In this episode of The Pure Property Podcast, Phil Tarrant and Paul Glossop are joined by investor Ali Akbarian to explore the shifting landscape of Australian property investment amid falling housing approvals and tightening stock levels.
They highlight a 10 per cent drop in approvals against five-year averages, noting that government targets to build 1.2 million homes are unlikely to be met due to labour shortages and high construction costs.
Despite three interest rate cuts this year, the hosts argue that easing monetary policy won’t solve fundamental supply constraints.
Property listings are also down 11 per cent, particularly during the typically busy spring period, driving stronger competition and higher prices.
The government’s new 5 per cent deposit scheme has boosted buyer interest, but the hosts warn that high loan-to-value borrowing in a rising market poses financial risks.
Akbarian shares how disciplined strategy and expert advice helped him grow from a beginner to a 14-property portfolio worth over $9 million, reinforcing the importance of aligning investment goals with professional guidance and a strong mindset.

Is property development all it’s cracked up to be?
Australia’s business landscape can teach us a lot about property development.
In this episode of The Pure Property Podcast, co-hosts Phil Tarrant and Paul Glossop take a look at the enduring allure of property development for Australian investors.
While the potential for significant returns is undeniable, Phil and Paul flag the importance of treading with caution, touching on the perks and the pitfalls of the decision to jump into development.
Acknowledging the area of investment as not for the faint of heart, the pair also unpack the psychological decision-making that comes with calculated risk-taking in the space, before dissecting the evolving regulatory landscape that could be both a help or a hindrance to any investor.
