This week we dug deeper into the budget with the Domain chief of research Dr Nicola Powell on what it means for homebuyers, as well as if there's any implications for the looming federal election.

Nicola also said the two parties aren't drastically different - historically - when it comes to housing, and the market is bigger than who's in power.
