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.
Sydney had the highest median house value compared to other capital cities in Australia as of April 2025, with a value of over **** million Australian dollars. Brisbane similarly had relatively high average residential housing values, passing Canberra and Melbourne to top the pricing markets for real estate across the country alongside Sydney. Housing affordability in Australia Throughout 2024, the average price of residential dwellings remained high across Australia, with several capital cities breaking price records. Rising house prices continue to be an issue for potential homeowners, with many low- and middle-income earners priced out of the market. In the fourth quarter of 2024, Australia’s house price-to-income ratio declined slightly to ***** index points. With the share of household income spent on mortgage repayments increasing alongside the disparity in supply and demand, inflating construction costs, and low borrowing capacity, the homeownership dream has become an unattainable prospect for the average person in Australia. Does the rental market offer better prospects? Renting for prolonged periods has become inevitable for many Australians due to the country’s largely inaccessible property ladder. However, record low vacancy rates and elevated median weekly house and unit rent prices within Australia’s rental market are making renting a less appealing prospect. In financial year 2024, households in the Greater Sydney metropolitan area reported spending around ** percent of their household income on rent.
Woolworths Group in Australia recognized total food sales of around ** billion Australian dollars in financial year 2024. This represented an increase from the previous year and a continuing upward trend since 2015. Headquartered in New South Wales, Australia, Woolworths Group is an Australian retail and finance company known for its operation of Woolworths supermarkets across Australia and New Zealand, as well as BIG W department stores. Australia’s supermarket landscape Woolworths, Coles, Aldi, and Metcash (IGA) dominate Australia’s grocery retail market, with Woolworths holding a market share of around ** percent. Its primary competitor, Coles Group, followed with a market share of around ** percent. Over the past decade, the annual revenue of supermarkets and grocery stores in Australia has witnessed steady growth, with the industry remaining resilient throughout the pandemic. Are food prices spiraling out of control? Grocery price inflation has been a key topic of contention over the past few years in Australia, with almost ** percent of households viewing grocery product prices as unfair in a 2024 survey. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) of grocery products in Australia rose across most categories in the year to March 2025, with fruit and vegetables seeing an annual growth of *** percent. To save money, many grocery shoppers nationwide hunt for deals and switch between different supermarkets to buy certain products. Nonetheless, it cannot all be left down to the consumers. From January 2024 to March 2025, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) conducted an inquiry into the country’s supermarket sector to examine pricing and competitive practices among major retailers, including Woolworths, Coles, and Aldi, to ensure Australians are paying fair prices for groceries. The profit margins of Woolworths and Coles increased in 2024 despite cost-of-living pressures, with some consumers viewing this as evidence of inflationary profiteering. Alongside the ACCC inquiry, the government planned to provide funding to consumer advocacy group CHOICE to create price transparency and comparison reports to provide detailed information to customers to help them save money amid excessive price increases.
