Adelaide Housing Market Update: Home prices are rising, and the RBA is giving home buyers a short-term reprieve.

By Rishabh Dhall

6th April, 2023

The most recent PropTrack Home Price Index reveals that property values increased in most capital cities last month, with a shortage of available properties for sale offsetting the impact of significant interest rate hikes.

PropTrack senior economist Eleanor Creagh, “Despite lower buyer demand than peak levels, softness in new listing numbers and restricted supply has offset this”. She said.

That shows increased competition among interested buyers, which has boosted housing values.

And if we talk about the rental market in Adelaide, it has increased by more than 4% in the first three months of the year, which is double the rate of inflation nationwide.

The median advertised rent for an Adelaide home has risen to $470 per week, according to the most recent Prop Track data, after increasing by 4.4% in the first quarter of 2023.

Australian RBA Cash rates have been put on hold, giving home buyers a short-term excuse, by holding official rates steady at 3.60% for the first time in the year. As per the RBA Governor Philip Lowe, “The decision to hold the interest rates steady this month provides the board with more time to assess the state of the economy and the outlook”.

This would reflect in home prices stabilising further. Eventually, it will help reduce the hesitation that kept the buyers sitting on the fence.

If you are in the market to buy property, keep these three points in mind.

1. What is the best and lowest price you can get for the property?

2. What could be the real price you are willing and comfortable paying?

3. What is your hard-stop price as a final offer?

Four things to know for this 2022 spring selling season

By Rishabh Dhall

7th October, 2022

As per the report from CoreLogic, spring 2022 is expected to hit a little differently, we’ve compiled four key trends for you to be across this spring selling season.

It won’t be the spring selling season we experienced last year.

There is no denying that Market conditions are very different. Buyer appetite is falling against higher interest rates, and properties are taking longer to sell, but keep this in mind, whatever the condition of the market will be, there always be sellers who want to sell and always be buyers, who want to buy, it just right now, the frequency of both sides is low.

New listings and auction will rise in the coming weeks.

Despite we have been experiencing new listings counts still lower, some data points indicate a lift is on its way in the next few weeks. We have seen a new confidence in sellers to get their property right in the market with a little rise in buyers’ activity as well.

Long term owner – occupiers are more likely to sell.

Recent buyers are at more risk of making a nominal loss if they sell during this turnaround. Meanwhile, even if the market is going through a short term, those who have held their property over the period of 5 – 10 years are more likely to make nominal gains, We have seen an increase in those as well.

Sellers will have to tweak their strategy & listen to buyers feedbacks and be flexible on their approach.

Serious vendors will need to be realistic about their price expectations backed up by quality marketing campaign and excellent negotiation by agent. As the cash rate is expected to rise further in the coming months, borrowers may become more constrained.

0.9% decline in the Adelaide property market. Buyers and Sellers need to get the right opportunity.

By Rishabh Dhall

16th September, 2022

CoreLogic’s home value index slumped 1.6 % in Australia in August, with a 0.9% decline in the Adelaide property market.


Now we know that RBA has increased the cash by adding 0.50% totalling 2.35%. Giving more buyers a hard time getting into the property market.

As per the new report, there has been slightly decline in the demand of new housing loans, which are reflecting to decrease in Adelaide property prices.

But looking at the current scenario, the declination of the prices would require a serious bubble burst which has been created over the past few years. To get back to June 2020 condition the country would need to go at least 18% lower than they are now.

By Looking at the current market:

IF YOU ARE SELLER.

You need to act fast, it’s good that you are a homeowner, but if you are thinking of selling you need to take advantage of the market right now, as the prices will going to shed a little bit over 12 months. This is the time to reap the offerings that the market is providing. As current interest rates are still bearable by many active buyers.

IF YOU ARE BUYER.

On average, buyers tend to spend at least 7 months in the market to get the right property after gaining approval and viewing over 100red properties before making any decision.

If you are into this category – it shows you are not filtering enough and not shortlisting the criteria that you are looking into the property. Resulting missing out on the right opportunities as you have taken a long time to secure a house.

And most importantly communication is the key, not asking the right questions to an agent will result in various conditional offers or pushing a contract that doesn’t go well with seller’s time frame.

Adelaide has been experiencing a 1.3% increase in the quarterly sales prices for houses

By Rishabh Dhall

26th August, 2022

Australia is coming strapping with 17 out of 25 housing market basis comes strong.

