Australia’s property market was negatively impacted at the beginning of the pandemic. Millions of Australians lost their jobs or were thrown onto welfare, consumer confidence cratered, property inspections and auctions were stopped, and the 5-City CoreLogic dwelling values index fell between April and October 2020.
However, the subsequent rebound has been utterly spectacular, with all major capitals experiencing strong price growth. Sydney:
Sydney dwelling values initially fell 2.1%, bottoming on 13 October 2020.
Since then, Sydney values have rebounded 9.1% to be 6.7% higher than the pre-COVID level on 15 March 2020.
Melbourne:
Melbourne dwelling values initially fell very sharply, declining 5.9% to 18 October 2020.
Values have since rebounded strongly, rising 7.3% to be 1.0% higher than the pre-COVID level. Get details at: x

Hobart recorded the highest quarterly rise in weekly house rents at 4.3 per cent, followed by Adelaide at 3.7 per cent, Perth at 3.6 per cent and Brisbane at 3.5 per cent. Meanwhile, Sydney, Canberra and Darwin remained stable.
Of all the capital cities, only Melbourne saw house rents decline by 2.3 per cent – making it the second most affordable capital city to rent a house for the first time on record, alongside Perth and behind Adelaide. “For the first time on record, Melbourne is the second most affordable capital city to rent a house, joint with Perth and behind Adelaide,” Domain’s senior research analyst, Dr Nicola Powell, said. But while Melbourne’s vacancies have declined in recent months, they remain 182 per cent higher than last year, according to Dr Powell. This was directly influenced by the reduction of demand as a result of international border closures, more tenants becoming home owners and city residents moving to lifestyle locations.
“Inner Melbourne units have felt the brunt, with rents now at 2010 levels after tumbling by $110 a week annually,” Dr Powell noted. Source: x

CoreLogic’s weekly auction clearance rate across the combined capitals has been at or above 80% just five times since 2008, and four of those were in March 2021. The week ending 28th March 2021 recorded the highest auction clearance rate on record (83.1 per cent), while also being the busiest week for auctions since late March 2018. As regular readers know, the auction clearance rate has historically been a strong leading indicator of price growth across Sydney and Melbourne.

Over the past month, dwelling prices in capital city markets have increased 0.4 per cent compared with 0.3 per cent in regional areas, REA’s latest Insights Home Price Index revealed.
While regional markets dominated buyer interest in 2020, strongly outperforming capital city markets, so far in 2021 capital cities are leading the charge. “Price growth in capital cities has been stronger than in regional markets over the past two months, so it will be interesting to see if this trend continues as vaccines roll out in Australia and we head towards a new COVID-normal,” said Mr Kusher.
“Undoubtedly, the lure of regional Australia with its lower property prices and desirable lifestyle remains strong, but we may see those who intended to make a tree- or sea-change reconsider their regional move as cities reopen.” “Property prices have clearly responded positively to state and federal government housing stimulus along with the lowest borrowing costs on record. The main potential bump in the road to recovery will be what happens as government and banking support is wound down over the coming months,” said Mr Kusher.
According to him, while the share of mortgages on deferral remains low, the removal of JobKeeper and JobSeeker may lead to an increase in forced property sales. Get details at: x
Is the regional trend coming to an end?
The regional trend could be coming to an end as new figures reveal that monthly capital city price growth has outpaced regional price growth for only the second time in 12 months.
