Australian property market dashboard

Six sections covering rates, values, rentals, supply, activity and lending. Figures come from dated public releases and are hidden when their review window expires. A source check date is not the reference period or a guarantee that no newer release exists.

Latest ABS explainer: mortgage interest charges rose 8.2% in the June quarter. Earlier releases: household spending rose 0.8% in June 2026, with important housing-cost exclusions, and household wealth rose 1.2% in the March quarter 2026.

Model your specific position

National numbers are useful for context. To model what they mean for your repayments, borrowing power, deposit and tax position, use the calculators:

Methodology: These are dated headline snapshots, not a live feed. The source links show where figures were recorded. Illustrative values are not published. A sourced snapshot means a source is recorded, not that it was rechecked today.

Review windows: Monthly releases generally expire after 45 days, quarterly releases after 120 days, and cash-rate snapshots by the next scheduled review. These are editorial limits, not publisher release schedules. Expired figures are withheld automatically.

General information: Market aggregates are not a valuation, loan offer, eligibility assessment or investment recommendation. Check the original release and consult an appropriately licensed professional for advice.
