Construction can’t keep up. And the Olympics are coming. Pete Wargent and Chris Bates unpack what is really driving Australian property in early 2026 — sticky inflation, renewed rate risk, construction bottlenecks and Olympic-driven labour demand. With approvals rising but delivery lagging, they examine how supply constraints, first-home buyer momentum and rising build costs are influencing prices and opportunity across the country. Together, they discuss: - Inflation came in hot and what another potential rate hike means for buyer confidence - Why first-home buyers continue entering despite higher rates and tighter borrowing capacity - The impact of the revamped 5% deposit scheme on bottom-quartile prices - Why approvals are lifting but dwelling completions remain stubbornly low - Olympic-driven labour demand in Brisbane - Infrastructure projects crowd out housing supply - The rise in build costs and how higher replacement values are embedding price support - Does regional outperformance reflect affordability, investor activity or structural shift? - Listener Q&A: Downsizing strategies and how parents can structure support for children without compromising their own financial security Resources for this episode Ask a question (select the Property podcast) Rask Resources Pete's Buyers Agency Alcove mortgage broking Amy Lunardi Buyers Agency (Melbourne) All services Financial Planning Invest with us Access Show Notes Ask a question We love feedback!
