The Property Hotspots Everyone Loves That We Said No To

In this episode, we unpack the property markets that didn't make our National Top 10 Best Buys 2026 — and why those omissions are just as important as the locations we included.

Markets like Perth, Adelaide, the Gold Coast, Darwin and parts of regional Queensland have delivered standout growth. But we explain why being hot today doesn't always translate to strong future returns, and how competitive conditions can make buying well far more difficult.

You'll hear how we identify early-cycle markets, why we avoid locations that have already had their best run, and where we believe the next wave of growth across Australia is starting to emerge.

If you want to invest ahead of the cycle rather than chase yesterday's winners, this episode will give you a clear edge.
