In the eighth Podcast since Covid-19 took hold, we turned our thoughts to the property market and the multitude of forces that determine its trajectory. We look at the stabilisers, head winds and yes, even tail winds, despite what the mass media might have you believe! In this episode David Johnston, Cate Bakos and Peter Koulizos take you through: •The seller's market, how supply and low interest rates are underpinning property values. •Why auction clearance rates have improved each week for the last three weeks and one noted property market expert with a proven track record is re-calibrating his previous dire predictions for the market. •Why access to finance is critical to supporting property values, and how lender policies are adjusting given the changing economic situation. •The forecast for unemployment what this means for the property market. •The impact of sustained low interest rates on property values based on RBA modelling. •How property values remained resilient during the early 90's recession despite unemployment above 10% and the RBA cash rate peaked at a punishing 17.5 per cent. •An update on relaxed restrictions as state governments begin the process of easing, with kids returning to school and social gatherings back on the agenda. •And of course, our 'gold nuggets'!
