CIOB: The Westpac Property Economic Update

*Please note: this event is for over 18’s only

Insightful Analysis: Join us once again for the informative Property Economic Update breakfast.

Despite increasing talk and media coverage about needing to build more homes, approvals continue to lag and undersupply remains a feature of the sector. However, now that the RBA has embarked on a rate easing cycle, what is the prospect for more building activity outside of infrastructure? How will tariffs affect the domestic economy, directly or indirectly and also what is the outlook for interest rates and how may this affect the commercial property construction sector into 2026?.

Speaker

Hear expert speaker, Frank Allen, Westpac's Director of Property Markets, as he provides an in-depth overview and outlook on the current financial market and how it effects the economy, interest rates and commercial property construction.
