In 2022 we saw the introduction of interest rate hikes and even with eight interest rate hikes in 2022 Perth's real estate market still rose 2.86% with the median house price increasing from $525,000 to $540,000. So why is this and what does it mean for Perth real estate in 2023? When you take into consideration WA's booming economy, low unemployment figures, continued population growth, low supply and high demand for housing and an average median house price that's approximately $400k-$500k less than Sydney and Melbourne it's not rocket science to predict we have a very robust and encouraging real estate future in front of us. In fact Perth still remains the most affordable capital city by median house price, and while prices have risen in the past two years, in many areas they are still below the previous peak in 2014/15. REIWA predicts the next 12 months is likely to show a moderate growth of between 2-5 % and based on current market expectations, interest rates are anticipated to have minimal impact on the WA market, in contrast to other states. With all this in mind aren't you glad you live in WA in 2023? Provincial Real Estate 'the home of new beginnings' insights & news What is the real estate market going to look like in 2023?

What once was an area closely tied to the logging industry back in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s has now become a lifestyle housing haven for families and those who appreciate nature and wide open spaces combined with convenience and amenities. The name Lesmurdie was derived from Mr Archibald Sanderson, a Perth journalist who fell in love with the area reminding him of his rural retreat back in Banffshire, Scotland which he named ‘Lesmurdie’. The suburb now is one of Perth’s most popular and sought after Hills suburbs to live in with it being the closest hills suburb to Perth, offering a plethora of fantastic primary and upper schooling both public and private, two shopping precincts, renown sporting facilities including Ray Owen Recreatio Centre and only a 5 minute drive to the bustling township of Kalamunda. In addition to the many amenities Lesmurdie has to offer is its housing options and natural ttractions a e also abund nt. From Palatial Escarpment Manors, cute leafy country cottages to rural estates there is so much choice for a variety of families and lifestyle seekers. Lesmurdie’s surrounding natural environment is the core attraction for both residents and vi itors showcasing its stunning natura bushland reserve , Lesmurdie Falls, countless walking and mountain bike trails and of course the people that live here valuing a mindset of community and a protective love for its natural fauna and flora. ‘Lucky to Live in Lesmurdie’ is an understatement and one that should be not taken for granted.

Our unique lifestyle here in Kalamunda and surrounding hills suburbs has been rediscovered by buyers that would not necessarily ever have considered a move to the hills before. More and more people are leaving the city burbs and shoulder to shoulder lifestyl s for a spacious, natural and embracing new beginning for themselves and their families. What isn't to love about Kalamunda we are only 30 minutes drive to Perth's CBD, we have just about all the amenities you could ask for in our adorable village, fantastic schooling, large lifestyle blocks, gorgeous bushland reserves, walking and wine trails on our door step, the new Forrestfield Train station minutes away and of course Kalamunda's close knit community. Yes interest rates and inflation has increased however we must remember that Perth is still one of the lowest median house prices in Australia, coupled with low unemployment, mining is taking off and according to a recent West Australian survey 1 in 10 Australians are considering about moving to Perth. With all this in mind along with a yearning for people to change their families lives and head for the hills, our future looks bright.

Fall in love with autumn! It’s the perfect time of year for hearty salads, slow-cooker favourites, one-pot wonders and other quick and easy warming dinner recipes that say a gentle farewell to summer. Samantha Lambert Provincial Real Estate I have fond memories as a child, growing up in New Zealand of my parents regularly making this pie. It's a great snack year round served hot or cold. It's simple, quick and asy to prepare. It's batable whether this dish is Australian or New Zealand. Being a Kiwi I'll claim it as originating in New Zealand, along with Russell Crowe.
