The average price of Australian residential property has risen over the past ten years, and in December 2024, it reached 976,800 Australian dollars. Nonetheless, property experts in Australia have indicated that the country has been in a property bubble over the past decade, with some believing the market will collapse sometime in the near future. Property prices started declining in 2022; however, a gradual upward trend was witnessed throughout 2023, with minor fluctuations in 2024. Australian capital city price differences While the national average residential property price has exhibited growth, individual capital cities display diverse trends, highlighting the complexity of Australia’s property market. Sydney maintains its position as the most expensive residential property market across Australia's capital cities, with a median property value of approximately 1.19 million Australian dollars as of April 2025. Brisbane has emerged as an increasingly pricey capital city for residential property, surpassing both Canberra and Melbourne in median housing values. Notably, Perth experienced the most significant annual increase in its average residential property value, with a 10 percent increase from April 2024, despite being a comparably more affordable market. Hobart and Darwin remain the most affordable capital cities for residential properties in the country. Is the homeownership dream out of reach? The rise in property values coincides with the expansion of Australia's housing stock. In the December quarter of 2024, the number of residential dwellings reached around 11.29 million, representing an increase of about 53,200 dwellings from the previous quarter. However, this growth in housing supply does not necessarily translate to increased affordability or accessibility for many Australians. The country’s house prices remain largely disproportional to income, leaving the majority of low- and middle-income earners priced out of the market. Alongside this, elevated mortgage interest rates in recent years have made taking out a loan increasingly unappealing for many potential property owners, and the share of mortgage holders at risk of mortgage repayment stress has continued to climb.

This project comprises two studies that examine the relationship between investor attention and house prices in the Australian housing market. The first study investigates the correlation between investor attention, measured by the Google Search Volume Index, and house prices in Australia. It uncovers a strong positive correlation, indicating that fluctuations in investor attention closely align with changes in house prices. The study also highlights the predictive potential of investor attention in forecasting housing market trends, supported by behavioural finance principles that emphasise the impact of investor sentiment on asset pricing, particularly in real estate. The second study explores the bidirectional relationship between house prices and investor attention using OLS regression, VAR modeling, Granger causality tests, impulse response functions, and forecast error variance decomposition. The findings confirm that investor attention significantly influences housing prices, and past house prices can also impact current investor attention. In addition, short-term shocks in house prices cause fluctuations in investor attention, although these effects are transient. This study underscores the importance of integrating investor attention with traditional economic factors to better understand and predict housing market dynamics. These empirical studies contribute significantly to the literature on investor attention and housing market dynamics, representing some of the earliest empirical inquiries into the relation between housing market fluctuations and investor attention. By bridging these two critical domains, the research provides valuable insights for policymakers, real estate investors, and market analysts. The findings also lay a foundation for scholars and practitioners to enhance housing market analysis and prediction, offering substantial implications for market forecasting and intervention strategies.
