Middle East conflict: what it means for Australia
Rising global energy prices don’t hit everyone equally, and Australia sits in a unique position.
On one hand, we benefit. As a major exporter of gas and coal, higher prices boost national income, government revenue, and mining profits.
On the other hand, we feel the pain. Australia imports most of its fuel, so global shocks quickly mean:
• Higher petrol prices
• Increased cost of living
• Rising business and construction costs
The result? A split economy where resource exporters gain and households and builders face growing pressure.
Housing is where it really bites. Higher fuel and material costs make building more expensive, slowing new supply, while higher interest rates reduce borrowing power.
End result: slower house price growth, but ongoing housing shortages and rising rents.

Had to share this one – it truly is something special.
The original “Red Marley” farmhouse, beautifully enhanced over time while retaining its character and charm, and set against spectacular views. A genuine piece of Tamborine Mountain history.

Why Are Houses Taking So Long to Build?

The average home now takes over 10 months to complete, compared to just 6–7 months in normal times. With delays and costs piling up, modular construction is stepping into the spotlight as a smarter, faster way to build.

Modular homes are built in factories, not just on-site, cutting construction time by up to 50% and reducing costs by 10–20%. No weather delays, less material waste, and better quality control.

💡 How?

Skilled labour is used more efficiently
Workflows are streamlined
Materials are managed in one location
Quality is assured through repeatable, standardised processes

In a time when every month (and every dollar) counts, modular might just be the way forward for faster, smarter, and more affordable housing.

💼 Working from home isn’t for everyone, or every business.

As more companies bring their teams back to the office, commercial property is starting to shine again.

Could commercial be the new ‘sweetheart’ of the property world? With changing work habits and strong leasing demand in key areas, it just might be.

Thinking about investing in, or leasing a commercial space?
Let’s talk, I have a few properties to choose from.

📢 New Laws for Sellers in QLD. Are You Across the Changes?

Queensland has introduced mandatory Seller’s Disclosure Statements for most residential property sales, coming into effect on the 1st of August 2025.

This means that before a contract is signed, sellers must now provide buyers with a standard disclosure form outlining key details, including title, zoning, easements, and other material facts.

If you are planning to sell (or even just thinking about it), it is really important to understand how these new rules could impact your sale.
