Ep. 189: SMSF Property Ban Shock
The property market is slowing… but first home buyers aren’t necessarily benefiting.
In this episode of The Weekly Investor News, Owen Davis and Nick Bendel unpack a surprising trend emerging across Australia — while some higher-end properties are softening, entry-level homes are continuing to rise.
Research shows that the market slowdown is happening at the premium end, while the homes first home buyers are chasing are becoming even more expensive.
In this episode, we cover:
🏠 Why falling property prices don’t automatically help first home buyers
📈 Why entry-level homes are still seeing strong demand
💰 How government incentives may be pushing competition at the lower end
📊 The importance of supply and demand in determining prices
🏦 Why mortgage brokers now control more than 80% of new home lending
🔑 Victoria’s rental reforms and what they mean for landlords and tenants
