Australian Property Talk
Welcome to Australian Property Talk — I'm Redom, a property fanatic. I love sharing stories from the 1000's of investors i represent in my day job at one of Australia's biggest mortgage broking companies, Flint.
I have two brilliant co-hosts who bring a perfect blend of expertise on the economy, property trends and where to buy real estate!
One is a former Treasury economist, Curtis Stewart, who runs FlintInvest - an award winning mortgage broking company for property investors Australia-wide. His officially the smartest person i know, and full of golden nuggets!
My other co-host is Adi Chanda, a man everybody loves, a seasoned buyers agent with a giant property portfolio and fellow property nerd. Adi runs Alaya Property with me, adding in a unique economics driven property strategy that outperforms all the herd following data-driven agents dominating the buyers agency scene in 2025.

Australia’s property market is shifting fast, and this episode breaks down exactly what’s happening city by city.
Sydney has hit a speed bump, with higher-end homes weakening while more affordable suburbs continue to rise. Melbourne’s headline numbers look soft, but underneath the surface there may still be major opportunities in selected affordable pockets and apartments. Meanwhile, Perth, Brisbane and Adelaide are still flying, driven by low listings and strong demand.
We also unpack what APRA changes, rising rates, investor tax pressure, yields, housing shortages and buyer sentiment could mean for property investors in 2026.
