Perth Property Insider Podcast

Perth's median house price cracked $1 million in the March 2026 quarter. By June it slipped back to $977,000. That's a fall of about 2.3% from the peak, yet still around 4% above December. So is this a Perth property correction or not? In this episode I walk through what the data actually shows, suburb by suburb, and where the real cracks are forming. You’ll hear the strongest house suburbs for the quarter and the pattern that links most of them. I look at why suburbs above $1.6 million grew slower than the middle of the market, and why buyer depth matters more as borrowing capacity tightens. Then I dig into units, where the spread is far wider. If you own, buy or invest in Perth real estate, this episode gives you the full picture. In this episode, you'll learn: ✅ Why Perth's median house price hit $1 million in March and gave part of it back by June ✅ The Perthsuburbs that still grew 7% to 10% in a single quarter as the wider market cooled ✅ Why suburbs with medians above $1.6 million grew slower than the middle of the market ✅ The unit suburbs that surged more than 12% in one quarter, and the one that fell 6.2% ✅ The six to eight week lag built into settled sales data ✅ Four questions every Perth property owner should ask before assuming the last 12 months of growth means nothing’s changed.

Could this be the best time in six years to buy property in Perth? The Perth property market has shifted. Buyers now have more choice, properties are taking longer to sell, and there’s more room to negotiate. But that doesn’t mean you should rush out and buy just because market conditions have changed. In this episode of Perth Property Insider, Jarrad is joined by buyer’s agent Justine to break down what’s really happening in the Perth property market. Along with why the current conditions could create one of the strongest buying opportunities we’ve seen in years. In this episode, we cover: ✅Why Perth is becoming a more balanced property market ✅Why buyers currently have more choice and negotiating power ✅How buying conditions compare with six to twelve months ago ✅How to negotiate property without simply making lowball offers ✅How to assess the true market value of a property ✅Why seller motivation, competition, and time on market matter ✅How subject-to-sale offers are becoming more realistic again ✅Why a softer Perth market can create opportunities for home upgraders ✅Why a better buying opportunity does NOT mean you should simply buy anything Key moments: 00:00:00 Intro 00:03:51 The buyer battle days 00:08:05 Why buyers are winning now 00:11:23 Changeover math 00:15:40 The overpaying trap 00:18:44 Your home as asset 00:23:20 Negative gearing changes 00:29:00 Should you wait longer - Our Services: ✅Get your Strategic Portfolio Plan and our help with Buying Your Next Perth Property ( https://www.investorsedge.com.au/invest-in-perth-property/ ) ✅Get clear on your current property’s outlook and the best strategy for you?

Spring is usually the busiest season of the year for home sales. But spring alone won't sell your home this year. The Perth property market has changed and most sellers are still using the playbook from six months ago. Perth listings have jumped from about 6,200 to 7,200 in five weeks.Sales now take 21 days on average. And buyers have choice again. And when they have choice, a badly timed or badly presented home loses momentum fast - which means the market punishes it on price. In this episode, I take you inside the first three parts of my six-point strategic sale process. It's the process I use with Perth homeowners and investors to create buyer competition and get the best price possible. You’ll hear why the right time to sell depends on your life first and the market second - and why presentation and marketing matter more with every new listing. Tune in to hear about: ✅Why spring is no longer a free pass for Perth sellers ✅The month I'd rather list in, and why it's not the one most people pick ✅What 1,000 extra Perth listings means for your negotiating power ✅The one question to ask before you decide to sell at all ✅The tenancy timing rule Perth investors can't ignore right now ✅When a tenanted sale works, and when vacant possession is worth the cost ✅Why a buyer database beats a postcode in a cooling market ✅How stacking small wins creates the competition that drives price ✅Why the best move is sometimes not selling at all Key moments: 00:00:00 Intro 00:03:10 Upgrade, downsize, or release equity 00:06:00 Tenants and vacant possession 00:10:15 September vs November 00:13:20 Emotive presentation explained 00:17:20 The return of staging 00:20:10 Trifecta of marketing 00:24:45 Social ads and database 00:28:15 Stacking small decisions - Our Services: ✅Get your Strategic Portfolio Plan and our help with Buying Your Next Perth Property ( https://www.investorsedge.com.au/invest-in-perth-property/ ) ✅Get clear on your current property’s outlook and the best strategy for you?

