What goes up and never comes down? Most people would say their age is a safe bet. However Australians are more inclined to answer ‘house prices’ and the first 5 months of 2024 has reaffirmed this.

The future is uncertain; State and federal governments must do far more to assist the property and construction industry to make home ownership a reality for many. 

Governments cannot keep taxing the industry out of existence because ultimately the public pays from increased costs and decreased supply. 

It is time for the public to speak up for future generations but in the meantime, don’t wait to buy, get into the market as costs continue to go up and history has proven, they never come down.
