What does the sydney Real Estate Market Have in Store for 2021?

12/13/2020

Super low interest rates are set to bolster the Sydney real estate market in 2021 and beyond. Economic uncertainty and outer city relocation due to COVID-19 resulted in a Q3 2020 slight decline 0.3% decline in the market, according to CoreLogic. But signs and forecasts for 2021 look promising.

​But what should we expect in 2021?


Some economists are predicting a turnaround, with Sydney prices expected to rise at around 8.8%, with the low interest rates and government stimulus packages really pushing people to purchase when they can. So, what is stopping those larger growth numbers that we have seen in recent years?

We likely won’t see these recently skyrocketing prices due to the effects of the pandemic – continued uncertainty, minimal population growth through immigration and the location independence of jobs relocating many outside of the the inner-city regions.

​CoreLogic noted in some of their recent weekly figures that Sydney’s housing market is performing well in auction rates with a 76.6 per cent clearance rates. Owner-occupiers and first home buyers are steering the market, particularly those who have been able to maintain stable employment. Yet the investor market is still quite low, with the ABS’s latest figures showing that investors are making up less than 15 per cent of new loan applications.

​What does this mean for the rental market?

While owner occupiers and first home buyers can still take advantage of lower home prices, what we are likely to see is more demand on rental properties and therefore price increases flowing through to meet those demands.

Predicting and forecasting the market is hard at any point but predicting and forecasting as we come out of a pandemic is even harder. But, as noted by Property Update, there are some promising indicators that the market is on an upwards trend, including:
  • Gradual rise in consumer confidence
  • Auction clearance rates getting stronger
  • More buyers and sellers starting to come into the market
  • Banks are becoming keen to get new business
  • Loan deferral rates are falling - less likelihood of forced mortgagee sales
  • Solid talk of rates remaining low for the next three years

​So, what about those looking to get into the market or downsize when prices are on the increase?

New developments and builds, like Montane Kellyville are popping up and are fantastic for those looking to get into the market, downsize or even upsize from an inner-city apartment. Boutique and smart technology apartments are in demand, and they aren’t lasting long on the market.
