If you've been wondering whether Australia's housing boom still has legs, or if we've already hit the peak of this cycle, then today's episode will give you the clarity you've been looking for.

Because, according to Dr Andrew Wilson, home prices across our capital cities accelerated again in October — marking the strongest monthly growth in nearly four years.
