Market update: Prices decline in 9 in 10 suburbs – what happens next?
Property values are falling across Australia, buyer confidence is weakening, and borrowing power is tightening, but could the downturn create new opportunities for investors?
On the latest episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, SPI deputy editor Emilie Lauer is joined by Julian Barnes from Broker Daily to discuss what falling property values mean for investors.
The pair look at the spread of falling values across capital cities, with national values down in 93 per cent of suburbs, alongside shifting demand across price brackets and a rise in private treaty sales.
The conversation then turns to borrowing power, interest rate expectations, and the growing role of non-bank lenders, while weaker buyer confidence and subdued auction activity could create more room for negotiation.
Regional markets have proved more resilient than the capitals, with the discussion highlighting the importance of microeconomic data, due diligence, and understanding local conditions as investors assess what could come next.
