Has the Perth property market finally slowed down? π
We're hearing a lot of noise in the media and around the market at the moment, which naturally creates uncertainty for buyers and sellers alike.
The good news? Perth continues to be one of Australia's strongest-performing property markets, with home values and sale prices continuing to trend upwards.
While we're seeing home open numbers soften slightly and buyers take a little longer to make decisions, we're still achieving outstanding results across the northern coastal suburbs, with several properties in Karrinyup and Scarborough setting new benchmark prices.
The biggest shift we've noticed since the Federal Budget announcement has been the increase in available stock. Listings are growing by hundreds of properties each month, giving buyers more choice and greater confidence to be selective before making a commitment.
What does that mean for sellers?
Properties are still selling, but buyers are becoming more discerning. Success is no longer just about putting a property online and waiting for multiple offers to roll in. It's about strategic marketing, strong buyer follow-up, skilled negotiation, and having an agent who's prepared to work just as hard in week four as they did in week one.
The Perth market isn't slowing down, it's normalising.