Spring is at the corner, and surely it will be a good time for the property market and will contribute a genuine factor pointing towards a strong recovery this spring.

Amongst all capital, Adelaide has been showing very well in terms of property prices. Adelaide has continued to increase by 0.4% in August despite the RBA’s tightening of monetary policy.

Adelaide has been experiencing a 1.3% increase in the quarterly sales prices for houses and there would be more property coming up in the market as the Spring season hits. As per the current report, the new listing will reach its peak in November which will eventually bring more confidence in buyers and sellers to Adelaide real estate market as the advertising stock rises.

The rental market is coming strong with investors cashing up their chips and getting great rental yield in the current market and will experience more hikes in prices as the number of migrants increases.

It clearly shows there is minimal stock in the Adelaide property market which enables competition, but still outperforms compared to other states.

Many buyers are holding off and waiting to get a better deal in the market, but this would not be a great strategy.

If you’re a smart buyer and you’re ready to buy, why wouldn’t you buy now when there’s very little competition? If you can find the right property, go for it.

Adelaide’s hot property market is going in a different direction altogether.

By Rishabh Dhall

5th August, 2022

Australian real estate: There could be a drop in house prices in Australia by 15% in the next 18 months, but Adelaide’s hot property market is going in a different direction altogether.

As we know winter for the real estate market is a slow period where activity usually shifts to a lower gear. But this is not the case in Adelaide as per the report there is a 1.2 % increase in listing as compared to the same time last year.

More new listings are hitting the market but for prospective buyers, the conditions remain tough.

Now RBA has lifted the cash rate by another 50 basis points making 1.85%. Now the bank is predicting a series of 25 basis points over the next quarter rounding off to 2.10% by the end of this year.

As we are seeing many buyers from interstate and investors are more inclined towards the Adelaide market to take advantage of the current market conditions before it gets tough.

Now when you are thinking of selling, you must be thinking about what buyers look for, and I have so much to say about this as I have meeting lots of prospective buyers during the open house. So, let’s address those.

We should not avoid the fact that Adelaide’s house prices are catching up with Sydney and Melbourne, even when the Median price of Adelaide is still lower compared to big cities.
Resulting in more buyers lured towards the Adelaide housing market for affordability and ease in cost of living.

This is the best time for buyers to not be complacent and continue their search for their dream home.

Surely, homebuyers were now keen on saving rather than splurging. 

  1. Buyers are looking for houses that offered a guaranteed rental income, like DHA and NDIS scheme offers.

  2. The rising cost of living and increase in interest rates seems to have got buyers leaning towards ‘duplex’ or semi-detached homes with a preference for the ‘ground floor.

Prices are going down; it sounds amazing, right?

8th July, 2022

Prices are going down; it sounds amazing, right?
And for the people who are looking to enter the market, it will be dream come true situation but behind this plunging price, there are hidden certainties that could bite many Australians.

Right now, this turning point of the market, where interest rates are rising, making mortgage repayments more expensive.

As per the current situation, you could expect a $230 addon to your monthly repayment on the loan of $800K.

Now, for first home buyers,

It will be a hard decision by looking at the current dynamics of the market and it will be a trade-off between lower prices but increasing mortgage costs compared to likely further rises in the cost of renting.

Another Shocking card has been dropped by RBA, bringing the official cash rate target to 1.35 percent. There could be more fall in Adelaide house prices as the interest rate rises.

I think, by October and November come around, people will get used to the market situations and that will be the new norm.

Now, let’s talk about how you can benefit from selling your property for a good price?

It comes down to displaying it in an “immaculate condition” and having a successful marketing strategy.

If you present your property well, have the right real estate agent with you and are all ready to sell, it will still sell at the best price you are looking forward to.

Seriously, you need to see the market and step in. The person who is ready to offer 900K now might be able to pay 800K in a month. So, you know where we are going now.

RBA’s 1.35% cash rate increase: what does it mean for Adelaide’s real estate market?

By Rishabh Dhall

5th July, 2022

If you’re wondering how the 1.35% cash rate increase by the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) will affect Adelaide’s real estate market, then look no further than this article! With so many changes to the property market, it’s hard to know what they mean and where you should be putting your money when it comes to buying real estate in Adelaide.

