In this episode of the Michael Yardney podcast, I discuss the current state of the housing market with Dr. Nicola Powell, Chief of Research and Economics. We explore the impact of federal elections on housing predictions, the effects of political uncertainty, and the concept of Solomon's Paradox in decision-making.

Our conversation also delves into the differences in housing policies between political parties, the ongoing supply and demand issues in the market, and the opportunities available in established properties. The episode concludes with insights on market trends and the importance of making property decisions based on personal circumstances rather than external noise.
