🎙️ Why the Election Won’t Fix the Housing Crisis Australia has voted — but will the Federal Election result change anything for the housing crisis? For real estate consumers, the answer is... probably not. In this episode, we cut through the political noise and unpack what the election outcome really means for home buyers, investors, renters, and the property industry. While the re-election of the Albanese Government may provide short-term relief for homeowners, it offers little hope for renters or first-home buyers — because, quite simply, the government still doesn’t understand the root causes of the housing crisis. We discuss: ✅ Why the Greens’ wipeout is actually good news for the housing sector ✅ How both major parties have failed to present real solutions ✅ The continuing imbalance between housing demand and supply ✅ And why the promise to build 1.2 million homes is already off-track We also outline what’s actually needed to fix the housing crisis — from tax reform and trade shortages, to meaningful incentives for investors and builders. If you're tired of the political spin and want to hear what really needs to change, this episode is for you.