The latest interest rate change

According to reports, the CommBank has predicted that house prices will drop by 15 percent over the next 18 months. This unexpected rise has shaken the market and buyers’ dream to own their desired home would get hit as far as a mortgage payment is concerned. There’s no doubt that an RBA interest rate change will have a large effect on Adelaide’s property market.

Changes to your mortgage repayments, if you are at the current loan repayment stage

The other point worth bearing in mind is that while the changes are designed to make people think more carefully about getting into debt. This sudden rate rise will no doubt add $146 a month on a loan of 500,000 respectively $293 a month on a loan worth $1 million. 

Let’s Think?

If the buyers sit and cherry-picked the market and delay their decisions, it will be repassed by the bank again, now the chances would be less to borrow more money again. Now before more interest rates & inflation kick in, eventually decreasing your chances to borrow & spending potential. If you can afford to wait, you can go ahead with the decision but if something comes up and suits your desire, buy it straight away.

Let’s face it
Buying or selling under pressure conditions means you will not be having time to make smart decisions. It would be better to buy or sell the house now!

Will Adelaide’s Property Prices Take a U-Turn?

By Rishabh Dhall

20th May, 2022

Property values in the South Australian capital of Adelaide are rising quickly, while this news would make any property owner’s heart skip a beat, it also raises questions about how long these price rises will continue.  Nationally Adelaide is leading in property prices. Now the question is will Adelaide’s property prices take a U-turn?

What does the future hold for property prices in Adelaide?

For now, there has been speculation about an impending cooling in Adelaide’s property market. New data from ANZ Bank indicates that values have risen by 1.9 percent over the month of April. What we can see, although prices remain high when compared to 12 months ago but the market is loosing its growth momentum. What we can see now buyers in the Adelaide property market are taking cautious steps and taking time to buy an ultimate desirable home in South Australia.

Should you still buy now while interest rates are low (and will it go up eventually)?

The Reserve Bank’s decision to increase the cash rate by 0.25 percent earlier in May was met with great anticipation of its effect on property prices. ANZ’s predicted 11 percent decline by the end of next year caused many people to reconsider whether now is still the right time to buy into an already expensive market – even with interest rates at their lowest levels ever and expected to rise “sometime soon”. If you look at the Adelaide property market, there is something else about it. Property value in Adelaide and Houses for sale in Adelaide are rising and at the same time, rental properties in Adelaide are under a microscope.

Conclusion. Maybe I shouldn't buy after all... yet... but here's why I still think it could be worth taking the plunge.

By looking at the figures, the rise in interest rates could have detrimental effects on the housing market. I’m not saying it’s going to crash, but market will go under correction phase. 

For now, if you’re looking to sell your home in 2022 or 2023, you still have a chance to secure good profits as the buyers in the market are still actively looking and ready to put their offers. Overall, prices still seem like they could be rising—the big question is when and how long will these rises last?

Truly Unprecedented: Adelaide’s House Price Boom Shows No Signs of Slowing, but a Rate Hike Could Shock the Market

By Rishabh Dhall

6th May, 2022

How long will this truly unprecedented house price boom last? With interest rates starting to show their true colours, many South Australian are wondering will it be a positive outlook for the Australian property market. It could be a shock that the Adelaide housing market can see downtime in terms of affordability.

Key takeaways...

While recent RBA decisions to increase interest rates haven’t caused property prices to fall across Australia (yet), experts are saying that we could be approaching an inflection point where mortgage rates might make property ownership too expensive for many Australians. In South Australia, these concerns seem particularly relevant—with mortgage rates currently at their lowest level in decades. Potential buyers should keep an eye on rate increases and factor any potential changes into their decision-making process.

The basics....

If you’re thinking about selling your house, now may be a good time to do it. Real estate in Adelaide has been going through an unprecedented boom—but any bubble can burst. If you’re expecting to sell your house at significantly more than you bought it take advantage of the situation now.

What does this mean for buyers?

While increasing sales are good news for sellers, it could mean that buyers will have to wait in long lines for popular properties. Adelaide property market prices continue to skyrocket despite lending standards becoming tougher in recent years. Recent months have seen vendors commanding high asking prices and achieving quick sales which may be contributing to increased levels of competition between buyers.

