In today's episode, I'll go through the difficult puzzle that is home affordability and examine the proposed solutions that are unlikely to have a significant effect. I'll also discuss the possible drawbacks of the policies suggested by both the Labour and Liberal parties as we go into this federal election.

With housing affordability becoming more challenging, particularly with significant increases in house prices, I will pull apart this puzzle and show you the many pieces and their influence on our market moving forward.

This is really a hot topic for today’s episode, so let’s go inside!

Thrilled With the Sale Experience!

Living in the Melbourne, we had to fully rely on the agency handling the sale of the property. We are thrilled with Investors Edge Real Estate in the way they handled: the marketing, negotiating with the tenant, the time on market and of course the sale! We are looking forward to using their services again.
