Australian Property Success with Josh

Picture yourself one year from today
Imagine yourself one year from now.
Same position.
Same knowledge.
Same reasons for waiting.
Or…
Clearer thinking.
Stronger conviction.
One or two decisions you were nervous about — but genuinely proud you made.
The difference won’t be luck.
It won’t be perfect timing.
It’ll be the choice to stop waiting for certainty and start building momentum.
You don’t need to change everything this week.
You just need to start.

Brisbane looks safe right now — and that’s exactly why I’m cautious.
Prices are up. Migration headlines are loud. Rents are tight. The Olympics get mentioned every five minutes.
So most people assume Brisbane will just keep going.
But when you update the data, the risk profile has changed:
• Demand is still positive — but lower than the peak
• Yields have materially compressed
• A lot of future growth was pulled forward
• Higher-for-longer rates leave far less margin for error
Brisbane doesn’t need to fall for investors to be disappointed — it just needs to grow more slowly after a big run.

👇 Do you think Brisbane has another broad-based growth phase left… or does it become a much more selective market from here?

Waiting feels safe… but there’s a cost nobody talks about
Waiting feels harmless because nothing bad happens immediately.
That’s what makes it seductive.
But the cost shows up later.
You pay in:
• experience you never gained
• pattern recognition you didn’t build
• confidence that never formed
Years down the line, you don’t regret the mistakes you made. You regret the time you spent standing still.
Progress doesn’t demand certainty.
It demands participation.
You don’t have to rush — but you do have to move.

Melbourne feels broken — but the data says something very different.
Prices have gone sideways. Investors have pulled back. Sentiment is awful.
So it feels like Melbourne is done.
But when you actually look under the hood — rents, vacancy, population growth and supply — this isn’t market failure. It’s market transition.
In this most recent update I break down:
• Why Melbourne sentiment is uniquely negative
• Why rental data contradicts the “uninvestable” narrative
• How Melbourne has quietly become a two-speed market
• Where risk is rising — and where opportunity is forming for selective buyers

👇 What do you think — is Melbourne’s weakness structural and permanent… or cyclical and temporary?

If I were starting property investing in 2026, this is exactly how I’d do it.
Not a forecast.
Not a rate call.
A framework for moving without waiting for perfect conditions.
In this video I walk through:
• Why waiting quietly destroys execution
• Why market selection beats asset selection in 2026
• Why suburb choice drives most outcomes
• Why cash-flow resilience matters more than it has in years
This is for anyone who wants progress without constant stress — and decisions that still work if conditions stay uneven longer than expected.

👇 Be honest — are you optimising for maximum growth, or deliberately structuring for durability and sleep-at-night investing?

Perth is not a fragile market in January 2026
This is pressure-cooker conditions.

Perth median days on market are now ~8 days.
Listings are at the tightest levels on record.

That combination only means one thing: price pressure is immense.

At this point:
• buyers aren’t negotiating
• listings are being absorbed almost instantly
• even average stock is clearing quickly
• vendors set the terms, not the market

This isn’t being driven by optimism or hype — it’s math. There simply isn’t enough stock for the level of demand that still exists, even in a higher-rate environment.

And the most important part people miss:
When days on market are this low, prices don’t need demand to surge to keep rising — supply just needs to stay constrained.

You don’t need to do everything — just this one thing
You don’t need to reinvent your life this year.
You don’t need five properties, perfect timing, or a master plan stretching 20 years into the future.
You need one meaningful move.
One suburb you actually understand.
One deal you’ve analysed properly.
One decision that feels slightly uncomfortable — but considered.
Most people stall because they think progress has to be dramatic. It doesn’t.
Momentum usually starts quietly. So quietly you almost miss it.
Ask yourself this Sunday: what’s the one lever I keep circling but not pulling?

📊 Perth didn’t cool into December — it tightened.
The spring listings everyone was waiting for… never arrived.
Instead, stock kept falling, demand held, and prices repriced faster.
In this December update, I break down:
• What the latest Perth data is actually showing
• Why supply never loosened into spring
• Where growth is rotating now (and where risk is rising)
• How I’d approach Perth heading into a realistic 12–15% 2026 setup

👇 Quick one — do you think Perth finally gets more stock in early 2026, or do sellers keep sitting tight?

🚩 This image is a massive red flag for property investors.

This is Melton in Melbourne’s west.
And what you’re looking at isn’t opportunity — it’s future competition.

See all that vacant land surrounding the suburb?
That’s not “room to grow”. That’s decades of incoming supply.

Here’s why suburbs like this (Melton and any suburb with these characteristics) quietly destroy long-term returns:

• You’re not buying scarcity — you’re buying into an expandable boundary
• Every new estate competes directly with existing stock
• Prices can rise temporarily when demand surges
• But once supply catches up, growth stalls

Yes — Melton might show strong price growth right now.
That’s how this trap works.

Demand hits first.
Investors pile in.
Charts look great.
Then the land releases keep coming… and coming… and coming.

The result isn’t a crash.
It’s worse.

👉 Sideways price movement for decades.
Rising holding costs.
Compressed yields.
And investors wondering why “nothing’s happening” despite a growing population.

Property markets don’t reward popularity.
They reward scarcity.

If you’re buying where tomorrow’s supply is already mapped, zoned, and approved —
you’re not early.
You’re late.

And the market will eventually make that very clear.

📉 Listings Are Still Missing — And That Matters More Than Headlines

This chart shows total listings vs the 5-year average — and despite all the talk about “more supply coming,” most capitals are still materially undersupplied.

A few key takeaways:
• Perth remains extreme — listings are ~35–40% below normal
• Brisbane & Adelaide are still deeply constrained
• Sydney is the only market meaningfully above average
• Melbourne looks balanced on the surface, but hasn’t meaningfully rebuilt stock either

Here’s the important bit 👇
Price pressure doesn’t come from demand alone — it comes from demand colliding with thin supply. And outside Sydney, that collision risk is still very real.

This is why:
• prices keep surprising to the upside
• “rate cut optimism” isn’t the main driver
• timing the market based on sentiment keeps failing

📊 The cycle doesn’t turn when people feel cautious — it turns when listings actually rebuild.
We’re not there yet.

Question for you all:
Do you think listings normalise in 2026… or stay structurally tight longer than most expect?
