The RBA just held rates at 4.35%, and opinion was split right up until the decision. George Markoski breaks down the data behind the call: a new Iran-US ceasefire framework that has pushed oil prices down from the mid-80s to the low 60s, easing inflation pressure, and an unemployment surprise that came in well above the RBA's own forecast.

Rate hike expectations in the market have fallen from 85% in January to just 45% today, with Westpac and CBA both pointing toward cuts in early 2027. Every rate peak in Australian history has been followed by a property boom once cuts began, and the strongest growth has consistently gone to those who bought ahead of confirmation rather than waiting for it. Melanie also joins live to share how 20 years of hesitation turned into three properties, $200,000 in growth on her first purchase alone, and a Legacy Program spot for her teenage son.
