  • Domain's Bold Property Forecasts for 2026 - with Dr. Nicola Powell

    Domain's Bold Property Forecasts for 2026 - with Dr. Nicola Powell
    Dec 15 2025
    At this time every year we get flooded with predictions about what's next for Australia's housing markets. Some of them are useful… a lot of them are noise. But every so often, a report comes along that genuinely moves the needle and helps us see the bigger picture. Domain's Forecast Report 2026 is one of those. It paints a pretty fascinating story: record prices in every capital city, rents still on the rise, and perhaps the most powerful first-home buyer surge we've seen in decades. And it's not just more of the same – the data suggests our markets are shifting into a whole new gear, driven by policies, sentiment changes, and the slow rebalancing of supply. And there are some interesting twists as to how Domain sees the housing markets play out over the next 12 months. So today I chat with Dr Nicola Powell, Domain's Chief of Research and Economics, to help us unpack what's really coming in 2026, why this cycle is so different, and what the winners and losers might be. Takeaways · 2026 is expected to be a year of two halves in the property market. · First home buyers are returning, aided by government schemes. · Investors are also increasing their market share. · Interest rates will significantly influence property prices. · Sydney is forecasted to lead in house price growth. · Affordability remains a critical challenge for buyers. · Rental markets are expected to see modest growth. · Regional differences in property performance are notable. · The cash rate is a key factor in market dynamics. · Sustainable growth is preferred over rapid price increases. Chapters 00:00 Domain's 2026 forecast signals record prices and shifting market forces. 02:01 Key drivers behind the synchronized upswing across all capitals. 03:03 Momentum builds as confidence rises and supply tightens. 05:55 Investors and first-home buyers return, intensifying competition. 07:46 The expanded guarantee scheme reshapes borrowing and demand. 09:38 Rate expectations and affordability caps guide market behaviour.

  • The Truth About Holiday Homes as a Property Investment: Brett Warren Exposes the Real Numbers

    The Truth About Holiday Homes as a Property Investment: Brett Warren Exposes the Real Numbers
    Dec 10 2025
    You know how every summer Australians wander down to the beach, breathe in the salty air, have a few too many wines, and suddenly convince themselves that owning a holiday home is a brilliant investment strategy? Well… it isn't. In fact, it's one of the biggest financial traps I see Aussies fall into. And today, I'm joined by Brett Warren, National Director of Property at Metropole, to unpack all the reasons why holiday homes almost always underperform, why the numbers never stack up, and what smarter investors are doing instead. Our discussion highlights the risks associated with holiday properties, the necessity of prioritising long-term financial goals, and the current market trends that could impact property investment decisions in the coming years. Takeaways · Holiday homes often come with hidden costs and risks. · Successful investors prioritize essential investments over lifestyle choices. · Understanding market trends is crucial for long-term investment success. · Emotional decisions can lead to poor investment choices. · It's important to evaluate the true costs of owning a holiday home. · Investing in high-demand areas can yield better returns. · The property market is cyclical, and timing is essential. · Strategic planning can help achieve financial goals more effectively. · Investors should focus on data-driven decisions rather than emotions. · Wealth building requires a long-term vision and strategy. Chapters 00:10 Why holiday moods lead to bad investment decisions. 05:05 Why holiday towns underperform long-term despite recent spikes. 10:05 Airbnb myths, hidden costs and tax pitfalls investors ignore. 15:05 Volatility, low land value and why holiday homes drag wealth. 20:00 Strategic investing vs lifestyle buying as 2026 market shifts. 24:55 Wealth principles: build assets first, enjoy holidays later.