The biggest trend we’re seeing in the property market is buyers with specific price points, not just properties. This year, more than ever before, we’re seeing buyers who are looking for specific styles of property (for example, a modern kitchen or open plan living). Overwhelmingly (pun intended), buyers also want to find a property that meets their needs—or can be easily transformed into what they need it to be.

By looking at the market, I can certainly say, the property market will provide greater benefits for sellers as this is the right time to come into the market till the market gets mature.

More people than ever want to sell property in Adelaide Now

The reason more people are selling properties in Adelaide is that prices are achievable. The average house price has soared to $515,000 in 2022—almost double what it was just three years ago, meaning that, while selling conditions look set to remain strong. The sellers are getting more prices for their homes in Adelaide. As the Interest rates are likely to rise later this year, which may start to cool buyer appetite.

How to kick start your property investment journey in Adelaide?

Investing in property can be extremely lucrative, but it’s also incredibly daunting to start with – there are so many things to consider, such as the type of investment you should make and whether your financial situation is suitable to deal with these sorts of decisions. But don’t worry, if you’re getting into the property market for the first time, this guide will walk you through all these considerations and more, so that you know what to do when you’re ready to go through with your investment in Adelaide property.

Where to Start

There are so many avenues and opportunities out there that it can be difficult to know where to start. So, we’ve prepared a little handy guide on what you should do if you’re thinking of getting into property investment and hope that it helps. But remember, there is no one right way.

How much can I afford? And how much will it cost me? A great place to start your planning process is by working out exactly how much money you have available for investments, as well as spending and lifestyle costs.

What Are Capital Gains Tax, Depreciation, Income Tax, and Division 7A?

While income tax generally refers to tax paid on an annual basis, capital gains tax (CGT) refers to any profit earned from selling your assets – including property. But what is CGT? And how does it work? In Australia, CGT applies once you have owned and used an asset for a minimum of 12 months. When you sell that asset at a higher price than when you purchased it, you pay tax. Before we begin discussing CGT in more detail, let’s first consider two other important terms: depreciation and Division 7A. Division 7A allows taxpayers who use the property as their business or trade to claim deductions for ‘expenses’ associated with owning or running that business or trade.

Should I Buy or Lease My Property?

When buying a property, there are three main ways of financing it. You can finance it through a loan from your bank (using savings or by taking out a mortgage), you can use the equity in other assets you own, or you can try and buy for less than what it’s worth – known as ‘buy low, sell high’. This third option is called equity sharing. Think of it as getting someone else to share any potential increases in property value with you.

Tips For Finding A Good Rental Home/Investment Property

Finding a good rental property takes a bit of time and patience. Once you know what kind of properties you’re looking for, it’s time to get looking for them! Set aside at least an hour or two every weekend to drive around your desired neighbourhood. If a house looks nice from the outside but doesn’t have any indoor amenities such as heating or air conditioning, don’t rent it!

Risks And Rewards of Investing in Real Estate

There are several risks involved when investing in real estate. The biggest one is simply location: Is it a good area for investment? It’s important to look at these risks and weigh them against your goals. Are you looking for something that will let you $5,000 a year (or more) on average? In that case, market risk won’t matter as much as you think—if it’s not a complete disaster.

What does this mean for sellers?

With no lockdowns on the immediate horizon, selling conditions are likely to remain strong over the next few months. The increase in listings can be attributed to the fact that homeowners are very keen to sell given the price growth.

Why are we seeing an increase?

The Adelaide property market is seeing an increase in sales due to a number of reasons. First, there are a lot of interstate buyers who have already purchased and relocated, and they’re coming back to Adelaide to purchase another home as an investment while they live at their overseas residence.

Adelaide housing market update: In 2022, Adelaide is booming

Where should you live?

This question can be tricky because it’s very specific to you and your needs. Factors like commute time, proximity to family or friends, safety and convenience should all factor into your decision. No two markets are exactly alike—looking at rental rates will give you a good idea of how tight supply is in your neighbourhood compared to others.

Prices continue to rise through the first half of 2022 but at a slow pace.

Expected property price growth to moderate in the first half of next year, but 2023 would see a drop and the house prices would drop by 10 percent over 2023 as the RBA takes the cash rate to 1.25 by the third quarter of that year. The current official cash rate is 0.10 percent.

CBA’s head of Australian economics

As we can see the market is slowing down, but the growth rate is still above average.

