THE AUSTRALIAN MARKET


There were 1,551 homes taken to auction across the combined capitals in the first week of February down from 1,712 over the previous week, although up from this time last year (1,482).


In terms of clearance rates, capital city auction markets continued to show a solid bounce back from the weak results in late 2023, with the preliminary clearance rate rising to 76.2%, the highest since the first week of June last year. The early clearance rate was a step higher relative to last week (73.9%), which revised down to 68.3% once finalised.


Melbourne was host to the largest number of auctions last week, with 618 homes taken to market, returning a preliminary clearance rate of 73.1% (highest since mid-July last year). Sydney wasn’t far behind with 615 auctions, returning an early clearance rate of 80.4%, the highest preliminary result since the week ending October 24, 2021. This time last year, both markets saw slightly fewer homes taken to auction, with 564 auctions held in Melbourne and 601 in Sydney.


Across the smaller capitals, Brisbane recorded the busiest auction week, with 147 homes taken to auction, followed by Adelaide (103), Canberra (60) and Perth (7). Adelaide recorded the highest preliminary clearance rate at 86.2%, followed by Brisbane and Canberra, with early success rates of 71.1% and 61.2% respectively. In Perth, three of the four auction results collected so far were positive, while the one auction held in Tasmania was successful.

SELLERS and BUYERS ADVOCACY

We believe that this creates a window of opportunity to get into the property market as the Sydney market picks up again. Sydney has shown signs that the bottom of the market downturn has been reached, following several month-on-month increases in median property prices.

There are approx. 5 million people in Sydney, by 2050 it is estimated that Sydney will have 8 million people and NSW will have 10 million inhabitants.

We believe that Sydney has a unique lifestyle compared to other major cities around the world and that the economic benefits will attract overseas migrants from across the globe, as well as high paid jobs.

There are approx. 5 million people in Sydney, by 2050 it is estimated that Sydney will have 8 million people and NSW will have 10 million inhabitants.

At Kincade International Realty we would recommend that rather than trying to time the market for your next property purchase, based on where we are in the current property cycle. We would suggest taking a longer view. If your income is currently secure and the time to purchase is right for you, this may be an ideal time to invest in the Sydney property market.

International perspective:

According to the Real estate portal, realestate.com.au they reported the highest level of search activity from overseas ever in the March 2023 quarter, led by New Zealand, the United States, the United Kingdom, and China. Many of the foreign buyers are looking for properties $4M and above. The end of COVID-19 restrictions in China in late 2022 is a key reason for the recent increase in international buyers, as China remains one of Australia’s biggest source countries for migration.
