If you are waiting for the right time to buy property in Australia, you would have to save $1,620 on average per week to keep up with property price increases. That’s right - on average the Australian property price increases by $1,620 per week.

From January 1st 2023 to January 1st 2024 we saw property prices increase in value by an average of more than:

$125,000 SYD ($2,400 per week)
$103,000 BNE ($2,000 per week)
$100,000 PER ($1,900 per week)
$67,000 ADE ($1,300 per week)
$27,000 MEL ($500 per week)

According to the latest ABS figures, the average Australian household saves approximately $192 per week. So if you are waiting or trying to save more, chances are you will never keep pace with the property market.

In this episode, we discuss the significance of understanding market cycles, the real cost of waiting too long to invest and the benefits of strategic investments in different areas of Australia. If you’re looking to make your first investment and create a legacy for your family, tune in to this episode!
