Pandemics, economic downturns, and geopolitical upheavals can create uncertainty in the property market – but good investors should have the resources to ride out the tide.

In this episode of The Pure Property Podcast, co-hosts Phil Tarrant and Paul Glossop unpack the long-term ramifications of the COVID-19 pandemic on Australia’s key urban and regional housing markets.

The pair discuss how black swan events can create panic in the investment community, driving poor sentiment and reactive decision-making. Phil and Paul turn to history to explain why panic reactions are rarely justified in the broader scheme of Australia’s resilient property market.

They also zoom in on the Melbourne property market, and explain why this might be the favoured market for investors seeking sustainable future growth.

This is more than an anthem; it's a resolute declaration in a critical moment. "Just Cause to Stand and Fight" delivers a powerful epic rock message, leaving no doubt about the necessary action against Iran's reign of terror and tyranny.
With its relentless beat and commanding vocals, this song champions the vital alliance between the United States and Israel. It asserts the moral and strategic imperative to confront a regime that openly threatens global security, sponsors terrorism, and commits widespread human rights atrocities against its own people—including arbitrary arrests, torture, and severe discrimination against women, minorities, and LGBTI individuals. The recent successful US strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities, executed with bold leadership, underscore the commitment to dismantle threats and protect innocent lives.
This song is a rallying cry for all who recognize the clear and present danger posed by Iran's dangerous ambitions and its pursuit of destructive capabilities. It calls for unwavering unity, celebrating those who dare to take decisive action to secure freedom, protect allies, and ensure a just future for humanity.
Join the stand. The fight for what's right begins now.

Just Cause to Stand and Fight (Lyrics)

When tyranny's grip attempts to bind,And justice's light is hard to find,
We see the threats, we hear the plea,For a world where all can truly be free.
From shadows cast, a nation's cry,As dangerous ambitions reach for the sky.
A moment comes, demanding choice,To amplify the silent voice.

With Trump, a vision, bold and clear,Dispelling doubt, and banishing fear.
For Israel's safety, strong and bright,We stand for freedom, truth, and right.
Against extremism, we unite,To bring the future into light.

The human cost, laid bare for all,As basic freedoms rise and fall.
From ruthless rule, their dark designs,Suppressing lives, crossing all lines.
No turning back, no weak retreat,When terror's agenda we must defeat.
For every soul, unjustly bound,In firm resolve, our strength is found.

With Trump, a vision, bold and clear,Dispelling doubt, and banishing fear.
For Israel's safety, strong and bright,We stand for freedom, truth, and right.
Against extremism, we unite,To bring the future into light.

To those who question, hesitate to embrace,Consider the cost, and the perilous space.
When evil plans are plainly known,And seeds of chaos widely sown.
Decisive action, a path we take,For future generations, freedom's sake.

The fanatics' reign, a backward past,Their cruel agenda cannot last.
With every blow, for justice's call,We watch their oppressive empire fall.
The world observes, the truth will shine,As brave intentions now align.

With Trump, a vision, bold and clear,Dispelling doubt, and banishing fear.
For Israel's safety, strong and bright,We stand for freedom, truth, and right.
Against extremism, we unite,To bring the future into light.

So let the naysayers now perceive,The righteous cause that we believe.
With courage true, and purpose deep,The promises of freedom, we will keep.