You do not need perfect market conditions or complete certainty before investing in property. But you do need a few key things in place first. In this episode, Jarrad Mahon reveals how to know if you're truly ready to buy an investment property. And what actually makes an investor ready might surprise you, because it has little to do with doing more research, waiting longer, or what the market is doing.

Owning a property for a long time doesn't make it the right property. Neither does the fact that it's gone up in value (because nearly all Perth property has). For years the market ran hot, and a rising tide made average decisions look like smart ones. Now it's cooling, buyers have choice again. And the difference between a strong asset and a lazy one is finally starting to show. In this episode of Perth Property Insider, host Jarrad Mahon shares one deceptively simple question that brings instant clarity to every property you own. From there, he unpacks what your properties should actually be doing for you, and how so many quietly drift off course without anyone noticing. Inside the episode, you'll discover: ✅The single question that tells you whether to hold, improve, or let go ✅Why a property that's doubled in value can still be the wrong one for you ✅Three warning signs a property needs a proper review, hiding in plain sight ✅What your equity may be doing wrong while it just sits there ✅The four honest outcomes of a review, and how to choose one without fear If you own even one investment property, this conversation could change how you look at your whole portfolio.

Perth property investors are often told to avoid units. But the right apartment, villa, or townhouse can outperform the "safe" house strategy (when you know how to stack up the full picture). In this episode of Perth Property Insider, Jarrad Mahon and buyer's agent Justine Destura challenge one of the most stubborn beliefs in property investing: that houses always beat units. Using a real client's portfolio projection, they compare buying one $850,000 property against two units at around $600,000 each - with surprising results. But let's be clear, this is not a green light to buy any unit you can find. There are specific criteria you must get right. Miss just one, and a promising investment can turn into a long, expensive headache. Tune in to discover: ✅ How the end of negative gearing changed the units vs houses debate ✅ The layer of research almost every investor skips before buying a strata property ✅ Why a very low strata fee can be a red flag, not a bargain ✅ How to properly assess the suburb, pocket, complex, property, and purchase price ✅ How Perth CBD, West Leederville, Maylands, and Wembley stack up ✅ The simple “$1,000 offer” strategy that keeps winning properties at the $600K stamp duty threshold ✅ How to compete for in-demand Perth units without overpaying or getting caught up in the heat of a bidding war Whether you're building your first investment strategy or expanding a Perth property portfolio on limited borrowing capacity, this episode gives you the framework to judge any unit before you spend a dollar.

Could 50,000 more blocks in Perth soon become subdividable? The WA Government has announced major proposed changes to the Residential Design Codes, potentially unlocking thousands of new subdivision and infill-development opportunities across Perth. But before property owners and investors rush to buy development sites, there are important risks, timeframes and practical issues to understand. In this episode of Perth Property Insider, Jarrad is joined by Anton Flynn from Subdivison Experts to reveal what the proposed WA R-Codes reforms could actually mean for R20-zoned properties, 700m² blocks, granny flats, dual-key developments, and Perth’s future housing supply. You’ll hear why the reforms could be a major opportunity for existing property owners - with one important caveat. You’ll learn: ✅Why some 700m² R20 blocks could potentially be subdivided into two ✅How the proposed changes differ from current R20 subdivision requirements ✅What the reforms could mean for Perth property values and development potential ✅The specific group of people who owners may benefit most from the changes ✅A potentially overlooked issue that may create congestion in established suburbs ✅Why local councils may resist parts of the proposed planning reforms ✅The critical timing factor that determines when investors should avoid buying property ✅Two things that may be just as important as rezoning land Key moments: 00:00:00 Intro 00:03:20 Fixing code complexity 00:06:40 Parking and street chaos 00:09:40 Don't buy on hype 00:12:40 New property tax edge 00:15:40 What's actually confirmed 00:18:40 Councils get bypassed 00:21:40 The build cost seesaw 00:24:40 Watch the backlash - Resource Link ✅Connect with Anton Flynn from Perth Subdivision Experts https://www.subdivisionexperts.com.au/ ✅Get your Rental Health Score now to ensure your Perth rental property is optimised for returns and sleeping well at night https://rentalhealth.scoreapp.com/ Would you like to get clear on your current property’s outlook and the best strategy for you?

