With Australia’s capital cities are back on the path to growth – Big Cities are Back!
With the “Covid Exodus” to the regions well and truly over, population growth in Australia is now expected to be centred around the capital cities.
As a result, quality rental properties will be in high demand with forecasts suggesting that by 2026, almost 80% of precincts will have a vacancy rate below 1.5%.
While Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane will continue to lead the way in terms of population growth and demand for housing, smaller capital cities like Perth and Adelaide are also expected to see an increase in demand.
Choosing the right location is only half the battle. Investors must select their property developers carefully too. Those with a track record of delivering quality homes on time and within budget are likely to be the most successful. Otherwise, the cost of delays and defects can quickly erode profits.
It looks like 2024 will be the year when Australia’s housing market starts to boom. This means now is the time for investors to carefully consider their options and select properties primed for growth. With such favourable conditions in place, it’s an exciting time for those looking to create wealth through real estate!
