SEPTEMBER QUARTER 2016 | MARKET UPDATE 3

Western Australia’s Consumer Sentiment Index has fallen a significant 14.2 per cent in September to 89.2 - the lowest level of the five major states. The decline comes on the back of solid improvements in consumer sentiment in August with WA consumers now concerned about current and near future economic conditions. Economic conditions over the next 12 months was the main reason for the consumer pessimism, although economic conditions over the next five years has seen a boost in confidence. Compared to consumer sentiment levels a year ago, Western Australia is up 2.0 per cent but remains the lowest amongst the states.

According to the latest figures from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS), domestic demand in Western Australia fell 2.5 per cent in the June quarter to $49.6 billion, its lowest level since June quarter 2011 in seasonally adjusted terms. The main factor of the fall is the decline in private capital investment, which was down by 4.9 per cent to $39.2 billion. The good news is household consumption in the state is still growing at a moderate pace at $25.2 billion. Public capital investment also had its strongest quarter on record, up 7.4 per cent to $10.3 billion. State final demand excludes exports and imports, which is Western Australia’s main commodity in international trade, but remains the best representation of the state’s economy. Overall Australia’s economy increased 3.3 per cent at the end of the 2016 financial year, led by Australian Capital Territory (3.8 per cent) and Northern Territory (2.4 per cent).

4 MARKET UPDATE | JUNE QUARTER 2016

Perth Housing and Land Market PERTH REGION

Multi-residential Dwelling Market The preliminary sales volumes for the multi-residential market for the September quarter are showing sales at 881, compared to a revised June 2016 quarterly figure of 1,203. At the time of publication of the June edition of Market Update, sales volumes were only at 878. This demonstrates a further lift in volumes of around 37 per cent. It can be expected that sales in the multi-residential market will also lift once figures are revised in the next quarter.

The drop off in sales continues to exist for the sixth quarter running and has been on an overall downward trend since the early part of 2013. Sales have decreased in all but one of the sub-regions for the September quarter, with the largest decline coming from the North West sub-region, down approximately 36 per cent against revised June 2016 quarter results.

As was the case until June 2015, the multi-residential median price moved in a tight band of $440-$450,000. However, between the quarters ending March 2016 and June 2016, median prices showed signs of decreasing. For the latest quarter ending September 2016, preliminary multi-residential median prices have lifted by approximately four

per cent to $425,000. The revised June 2016 quarter median is slightly higher at $410,000 from the initially reported $405,500.

The larger Central sub-region has seen median prices increase by around five per cent this quarter. However, the greatest change in multi-residential median prices has occurred in the South East sub-region where the median price has climbed from $247,000 in June 2016 to $285,500 (preliminary September 2016 quarter).

Housing Market A decline in sales activity can be seen within the overall Perth Metro Region as sales turnover has dropped by 32 per cent in the September 2016 quarter compared to revised turnover for the June 2016 quarter. The latest preliminary data continues to show sales volumes retracing further away from the fifteen year long-term average. It is important to note however, that settlements take time to come through, and whilst volumes are low for the September quarter, it can be observed that revised June 2016 quarter data show an increase of approximately 40 per cent in sales activity on preliminary figures.

Looking at the Perth monthly sales chart which uses reiwa.com data (reported sales by REIWA members), it can be seen that sales volumes are continuing to trend downwards on a monthly basis since February 2016. The reiwa.com monthly sales data provides a leading indicator on sales volumes given the nature of the data being reported rather than settled.

Preliminary house sales data shows that all of the sub-regions are lower at the end of the September quarter compared to the June 2016 quarter. The drop-off in volume figures as a whole may be explained by the general sentiment of consumers towards the local economy as well as a recent shift in population trends, with net interstate migration trends reversing and net overseas migration declining from the peaks experienced in 2013.

