Australian property investors are selling up in record numbers &ndash; and the 2025 PIPA Investor Survey finally reveals why.&nbsp; In this solo episode, Bushy Martin breaks down the truth behind the rental crisis and what it really means for everyday Australians trying to build wealth. Bushy unpacks the biggest shifts in this year&rsquo;s PIPA survey, including: <ul> <li> Record investor exits (16% sold in the last year) and why most of those properties left the rental market. </li> <li> Costs rising 10&ndash;40% while 65% of investors are passing on less than 10% to tenants. </li> <li> Major fear triggers like negative gearing reform, CGT changes, land tax hikes and compliance blowouts. </li> <li> State-level pain, with QLD and VIC hit hardest. </li> <li> A surprising silver lining &mdash; nearly 60% of investors still believe it&rsquo;s a good time to buy. </li> </ul> He then zooms out to reveal the bigger truth most commentators are missing: <blockquote>You don&rsquo;t fix a shortage by shrinking the supply.</blockquote> <blockquote>Investor exits mean fewer rentals, higher rents and more pressure on the people who can least afford it.</blockquote> Bushy also shares his foresight on what&rsquo;s coming next &mdash; from the likely intensification of the rental crunch to interest rate expectations and why contrarian investors may quietly win the next cycle. Finally, he gives you his clear GPS for what to do now: <ul> <li> Strengthen emotional resilience and think long-term </li> <li> Stress-test your buffers and compliance load </li> <li> Avoid hype, focus on fundamentals and buy where true scarcity exists </li> </ul> &nbsp; PIPA Resources This episode draws on insights from the Property Investment Professionals of Australia (PIPA). <a href="https://www.pipa.asn.au/knowledge/">Explore more</a>: https://www.pipa.asn.au/knowledge/ Download the full <a href="https://www.pipa.asn.au/wp-content/uploads/PIPA_Investor-Survey-Report_2025.pdf">2025 PIPA Survey</a>: https://www.pipa.asn.au/wp-content/uploads/PIPA_Investor-Survey-Report_2025.pdf Contacts: <ul> <li> Cate Bakos (Chair): cate@catebakos.com.au </li> <li> Mike Mortlock (Treasurer): mike.mortlock@mcgqs.com.au </li> <li> Matt Monaghan (GM): matt@pipa.asn.au </li> <li> Nicola McDougall (Adviser/Editor): nicola@bricksandmortarmedia.com.au </li> </ul> Take the next step with Bushy Personal Solutions Session Get clarity and personalised guidance: <a href="https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule.php?owner=12550363&appointmentType=category:Let%27s%20Connect%20you%20with%20Bushy%20Martin%20%28PSS%2FPMS%29">Book now</a> Property W.E.A.L.T.H Program - live now!
