Spring FG Leadership Series - Dr Andrew Wilson
The State of the Melbourne Property Market
Given all the media attention around interest rates and the broader Australian property market, it is vitally important to understand how the various drivers of price and rental growth interact with one another and how they impact performance. With our major eastern seaboard cities being such large and complicated ecosystems, in today’s instalment, we look at how interest rate movements, wage levels, unemployment, migration, supply and demand as well as comparative affordability need to be looked at together when considering investment in residential property. Dr Andrew J. Wilson discusses the Melbourne market and provides insight into the future outlook of our fastest growing major capital city.