What happens to Australian property prices, rents, and housing affordability when government policy changes? In this episode of Perth Property Insider, I take a completely non-partisan look at how the housing policies of Labor, the Coalition, and One Nation could reshape the Australian property market. I break down what each party's policies actually encourage and what that means for property prices, rents, housing supply, migration, inflation, interest rates, and investor confidence.

The gap between an average Perth investment property and a high-performing rental comes down to four hidden levers. Pull all four, and your Perth rental property performs at its peak, with strong yields, and lower stress. Miss just one, and you could be losing thousands every year without even knowing it. Right now, Perth landlords are facing rising interest rates, new rental reforms, and tenants who expect more than ever. That makes a property ‘health check’ more important than at any point in the last decade. In this episode of Perth Property Insider, Jarrad sits down with Jewayne Loong, former REIWA Property Manager of the Year - to share the four pillars that decide whether your Perth investment property is building wealth or leaking it. Tune in to discover: ✅ Why chasing the highest rent often kills your real return ✅ How to tell if your Perth rental is truly performing at market rate ✅ Can keeping a great tenant below market value actually pay off? ✅ How property condition shapes your rent, tenant quality, and future sale price ✅ The simple checks that prove your property manager is doing their job ✅ What world-class property management in Perth should look like in 2026 ✅ The warning signs of an underperforming rental (and how to fix them fast) Key moments: 00:00:00 Intro 00:02:40 Proactive landlords vs set and forget 00:05:40 Rent pricing strategy 00:08:40 Vacancy rates and the data trap 00:11:40 Attracting quality tenants 00:14:20 The extreme tenant screening process 00:18:20 Property condition and value 00:21:20 Why property management matters 00:25:40 Warning signs of an underperforming rental 00:28:20 The free Perth Rental Health Score - Resource Link Get your Rental Health Score now to ensure your Perth rental property is optimised for returns and sleeping well at night https://rentalhealth.scoreapp.com/ Would you like to get clear on your current property’s outlook and the best strategy for you?

Is Australian inflation really cooling, or is the worst still ahead for borrowers and property investors? The headlines say one thing. Yet the Reserve Bank of Australia is saying something very different. And the difference between those two stories will shape interest rates, mortgage repayments, and the Australian property market for the next 12 months. In this episode of Perth Property Insider, Jarrad Mahon breaks down the latest Australian inflation data, the RBA's next move on interest rates, and what it all means for property investors, borrowers, and homeowners across Australia. Whilst headline inflation has started to ease, the bigger issue is underlying inflation - especially services inflation, rental pressure, wage growth, housing shortages, and government spending. Hit play to get the full picture before the next RBA announcement, and learn what every property investor in Australia needs to do right now to stay ahead. In this video, we cover: ✅The truth about inflation and whether it's really under control ✅Why the RBA may hold interest rates higher for longer in 2026 ✅Headline inflation vs underlying inflation (and the one number the RBA actually watches) ✅How rental inflation and the Australian housing shortage are pushing CPI up ✅Why federal government spending may be working against the RBA ✅How fuel prices, energy costs, and the Iran conflict are feeding Australian inflation ✅What higher interest rates really mean for Australian borrowers and property investors ✅The important metrics that now matter more than capital growth Key moments: 00:00:00 Intro 00:03:00 Headline vs underlying 00:05:40 RBA cautious thinking 00:08:40 The government spending problem 00:11:50 Tax uncertainty 00:15:10 Energy transition costs 00:16:40 What happens next 00:19:50 Investor takeaway - Resource Link • Get your Rental Health Score now to ensure your Perth rental property is optimised for returns and sleeping well at night https://rentalhealth.scoreapp.com/ Would you like to get clear on your current property’s outlook and the best strategy for you?
