Dr. Nicola Powell, the primary economist at Domain, kept in mind that the expected development rates are relatively moderate in the majority of cities compared to previous strong upward trends. She pointed out that prices are still increasing, albeit at a slower than in the previous monetary. The cities of Perth and Adelaide are exceptions to this pattern, with Adelaide halted, and Perth showing no indications of slowing down.

Melbourne's home market remains an outlier, with expected moderate yearly growth of as much as 2 percent for houses. This will leave the average home price at in between $1.03 million and $1.05 million, marking the slowest and most irregular recovery in the city's history.
