Property prices are set to keep rising in Hobart, experts say, offering no relief from the affordability crisis facing Australia’s southernmost capital city, after rapid rises in recent years.
Locals report a continued influx of mainlanders moving to the Tasmanian capital, but doubt the city’s housing prices will follow the pattern of Australia’s two largest cities and fall back after earlier strong gains.
Instead, prices are tipped to increase even further, albeit at a slower pace.
“Prices are still going up here, but not as spectacularly as they were,” said independent economist Saul Eslake. “My expectation would be for further modest gain, there is no [talk of a] fall back … as there was in Sydney and Melbourne.”
The city’s median house price, at $482,960 last quarter, jumped 35 per cent over the three years to September, Domain data shows. Meanwhile, unit prices increased more than 50 per cent to $395,715. Details inside:x

Although prices look attractive to the many new residents who arrive, strong gains are creating an affordability crisis for locals - and no falls are in sight.
