It Sure Feels Like a Recession 🗞️ Real Estate Market Wrap
The real story is what's happening beneath the surface.
Property prices are falling, borrowing power is shrinking, buyers are taking longer to commit, and sales volumes are down.
My biggest concern? Real estate businesses. Revenue is falling, but the overheads keep coming.
We might not technically be in a recession, but for many Australians, it certainly feels like one.
The market has changed. The bills haven't. Something has to give.
And if you're an agent, you don't have to navigate this market alone.

The market doesn't care how long you've been here. Only whether you still matter. 🏬💡
I grew up seeing David Jones as an Australian institution—the place you dressed up to visit, had lunch and made a day of it. But 188 years of history could not protect it from a changing customer, rising costs and competitors who moved faster. The lesson for every business owner is simple: don’t rely on what made you successful yesterday. Keep evolving, or eventually the market moves on without you. 📈

A paper loss is not a real loss unless you're forced to sell. 🏡📉
They did the right thing, bought their first home — and then the rules changed on them. 💭

Rates come down just before the election. 🇦🇺📉
Since Labor came to government in May 2022, the RBA cash rate has risen from 0.10% to 4.85% — an increase of 4.75 percentage points, or 4,750 basis points. Put simply: the official rate is now nearly 49 times higher than it was when they took office. The RBA makes the rate decisions, not the government, but households are rightly asking why cost-of-living pressures and inflation have remained so stubborn for so long. 🏠

The Bank of Mum & Dad is disappearing
I’m seeing this more and more at auctions.
And here’s my concern... Instead of major economic reform that encourages ambition, aspiration and wealth creation, we seem increasingly focused on redistributing wealth.
Is the Australian dream of home ownership dead?

This buyer thought upgrading would take ten years — but with the right move, they did it now. 🚀

Trump has lost the handbrake. 🇺🇸⚡
Democrats have taken control of Congress — a huge rebuke to Trump and a result that could reshape global markets, trade, China relations and Australia’s economic outlook. 🌏

THE RBA'S WARNING: Not a recession - but it will feel like one. 🇦🇺📉
The Reserve Bank’s latest forecast says Australia is not heading for a technical recession — but growth is slowing, unemployment is rising and inflation is expected to stay high until 2028. For many households, it may feel like a recession well before the official figures ever call it one. ⚠️

A country grows when its people believe they can. 🇦🇺🚀
Australia needs a government that rewards aspiration, ownership and effort—not one that makes people feel their future depends on Canberra. 💪

DON'T PANIC - FIX YOUR MORTGAGE + what you should say to your bank today! 🏠📞
Another rate rise means mortgage holders are again asking: should I fix, stay variable, or split the difference?
This is not about panic. It is about getting informed. Fixing can provide certainty, but it can reduce flexibility. Variable can hurt when rates rise, but it may give you access to an offset account, redraw, extra repayments and the benefit of future cuts. Most importantly: do not simply accept your bank’s rate. Call your broker or bank today, ask for the retention team and make them compete for your business. 💡

CBA'S PROPERTY WARNING-FORECAST OF THE UNEXPECTED BOTTOM. 🏡📉
Commonwealth Bank has just delivered one of the starkest property forecasts yet: national prices forecast to fall 14% peak to trough, with Brisbane and Perth tipped for falls of 18%. The big question is not whether the market has changed. It has. The question is whether sellers, buyers and agents have changed with it. 👀

What the RBA said today - and what it means for Australia's future. 🇦🇺📈
The RBA has lifted rates again to 4.85%. Inflation is still too high, the pressure on mortgage holders and small businesses is getting worse, and the Bank is warning it may take until 2028 to bring inflation properly under control. Global events matter — but Australia cannot keep blaming the outside world when we are now feeling more pain than many comparable countries. The people carrying the cost are borrowers, business owners and workers. They are becoming the collateral damage of bad domestic settings. 🏠⚠️

Six sellers in tears from 10 auctions. 😔🏡
This is the human side of a slowing property market: people committed elsewhere, deposits at risk, repayments mounting and families forced into impossible decisions. The message is simple—don’t run a hopeful strategy when you need a realistic one. Ask what it takes to sell today, create a new plan and take back control. 💡

The RBA pulls the lever. But Canberra created the pressure. 🇦🇺📈
If rates rise tomorrow, expect another polished press conference blaming everything from Donald Trump to fuel prices. Global pressures are real. But Australia has now faced more rate rises than many comparable developed countries. The RBA is independent, but policy settings, spending, productivity and confidence are not. Australians can see the difference between an explanation and an excuse. 🎯
