The pendulum has swung and Australia’s property market is expected to be very, very different in 2021!

On the back of what we can only describe as “a year we’ll never forget”, property is about to bounce ahead in a direction very few could have predicted during the height of the pandemic panic.

In this episode, you’re about to hear an expert forecast that reveals key market insights into the Property Market Outlook for 2021 (including suburbs set to soar this year and potential challenges up ahead!).

Joining us is Cameron Kusher, Executive Manager – Economic Research at REA Group. Cameron has over 15 years’ experience working as a property market analyst (both residential and commercial). His experience spans valuations, property development, development consulting, commercial property research as well as residential property research. Through his work, Cameron has gained a thorough understanding of property market fundamentals across demographics, trends and economics, making him a widely sought-after commentator and presenter on property market conditions and emerging trends.

Oh, and prior to joining REA Group, Cameron spent more than 11 years at CoreLogic where he was the Head of Research for Australia.

… If you want a realistic look into how property will perform this year and where you can expect to see price growth and high demand, then this episode is for you.

281 | Why The Easter Break Almost Ended in Disaster for Property Owners… and How it Was Avoided – Chat with Leah Calnan, President of REIV

By in Podcast, Q&A

Subscribe On Itunes Subscribe On Android

Yes, we’ve got TWO back-to-back episodes this week! ‘Cos let’s face it… there’s been A LOT that has disturbed the property industry over the week!

Case in point: Easter.

Oh, Easter. The break that had a lot of us biting our nails, not biting into chocolate eggs… and a lot of folks didn’t even KNOW it almost ended in disaster for property owners!

Thankfully, common sense prevailed – and today’s guest had a great deal to do with bringing that levelheadedness back to the table.

Joining us today is none other than Leah Calnan, President of the Real Estate Institute of Victoria (REIV), the peak body of real estate down here in VIC.

And she has a wealth of experience to bring to the discussion – not only has she got over 24 years’ experience in property management… and is the Director of Metro Property Management & Metro Property Sales… but also, she’s recently taken over as President of REIV (back in October last year) after being on their Board of Directors since 2014.

So, when some crazy policy was announced regarding Victoria’s COVID-19 Rent Relief Package… well, let’s just say Leah spent her Easter break fighting hard for all of us….
