Tim Graham and Terry Ryder explore Australia’s housing crisis, addressing affordability, misconceptions, and ineffective government policies

In Short:
– Tim Graham and Terry Ryder discussed housing affordability issues and ineffective policies causing the crisis.
– Ryder’s upcoming book addresses misconceptions about negative gearing and factors influencing property prices.

On this episode of The Property Playbook, host Tim Graham discussed the persistent housing affordability and shortage issues with Hotspotting founder Terry Ryder.

They examined the reasons behind the ongoing housing crisis and attributed it to ineffective policies and taxation impacting housing costs.

They also explored misconceptions about negative gearing and proposed solutions for the housing shortage.

Rising Prices

Prices and rents continue to increase, primarily due to the ongoing deficiency of available dwellings. Despite extensive media coverage and political assurances over the years, issues like undersupply and inadequate affordability remain unresolved.

Politicians, economists, and journalists have debated the core problems extensively, yet nothing changes, leaving affordability in a dire state. Ryder criticizes the scapegoating culture in Australia, questioning who truly bears responsibility for the housing crisis.

Ryder mentions his forthcoming book, ‘Why Property Prices Rise,’ which tackles the factors influencing high real estate prices.
