They go deep on why rates are still high despite inflation cooling, how the labour market and consumer spending are creating mixed signals, and why there’s still a lag effect in the housing and retail sectors.They also talk about rising rents, tight vacancy rates, and how savvy investors are starting to re-enter the market. You’ll hear insights on refinancing opportunities, fixed vs variable rates, and why some buyers are turning back to Victoria after being priced out of Queensland and Adelaide.Plus, the boys share some real-world advice for navigating all the noise: what to watch, what to ignore, and why waiting for the RBA before acting could cost you.
