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 city’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 CoreLogic’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, CoreLogic’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 Australia’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.

Why Tow Vehicle Costs Now Matter More for Caravan Buyers

06 Aug 2026: Paige Estritori

Australia's latest monthly new-car sales reporting has reinforced a trend caravan buyers cannot afford to ignore: the tow vehicle is becoming just as important to the finance conversation as the caravan itself.

Sticky Inflation Adds Another Budget Check for Caravan Buyers

30 Jul 2026: Paige Estritori

Australia’s latest inflation signals have kept interest-rate relief from looking straightforward, and that is important for anyone planning a caravan purchase before spring.

For Australians planning to buy a caravan, camper trailer or motorhome, the message is clear: do not judge a loan by the advertised rate alone. - read more

What the Latest Rate Outlook Means for Caravan Buyers

09 Jul 2026: Paige Estritori

Australia’s interest-rate outlook has become more uncertain, and that matters for anyone planning to buy, upgrade or refinance a caravan in the second half of 2026. Following the Reserve Bank of Australia’s 16 June decision to keep the cash rate at 4.35%, fresh July forecasts suggest borrowers should not assume relief is just around the corner. - read more
