Renovating Australia

In this episode of Renovating Australia we sit down with property data expert and Head of Australian Research at Core Logic, Eliza Owen. 

Eliza has a wealth of experience in property data analysis and reporting. You may recognise her name as she has previously worked as an economist at Residex, a research analyst at Domain Group and previously as the commercial real estate and construction analyst at CoreLogic. 

This episode covers the impacts that COVID-19 has had on the Australian property market, along with the incredible reaction we are seeing to the current supply and demand of properties right around the country. 
 
 We also ask the million dollar question. Where the heck will the market be in 12 months time and you won’t find a more qualified person to answer that question than Eliza herself! 

So if you’re curious about whether the market is currently over priced, debating whether you should hurry your Reno along, or you can’t stop thinking about purchasing another before you miss out .. pour yourself a cuppa and turn the volume up, this is an episode you do not want to miss!

You can find the incredible resources Eliza mentioned at Corelogic.com.au/News and Corelogic.com.au/Reports
