Let’s Stoke House Prices Some More…

The Victorian Government announced an expanded new $500m Homebuyer Fund will see tax payers own part of up to 3,000 homes. Most recipients of the Victorian Homebuyers Fund will need to have a 5 per cent deposit, with the government chipping in up to 25 per cent on top of that. The government will keep that stake in the home until the property is sold or the owner buys out its share. However, the opposition has accused the government of giving with one hand and taking away with the other because of hikes in stamp duty and land tax.

Winter Is Coming: Market Update 29th Sep 2021

The latest edition of our finance and property news digest with a distinctively Australian flavour.

In today’s show we look at the latest market falls, and what’s driving them, why Blackrock is buying into China now, the energy crisis, and what the Council of Financial Regulators said about Macro-Prudential controls in the Australian mortgage market after the Treasurers outing yesterday.