In the June 2016 Market Update report, the preliminary house median was reported at $520,000, which, as more settlements filtered through, has now been revised to $532,000 on a quarterly basis. The preliminary median house price for the quarter ending September 2016 is $510,000, and it is expected that this will lift as further house sales transactions settle. From a sub-regional perspective,

SEPTEMBER QUARTER 2016 | MARKET UPDATE 5

PERTH REGION Perth Housing and Land Market

Seller Sentiment - HousesIn the overall market for the Perth Metro region, the proportion of sellers discounting has decreased to 51.8 per cent during the September 2016 quarter, down 8.8 percentage points. However, when comparing to the same time last year, sellers’ discounting remains at similar levels. In terms of the size of the discount being offered in the market, for the Perth Metro region, on average sellers’ are discounting by 6.7 per cent, a marginal increase of 0.8 percentage points from the June 2016 quarter. This signals that there is still a strong level of competition in the market amongst sellers. In terms of the overall market sentiment for the September 2016 quarter, sentiment towards the market is still negative at the level of -4.0 per cent.

Listing Stock and Selling Days Total listings at the end of the September 2016 quarter were down to 14,170, a decrease of three per cent.

The Perth Metro region saw an increase in average selling days for houses, units and land (aggregated) at 68 days for the September 2016 quarter. Most sub-regions in the Perth Metro region saw an overall increase in average selling days over the quarter. However, on a positive note, the North East sub-region experienced a decrease of 3 days to sit at 69 days for the quarter.

Land SalesPreliminary figures show land sales continuing to trend lower into the latest September 2016 quarter, which further prolongs the downward trend seen since March 2013. However, it is worth noting that it can take up to four quarters for settled land transactions to come through. For instance, revised figures for the June 2016 quarter came in approximately 127 per cent higher than what was reported in the June 2016 Market Update. This quarter, the preliminary sales for land is at 616.

As was reported in the previous four editions, the median land price continues to trend upwards, and in the case of the September 2016 quarter, the median price has lifted by another 13.7 per cent since the June 2016 quarter. As prices have remained somewhat consistently higher, with sales weakening, this market remains an interesting area to watch.

RESIDENTIAL REAL ESTATE SALES BY PRICE RANGE SEPTEMBER QUARTER 2016Source : Landgate/REIWA

Housing MarketThe preliminary median house price for the September 2016 quarter is $510,000, with the majority of house sales for the quarter sitting within the price range of $400-$500,000. In comparison to the June 2016 quarter, the percentage of transactions within the higher price ranges of $800,000 to greater than $1.5 million are at lower levels for the latest quarter. The $550-$650,000 price range also observed a marginal decline in percentage of sales transactions in comparison to the June 2016 quarter. On the other hand, a greater number of transactions are evident in the lower priced market ($200-$550,000).The higher transactions at the lower end of the market explains the decline of 4.1 per cent in the preliminary median house price for the September quarter.

Land Sales There continues to be a clear positive shift in the percentage of land sales between the $275,000 - $1 Million price ranges. The chart also indicates softening in most of the markets below $275,000. The shift in sales towards the higher end of the market explains the 13.7 per cent increase in the preliminary median land price for the September 2016 quarter.

Multi-residential MarketThe preliminary median unit price is $425,000 for the latest quarter ending September 2016. During this latest quarter, the $400-$450,000 price range saw the most action in terms of sales. On the other hand, during the June 2016 quarter, most sales occurred within the $350-$400,000 price range. The higher end of the market ($500-850,000) also recorded an increase in percentage sales activity in comparison to the June 2016 quarter. In contrast, the lower end of the market below $400,000 recorded a decrease in percentage sales activity in the September 2016 quarter compared to the June 2016 quarter. This explains the improvement of 3.6 per cent in the preliminary median unit price for the September 2016 quarter.SAMPLE

Housing MarketPreliminary data for the September 2016 quarter, show early indications the volume of house sales in the Central sub-region is down by approximately 34 per cent in comparison to the previous quarter. Whilst this decline is more than the June 2016 quarter, REIWA expects revised September quarter data to lift in coming months as more transactions settle. The preliminary figures shows sub-markets including Western Suburbs (down 48 per cent), Vincent/Stirling SE (down 47 per cent), Belmont (down 41 per cent), Stirling West (down 33 per cent), Fremantle (down 32 per cent) and South Perth/Victoria Park (down 32 per cent), all experienced falls in the number of sales by greater than 30 per cent for the September quarter.

