1st January - 29th February 2024
Australian property prices continued to increase in December and into January and are now well above the previous peak in 2021 for both houses and units. While surprising, given the rapid interest rate increases, the growth reflects a combination of continued population growth and limited new housing supply
With supply levels expected to remain limited this year despite some stability in construction costs emerging, sentiment surrounding interest rates being at their peak are likely to lead to continued price growth
Listing volumes ended 2023 aligned with results in 2022; historically, December has subdued results given the holiday season January, historically, also has a slower start to the year, however preliminary data for 2024 is suggesting alignment with prior years While price growth usually results in greater properties coming to market, the mismatch between construction and population has led to sellers being cautious about bringing their home to market
Auction clearance rates did see some decline during the end of 2023, yet remained ahead of 2022 results Auction clearance rate results for January 2024 have shown encouraging results on the Southern Gold Coast, with Ray White Tugun Elanora achieving 100 per cent, ahead of the 2023 rate of 86 per cent Lack of stock, resulting in greater competition at auction despite elevated interest rates, will likely continue to be a feature this year
Bidder activity across the Ray White Group has shown significant improvements in 2024, with the number of active bidders up, with registered bidders also showing increase As listings remain tight, competition to secure homes will likely result in greater bidder activity this year
