Welcome to the Urban Property Investor. In this episode, we’re diving deep into the Australian real estate market, exploring how government policies are shifting us from a capitalist to what some might call a socialist model.

We’ll be looking at the Cloward-Piven model and what it means for housing, the undeniable impact of rising demand against dwindling supply, and the real challenges property investors are facing today.