Preliminary data has the overall Central sub-region quarterly median for the September quarter down by 6.5 per cent to $645,000 over the revised June quarter median of $690,000. At a sub-market level, the preliminary medians were mixed across the board with drops ranging from -1.9 per cent in Bassendean/Bayswater to -12.8 per cent in South Perth/Victoria Park. The better performing sub-market included: Canning (-0.5 per cent), Stirling West (-2.4 per cent), Belmont (-3.0 per cent) and Melville (-3.9 per cent).

In terms of the change in annual medians, all sub-markets in the Central sub-region have recorded a negative change, with drops recorded from -2.7 per cent in the Western Suburbs to -12.8 per cent in Perth City sub-market. There are a few suburbs in the sub-region that shone a positive light including: Burswood (+16.7 per cent), Swanbourne (+14.8 per cent) and Trigg (+12.9 per cent).

SELLER SENTIMENT: HOUSES SEPTEMBER QUARTER 2016 Source: reiwa.com

Seller Sentiment - HousesThe proportion of sellers discounting in the Central sub-region house market has increased again in the September quarter with 45.3 per cent of sellers discounting compared to 34.8 per cent in June quarter (revised) 2016. The sub-markets with the most sellers discounting in the September quarter are Bassendean/Bayswater at 53.8 per cent and Canning at 51.9 per cent. In the Perth Metro Region, the number of sellers discounting has declined to 51.8 per cent from 60.6 per cent (revised) June quarter 2016.

The discount offered by sellers in the Central sub-region is 7.2 per cent for the September quarter, declining from 7.8 per cent in the June 2016 quarter. So whilst there has been an increase in the proportion of sellers discounting, the discount offered has reduced. This may signal, sellers are meeting the market at the time of listing and not having to adjust their prices significantly in order to sell.

Multi-Residential Market

In the September quarter, preliminary sales volumes have decreased by similar levels to the preliminary June quarter results, recording a 27 per cent drop in the Central sub-region. A decline in preliminary sales activity has been observed across all sub-markets in the Central sub-region. There are a few suburbs in the Central sub-region which actually recorded an increase in sales activity, these suburbs include: East Fremantle (up 57 per cent), Applecross (up 88 per cent) and Mount Pleasant (up 50 per cent).

For the September quarter, the preliminary quarterly change in the median price was up 4.6 per cent to $455,000 after a revised June quarter quarterly median of $435,000. At a sub-market level, South Perth/Victoria Park was up 10.5 per cent and the Western Suburbs was up 11.3 per cent for the quarter.

The picture looks different though for the Central sub-region’s multi-residential market when considering changes in annual medians. There appears to be a bit more stability in the sub-markets in terms of changes in annual medians with positive growth recorded in the Fremantle sub-market at 4.9 per cent, Vincent/Stirling SE at 1.1 per cent and Western Suburbs at 6.0 per cent. The remaining sub-markets had negative growth. The overall performance of the Central sub-region in the annual change in annual median was -1.5 per cent.

Top performers with more than 30 sales for the quarterly change in the annual median for the September quarter include: Joondanna up 10.6 per cent at $459,000, South Perth up 7.4 per cent at 565,000 and Maylands up 4.2 per cent at $389,500.

