Summary

Insightful Analysis: Join us once again for the informative Property Economic Update breakfast.
Inflationary pressures were building and the RBA had lifted rates once before the outbreak in the middle east added more uncertainty to the economic and inflation outlook. The extended duration of the conflict has only added to the uncertainty. What is the outlook for interest rates and how is this expected to affect the country’s property markets and the construction sector in particular?
