Are We Still in a Seller’s Market?
Western Australia’s property market has shown sustained strength over the past two years, but many buyers and sellers are now asking the same question — are we still in a seller’s market? Based on current conditions across Perth and much of WA, the short answer is yes — although the pace of growth has stabilised compared to the rapid gains of 2023 and early 2024. Low Supply Is Still Driving Conditions One of the clearest indicators of a seller’s market is limited housing supply. Active listings across Perth remain below long-term averages, despite seasonal increases at the start of the year. While new listings typically rise through February and March, total stock levels are still considerably tighter than historical norms. Low supply means buyers have fewer options, which continues to support competition — particularly in well-located suburbs close to amenities, schools and transport. Homes Are Selling Quickly Another sign of a seller’s market is how long properties spend on the market. Across Perth, median days on market remain relatively low compared to pre-2022 conditions. Well-presented homes in desirable suburbs are often attracting strong interest early in a campaign, with some selling within days. However, buyers are becoming more discerning. Properties that are overpriced or poorly presented are no longer moving as quickly as they did at the peak of the recent surge. Price Growth Has Moderated — But Remains Positive After double-digit annual growth in recent years, price growth has continued into 2025, though at a more measured pace. This moderation does not signal a downturn. Rather, it reflects a market that is finding a more sustainable rhythm while still supported by strong fundamentals — including population growth, tight rental conditions and constrained new housing supply. Interest Rates and Buyer Behaviour While interest rates have influenced borrowing capacity, demand has remained resilient. Many buyers have adjusted expectations rather than exiting the market entirely. First-home buyers remain active in more affordable corridors, while upgrader and investor activity continues where value and rental demand align. So, Is It Still a Seller’s Market? In many parts of Western Australia — particularly Perth — conditions still favour sellers due to: Limited housing supply Ongoing population growth Strong rental demand Relatively fast selling times That said, it is no longer a “one-size-fits-all” market. Strategy, pricing and presentation matter more now than they did during peak competition. For sellers, realistic pricing and strong marketing remain key. For buyers, preparation and informed decision-making are essential. As always, local dynamics vary by suburb, property type and price point. Understanding those nuances can make a significant difference in achieving the right outcome....
7 Things Buyers Wish They Knew Before Purchasing a Home
Buying a home is exciting — but it’s also a learning curve. For many people, it’s not until after settlement that they realise what they might have done differently. Whether you’re stepping into the market for the first time or preparing for your next move, here are some of the most common reflections buyers share — and what you can learn from them. 1. The Price Tag Isn’t the Whole Picture The purchase price is just one part of the equation. Stamp duty, inspections, settlement fees and loan costs can quickly add up. Then there are the ongoing expenses — rates, insurance, strata fees (if applicable) and general maintenance. Understanding the full financial picture from the start can help you plan comfortably, rather than stretching further than intended. 2. Finance Clarity Brings Confidence Many buyers say they underestimated how important pre-approval is. Knowing your borrowing capacity early not only sets realistic expectations, it also allows you to act decisively when the right property comes along. In competitive conditions, preparation makes a noticeable difference. 3. It’s Easy to Buy With Emotion Falling in love with a home is natural — but experienced buyers often say they wish they had taken a more measured approach. Looking at recent comparable sales, researching the suburb, understanding future development plans and considering long-term value can provide helpful perspective. The ideal outcome is a balance between emotion and practicality. 4. Inspections Are Worth It Even homes that present beautifully can have underlying issues. A thorough building and pest inspection offers reassurance and, in some cases, room to negotiate. It’s a small investment that can prevent larger surprises later. 5. Lifestyle Fit Matters More Than You Think It’s easy to focus on features — the number of bedrooms, the size of the living area or the renovation potential. But what many buyers reflect on later is how the property supports their everyday life. Commute times, access to amenities, neighbourhood feel and future plans often become just as important as the floorplan itself. 6. Renovations Rarely Cost Less Than Expected Buying with plans to update or improve can be a smart strategy — but renovations often take more time and budget than anticipated. Factoring in a buffer, both financially and mentally, helps keep expectations realistic. 7. Preparation Reduces Stress Perhaps the biggest lesson of all is that preparation makes the journey smoother. Asking questions, understanding the process, seeking professional advice and taking the time to research can turn what feels overwhelming into something manageable. A Considered Approach Goes a Long Way Every property journey is different, but most buyers agree on one thing — the more informed you are at the start, the more confident you feel throughout the process. If you’re thinking about entering the market and would like clarity around your options or local conditions, having a conversation early can make all the difference....
Scarborough Sunset Markets Are Back for Another Season
As the warmer months roll on, one of Perth’s most iconic coastal events returns — the Scarborough Sunset Markets are back, bringing food, music and community energy to the beachfront. Held on Thursday evenings throughout the summer season, the markets transform the Scarborough foreshore into a vibrant meeting place where locals and visitors gather to enjoy the ocean views, golden sunsets and relaxed coastal atmosphere. A Beachside Experience Running from 5pm to 9pm, the markets offer a diverse mix of food vendors, artisan stalls and live entertainment. With more than 60 food trucks and traders regularly featured, there’s something to suit every taste — from international street food to local favourites and sweet treats. The beachfront setting adds to the appeal. Families spread out picnic rugs on the grass, friends catch up over dinner, and visitors take in the unmistakable Perth sunset over the Indian Ocean.