MEDIAN PRICE OF ESTABLISHED MULTI-RESIDENTIAL SALES - PERTH CENTRAL SUBURBS SEPTEMBER QUARTER 2016Source: Landgate/REIWA

Land MarketThe land market in the Central sub-region is very mixed. Preliminary data for median price in the September quarter indicates an increase of nine per cent to $500,000 from $458,750 on the revised June quarter. Preliminary land sales for the September quarter are currently 146. The June quarter preliminary volumes have increased over the quarter to a revised figure of 272 from the initial 160. So, it is expected a further lift in land sales will occur in coming months. Most of the land sales in the Central sub-region can be found in the sub-markets of Bayswater/Bassendean, Western Suburbs and Stirling East.

In the year to September 2016 the annual change in annual medians is still mixed. The Central sub-region recorded zero growth, with better performers found in Fremantle (up 1.3 per cent), Stirling East (up 6.3 per cent) and Stirling West (up 1.6 per cent).

It is important to note that land sales can take up to 12 months to settle and that the most recent figures provided for the September 2016 quarter will adjust in the future.

Housing and Multi-residential Markets

Preliminary Sales volumes for the housing market in the North West sub-region have continued their decline throughout the September quarter. Sub-markets that are experiencing the greatest decline in sales activity include Wanneroo South (down 46 per cent), Wanneroo North West (down 45 per cent) and Joondalup South (down 40 per cent).

The lower levels of sales transactions have also impacted the preliminary quarterly change in median price. The sub-region has recorded a drop of 3.8 per cent to $500,000 compared to a revised June quarter median of $520,000.

When considering the annual change in the annual median for the North West sub-region, the market is also experiencing some softening in price levels. The sub-region is down 2.8 per cent and all sub-markets have declined as well.

Turning to performance based on the quarterly change in the annual median, Warwick is on top with a lift of 3.2 per cent to $552,650, followed by Sinagra at 2.3 per cent with $440,000.

Land Market Whilst land sales activity in the North East sub-region continues to soften in the quarter, it is important to note that over coming months land sales will settle and on average lift the volumes up, as was evident in the June quarter 2016. In the June edition of Market Update, there were preliminary sales of 163, but now in the September quarter that figure has revised up to 297 sales.

Preliminary data suggests an increase in quarterly median prices for the North East sub-region, up 8.1 per cent to $259,500 from the June quarter revised median of $240,000. For the year to September 2016, the quarterly change in annual median is down 2.2 per cent and the annual change in annual median is also softer at 5.2 per cent lower to $246,425.

Brabham is the best-selling suburb in the North East sub-region for land sales, recording 272 sales in the year to September 2016. Other suburbs with top sales include, Aveley with 216, Dayton with 129, Caversham with 104 and Ellenbrook with 79.

Housing and Multi-residential MarketPreliminary September quarter sales activity is showing a decline of 29 per cent in the North East sub-region. The decline in sales volumes is smaller in this quarter when compared to the June 2016 quarter. Just as was the case in the previous two quarters, all of the sub-markets have contributed to the decline in sales with the Mundaring sub-market recording the largest fall (down 49 per cent) for the quarter.

The preliminary North East sub-region September quarterly median was lower by 3.2 per cent to $450,000 from the revised June 2016 quarter median of $465,000. The Kalamunda sub-market has slipped 5.8 per cent, the Mundaring sub-market is down 4.0 per cent and Swan has declined by 3.9 per cent for the June quarter.

The quarterly change in the annual median for the North East sub-region is also softer, declining 1.1 per cent. In terms of longer growth rates, based on the more stable annual median, the year to September 2016 median is $460,000, down 5.2 per cent.

Guildford topped the local list for best performing suburb based on the quarterly change in the annual median, recording a 2.8 per cent increase, followed by South Guildford at 2.4 per cent and Greenmount at 2.2 per cent.

Whilst the multi-residential market is not significant in the North East sub-region, most of the activity was in the Swan sub-market. The preliminary quarterly median price for units in the North East sub-region is down 9.5 per cent from the June 2016 quarter to $310,000.

