Weekly Slice 267: The highest performing area in Melbourne and why you DON'T want to buy here now! with Steve Ash & Todd Sloan

The highest performing area in Melbourne and why you DON'T want to buy here now! 

 

 

Is Melbourne's highest performing market actually the best place to buy right now, or not?

 

In this episode, Todd is joined by Steve Ash of Property Strats, and they break down the growing gap between reported data and what is happening on the ground. While the numbers suggest one story, recent sales and valuations reveal another, raising serious questions about timing, pricing, and whether buyers are already paying tomorrow's prices today.

 

The discussion explores why this market may still reward patient, long term holders but could hold back investors chasing faster growth and better cash flow. It also highlights why other Melbourne locations may offer stronger opportunities right now, especially for those looking to scale.

 

This is a must-watch that challenges the headlines and shows why strong performance doesn't always equal a smart entry point for investors.
