Do We Actually Want to Fix the Housing Crisis?

In this week's episode, join Sammy Gordon and APS Head of Strategy Luke Teeuwsen for an in-depth discussion on one of the hottest topics in the Australian housing market right now: the housing supply crisis and whether government solutions are really addressing the root of the problem.

 

Sammy and Luke break down recent election promises and policies aimed at first home buyers, dissecting why government handouts and grants may be missing the mark and potentially making things worse for future generations. They explore how skyrocketing construction costs, decreasing new home builds, and massive infrastructure projects are all converging to keep supply tight and prices on the rise. Whether you’re an investor, a hopeful homebuyer, or just curious about the forces shaping property in Australia, this episode is packed with critical insights, practical solutions, and plenty of straight talk.
