Ep 115: The Melbourne Market Just Flipped - Jeremy Iannuzzelli & Steve Ash

What School Should Have Taught You

Show Notes

Melbourne was on fire earlier this year. Then the federal budget landed, and sentiment flipped almost overnight.

Steve Ash of Property Strats joins Jeremy to break down what changed: yield compression in hot pockets, the return of first home buyers, and why negative gearing changes have pushed investors toward cash flow over capital growth. He also unpacks the surprising cases where body corporate fees actually beat the cost of owning a freestanding home and how to tell a genuine bargain from a trap dressed up as one.

If you're weighing up whether Victoria's undervalued reputation still holds after the budget, this episode is a must watch before you buy.
