HOUSE prices continued to stagnate or deflate across the country in the June quarter, with only Sydney’s housing market showing signs of life.

Data from the Fairfax Media-owned Australian Property Monitors for the three months to June show Sydney escaped a national downturn in median house prices of 0.6 per cent, recording instead a slim rise of 0.1 per cent.

“With the exception of Darwin, the Sydney and Melbourne housing markets have proved to be the best performers over the year,” an APM senior economist, Andrew Wilson, said.

The figures reflect consumer caution regarding debt as well as concern about the global economy.

Both Brisbane and Perth continued their long, slow decline, with median prices falling 1.3 and 1.5 per cent respectively. Canberra recorded a surprise 2.8 per cent fall over the quarter.

The national median house price was $546,121. National unit prices were down 0.8 per cent to $404,753, the APM figures show.

Investors could be running out of time to find a bargain, with Australian Property Monitors (APM) predicting the property market will pick up in 2012. Despite softer conditions in 2011, senior economist Andrew Wilson says the company’s quarterly House Price Report indicates better times are ahead.

“Early signs are emerging of increased first homebuyer and investor activity in most markets, albeit from a low base, that will help to encourage market activity and confidence,” Wilson says.

APM predicts Brisbane will be one of the first cities to gather momentum. Brisbane median house prices have fallen by 1.3 per cent in the June quarter and 4.9 per cent over the past 12 months. However APM says it’s unlikely there will be further drops and “buyer activity in Brisbane should increase as the reconstruction effort gathers pace, with prices starting to stabilise into 2012.”

Sydney and Melbourne also showed slightly better results over the last quarter. Prices in Sydney increased by 0.1 per cent, after falling 0.5 per cent in the previous quarter.

“In the June quarter, diverse local conditions had a more significant impact on median prices in each city, with these individual factors expected to have continued variable effects on growth in each market,” Wilson says.

“This is in contrast to the effect of national market conditions that have impacted prices across the board until recently. The prospect remains, however, of increased buyer activity emerging through the spring selling season.”

Residential property constitutes the major investment for most Australians, and is the largest sector of the property market. In 2010, residential property had an estimated total value of almost $3,700 billion, comprising around 8.95 million dwellings.

In 2011 we are seeing property price growth beginning to stall, what with the increasing interest rates and the expiry of the First Home Owner’s Grant Boost Scheme causing a decline in the number of first home buyers active in the market. Interest rates look set to increase again to stave off inflation.

Government spending is starting to diminish in terms of its role as a key driver of the economy, and there are signs that private investment may take over this function in the economy, with growth expected to accelerate from 2011/12. Furthermore, most residential markets remain in shortage, with low vacancy rates and solid rental growth coming through.
