Before the TGB Australian Building Industry Health Report drops, Az puts you to the test.

This episode is a pop quiz built from real data inside the report — land prices, shrinking blocks, customer sentiment, and the one factor that determines a five-star review more than anything else.

No headlines today. Just some numbers that genuinely surprised us when we were putting the report together.

Have a crack. See how close you get.

What we cover:

• The current national median residential lot price — and how fast it's growing
• Which capital city is now more expensive for land than Melbourne (hint: it's not Sydney)
• The capital city with the smallest median lot size in the country
• Why Australians feel it's the worst time to buy — even as they expect prices to keep rising
• The phase of the building journey that generates the most customer complaints by a wide margin
• What 97,000 customer reviews say is the single biggest driver of a five-star rating
• How much more a new home costs today compared to pre-COVID — and what's forecast for 2026
