One sector of the property market particularly hard hit by the effects of the pandemic is the inner city apartment markets in our biggest cities.

Joining us this episode of Property Unpacked to break down what’s happening and how apartments are faring compared to other parts of the market is Elizabeth Redman, Domain’s deputy news editor.

Also in this episode, Domain Advice editor Daniel shares what unexpected costs can arise when purchasing a home.
