Ben Kingsley sits down with Senator Andrew Bragg, Liberal Senator and Shadow Minister for Housing and Homelessness, for a wide-ranging conversation on the future of housing, tax reform, productivity and Australia’s economic direction.

In this special interview, they unpack the proposed changes to negative gearing and capital gains tax, the growing challenge of housing affordability, construction bottlenecks, energy policy, lending restrictions and what all of this could mean for everyday Australians trying to build wealth through property.

They also explore whether Australia’s housing crisis is really a supply issue, how productivity and red tape are impacting new home construction, and why borrowing capacity rules may be creating unintended consequences across the property market.

Plus, Ben asks the big question many investors are wondering right now:
Will the proposed tax reforms actually improve affordability… or could they create a two-tier property market?

If you want a deeper understanding of the policy debate shaping Australia’s property market, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
