"I tried calling every daycare in and around Girrawheen area , the only answer I got was, “No new enrollment at the moment”. I am trying to have my 3 year old get started on daycare at least 3 days a week for now and once things get back to normal she will be comfortable going for 5 days a week. This is a new place for her as well and would like to give her some cushion. Any suggestions? Registered family day cares are fine as well, as long as they are caring and she loves to be there. Please advice. Thank you."

Perth's property market clocked its busiest week since 2013 after it recorded over 1,000 sales of dwellings and vacant land in the week ending 21 June, according to the latest market update from the Real Estate Institute of Western Australia (REIWA). Over the week, Perth reported 613 home sales and 412 vacant land sales. Both of these figures are significantly higher than the 52-week average. "The schemes have certainly helped people who were undecided about a house-and-land package make their decision quicker, and we will likely see vacant land transactions remain at higher-than-normal levels until the end of the year when the scheme concludes,"  "These measures, plus the unique features of our extraordinary state position Western Australia to come back better, emerging from the global pandemic faster than other states as an attractive destination for business investment and interstate and international migrants," Source: x Perth clocks robust sales Its property market recorded the highest level of sales activity since 2013, figures show www.yourinvestmentpropertymag.com.au

“The start of the Perth dwelling market recovery comes at an unfortunate time. In early 2020, the Perth dwelling market had four consecutive months of dwelling value increases, which is the longest stretch of capital growth since 2014,”  “Unemployment had fallen from 6.9 per cent to 5.2 per cent, jobs growth was trending higher, population growth had bounced back to the highest level since 2014, housing supply was contained, and state final demand crept above the decade average,” she explained. “But instead of momentum continuing from the trend seen at the start of the year, the onset of COVID-19 places it at the cusp of another downswing. “Perth has less exposure to industry sectors that have been heavily impacted by COVID-19, with 8.6 per cent of the local workforce employed with the accommodation and food services and arts and recreation services sectors, compared with 9.1 per cent nationally.” Read full details at: x Perth recovery takes COVID-19 hit While signs were pointing to the start of a housing market recovery for Perth earlier this year, the knock-on effects of COVID-19 have impacted the west coast city, according to a leading researcher. www.smartpropertyinvestment.com.au

According to data compiled by the Real Estate Institute of Western Australia (REIWA), listings fell by 17 per cent in May to 4,676. “Looking ahead, the median rent per week should remain at least stable until the end of the year, with any increase in rent only allowed on new rental listings. Legislation implemented in the Residential Tenancies (COVID-19 Response) Act 2020, means occupied rentals cannot have a rent increase until October.” Rent prices remain stable in Perth, according to the REIWA, who noted the overall median rent sat at $350 per week during May.  “The top 10 suburbs that saw the biggest increase to median sale price include Ellenbrook, Claremont, Butler, Yokine, Yanchep, Gosnells, Kelmscott, Halls Head, Waikiki and Willetton,” Mr Collins said. “Interestingly, seven of the 10 suburbs had a median sale price under Perth’s median of $475,000 and suggests people are taking advantage of properties in Perth that are priced at the lower end.” Source: x Perth sees rapid drop in available rental stock Available rental stock in Perth is dropping at a rapid rate, with listings falling to their lowest levels since November 2013. www.smartpropertyinvestment.com.au
