" Costs are still increasing but not as quick as what we saw in the past financial year," she said.

Perth and Adelaide are the exceptions. "Adelaide has actually been like a steam train-- you can't stop it," she stated. "And Perth just hasn't slowed down."

Apartment or condos are likewise set to become more pricey in the coming 12 months, with systems in Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth, the Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast to strike new record costs.

"If wage growth stays at its current level we will continue to see stretched affordability and dampened demand," she said.

Throughout rural and suburbs of Australia, the worth of homes and apartment or condos is prepared for to increase at a consistent speed over the coming year, with the projection varying from one state to another.

However regional areas close to cities would stay appealing places for those who have been priced out of the city and would continue to see an increase of need, she included.
