The Price Predictor Index is a unique report in real estate investment.   The index analyses sales in every Australian suburb or town. It finds the growth patterns - the places that will soon show price growth. It also finds markets that are going backwards – the ones to avoid.   In this edition of the Price Predictor Index we can see some significant movement across Australia's various markets. MARKETS ARE SHOWING A POST-ELECTION RECOVERY It’s taking time for markets across the nation to recover from the pre-Federal Election freeze. Our Spring survey shows the first signs of revival in Sydney and Melbourne, although suburbs with declining markets still out-number those with rising sales activity. There is also growing evidence of fightback in Perth, while Queensland is showing the greatest strength among the regional markets and has overtaken Regional Victoria and Regional NSW, which have both delivered more subdued results compared to previous surveys. ADELAIDE LEADS BUT FEW HAVE NOTICED In terms of growth momentum, it’s the outstanding market in Australia, but it continues to fly under the radar and remains the nation’s most under-rated market. In the five years Hotspotting has been conducting quarterly surveys of sales activity and price trends, Adelaide has never delivered a poor result. Most cities have had peaks and troughs in that time, but Adelaide just keeps on producing steady markets with consistent demand. PRICES ARE RISING IN OVERLOOKED AREAS There’s considerably more price growth happening across the nation than most people realise. Find out how we rank the nation’s market jurisdictions on price performance (based on the percentage of locations where median prices have risen in the past 12 months). THERE ARE MAJOR CONTRASTS WITHIN LOCAL MARKETS The generalised nature of media reporting of real estate is the curse of real estate consumers. There is constant discussion of "the Australian property market" and whether "Australian house prices" are rising or falling. This ignores the multiple different scenarios playing out in individual markets around Australia at any point in time. It’s extremely rare for all our markets to be trending in the same direction or for all suburbs in a capital city to be displaying the same behaviour. For example this Spring survey provides the following assessment of suburbs across the Brisbane metro area: 21 rising markets, 103 plateau, 58 consistency, 32 declining and 5 danger markets.   GET THE REPORT TO DISCOVER :- - Our 5 Star Growth Markets - Our National Top 50 Supercharged Suburbs - Our National Top 10 Municipalities - Our National Top 50 Consistency Markets - Our State by State analysis Find out more >> https://www.hotspotting.com.au/premium-reports/price-predictor-index-2270.html
