What are the latest trends in the Australian property market?
It's The Real Estate Podcast across every state, city and town of Australia. And welcome to another episode of The Real Estate Podcast, available on iHeartRadio every morning, also on Spotify and Apple and wherever you get your podcasts from. It is a Wednesday, the 20th day of July for 2022. And coming up, we are talking about those June statistics and numbers with Angus Moore from PropTrack. Not every state I can tell you is tracking in the same direction, but something that is heading all in the same direction in all states across Australia is the cost of building. It is insane what is going on. And it all has to do with supply and demand driving the price up. And it was a snowball effect of people not spending billions of dollars on overseas trips because of the borders being shut off.
So then people decided to build. And if they weren't building new, they were renovating. And there lays the problem. If you're celebrating your birthday today for the 20th, you are celebrating it with Carlos Santana. He is turning 74 years young. And also on this day, pretty historic, 1969, Apollo 11 carrying Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin lands on the surface of the moon. And then in 1976 on this day, US Viking 1 lands on Mars. It was the first Martian landing, which is pretty incredible when you think that man landed on the moon in 1969 and then just seven years later had an unmanned landing on Mars. But I guess the real question now is whether or not Elon Musk is going to do what he wants to do by landing the first person on Mars or
Or will Twitter have the last word? From first home buyers to property investors and everything in between, every morning on The Real Estate Podcast. It's the main centre forecast with propertybuyer.com.au. And let's check on weather around Australia. First, we go to Sydney, expecting some showers today, a high of 15 degrees. Melbourne, a morning frost is in the forecast. The upside, a mainly fine day, your high of 13 degrees. Brisbane, one or two pieces of rain, 19. And in Perth today, the rain is going to increase and your top of 21 degrees. Grab your coffee and switch on your real estate breakfast every weekday morning from 6.30. And in the market right now, buyers have more choice. And incredibly, it's reflected in data showing that June was the busiest month since 2011 for new home listings.
And I bet that you weren't expecting that.
How did June 2022 compare to previous years for new home listings?
And it's unusual to see new listings up by 8.5% year on year for June. So let's welcome back prop track economist Angus Moore with the numbers, the breakdowns and all of the talking points. Good morning, Angus. Welcome back to the Real Estate Podcast. Good morning. Thanks so much for having me again. So what is going on, Angus? Is this a case of vendors bringing properties across Australia to market before things were just going to get too crazy with those interest rates?
Yeah, it's certainly been, as you say, a very busy start to winter. Now, winter is typically a quieter period and we are seeing that volumes are down compared to earlier in the year. But for a winter and for a June, you know, the start to winter, it's been a very busy month of new listings. In fact, across the capital cities, it's the busiest start to winter since 2011. So, you know, clearly a very busy month. That's kind of been the theme this year. We had a very busy first quarter as well across the capital cities, particularly in places like Sydney and to a very great extent, Melbourne. And we're seeing some of that momentum carry through. Some of these vendors that are coming to market now may have wanted to list earlier in the year, but didn't get their ducks in a row.
And so they're selling now. But we may also be seeing some vendors come to market sooner than they might have otherwise, because they're looking at the threat of higher interest rates, the fact that prices might start falling by more and are trying to sell now.
And so nationally for June house prices, they're dropping off, as you mentioned, by 0.25%. That's according to the PropTrack Home Price Index.
