Market comment: Sydney Property Upswing is Underway
The 25 basis points interest rates cut announced by the Reserve Bank after its May meeting came as a surprise to most economic forecasters. In the RBA's quarterly Statement on Monetary Policy, the Bank emphasised that the Australian dollar had remained high while inflation at its present rate posed few concerns. So we move back to the position where ... Read more...

Market comment: Sydney real estate accelerates
The Reserve Bank decided at its April meeting to once again leave interest rates as they are for now. RBA Governor Glenn Stevens' monthly announcements are beginning to resemble a recorded message - something like: "The economy's going well, rate cuts are working, and if conditions take a turn for the worse we can always look at further reductions." ...

Market comment: Sydney real estate is a source of confidence
Despite the usual uncertainties that accompany an impending federal election, Australia's consumers are demonstrating a remarkable level of confidence, according to the March Westpac-Melbourne Institute consumer sentiment survey. Where a score of 100 indicates that the weight of optimism just offsets the weight of pessimism, the March score of 110.5 is the best recorded since December 2010. One of the ... Read more...

Market comment: 2013 off to a good start for Sydney Property
There were quite a few economists and other property-watchers caught off guard when the Reserve Bank of Australia didn't change its cash rate at the RBA's February meeting. A reduction of 25 basis points had been expected, although it's now a virtual certainty for the Bank's next meeting. For now the official cash rate remains at 3%. In his statement ... Read more...

Market comment: 2013 looking good for Sydney property
Although it's been ten years since the Sydney property market peaked, to some it might seem like only yesterday that homeowners could count on their properties shooting up by something like 10% per annum. But since 2003 the rates of increase have been brought much closer to other indices such as the increase in the cost of living or the ... Read more...

Market comment: Optimism is Sydney Property's best Christmas present
The end of 2012 has set the stage for a buoyant year ahead with Sydney's best spring selling season since 2009. In case you've forgotten, that was the year Australia experienced the recessionary impacts of the GFC and property markets across the nation applied the brakes. Dr Andrew Wilson, senior economist at Australian Property Monitors, grew understandably bullish, and said ... Read more...

Market comment: Year ends with Rising Demand for Sydney Property
There were several red faces among economists when the Reserve Bank decided not to drop its cash rate at the RBA’s November meeting. Before the announcement a rate cut was an odds-on favourite, but favourites don’t always cross the finish line first. In this race the Bank decided to keep things as they were for at least another month and ... Read more...

Market comment: Interest Rate Cuts Drive Sydney Property Resurgence
The Reserve Bank’s announcement of a cut in the cash rate on 2 October was not a surprise for most analysts of Sydney’s real estate market. Nor was the relatively small amount of the cut – just a quarter of a percent, bringing the rate down to 3.25% as of 3 October. In his statement following the RBA October board ... Read more...
