Australia’s housing downturn marks its fifth consecutive month of decline, with Cotality’s Home Value Index dropping 0.9% in August as market weakness spreads nationwide.

What's driving the broader drops? Tim Lawless explains ⬇️
📉 The downturn is now evident across almost every broad region of the country, Sydney (-1.4%) continued to lead the declines, while Melbourne, Canberra and Brisbane each recorded monthly falls of at least 1%.
🏠 Sales activity is tracking well below both last year's levels and the five-year average, while homes are taking longer to sell and advertised stock levels continue to build.
🔑 Despite softer housing conditions, rental markets remain tight. The national vacancy rate has edged up to 1.9%, but remains well below pre-COVID averages, with rents continuing to rise across every broad region of the country.
👥 Looking ahead, the risk profile has shifted further to the downside. Sticky inflation, the possibility of another interest rate rise, weaker consumer sentiment and a pullback in investment activity are all expected to keep buyer demand subdued through spring.

Cotality’s latest Cordell Construction Cost Index (CCCI) recorded a 1.0% increase in construction costs nationally over the quarter, a significant acceleration from the 0.2% rise in the previous March quarter.

On an annual basis, construction costs rose 2.8% over the 12 months to June, up from 2.3% in March. While this demonstrates stronger growth, this increase remains historically subdued, sitting well below the rates experienced throughout much of the post-pandemic period.

Cordell Costings Estimation Manager, John Bennett said the June quarter’s results reinforce the March quarter slowdown was an anomaly, rather than the beginning of a sustained easing cycle.