Land Market Whilst land sales activity in the South East sub-region continues to soften in the quarter, it is important to note that over coming months land sales will settle and on average lift the volumes up, as was evident in the June 2016 quarter. In the June edition of Market Update, we reported land sales of 162, but now in the September quarter that figure has revised up to 340 sales.

Preliminary data suggests stability in quarterly median prices for the South East sub-region remaining at $240,000 with the June quarter revised median. For the year to September 2016, the annual change in annual median is down 2.5 per cent to $240,000.

Piara Waters is the bestselling suburb in the South East sub-region for land sales, recording 222 sales in the year to September 2016. Other suburbs with top sales include, Byford with 219 sales, Hilbert at 112 sales, Maddington with 89 sales and Harrisdale with 88 sales.

Housing and Multi-residential Market Preliminary sales in the South East sub-region have decreased by approximately 26 per cent during the September quarter. All three sub-markets of Armadale, Gosnells and Serpentine-Jarrahdale recorded a drop in sales activity of 23 per cent, 26 per cent and 36 per cent respectively.

The preliminary South East sub-region quarterly median is down 1.1 per cent to $430,000 from a revised June quarter median of $435,000. At a sub-market level, all sub-markets fell during the quarter, Armadale (down 2.0 per cent), Gosnells (down 1.2 per cent) and Serpentine-Jarrahdale (down 1.2 per cent).

For the year to September 2016, the quarterly change in the annual median is down 1.1 per cent and the more stable annual change in annual median is also down by 3.3 per cent for the year to $435,000.

Housing and Multi-residential Market Preliminary sales figures for the September quarter indicate the South West sub-region had weaker sales activity by 26 per cent. Significant drops in sales volumes were felt across all three sub-markets. 26 per cent in Cockburn, 34 per cent in Kwinana and 24 per cent in Rockingham.

The preliminary quarterly median for the South West sub-region is down by 4.4 per cent to $430,000 from a revised June quarter median of $450,000. Sub-markets experienced mixed motion in preliminary quarterly medians with Kwinana and Rockingham in decline by four and 3.6 per cent respectively, whilst Cockburn saw a marginal increase of one per cent.

Looking at the annual median, there were reductions in the annual change in annual medians across all sub-markets, with the sub-region recording a decline of 3.3 per cent to $445,000. Top suburbs in terms of quarterly change in annual median is Coogee at 3.0 per cent, Beeliar at 2.0 per cent and South Lake at 1.1 per cent.

In the multi-residential market, unit sales maintained positive levels of activity in the Cockburn and Kwinana sub-markets with a lift of nine and 75 per cent respectively in September 2016 quarter. The Rockingham sub-markets recorded a drop of 66 per cent in sales activity. The September preliminary quarterly median price is higher by 1.4 per cent to $350,000 over the revised June quarter median of $345,000.

Land Market Whilst preliminary land sales activity in the South West sub-region continues to soften in the quarter it is important to note that over coming months land sales will settle and on average lift the volumes up, as was evident in the June quarter 2016. In the June edition of Market Update, we reported land sales of 162, but now in the June quarter that figure has revised up to 413 sales.

Preliminary data suggests an increase in quarterly median prices for the South West sub-region, up 16.7 per cent to $283,500 from the June quarter revised median of $243,000. For the year to September 2016, the quarterly change in annual median is up by 1.3 per cent, but the annual change in annual median is lower at -2.7 per cent.

Baldivis is the bestselling suburb in the South West sub-region for land sales, recording 325 sales for the year to September 2016. Other suburbs with top sales include, Wellard at 221 sales, Golden Bay at 129, Wandi at 128 sales and Banjup at 76 sales.

September 2016The overall median weekly rent for the Perth Metro Region has dropped by 2.6 per cent on a quarterly basis to record $370 for the September 2016 quarter. This is down by 7.5 per cent on the same time last year. The volume of leased properties for the Perth Metro Region increased by 11.5 per cent for the September 2016 quarter to record 13,881 leased properties. Over 50 per cent of these leases were for properties in the Central sub-region. Compared to a year ago, leases have increased by 10.3 per cent.

