Asking price trends
The ABS released figures showing how the mean or average dwelling price in Australia rose $8,500 in the March 2023 quarter to $896,000, taking the total value of the dwelling stock close to $10 trillion.
Overall, though, asking prices are down from their highs.

...and also in Perth, where asking prices have also now finally eclipsed their 2013/14 highs.
Adelaide asking prices are very close to their highs, but in all other capital cities asking prices are down from their respective peaks.
