The Property Couch
Australia’s top property podcast for everyday investors who want real results, not hype.
Originally shaped by long-time hosts Ben Kingsley and Bryce Holdaway, The Property Couch has evolved into a new chapter led by Ben alongside the expanded Couch Crew. The foundations remain the same: practical frameworks, clear thinking, and real stories that help Australians make smarter decisions.
Backed by data, banter, and proudly anti-spruiker since 2015!

Why Evan Lucas Thinks Super Could Be Key For First Home Buyers | FUNdamental Fridays
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this Friday Fundamentals episode, Ben is joined by Evan Lucas to unpack a bold policy idea for first home buyers.
Evan’s hill to die on?
Australia should use a super-like system to help people save for their first home deposit.
Instead of relying on grants, 5% deposit schemes, or capped first home buyer programmes, he argues that the super infrastructure already exists and could be used much more effectively to help people build real deposit savings from the moment they enter the workforce.
The conversation explores how the model could work, why saving a deposit remains one of the biggest barriers to home ownership, and the pros and cons of linking long-term retirement savings with first home access.
It’s a big idea — and one that’s guaranteed to spark opinions.
