Sydney Leads Australia's Housing Market Resurgence

The information on this website is general in nature and does not take into account your objectives, financial situation, or needs. Consider seeking personal advice from a licensed adviser before acting on any information.

CoreLogic's latest preliminary auction results have revealed Sydney's dominant role in Australia's housing rebound, with an impressive clearance rate of 71.4%.

This marks the sixth consecutive week that the auction clearance rate in Sydney has surpassed 70%.

Over recent months, Sydney's auction market has shown signs of revitalisation. The cityâ€™s final auction clearance rate has climbed from an average of 57% last December to 64% in March, according to CoreLogic's figures.

The residential property market's strength is further reflected in CoreLogicâ€™s daily dwelling values index, positioning Sydney at the forefront of the national price recovery. Over the past 28 days, Sydney experienced a growth rate of 0.5%, currently the highest among major Australian capital cities.

Commenting on the trend, CoreLogicâ€™s Tim Lawless observed that home buyers have significantly increased their activity following recent rate hikes, which have propelled buyer interest from below-average to approximately average levels. Lawless noted a transformative "changing of the guard" in market dynamics, with Sydney and Melbourne leading the recovery trend, overshadowing mid-sized capitals such as Brisbane and Perth.

As Australiaâ€™s most expensive property market, Sydney is poised to benefit substantially from three anticipated rate cuts within this calendar year. This fiscal environment could further stimulate growth and strengthen Sydney's position as a housing market leader.

Looking ahead, stakeholders in the Australian housing sector will be watching closely to see how these developments evolve and influence broader market trends nationwide.

Fresh consumer warnings about online vehicle scams are a timely reminder for caravan buyers to slow down before transferring deposits, sharing identity documents or arranging settlement.

Why Towing Compliance Should Sit Inside Your Caravan Budget

10 Sep 2026: Paige Estritori

Recent caravan and RV safety coverage ahead of the spring touring season has put towing compliance back in the spotlight. For buyers, the message is broader than road safety alone.

Why Rate-Cut Hopes Still Need a Caravan Budget Reality Check

27 Aug 2026: Paige Estritori

Recent inflation commentary has given borrowers a little more optimism, but it has not removed the need for careful planning before committing to caravan finance. While some price pressures appear to be cooling, the Reserve Bank of Australia is still likely to focus on whether inflation is moving sustainably lower, not simply whether one data point looks more comfortable. - read more

Why the Tow Vehicle Trend Still Matters for Caravan Buyers

20 Aug 2026: Paige Estritori

Australia’s latest new-vehicle sales updates continue to underline a practical point for caravan buyers: the caravan is only one part of the purchase decision.

A More Selective Caravan Market Could Help Prepared Buyers

13 Aug 2026: Paige Estritori

Recent caravan industry reporting suggests Australia's RV market is moving into a more selective phase, with buyers taking longer to decide, comparing layouts more carefully and looking harder at total ownership costs before committing. That does not mean demand for caravanning has disappeared. Rather, it points to a market where households are more cautious, dealers are working harder to convert enquiries, and value is being judged beyond the headline price. - read more
