About this episode
This episode explores the most overrated suburbs in Melbourne's property market and questions their true value.
Melbourne’s property market is full of hype, world’s most liveable city they say! But not all suburbs stack up. In this episode, we unpack the suburbs that get talked up the most and ask the hard question: are they actually worth it? From blue-chip postcodes that might be past their prime to lifestyle hotspots where the numbers don’t quite add up, we break down what’s driving the perception versus the reality. If you’re buying, investing, or just suburb-curious, this is the episode that might change where you look next.
