Property prices keep going up

It’s very rare when all capital cities experience property rise in prices and as shown in ABS data for the March quarter, that’s exactly what’s happening!


Yep, your read correctly! March quarter. Only today the ABS released the numbers. Overall the total value of residential dwellings in Australia rose $449.9b to $8,293.2b this quarter.


It was the stronger quarter growth registered since December 2009.


This results were backed up by the high demand associated to the current super low interest rates, support from the government with all the additional incentives what translated into higher consumer confidence.

Australia is facing a significant housing crisis. Rapid population growth, urbanization, and supply chain challenges have led to a shortage of affordable homes. While the government has set ambitious targets, such as building 1.2 million new homes over five years, achieving this requires collective effort from policymakers, developers, and individual investors. Investing in new builds not only offers personal financial benefits but also contributes to alleviating the housing shortage, ensuring future generations have access to quality housing.
