Yeah, exactly.
If we didn't have an undersupply of homes in Australia...
almost guarantee that would be a much larger number.
So I think that that undersupply absolutely helps to keep a floor under housing prices to some extent, but the demand side fundamentals really need to be considered here.
Absolutely, we have very low levels of supply.
When you look at immediate supply, so how many homes are actually being advertised or listed for sale, that's now getting to above average levels.
So for people looking to buy a home at the moment,
Not buy a new home, but buy an established home in a marketplace.
There's more listings than what we've seen over the past five years on average in Sydney, in Melbourne, now in Brisbane, which is quite different for that market.
Perth used to have listing numbers about 50% below average.
Now it's about 15% below average and rising quite quickly.
So there's more stock to choose from.
Absolutely.
This isn't about investors dumping stock on the market or homeowners suddenly becoming vendors.
In fact, new listings coming to the market are actually quite low.
They're below average.
What I'm talking about here is your total stock levels, not the flow of new listings coming to market.
And because homes are taking longer to sell- The things that haven't sold.
Exactly.
There's an accumulation of stock in the market that's building up over the last few months.
