Key observations

  • Rental drops hit 1,132 this week, well above the 966 sales drops. NSW rentals dominate with 594 drops, led by inner-Sydney apartment suburbs: Mascot (↓21), St Leonards (↓12), Maroubra (↓11). The median rental drop of 6.5% again outpaced the 5.9% sales median.
  • VIC and NSW are neck and neck on sales drops (283 vs 294), but VIC dominates rises with 70 of 118 national sales rises (59%). Well-priced Victorian homes are still climbing while stale listings get cut hard, pointing to a two-speed market.
  • Deep cuts are hitting at every pace of listing. 18 Aemilia Avenue Seven Hills QLD dropped $770K after holding $2.65M for just 18 days (-29.1%), while stale sellers finally capitulated: 35 Tannock Street Balwyn North dropped $525K after 130 days at the previous price, and 381-383 Mt Alexander Road Ascot Vale dropped $550K after 50 days at $2.40M.
