## Resource

This week on Ipswich’s Real Estate Podcast, guest host Matt Taylor-Farrington from Purple Bunny Marketing is joined by Steve Beach from Stanford Financial to break down the latest RBA announcement. Despite most experts tipping a rate cut, the Reserve Bank surprised the market by keeping rates on hold. What does this mean for mortgage holders, buyers, and the Ipswich property market? Matt and Steve unpack the decision, discuss what could happen next, and share what they’re seeing locally when it comes to real estate activity.