The Perth Metro Region vacancy rate lifted from 6.0 per cent in the June quarter to 6.6 per cent for the latest September 2016 quarter. The vacancy rate has been trending higher since the beginning of the year and the latest quarterly increase reflects the strong lift in properties listed for rent in the market which also continue to trend higher.

A key influencer of the Perth rental market are the trends in migration. The recent population figures from the ABS reveals that net interstate migration continued to worsen during the March 2016 quarter. This, together with subdued overseas migration figures has ensured that population growth is only increasing at a slow rate of 1.2% per annum.

LIFESTYLE LIVING SUMMARY - HOUSE & LAND SALES OF LOTS > 1 HA Year to September 2016Source: Landgate/REIWA

Lifestyle livingStarting with the March 2007 quarter, REIWA has segmented its market analysis into house and land sales above and below one hectare. This step has been taken to reduce the influence that higher prices of larger lifestyle lots have on overall market medians. For the majority of Perth suburbs, this change has no impact as sales of larger properties represent only 1.5-2.0% of total sales whilst in regional WA, this figure is around 5-6%. In terms of the effect on median price, exclusion of houses on lots greater than one hectare reduces Perth’s quarterly median price by $2,000 whilst for regional WA, this figure is $7,000.

The Lifestyle Living Summary table gives an indication of the distribution of lifestyle living house and land sales in the outer metropolitan areas along with sales volumes and median prices for similar properties on the periphery of various regional centres.

Comparisons of annual median house prices for the year to September 2016 highlight the price differential and influence

of lot size. The effects of segmenting markets by lot size appears to be more pronounced in local markets, reflected in the following example for Bridgetown which recorded 19 sales greater than 1Ha and 38 sales less than 1Ha for the year to June 2016.

MEDIAN HOUSE PRICE YEAR TO SEPTEMBER 2016All properties Less than 1 ha Greater than 1 Ha

Perth region $530,694 $530,000 $875,000

Regional WA $370,000 $365,000 $530,000

WA $490,000 $489,000 $654,000

Bridgetown $379,000 $320,000 $510,000

Given the variability in the size and nature of lifestyle living property, the annual and five year average annual change in median price has not been provided.

SEPTEMBER QUARTER 2016 | MARKET UPDATE 51

REIWA MARKET UPDATE Market Research

MethodologySales analysis presented in Market Update is based on settled sales transactions data purchased by REIWA from the Western Australian State Government’s statutory land agency Landgate. All statistical analysis is undertaken by REIWA.It is important to note that whilst only settled sales transaction are used in the analysis, it is the contract date of the sale not the settlement date that is used in the analysis and this defines the respective quarter of transaction.Market Update is prepared from data compiled two to three weeks after the end of the reporting quarter and due to the lag between contract and settlement date it captures a sample of sales activity estimated at around 65-70% of dwelling transactions and 45% of land sales. Therefore all figures for the reporting quarter are considered preliminary for up to 3 months after the end of the quarter after which time revised and final medians are calculated.

Property ClassificationsREIWA includes the following property types within its definition of houses and units with the accuracy of sales volumes and medians dependant on the property classification designated in Landgate data:

• Houses – house, group dwelling (a detached dwelling on a strata lot) and duplex (irrespective of title arrangements due to land component more akin to houses)

• Units – all other attached dwellings including triplex, quadraplex, townhouse, villa, unit, apartment and flat

Other than the inclusion of duplex in the house category (which are semi-detached to the adjoining property), REIWA endeavours to align with the

Australian Bureau of Statistics definition of house being a detached dwelling irrespective of land title arrangements and units capturing attached dwellings that are classified as Other by ABS.All land sales analysis include both green and strata titled lots.

