January 2, 2020
Recent data from CoreLogic’s national home value index shows housing values continue to rise in Perth with a 1.1% increase in December and an impressive 4% over the last quarter finishing 2019 on a positive note.
“the housing value rebound was spurred on by lower mortgage rates, a relaxation in borrower serviceability assessments, improved housing affordability and renewed certainty around property taxation policies post the federal election. Lower advertised stock levels persisted providing additional upwards pressure on prices amidst rising buyer activity.” said Tim Lawless, Head Researcher for CoreLogic.
