The cities of Perth and Adelaide are exceptions to this pattern, with Adelaide halted, and Perth showing no signs of decreasing.

Melbourne's home market remains an outlier, with expected moderate yearly development of up to 2 per cent for homes. This will leave the typical house cost at in between $1.03 million and $1.05 million, marking the slowest and most irregular recovery in the city's history.
The 2022-2023 decline in Melbourne spanned five successive quarters, with the typical house price falling 6.3 percent or $69,209. Even with the upper projection of 2 percent growth, Melbourne house costs will just be just under halfway into recovery, Powell stated.

The existing overhaul of the migration system might cause a drop in need for local realty, with the introduction of a new stream of experienced visas to remove the incentive for migrants to live in a regional area for 2 to 3 years on getting in the nation.
This will indicate that "an even higher proportion of migrants will flock to metropolitan areas in search of better job potential customers, hence moistening need in the local sectors", Powell said.
