How the Property Market Became Millionaires’ Row
- Australia's average home price surpassed A$1 million for the first time in the March quarter 2025, marking a historic milestone nationwide.
- This milestone followed years of housing undersupply worsened by pandemic-related material and labor shortages, alongside recent Reserve Bank interest rate cuts boosting demand.
- Home prices vary by state, with NSW leading at A$1.25 million, Queensland second at A$945,000, and Western Australia showing the highest growth of 13.4 percent in the last year.
- Matthew Hassan from Westpac noted house price expectations rose to the highest level since 2013, with over three-quarters of consumers anticipating further increases.
- The over-A$1 million average accentuates ongoing affordability challenges that the government aims to address by overhauling planning schemes and reducing building regulations to stimulate construction.
