So what’s likely to happen next? Will the incredible price rises and high demand for properties continue? Or has the market peaked? And if so, what’s the outlook for the months ahead?

In this Elevate podcast, Elite Agent Managing Editor Samantha McLean and Ray White Chief Economist Nerida Conisbee take a deep dive into the current issues impacting real estate and house prices.

Discussing everything from the recent flooding in southeast Queensland and New South Wales right through to interest rates and the impact of a pending federal election, Nerida offers her insight on the trends that will continue in the major markets, along with those that are starting to shift.

Drawing on years of property market analysis, Nerida provides her predictions on the property policies that will be on the table during the upcoming federal election, and recaps the reasons why house prices saw unprecedented gains during 2021.

She also looks at how flood affected markets will fare, what the reopening of international borders means for the property market, and whether the regional shift seen during Covid-19 is likely to continue.

“I think where we will start to see a little bit of a drop off in activity is in those regional areas that are a bit further away – not quite within commuting distance. It will be an interesting year actually for regional areas, but the ones that will continue to see strong demand will be those that are adjoining a big capital city.” – Nerida Conisbee.
