S3: EP 14 Rate Cuts & Rising Prices: Australia’s Property Crossroads

In this latest episode of Help Me Buy Property Podcast, Me and John Lindeman joined forces to dissect the evolving landscape of the Australian housing market post-election. From the ripple effects of interest rate shifts to the government’s ambitious (but questionable) housing promises, we explored what’s really shaping the market right now — and what investors need to watch closely. 

In the latter part of the episode, we delved into recent trends across major cities, with Sydney still leading in median house prices, while Brisbane, Adelaide, and Perth dominate in annual growth. However, despite government pledges to build 100,000 new homes, John explains why trade shortages and long lead times may leave those promises largely unfulfilled. Rental pressure continues to mount, and structural issues show no signs of easing. 

This episode is packed with real-time insights on why apartments in cities like Adelaide are gaining momentum, what’s driving buyer behavior, and why acting now  especially in the outer suburbs of Sydney and Melbourne might be your smartest move in 2025. Whether you’re new to the game or a seasoned investor, this is the market pulse check you need.
