Four months into the government's expanded 5% deposit scheme, the data is telling a story that most Australians aren't ready to hear. Australia's biggest real estate data company just released numbers showing homes under the scheme price caps are rising 1.5 times faster than the rest of the market. This isn't opinion, this is raw data from nearly 90 regions across the country. When you boost demand without fixing supply, prices rise every single time. In this In this Daily Property Update Ep. 118, I break down the uncomfortable truth about first home buyer schemes, what the numbers actually say about government policy, and where the Australian housing market is heading in 2026. Whether you're a first time buyer watching prices accelerate beyond your reach, an investor trying to understand where pressure is building, or a renter wondering when relief will arrive, this data matters. The housing crisis isn't getting better, it's getting more complex, and understanding what's really happening is the first step to making smarter decisions about property investment and homeownership in Australia.
