Rapid Population Growth
Australia has experienced a notable inflation in population, primarily driven by a high rate of net overseas migration. As of March 2024, the nation's population was around 27,122,411, marking an increase of 615,300 individuals from the prior year, which corresponds to a 2.3% growth rate. This inflating population is comparable to merging the populations of Canberra and Hobart in a single year. The rapid surge in population has driven demand in various real estate sectors. The real estate market, for example, has faced challenges, as increased competition for residences has led to elevated property values and rental costs. The rising demand has also spurred new home construction, as builders and investors aim to accommodate the expanding population. In addition, the population growth has positively impacted the commercial real estate industry. As more people move to Australia, there is escalated demand for retail outlets, office complexes, and industrial parks to accommodate the growing consumer market and labor force. This demand has drawn both local and foreign investors looking to capitalize on Australia's growing markets.
Favorable Government Policies
Public policy greatly influences the environment of real estate investments in Australia. Monetary policy by the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA), especially the changes in the cash rate, has a direct influence on the cost of borrowing for both the investors and buyers of homes. In February 2025, the RBA lowered the cash rate by 0.25 percentage points to 4.1%, eased the burden of those who have mortgages, and improved buyer confidence. This step is also likely to stabilize housing prices and promote investment in the real estate sector. The demand for real estate is greatly influenced by the immigration policy of the government. The Albanese government recognized that its ambitious immigration goal of 1.2 million individuals over three years has helped fuel the housing unaffordability problem, especially for young Australians. Therefore, measures have been established to control foreign investment in homes in order to harmonize foreign capital inflows with the need for housing to remain affordable for the local residents. Tax policy, including negative gearing and exceptions of capital gains tax, also impacts the investment decision. These steps can become more favorable for investing in property by allowing losses to be offset against taxable income, thus making it more favorable for domestic and foreign investors to invest funds in the Australian real estate sector.
