Show Notes

In this episode, Steve Ash breaks down why Geelong is Australia's hottest regional property market right now. With 9.3% of all net internal migration (beating the Sunshine Coast), population growth projected at 35-45% by 2041, and vacancy rates sitting at just 1%, the fundamentals are undeniable.

Whether you're a first-time investor looking for affordable entry or wanting premium growth potential, this episode maps out exactly where to buy, what to avoid (watch out for that reactive sandy soil), and why Geelong could mirror what happened to the Sunshine Coast.
