Almost everyone agrees Australia is in a housing crisis — but why can't we agree on what's causing it?

In this episode, we unpack a revealing Macquarie University study that shows the nation is united on the problem, yet divided on the reasons behind it.

We dive into what Australians think is driving the crisis — from population growth and interest rates to housing supply and taxes — and why the usual media scapegoats like foreign buyers and investor tax breaks don't rank as highly as you'd expect.

You'll also hear why misinformation, mixed messaging and a lack of political leadership are keeping the crisis alive, and what it really takes to fix a system weighed down by decades of policy failures.

If you want a clear, grounded and genuinely eye-opening look at the forces shaping Australia's property market, this episode delivers.
