" Rates are still rising however not as fast as what we saw in the past fiscal year," she said.
Perth and Adelaide are the exceptions. "Adelaide has resembled a steam train-- you can't stop it," she said. "And Perth simply hasn't slowed down."
Apartment or condos are also set to become more pricey in the coming 12 months, with units in Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth, the Gold Coast and the Sunlight Coast to strike new record rates.
Regional systems are slated for a total price boost of 3 to 5 per cent, which "says a lot about price in terms of buyers being guided towards more economical home types", Powell said.
Melbourne's property market stays an outlier, with anticipated moderate annual growth of approximately 2 per cent for houses. This will leave the mean home price at between $1.03 million and $1.05 million, marking the slowest and most irregular recovery in the city's history.
The 2022-2023 downturn in Melbourne spanned 5 successive quarters, with the median house rate falling 6.3 percent or $69,209. Even with the upper forecast of 2 per cent development, Melbourne home prices will only be simply under midway into recovery, Powell said.

Australia's housing market remains under considerable stress as families continue to face affordability and serviceability limits amidst the cost-of-living crisis, heightened by continual high rates of interest.

A silver lining for potential homebuyers is that the upcoming stage 3 tax reductions will put more money in people's pockets, thereby increasing their ability to take out loans and ultimately, their purchasing power nationwide.
Powell said this could further bolster Australia's real estate market, however might be balanced out by a decrease in real wages, as living expenses increase faster than earnings.
"If wage development remains at its present level we will continue to see extended cost and moistened need," she said.
