Is Melbourne really the right property market for you in 2025? The headlines say it’s heating up, but that doesn’t mean it suits every investor.
In this episode, Arjun Paliwal breaks down how to assess if Melbourne fits your goals, based on your income, borrowing power, and ability to hold the property long-term. Before jumping into the hype, Arjun shows viewers how to run the numbers for their unique situation.
He explores three income and borrowing scenarios and how they impact what buyers can actually afford in Melbourne’s market, revealing that only a small fraction of suburbs are accessible on a modest budget. Arjun also dives into why some investors end up settling for underperforming units and how that can backfire over time.
With real income-based scenarios, Arjun reveals how much you really need to make Melbourne work and why jumping in too early—or buying the wrong asset—could cost you long-term.
Watch now to find out if Melbourne’s a go or no-go for your portfolio!
