Perth housing market cyclical boom

Perth boom

Low content output this week as I've been at an event on the Gold Coast!

CoreLogic released its monthly housing market report, which showed (or confirmed) what everyone already knew, that Perth's housing market is continuing to absolutely tee off.

I'm actually heading over to Perth next week for the first time in some years, so it'll be interesting to see first hand how things have changed out on the west coast.

Perth prices were up around +6 per cent over the quarter, with Adelaide (+3.3 per cent) and Brisbane (+3.1 per cent) also continuing to record strong price growth. 

Over the past three months, of the 8 capital cities only Melbourne has not recorded nominal price growth.

Generally the price growth has been recorded across the lower price points of the market of late, as tighter borrowing capacities are biting. 

Rents have been rising faster than prices since November, according to CoreLogic, and rents rose around +2.7 per cent over the quarter, again led by Perth (+3.9 per cent).
