Episode Details

In this episode, Az breaks down the TGB Australian Building Industry Health Report — a 30-plus page document built from publicly available data across the ABS, ASIC, RBA, Master Builders, HIA, QBCC, Infrastructure Australia and more, including over 97,000 customer reviews analysed.

This isn't opinion. It's the facts of what's happening across the Australian building industry, pulled together in plain English.

What we cover:

• What the report actually is and why nothing like it currently exists
• Building activity, approvals and how the numbers stack up against the National Housing Accord
• Builder insolvencies — the real numbers, what's driving them and what's coming next
• Construction costs, material pricing and regional cost escalation forecasts
• Workforce and skills — which trades face the most acute shortages and why the problem is structural
• Customer sentiment and experience — what tens of thousands of reviews reveal about what matters most
• Land supply, pricing, interest rates and borrowing capacity
• Government policy, incentives and industry risks on the horizon
• Subcontractor and supply chain health
• Mental health in construction

Who it's for: Builders, trades, suppliers, manufacturers, consultants, brokers, advisors — and homeowners thinking about building.
