The Australian Property Market Cycle...(Timing Of The Market Vs Time In The Market)

Here is what you will learn by watching this video:

One of the most fundamental principles of investing in property in Australia is to appreciate that the market moves in distinct cycles which are characterised by periods of strong capital growth and demand for properties, through to periods of a flat-lining market, following periods of distinctive falling median prices, lower demand for properties, and a decline in property prices.

The general rule of thumb is that these property cycles last 7 to 10 years, and can be segmented into 4 main parts, the 'Peak of the Market' being the shortest of the four;

1. Peak of the Property Market - High capital growth, auction clearance rates of 85 per cent plus.
2. Decline of the Property Market - Declining capital growth, auction clearance rates dropping from 80 per cent to 60 to 50 per cent.
3. Bottom of the Property Market - Extended periods of low capital growth, auction clearance rates of 45 per cent to 50 per cent.
4. Growth of the Property Market - Increasing capital growth, increase demand for property, increasing auction clearance rates, 55 per cent to eventually 75 per cent.
