The Western Australian property market is currently experiencing a unique phase of growth, driven by strong resource sector performance and increasing interstate migration.
Key Drivers of Growth
- Resource Sector Strength: With the mining sector booming, employment rates in WA are high, fueling demand for housing in both Perth and regional mining hubs.
- Lifestyle Appeal: Post-pandemic, many Australians are seeking the space and lifestyle that WA offers. The “West is Best” sentiment is attracting families from the East Coast.
- Housing Supply: While demand is high, supply remains tight, putting upward pressure on prices and rental yields.
What This Means for Buyers
For buyers, the key is preparation. Properties are moving quickly, often selling within days of listing. Having your finances pre-approved and knowing exactly what you want is crucial.
The Outlook for 2026
Experts predict continued moderate growth for the Perth market throughout 2026. While interest rates remain a factor, the underlying fundamentals of the WA economy provide a strong buffer.
