Published 2 months, 1 week ago
Description
Do property investors really make housing unaffordable for first home buyers ... or is that just an easy story people tell?
In this episode, Ed and Andrew dig into 20 years of buyer data, Treasury research, and international studies to reveal what actually drives house prices … and whether investors are really to blame.
You’ll learn:
- Whether investors genuinely push up house prices
- If investors crowd out first home buyers
- What would actually happen if property investors disappeared tomorrow
This episode provides a clear, evidence-based view of how the housing market actually works, without scapegoating or finger-pointing.
