If a property is truly overvalued then it wouldn't sell in any market. So if it sold at a lower price this isn't an indication that prices fell, just that it was overvalued.
 
here are the commbank figures...obviously not enough sales but it does show 10% growth...
if commbank is not big in the area for loans then it can distort the figures...but abs and others often use commbanks loan figures in their stats...

after taking a stake in aussie and now wizard they will probably be the biggest lenders in the future

just food for thought

I notice a heap of affordable places on domain..whioch lists recent sales...however I believe a lot of bottom of the market props have been sold recently in other areas I watch..which brings the median price down....
 
hello,

whats going on with that property then Mr Burns? ROE tells me everything goes up by 10% per annum, and to double in 7-10yrs

is it next to a brothel or something?

thankyou

There are always exceptions to the rule, the market in some areas is effected by one or 2 large sales on very low volumes plus the market is being proped up to some extent by the lower interest rates and Govt bribes, next year will tell the story but if the housing market can survive this I'll be amazed, akin to defying gravity.

The best way is to attend auctions in your area see what properties are actually being sold for as against what they might have got a year ago,.
 
hello,

it is amazing Mr Burns the resilience of property,

why is it taking soo long to hit aussie land, this saga has been going on for about 12mths in US (declining prices)

ah! i know, you dont get popped going to Coles or Westfield Shoppingtown in Aussie land

i know i know i have to what, it's going to be 2009 or 2010 now

thankyou

Struth Robots.

Looks like that info you gave me on St Kilda could be a bit shonky.

In fact Tech's chart says it crashed in 08
 

Yes it is taking longer here, pent up demand, lower interest rates, Govt grants, and still it's falling, imagine what will happen when those factors change plus job losses kick in.

Wont be the same as the US though, probably.
 
hello,

other people must of given me dodgy information, cant be my fault Explod

thankyou

Here's some food for thought.

Australia's population is growing at 1.7% a year (Source: ABS).

At this rate of growth it will take approximately 45 years for our population to double. All those extra people will have to live some where.

So what's it to be?
a) All these extra people will buy houses pushing prices back up again.
b) All these people will be so far priced out of the market it will create boom times for property investors.
c) A little bit of a) and a little bit of b).

All you property bears must concede one point though. At some time houses will turn and start to increase in value again, otherwise all your arguments support a goal of free housing for everyone or zero growth. Neither of which can happen (zero growth short term but not sustainable long term).
