Australia\u2019s busiest property markets at the moment can be found in larger cities, where life is more unrestricted due to successful containment of Covid-19. These markets have an active band of first-home buyers which are highly boosted by government aid and record low-interest rates. The property prices are also rising due to low rental vacancy numbers and an upward surge in rents.<\/p>\n

These trends are highly prominent right now in the city of Perth. To understand more, here is an overview of Perth’s residential market post-Covid-19 restrictions, and why so many are moving in on Perth\u2019s housing market.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Quick Post-Pandemic Growth<\/h2>\n

After the peak of restrictions, Perth\u2019s real estate interest has made a comeback. This is because of the market\u2019s greater resistance to the impact of the pandemic compared to the majority of other Australian housing markets. Perth’s growth reinstatement has been quicker than analysts have expected and it is perceived to last for at least a couple of years, or more. Analysts also predicts that Perth’s house prices could even soar another 10 to 15 % in the coming six months.<\/p>\n

The demands of pent-up buyers, the historically low-interest rates, and the remarkable tight rental market has fueled up a blast within the Perth property market.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The increase in house value has seen buyers offer thousands more than the asking price, in fear of running out of the fast-selling market where rentals are no longer available. A $750,000 market valued Marmion home even sold at an astonishing $877,000 at an auction as a result of the increasing demand.<\/p>\n

Government Grants<\/h2>\n

Perth\u2019s regrowth is further backed up by first-home buyer incentives, 5% off-the-plan purchases discount, the HomeBuilder scheme<\/a>, and WA Building Bonus. Perth\u2019s median house price gained 0.6 per cent in October to a\u00a0 value of $475,199, while unit prices rose 0.4 per cent. The Federal Government\u2019s HomeBuilder grant led to a whopping 121% increase in Perth residential land sales.<\/p>\n

Significantly, Western Australia\u2019s resiliency in combating the economic impacts of the coronavirus and enhancing the creation of job opportunities in the state while other Australian cities suffer, had a positive influence on the local property market in Perth.<\/p>\n

Thus, the experts are extremely confident that Perth and other Western Australian property markets glorious economic years are here and will continue to flourish in years to come.\u00a0 This is why the world-renowned demographer and author Bernard Salt exclaimed that Perth is \u201cthe right place for the moment\u201d!<\/p>\n
