Australia’s housing shortage is critical and requires immediate attention, with forecasts suggesting it will worsen in the future.

My take is that when interest rates start to dip, watch for a wave of better sentiment amongst consumers. And when people start feeling good about things, you better believe housing activity is going to pick up. Late 2024 is the time to keep an eye on for that.

Considering that the expenses involved in producing medium-rise units on the outskirts of the city can surpass the cost of purchasing an existing apartment, many developers are weighing up if its feasibility to initiating a new development.

Property market remains resilient, the median house price in Sydney is expected to rise by 7 to 9 percent, in Brisbane and Adelaide by 7 to 8 percent, and in Perth by 6 to 7 percent.

Building or renovating is costly, and the construction sector faces notable price hikes in materials, especially steel and timber, due to sourcing and shipping challenges.

Seller’s Advocacy Services

Alexandria – Industrial Warehouse

We were engaged in a Sellers Advocacy project representing our long-standing client, assisting them in divesting their industrial warehouse asset in Alexandria. The agent assessments were thoroughly scrutinised, a selling agent was appointed, and the selling strategy was successfully implemented, culminating in a highly successful sale. Our mission was to extract the best performance from the selling agent to guarantee a top result for our client, a goal we successfully achieved.

Buyer’s Agent Services

Caringbah South – House

Tasked by our client, we investigated, advised, and negotiated the purchase of this highly sought-after property in Caringbah South, known for its quiet street, water views, and north-facing backyard. Though habitable, the property was ideal for a knockdown and rebuild, making it a rare find. Our challenge was to secure the property efficiently without attracting numerous buyers. With the client’s approval, we swiftly submitted offers with favourable terms. Despite some competition, our seasoned experience led to the successful acquisition of the property.
