Perth and Adelaide are the exceptions. "Adelaide has actually been like a steam train-- you can't stop it," she said. "And Perth simply hasn't decreased."

Rental rates for homes are anticipated to increase in the next year, reaching all-time highs in Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth, the Gold Coast, and the Sunshine Coast.

Regional units are slated for a total cost boost of 3 to 5 per cent, which "states a lot about cost in terms of purchasers being guided towards more budget-friendly residential or commercial property types", Powell said.
Melbourne's residential or commercial property market remains an outlier, with expected moderate yearly growth of up to 2 percent for houses. This will leave the median home cost at in between $1.03 million and $1.05 million, marking the slowest and most irregular recovery in the city's history.

The Melbourne real estate market experienced a prolonged depression from 2022 to 2023, with the average home cost dropping by 6.3% - a substantial $69,209 reduction - over a period of 5 consecutive quarters.

With more price increases on the horizon, the report is not encouraging news for those attempting to save for a deposit.

According to Powell, the implications vary depending upon the type of purchaser. For existing homeowners, postponing a choice may lead to increased equity as prices are predicted to climb.

According to Powell, the housing market in Australia may get an extra boost, although this might be reversed by a decline in the acquiring power of consumers, as the expense of living boosts at a faster rate than salaries. Powell cautioned that if wage growth remains stagnant, it will cause a continued battle for price and a subsequent decrease in demand.

Throughout rural and outlying areas of Australia, the worth of homes and apartments is anticipated to increase at a consistent speed over the coming year, with the projection varying from one state to another.

"Simultaneously, a swelling population, fueled by robust influxes of new citizens, supplies a substantial boost to the upward trend in property values," Powell specified.

The revamp of the migration system might activate a decline in regional property demand, as the new competent visa path gets rid of the requirement for migrants to live in local locations for 2 to 3 years upon arrival. As a result, an even larger percentage of migrants are likely to converge on cities in pursuit of superior employment opportunities, subsequently decreasing need in local markets, according to Powell.

According to her, far-flung areas adjacent to city centers would retain their appeal for individuals who can no longer afford to live in the city, and would likely experience a surge in popularity as a result.