House Price Measures – Medians, Averages and QuartilesThe median price is the middle price in a series of sales. For example, if there are 15 sales recorded in a suburb and these are arranged in order from lowest to highest value, then the eighth sale is the median price. In the case where there is an even number of sales in a series, the median is the average of the middle two prices.An average price is different to a median as it is calculated by adding up the value of all the sales and dividing it by the number of sales.Median prices are generally used in property analysis rather than average prices because median prices are unaffected by a few unusually high or low prices that may skew averages. Whilst the median is regarded as presenting a more accurate measure of true market activity, sample size is also important with 30 sales considered a reliable sample. Below this, the sample may be subject to bias and present undue volatility.Whilst the median provides a general indicator of the trend in property prices for the majority of the market in a suburb, care should be taken when applying the results to an individual property as prices may be influenced by a range of unique factors including age, house and lot size and condition.Other statistical parameters that may be reported in the media or in REIWA research from time to time include the upper and lower quartiles. These are derived in a similar way to calculating the median by placing all records for a

period in value order and identifying the values that represent:

• the top of the bottom 25% of the market – the lower quartile, and

• the bottom of the top 25% of the market – the upper quartile.

There are also a variety of measures used to express price movements. These include the quarterly change between quarterly medians and annual changes which may compare either one quarter with the same quarter in the previous year or a year-on-year change which compares annual medians. Annual medians are also used to calculate 5 and 10 year Average Annual Growth Rates which represent the compound growth rate over the respective period.

REIWA explanatory commentDuring the September 2015 quarter, REIWA has moved to a new data warehouse system. This has provided the opportunity to clean the data, enhance some of the analysis measures and overall improve the quality of our research data and analysis tools. As a result, there may be some slight differences in the figures from the previous quarter.

Specifically, with regards to average selling days and discounting measures, REIWA has improved the methodology for calculating these figures.

Overall, in terms of data quality, REIWA has reviewed how some transactions are classified by Landgate. In addition, REIWA now does not include off-market or non-armslength transactions.

ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

UnemploymentWA unemployment rate is 6.2% which is now above the national average of 5.6%.

The overall participation rate for WA continues to trend lower to currently sit at 66.8% for the month of September 2016.

Despite the negative figures in overall WA unemployment trends, sectors such as Agriculture remain strong drivers for labour growth. On the other hand, the recent down-turn in the mining and construction industries has seen job growth in the two sectors slow down over the last 12 months.

Net Overseas Migration WA (LHS) Net Interstate Migration WA (LHS) Natural Increase WA (LHS) Estimated Resident Population (RHS)

Source: ABS Cat No. 3101.0 PopulationWA continues to experience negative growth in interstate migration post the mining downturn as people continue to look for employment opportunities in the eastern states.

Net overseas migration into WA which has previously remained subdued has shown some positive signs during the March 2016 quarter.

However, WA population is still experiencing an overall positive growth, but only at 1.2% which is largely contributable to the natural increase in population. In contrast, the nation’s population growth remains at 1.4%. The state’s estimated overall population is approximately at 2.61 million.

RBA cash rate 1.50%

5.25%

Source: RBA Cat No. A2, F5 Interest Rates The RBA cash rate is currently at a historical low of 1.50%.

Banks continue to pass on the cash rate cut to borrowers, albeit marginally. The current standard variable home loan rate is currently sitting at 5.25%. However, the decline in the lending rates still lags the downward trend seen in the cash rate.

Firmer regulation by the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) in the form of tightening loan to valuation ratios (LVR) and increasing banks’ capital ratios ensures that banks are protected against potential mortgage losses.

InflationInflation is currently sitting at 1.3% (year to September 2016) which remains below the RBA’s target bandwidth of 2-3%. However, the latest figures have improved in comparison to the year to June figure of 1.0%.

Current estimates are for inflation to remain below two per cent until mid-2018. The new Governor of the Reserve Bank of Australia has indicated for inflation to reach the desired target “over time and gradually” in recent comments.
