A four -digit rebound in the average price of Melbourne’s house could be a mixed bag for buyers as competition increases in auctions and some properties become less affordable.
Proptrack expects 460 Victorian houses to stay under the hammer this week before the King’s birthday holiday.
A Proptrack report showed this week that the typical value of Melbourne’s house increased by almost $ 8000 to reach $ 902000 at the end of May.
The increase was the fifth month of consecutive growth of the city and the largest monthly increase since 2021, since other indicators revealed an improvement of conditions.
The interim executive president of the Royal Institute of Victoria, Jacob Caine, said the agents were seeing the activity of the buyer, a greater offer in auctions and more buyers organizing offers prior to the auction for housing.
“Porto a large amount that comes out of the market that prices are rising, but generally speak through other factors are very good signs that would also indicate that prices are increasing,” Cain said.
“I think it is absolutely fair to anticipate that as Melbourne’s housing prices continue to return to historical maximums, that buyers will experience disappointment and frustration as properties that could have the attainable legs and perfords.
The senior economist of Proptrack, Angus Moore, said it was an important note that Melbourne’s average value not necessarily translated into higher sales prices for all houses in the market.
“Obviously, the increase in housing prices can make homes less affordable for buyers for the first time, although the fact that interest rates are falling will help improve affordability,” Moore said.
“But the fact that we are seeing a reasonable volume of Avia houses: Up for auction gives buyers a little more option.”
Ray White, which represents 25 percent of the Melbourne auction market, recorded an average price of $ 833,000 as a result of the 145 auctions that Hero Hero Hero throughout the city last week, which was an increase of 4 percent when compared to 12 months before.
According to Proptrack, Victoria achieved a auction clearance rate of 67 percent last week of 1537 auction results.
