This is most likely to be attributable to a lack of new stock entering the market. Following past trends and the current state of the property cycle in St Kilda, we would assume that pent up demand and limited supply in the area will cause median prices to increase significantly over the short to medium term with initial signs of the upswing already apparent $240 $260 $280 As the growing trend for smaller households continues we are likely to see an increased demand for one bedroom apartments which are proving more popular amongst the DINKS (double income no kids) demographic and also lone person households which make up nearly half the population of residents in St Kilda. 100 $100, $50, Mar 1999 Sep 1999 Mar 2000 Sep 2000 Mar 2001 Sep 2001 Mar 2002 Sep 2002 Mar 2003 Sep 2003 Mar 2004 Sep 2004 Mar 2005 Sep 2005 Mar 2006 Sep 2006 Mar 2007 Sep 2007 Quarterly Source: RP Data.
