In The Trenches

Perth’s property market has experienced extraordinary growth, but with listings rising and buyer activity beginning to slow, is the boom finally starting to cool?
 

In this episode, Perth real estate agent Prash Nayar joins us to break down the current state of the Perth property market, including housing supply, property prices, buyer confidence, negative gearing, interstate investors, population growth and the outlook for Western Australian real estate.
 

We discuss why the number of properties for sale has risen sharply, why previously crowded home opens are now attracting fewer buyers, and whether this changing market presents an opportunity for first-home buyers, homeowners and investors.
 

Prash also explains why he expects Perth property prices to move towards a more balanced market rather than experience a major downturn, and what buyers should consider when deciding whether to purchase now or wait.
 

We also explore the risks of becoming overleveraged, the potential consequences of negative gearing changes, rental affordability, housing demand, migration and the Perth suburbs and regional areas that may still offer strong long-term growth.
 

If you're interested in the Perth property market, Perth house prices, Western Australian real estate, property investing, first-home buying, housing affordability, negative gearing or the future of Perth property prices, this conversation provides practical insight into what may happen next.
