Australia’s top property podcast for everyday investors who want real results, not hype.


Originally shaped by long-time hosts Ben Kingsley and Bryce Holdaway, The Property Couch has evolved into a new chapter led by Ben alongside the expanded Couch Crew. The foundations remain the same: practical frameworks, clear thinking, and real stories that help Australians make smarter decisions.


Backed by data, banter, and proudly anti-spruiker since 2015!

  • 590 | Property Shock: War, Rates & Tax Reforms, Reshapes Everything! - Chat with Nerida Conisbee
    Mar 26 2026

    The property market is facing a perfect storm…

    Global conflict is driving supply shocks.

    Inflation is creeping back in.

    Interest rates are rising again.

    And now… tax reform is back on the table.

    In this groundbreaking episode, Ben is joined by Ray White Chief Economist Nerida Conisbee and Behavioural Economist Evan Lucas to unpack how these forces are colliding and exactly what it could mean for property prices, investors, and the broader economy.

    From shifting buyer sentiment to construction cost pressures and the potential changes to capital gains tax and negative gearing, this is one of the most important conversations we’ve had on the future of Australia’s housing market.

  • TPC Gold | Why Chasing Hotspots Doesn’t Work (And What to Do Instead)
    Mar 24 2026

    When Bryce and Ben first teamed up, they realised that successful property investing isn’t a one-time event... it’s a repeatable process.

    In this bonus episode, they revisit the five-step framework they created to help investors build sustainable portfolios. They also unpack one of the biggest traps in property investing and explain why headlines and hype often lead to “Frankenstein Portfolios.”

  • Cash Is King (And Why No One Talks About It)
    Mar 20 2026

    Welcome to Episode 2 of “The Money Stuff We Don’t Talk About”, our Friday mini-series inside The Property Couch.

    Each week, one member of the Couch Crew shares a bold money stance and unpacks the financial truths most investors don’t talk about.

    This week, Polly Chu shares the hill she’ll die on:

    💵 Cash is king.

    Having experienced the GFC early in her career, navigated investment banking during volatile markets, and built her own portfolio, Polly understands what happens when liquidity disappears.

    Her rule of thumb? Three to six months of cash buffer. Minimum.

    Because when markets turn, cash buys you time. And time protects you from making forced decisions at the worst possible moment.

    New episode every Friday.


    Psst. Check out Ep 1 with Ben T on the most transparent way to buy property
