Labor's Housing Bill Rejected, Consumer Spending at an All Time Low, Interest Rates Set to Drop

Season 2 - Episode 13
In this episode we break down Anthony Albanese's controversial housing bill, dissecting the shared equity scheme designed to help first-time buyers and the political clash it ignited between the Coalition and the Greens. We'll unpack why the Greens' demands on negative gearing and capital gains tax changes are seen as impractical and explore the limited impact of this bill on property prices due to stringent eligibility criteria. Compare this with the existing home guarantee scheme, and you'll see why concerns about skyrocketing property prices might be overstated.
Additionally, we navigate through the shifting sands of consumer spending from April 2021 to July 2024, focusing on the drastic decline in discretionary spending and the economic pressures driving these changes. Discover the hidden impact of rising taxes on alcohol and tobacco, pushing consumers towards illegal alternatives.
Finally, we turn our attention to the real estate market in New South Wales, spotlighting Catherine Field and Austral as key investment opportunities with promising rental yields and future capital growth.
