In this exclusive webinar, Tim Graham (Hotspotting) and Daniel Petersen (CEO, iBuyNew) unpack the two biggest stories in Australian real estate right now: Brisbane’s continued surge and Melbourne’s long-awaited revival.
Over the past few years, Brisbane has been fuelled by powerful demand drivers — record population growth, ultra-tight vacancy rates, major infrastructure investment, and the transformational lead-up to the 2032 Olympics. Meanwhile, after a period of stagnation, negative sentiment, and heavy rental legislation changes, Melbourne is now showing clear and sustained signs of recovery.
In this replay, Tim and Dan take a deep dive into:
🔥 Brisbane: Momentum, Undersupply & Olympic Tailwinds
Why Brisbane remains far from its peak despite four years of rapid price growth
How population growth has doubled compared to the decade prior
Severe housing undersupply — with apartment delivery sitting at only 25% of required levels
The $200B+ infrastructure pipeline reshaping SEQ
Why the 2032 Olympics could accelerate Brisbane into a globally recognised city.
📉 Melbourne: From Stagnation to Revival
What caused Melbourne’s flat performance: COVID fallout, rapid rate hikes, outbound migration & property tax changes
How negative sentiment and investor sell-offs created short-term oversupply
Why the tide has turned: renewed population growth, rental yields climbing to 5%+, and eight months of consistent price growth
Where sales momentum is strongest: City of Melbourne, Frankston, Hume & key middle-ring suburbs.
🏙 Units vs Houses — The New Reality
Why units are now outperforming houses in growth and rental yield across most capitals
The rising demand from first-home buyers, downsizers, lifestyle seekers & new migrants
How affordability pressures are reshaping buyer behaviour nationwide
