  2. Will Interest Rates Ever Fall Again? The Big Picture Podcast with Ken Raiss

Sep 24, 2025

Everyone was banking on another interest rate cut this year – but what if it never comes?

In this month’ Big Picture Podcast, Ken Raiss and I will unpack why the economy is running hotter than expected, and what that means for rates, housing, and your mortgage.

We also explain how the Bank of Mum and Dad is helping nearly 1 in 5 first-home buyers who get financial help from their parents and what this means for housing affordability.

 

And we forecast how Australia’s rental crisis is about to get worse as investors are leaving the market in record numbers at a time when the government has no way of achieving its big housing targets.

·         The economy is running hotter than expected.
