ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Should you wait for property prices to fall further, or is waiting the biggest mistake investors can make?
In this episode of Future Proof Property, Dawn is joined by experienced investor and property strategist Jeremy Iannuzzelli to unpack what is really happening in Australia's property market. Together, they explore why today's market is being driven by fear rather than fundamentals, why a 50% property crash is highly unlikely, and how experienced investors approach periods of uncertainty.
They also discuss migration, government policy, negative gearing changes, Victoria's market, and why history suggests that the biggest opportunities often appear when confidence is at its lowest.
