Sydney Housing Market Crash? 18% Annual Decline Now in Focus

Aussie Real Estate Podcast

Show Notes

We talk with Michelle May a Buyers agent in Sydney about the Sydney housing market showing significant weakness, with dwelling values falling 1.4% in August. The current trajectory has raised the possibility of an annual decline of 18% to 18.4% if the trend continues. That would represent an exceptionally sharp downturn, with buyers, sellers and investors watching the next data closely.