We would also see what affects the market and why the market is slowing down at the pace of growth.

  1. Over the recent months, we have seen that the market is losing its strength on the factors that have been doing great in increasing the housing value.
  2. Fixed mortgage rates are going up, and the higher listing is taking some urgency away from the buyers.
  3. Surely, credits are less available, and affordability has become a concern and a more substantial barrier to entry.

There is no denying that the stock level is rising at a faster rate, and buyers are also getting confidence towards the purchasing of the property.

We will see more listing coming on the way and continue to rise, which would eventually slow down the capital growth.

The prices which were touching the roof have finally triggered alarm to many financial institutions like RBA, CBA, and ANZ.  We can expect more constraints which will stabilize the market and will prevent financial threats.

Now the question is How much could borrowers save on their home loans when interest rates rise by making extra repayments now?

To learn more about this, attached is the case study, that will give you an idea of the same.

Vendors are seen as the biggest winners in the Adelaide real estate market.

Adelaide has shown the record-breaking median house price with 13.82% YoY and about 3.7% increase from the previous quarter.

Adelaide real estate continue to be a momentous consideration for many homebuyers and investors looking to buy houses in Adelaide.

This is the time to take advantage as you will not find the same market moving forward in the new year.

High rental yield and strong capital growth is what is dragging potential buyers and investors to put their bucks on Adelaide real estate market.

But as we move forward, we can expect the affordability constraints will start to bite. Especially with the First Home Buyers.

According to ANZ, “the double-digit gains in house prices over the past year won’t be repeated in 2022, with recent weakness in housing finance suggesting price growth will continue to ease over coming months after peaking in March.

Home loan interest rates in Adelaide is currently at 0.1 % and it’s expected that the RBA “hold” this until the first half of 2023.

However, fixed interest rates are already rising.

A faster than expected rise in the interest rates will increases the risk and the prices slow more than we currently expect.

For example, you submit for a home loan with an interest rate of 2.5 %, the bank will assess if you can able to make repayments if the interest rate rises to 5.5 % rather than the previous serviceability notion of 5 %.

So, the home loan borrowing power for the average borrower will reduce by around 5 %.

You can only buy property once, mistakes will cost you a lot, even can change the pattern of the monetary path you are already on, you can end paying for one single mistake for many years to come. So, you must look at your affordability and align your goals accordingly

The dream of many Aussies is gradually going out of reach because of sky-high property prices.

House prices have become so unaffordable that more and more first home buyers are being locked out of the market.

Huge thanks to Daniel for shedding some of his expertise and knowledge and providing us an outlook in our last episode of What expert thinks- if you missed out check the link : https://fb.watch/9iJS-1nKJX/

Earlier this year, low-interest rates, the fear of missing out (FOMO) accompanied by low supply drove prices in every Australian capital city to an extent which we haven’t seen in the past 8 years.

According to Reserve Bank of Australia Governor, “Philip Lowe on Tuesday ruled out an increase in mortgage interest rates in 2021 but opened the door for a hike sooner than the timeline it had set of not before 2024”.

I would say a few things will change the outlook of the real estate market in Adelaide and will bring the positive aspect toward the property sales in Adelaide.

1) Opening of the borders.

2) Return of immigrants may provide a source of support at some point,

Combining these factors with the subtle tightening of credit assessments set for

November 1, we can see that the prices will get stabilise as the market moves forward and getting the ‘dream’ property for First Home Buyers will be achievable.

Now, few sellers are holding off on listing their property for sale as they are scared that it would be difficult for them to move to the next one as the supply in the current real estate market is very low.

As the market gets balanced out in the coming months, we could expect more sellers will feel confident in listing their homes for sale.

It’s very simple – More listings mean more choices for buyers and less stress on their purchasing decisions.

2021 Has Delivered Unbelievable Growth Across Australian Real Estate Market

That made me think….

 Is it the right time to take advantage of current selling conditions so that you can move into the next phase of your life?

 Or should you wait and see if prices continue to increase?

 That leads to another question….

 Will it be more expensive to purchase your next property?

Let’s explore the current real estate ambiance and what could be the pros and cons of waiting versus selling now and what the real estate market will provide us till the first quarter of 2022.

For sure affordability is a big one. Many buyers have faced this year’s double-digit gains.

