Market update JULY – DECEMBER 2023 Courtesy of Jessica Cao Ray White Upper North Shore
What an interesting year 2023 was! Despite the challenges of rising interest rates and economic uncertainties, the market has showcased incredible resilience especially across the Upper North Shore. Contrary to many analysts’ expectations, property prices did not plummet even after 13 interest rate hikes by the Reserve Bank of Australia, which increased official rates by 4.25% over 18 months. In fact, property prices consistently rose from early 2023. Spring saw the usual influx of properties come to the market and there was some concern that with more listings available, there would be less urgency among buyers, yet auction clearance rates remained strong. In fact, across Ray White NSW on the last weekend of spring, there were 161 auctions scheduled with a clearance rate of 71% and 89% sold, including those that sold prior to their scheduled auction. These results continued to show increased momentum as we move into summer. WELCOME TO MY LATEST MARKET UPDATE So what can we expect from the property market in 2024? • With interest rates likely at or near their peak, a strong rental market, a lack of housing supply and strong population growth, the property market is poised for continued growth in 2024. • The big four banks are predicting no further significant interest rate hikes and possible rate cuts beginning in late 2024 or early 2025. They’re also predicting a rise in house prices of between 3% and 5% in 2024. • With the Australian economy’s overall strength, including employment rates and consumer confidence, it’s expected that the economy will maintain its resilience throughout 2024, further strengthening the growth of the property market. I look forward to assisting you with your property goals this year. Give me a call anytime for a confidential chat about your real estate needs. Jessica Cao 0466 877 260 jessica.cao@raywhite.com

VENDOR - 312/8 SHOUT RIDGE, LINDFIELD Hard working Jessica came highly recommended by one of our friends as a reliable and reputable real estate professional in Sydney’s north shore area. We are based overseas so Jessica and her team took care of all the pre-campaign preparations and reported to us regularly. Throughout the whole campaign, Jessica and her team communicated with us daily so we knew the progress as if we lived in Sydney. The house was sold for a great price at the auction and we are very happy with Jessica’s hard work and dedication. VENDOR - 58 WELLINGTON ROAD, EAST LINDFIELD Impressive experience We chose Jessica and her team as our agent after attending the open house for another property they were marketing. Their marketing and presentation of this property greatly impressed us.
