Van Onselen vs Keen vs Cashmore on property
30/01/2012
Listen to Professor Steve Keen (head of economics at Kingston University in the UK), Leith Van Onselen (co-creator of Macrobusiness.com.au) and Catherine Cashmore (renowned property commentator) discuss the Australian Property Market.
With mainstream media attention focused on whether Australia is or isn’t in a real estate bubble, and the atmosphere around Sydney prices becoming rarefied, Gunnamatta spoke with Leith Van Onselen, Catherine Cashmore, and special guest, Professor Steve Keen, on the current real estate market, the supply and demand drivers articulated by that market, and the future economic implications for Australia.
In a wide ranging discussion which runs for nearly 90 minutes, and has been divided into 3 parts, the speakers look at: the motivations of buyers and investors; the treatment of real estate by the taxation and planning systems; negative gearing and the political and generational dead-end Australia finds itself in when trying to address real estate issues; logical responses from the government and RBA and comparisons with New Zealand’s politicians and central bankers; and industry responses.
