RESIDENTIAL RESEARCH A REVIEW OF KEY RESIDENTIAL INDICATORS ACROSS MAJOR AUSTRALIAN CITIES

Aug-17 Feb-18 Aug-18 Economic growth was recorded at 3.1 growth in March 2018. Unemployment across Australia was 5.4 in the June 2018 quarter. The official cash rate target remained unchanged at 1.5 on 8 August 2018. In June 2018 housing finance annual growth fell 0.4. Annual growth for residential building approvals was up 3.6 in June 2018. Australian house values were down 1. in the year ending June 2018 (falling 1. in the last quarter) to $802,000. Apartment values were down 2.2 over the year ending June 2018 (falling 0.4 in the last quarter) to $554,500 (excl. Greater Darwin). In the year ending June 2018, the volume of house sales across Australia fell 8.1 to 317,907; whilst 96,094 apartment sales were recorded (falling by 14.2). rental yields for Australian houses were stable in Q2 2018 averaging 4.2; whilst apartments were down 10 bps to average 4.3. Australian house rents rose 1.3 to $400 per week in the year ending June 2018; whilst apartment rents rose 5. to $420 per week. Australian cities remain some of the most liveable in the world according t o The Economist Intelligence Unit s Global Liveability Index in 2018. Four of Australia s capital cities ranked in the top 12 out the 140 cities. The index saw Melbourne rank the highest in Australia in 2nd place, performing 0.9 p oints better (at 98.4) than in 2017, despite being d isplaced by Vienna after seven consecut ive years in the top spot. Sydney moved up to 5th place, from 11th, with a score of 97.4. Adelaide (10th place) and Perth (12th) saw their score remain the same, although this year many global cities have seen improvements in their ranking due to increas ing stability. Brisbane s score was slightly elevated at 94.3; ranking in 22nd p osition. For house and apartment price growth, Hobart continued to be the best performing capital city, followed by houses in Canberra and Adelaide. With an established risk-adverse lending environment, overall capital values fell this quarter in Australia. This was dominated by the cooling Sydney and Melbourne markets, following doub ledigit growth in recent years. Given b oth cities have strong economies and significant populat ion growth, it s likely by the end of 2019, most new stock will be absorbed and price growth will return.
