Victoria moving to 'Stage Two' measures
Virus cases in single digits
A significant day for Victoria, with just 5 newly confirmed cases of COVID-19, only 1 of which came from an unknown source.
Restrictions eased
Attention is now turning towards the easing of restrictions, with an estimated 127,000 workers now able to return to work in Victoria under the newly-implemented 'Stage Two' measures.
The 9am to 5pm curfew will now be lifted, but in order to proceed to 'Stage Three' measures, the average for new cases will have to remain at under 5 for a sustained 14-day period.
In Victoria it's now become possible for realtors to schedule private inspections again.
Stock listing levels in Melbourne are understandably very low, so it's reasonable to expect there to be a rush of activity over the coming weeks.
According to CoreLogic's index, Melbourne home values have declined by about 6 per cent since peaking in the early part of April.

Wednesday webinar with Jess Ellam: Adelaide property update
Adelaide/SA set for lift off?
I'm excited to be joined by top Adelaide buyer's advocate Jess Ellam from Jess Ellam Property for this week's Wednesday webinar.
We'll be discussing the Adelaide and South Australian property market risks...
...and, of course, the opportunities, including where and what Jess is buying for her clients right now...
...and where it has now become cheaper to buy than rent.
For the capital cities this has tended to be a positive indicator for housing market activity and supportive of prices historically.
We'll ask be discussing what Jess recommends her clients to buy across various budgets and price ranges.
