcast Get your Strategic Portfolio Plan and our help with Buying Your Next Perth Property  (https://www.investorsedge.com.au/invest-in-perth-property/) Get email updates about suburb intelligence reports and exclusive invites to our webinars, events, and workshops.

This episode kicks off the year with a reality check on Perth property, what truly happened in 2025, and what smart investors should be watching closely in 2026. I unpack why the market behaved the way it did, not just the headlines. Prices rose, rents stayed tight, incentives ramped up, and interest rates finally shifted direction, triggering one of the biggest psychological changes we’ve seen in years. How first home buyer policies pulled demand forward, why units outperformed houses, and what the latest data really means for investors, homeowners, and first home buyers. From market fundamentals to supply constraints, yields, vacancy rates, land availability, APRA lending caps, interest rate risks, and three possible scenarios for 2026. I walk through what matters, what doesn’t, and where strategy becomes your edge. If you want to invest smarter in Perth property, this is the episode to catch up on.

Today, in this throwback episode of Perth Property Insider brings together four major X factors shaping Perth property: AUKUS, Gentrification, Perth Airport City, and Train Station Upzoning. These are long-term structural shifts, not short-term trends. Which one moves the needle the most? How do AUKUS and gentrification change demand? Defence investment is driving jobs and housing pressure in Perth’s south, while higher-income buyers and new amenities are renewing inner-ring suburbs. Are you positioned early or reacting late? What happens when infrastructure meets planning reform? Perth Airport’s $5 billion expansion and state-led train station upzoning are creating new growth corridors and land value uplift.

Today, I discuss why the Perth property market has reached a boiling point, with record-low supply, fast-rising prices across houses, units, and land, and a major shift in affordability toward higher-density living.
