Price movements
Australian house and unit prices continue their upward trend this month, albeit at a slower pace. Both housing types saw a modest 0.2 per cent appreciation. However, the market is exhibiting greater diversity across states and regions, reflecting varying local economic conditions.
July’s CPI results indicate a continued downward trend, approaching the target two to three per cent band, suggesting potential interest rate reductions in 2025. This has boosted optimism and is expected to lead to a busy spring sales period, with preliminary listing authorities showing a sizeable increase.
Over the past year, house prices have risen by 8.6 per cent, bringing the national mean to $890,178. Similarly, unit prices have increased by 6.7 per cent annually, reaching a nationwide mean of $664,466.
