At a glance
- National home prices fell 0.3% in October in realestate.com.au’s series.[1]
What the report shows
The October report puts national prices 4.3% below their March peak and 1.9% lower year on year. Sydney recorded a 0.4% monthly fall; Adelaide’s 0.6% decline was the largest among the capitals.[1]
Regional prices slipped 0.1% during October but remained 3.1% above a year earlier. The report therefore describes different outcomes across locations rather than a uniform national adjustment.[1]

Why it matters
A price index describes a market sample. It cannot establish the current value of an individual home or guarantee the direction of its next sale price.
