The property game is shifting, and you could be left behind if you’re not paying attention. In this week’s Property Tank, I break down the key trends shaping Australia’s real estate market.

Victoria has introduced a townhouse planning shake-up, which could fast-track development approvals and create new developer opportunities. Meanwhile, the government’s foreign investor ban has sparked debate: is it a genuine solution to housing affordability or just a headline grab?

Interest rate cuts have led to an increase in buyer activity, but the real question is whether the market is actually rebounding or if this is just a short-term reaction. And finally, Australia has just recorded its biggest property sale ever, with a $150 million deal in Toorak. What’s driving these ultra-high-end transactions, and what does it mean for the broader market?

If you’re flipping, developing, or just keeping an eye on the market, this is the intel you need.
