The Gold Coast property market is not just expensive. It is changing how an entire generation thinks about buying, renting and building a future here.
In this episode of Buying Gold Coast, I sit down with Ryo Takamizawa to unpack the Gold Coast housing conversation from a Gen Z perspective.
We talk about what young buyers are really feeling right now, why Gen Z has not given up on property ownership, and how affordability, rental pressure, supply issues and city planning are shaping the future of the Gold Coast.
It is not just about buying a home. It is about understanding the kind of city we are building, who gets to live here, and how housing impacts lifestyle, health, community and opportunity.