It’s expected that the Fear Of Missing Out (FOMO) seen in 2021 will be cooled off by prices reaching unattainable levels.

Let’s address some question which has been unanswered for a while.

What do you think about the current real estate market in Adelaide? and what could be the scope of property market for the year 2020?

I feel that the market is very hot now with some buyers being priced out of the market. Good time to sell and a hard time to buy. I could see trends of property prices increasing in 2022– however, as of today, the 1st of October lenders are increasing their sensitivity rate which for the consumer sees borrowing capacities reduce. Fixed rates have also been increased with some of the major lenders – which could indicate perhaps the property market easing up a bit.

What challenges do buyers face in real estate transactions nowadays?

In today’s market, we are seeing more and more clients wanting pre-approvals. This is due to a lot of properties going to auction now. In a market as hot as it is currently, we can on occasion see an issue with a client purchasing a property over and above the bank’s valuation figure and needing to come up with extra funds at short notice to ensure the purchase goes through, and they don’t lose their deposit!

What could be the possible reason that can hinder the chances of home Loan pre-approval?

Getting the right advice is key to getting approval – Organise a pre-approval, understand fixed and variable interest rates and how they can work to your advantage, deposit requirements, and borrowing capacity. It is important that whoever is assisting with your lending requirements understands your goals to give you the right advice.

Adelaide Property Market growth has been very consistent over the past six months.

As vaccines are on the move and thresholds are reaching, we can hear more about the re-opening of the international borders from the next month.

We can also see the opportunity that our real estate market in Adelaide is providing with driving at a faster annual pace since 1989.

Property value in the Adelaide property market has climbed almost 20% in the past year. Crazy demand and limited stock are the only factors making the prices in the Adelaide property market to the roof.
Having 1.9% growth just in September with the median price of $529,376, we can certainly say that price is unstoppable in every region of South Australia, especially in Adelaide metropolitan.

We can say the growth has been very consistent over the past six months.

It was surely evident in March, where the national property prices increased almost as close to 2.8%, from there the growth condition were positive.

Having an increased price in the home dwelling will soothing the seller side of the market but this rise is affecting some segments of the market, especially first home buyers due to the low level of existing stock which is not enough for hungry buyers. This increase in house value faster than the household income has become more challenging for the market.

As the competition level in the market is already getting heated up and the property available for sales is limited but the increasing demand from interstate is keeping the market red hot.

Normally what happens is people come here, do their education, and then move over overseas, but now they have no plan to move as they want to stay over here, want to enjoy all the benefits and commendable efforts towards COVID-19 situation in this third most liveable city in the world.

Nowadays, properties that were making $550,000 are making $620,000. And the properties that were made between 1.3m and 1.5m are now making 1.7m to 1.9m.

By looking at the overall conditions I truly say this will be the best summer ever.

Short real estate campaigns, slow supply, and interstate interest are keeping real estate prices up in Adelaide.

Property sales across South Australia in the past year are up almost 40 % on the previous year despite severely low listings.

2/3rd of Adelaide properties is already growing more than 10 percent this year as the spices are continues to spike despite the low on listing.

Australia property market rose to 18.4% in the August, by looking at this figure we can say, this is the highest annual appreciation since July 1989.

Multiple reasons show the sales has jumped despite the numbers of listing in the market remains low.

  • Investor who has the property for a long period of time, are thinking to sell instead of continuing to invest.
  • People who were thinking of selling this year or in the 2022, they are also active and looking for the right opportunity in short are playing around.
  • Then you get maximum number of people saying, “hey! If I get the right price for the property, I will sell it”.

In short, it is very simple to understand, there are properties lying dormant in the market and are not coming out to feed the hunger od the buyers.

According to CoreLogic, “Since then credit policies have loosened and mortgage rates have reduced to record lows, encouraging more Australians to participate in the housing market”.

“For now, few people are losing out because of skyrocketing prices in virtually every part of the country. Younger Australians are facing conditions that “make it harder to enter into the housing market”. He added.

Would encourage sellers to be in the market as this is the right time to take advantage and feed the hunger of buyers. Get the maximum out of your assets and align your future needs.

Spring will be the perfect injection to cure Adelaide’s hot property market

Supply boost in Adelaide will be a huge relief for the hot property market this spring season.

According to CoreLogic figures, “released last week show the median house price in Australia increased by 18.4 percent in the 12 months to September 1, the fastest pace of growth since 1989”.

