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.
