April 2025 Real Estate Market Report

Welcome to your April 2025 market update, brought to you by @realty, your trusted partner in real estate. 

Home prices across Australia continued to rise in March, driven by renewed market momentum following the Reserve Bank’s February rate cut.

The rate cut boosted borrowing capacities and buyer confidence, helping to reignite demand and reverse the small price declines seen in the months prior.

@realty recorded another successful month, selling $526,985,544 worth of property across the region—marking a 30.67% increase from last year’s sales.

Key Market Trends 

National home prices rose 0.27% in March, pushing values to an all-time high. Prices are now 3.91% higher than a year ago and 48% higher over the past five years.

Capital cities led the gains, with prices rising 0.31%, while regional markets saw a 0.18% increase. Both segments reached new record highs.

Canberra (+0.54%) and Sydney (+0.47%) led price growth, while Brisbane (+0.07%), Adelaide (+0.18%), and Perth (+0.15%) saw more modest increases.

Despite this, these three cities remain the top performers over the past year, with values up 9.39%, 11.32%, and 11.53%, respectively.

Melbourne, Canberra, and Sydney saw the strongest quarterly growth turnaround, following slower conditions in late 2024.

Growth has slowed in Adelaide, Brisbane, and Perth, after strong momentum in 2023-24.

While capital cities are leading the price rebound, annual growth in regional areas (+4.59%) continues to outpace capital city growth (+3.64%).

Affordability challenges and increased housing availability tempered capital city growth in 2024, but the February rate cut reignited buyer demand.
