Understanding Property Market Booms
Recent trends in Australia’s property market show significant growth, particularly in smaller capital cities like Brisbane, Adelaide, and Perth. These markets have demonstrated remarkable year-on-year growth, with some areas reporting increases of nearly 20% last year alone. For instance, Perth saw some local governments experiencing growth rates as high as 150%. Historically, property markets tend to undergo long periods of stagnation followed by sharp price increases in a short timeframe, suggesting that investors should be mindful of cyclical trends.
