Know Your Wish, Want & Walk with Meggie Palmer

How more Australians can enter into the property market - how they can have dignified, secure housing that delivers good capital growth - is the multi-million dollar question.
And it's one that Evan Thornley might have an answer to.

In this episode, the tech pioneer, founder of LongView and co-founder of GoodStart, argues that while the system is fundamentally broken, there is a data-driven path to home ownership that is easier to access and better long term than the traditional means of being indebted to a bank. 

In this episode, you’ll learn:


Why the family home remains the "single best investment in the history of the world"


How analyzing 50 years of data across 11 million properties helps identify the specific types of homes that consistently outperform the market


The potential held by shared equity and housing funds


Evan's personal journey from a single-parent family to Silicon Valley success, why he’s now dedicated to fixing the housing ladder for the next generation and his own biggest lessons

Why 1950s brick homes are becoming the gold standard for savvy long-term buyers.
