Since we published the 2026 Wakelin Melbourne Property Report early this year, the landscape has shifted materially. Negative gearing and capital gains tax (CGT) changes have been legislated. New state-level reforms are in play. And the confidence that was beginning to rebuild through 2025 has been tested from multiple directions at once.
In this episode, Jarrod surveys the forces now shaping Melbourne’s market – what’s been settled, what’s still pending, and what the data is telling us about conditions on the ground.
