ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Mandatory energy disclosure is shifting how Australians buy, sell, and rent homes. But does efficiency actually drive stronger sales results and higher rental returns?

They'll unpack the link between energy-smart homes, buyer demand, sale prices and rental returns. Jacob and Chiara also share practical tips on how agents and property managers can market energy performance to deliver better value for buyers, renters, and homeowners.
