A significant drop in house prices in Australia is expected to disclose sooner than expected under studied forecasting based on the Reserve Bank of Australia’s current shrinking cycle.
While the Commonwealth Bank of Australia in June forecast home prices would fall nationwide by about 15% in the subsequent 18 months, unexpected reasons had prompted changes in the predicted timeline.
“We have not changed our anticipation that national dwelling prices will fall from top to trough by around 15 per cent. But we now see that trench reached sooner given prices are falling at a somewhat quicker pace than we expected,” a report from the bank published last Friday specified.
Given the RBA was now predictable to cut the cash rate by 50 basis points in the second half of next year, CBA said house prices were likely to begin rising modestly in late 2023.