The hunger for the property in Adelaide is not holding up back as we can see 1 in 10 homes are coming as a new listing which is a growing concern for the Adelaide property market.

Normally, the spring season is the best for the vendors to come into the market to enjoy the benefits of the seller’s market. Hopefully, we will experience the same volumes of listing coming up this spring 2021.

Not only it will bring more joy among buyers and agents, but it will also reduce the affordability concern by injecting the right number of properties in the Adelaide property market.

living room - onyx realtors

The three indicators that buyers should be looking this spring season are:

1) Price

They should know about how the prices are moving and fetch the right time moment to get your own home. Get ready with your mortgage capacity and timing the market is very important.

2) Listing

A very important indicator to understand as is how much stock is available in the market and what listing to choose on and should be smart enough to beat the competitions.

3) Days on site

Be actively present in the market and look at how quickly is the market is moving i.e., buying and selling. This will give you a good indication and the level of competition in the market.

There could be a Burst of activity this spring season as the vendor will gain confidence by looking at the current situation of the market.

What’s Causing the Rising Home Prices?

1. Continuing low mortgage rates

2. Economic recovery

3. Optimism, fear of missing out, euphoria

4. Australia’s excellent response to Covid 19 transmission

5. Business reopening well, increasing optimism for the economy

6. Fewer homes for sale

7. First-time home buyers were coming back.

Adelaide property values continued to climb in August

CoreLogic’s latest home value index shows Adelaide dwelling values rose 1.9 percent in August to a median of $522,180 – slightly up on the 1.7 percent recorded in July.

What we can see right now is the strong demand continues to rise prices up and excellent management by the state government to tackle Covid-19 is increasing the confidence among the homeowners to sell their home.

As the employment levels are leveling up and interest rates remain low, this is still fuelling the demand.

We have been asking homeowners is the right time to come into the market? as they can see the market is strong and demand is also surging up.

Last weekend we had 80 registered buyers for our property, we have already secured offers and working on it.

We can certainly say that the prices in Adelaide will continue to increase during the spring season as more and more properties hit the market.

An increase in August takes Adelaide property values 12.8 percent higher than the last eight months of 2021 and 17.9 above as compare to the same time last year.

Property in Adelaide has traditionally lower than the larger capitals, due to recent changes in the property prices and injection of government stimulus packages has increased the interest by interstate and outside investors, including those in the COVID-19, ravaged eastern states.

According to Tim Lawless, “said the slowing rate of growth likely had more to do with worsening affordability constraints than ongoing lockdowns in many states”.

During the open, I have experienced so many buyers, who cannot put their interest in the properties as the property’s prices are going out of their hands and few are active since the start of 2021 but still couldn’t be able to get their home.

South Australia property outlook for the rest of 2021 and beyond?

Australia is facing several lockdowns, even our real estate market is also experiencing the same and this is the common question that everyone is asking.


We are determined to bring the latest real estate news to Adelaide.

Are the property prices rising in Australia?

However, the property prices have no intention to slow down despite the sequence of lockdowns.

Australia is facing double-digit growth this year, even the growth rate of property prices is slowing, but property prices are kept on rising in almost every state around the country. But now it is showing ease in momentum since peaking march.

Due to uncertainty of the effect of lockdown, the sellers are holding back their properties and hesitant to put their property in the market for sale despite the strong selling conditions.

Here’s what Westpac believes will happen to property values.

Here as you can see, they are predicting a rise of 12 to 14 % this year and it will reduce to 6-8% in the following years as the housing market will get oversupply due to closed borders and stagnant population growth. And that would be a thew time where sellers have no choice rather than reduce the selling price as the market will enter buyer’s market.

What is the property market doing in Adelaide?

If you see the best performing market in Adelaide, the top tier 25% of the market enjoys a 6.8% increase in the home values, and the middle 50% enjoy 4.8% and the lowest 25% enjoy a 3.5% rise in home value.

According to Chief Australia economist for BIS Oxford Economics Dr. Hunter said, “Households have built-up significant excess savings, and the preference towards detached houses has continued. Coupled with this, the supply of properties to the market remains relatively low, resulting in demand outstripping supply.”

Because of the increase in the price and going beyond the reach, many of the first home buyers are facing affordability and losing up in the market.
