Designed by global architecture practice <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/woods-bagot">Woods Bagot</a>, long-term collaborators of the Coronation team, the project draws inspiration from the Sydney Blue Gum High Forest and the leafy character of the South Chatswood Heritage Conservation Area.

Aras Labutis, Head of Urban Transformation at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/coronation-property">Coronation Property</a>, said the project reflects a disciplined, collaborative approach to city shaping.&nbsp;

“Chatswood sits at an important junction between high-density commercial activity and established residential &nbsp;neighbourhoods," Labutis said.

"Our focus for Archer &amp; Albert was to manage that transition carefully, respecting what’s already there &nbsp;while contributing something new that feels deliberate and enduring."

Coronation receives green light for Archer & Albert apartments in Chatswood

Leading Sydney developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/deicorp">Deicorp</a>, in partnership with Metrics Credit Partners, has officially broken ground on its landmark $1.8 billion Kings Bay Village project in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/five-dock-nsw-2046">Five Dock</a>, marking the beginning of construction on one of the most significant urban renewal precincts within the Parramatta Road Corridor.

A sod-turning ceremony was held at the project site on Parramatta Road, with NSW Premier Chris Minns and NSW Planning Minister Paul Scully joining Deicorp Chairman Fouad Deiri OAM and Metrics CEO and Managing Partner Andrew Lockhart, to mark the significant milestone.

Located at 129-154 Parramatta Road, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/kings-bay-village-five-dock-53-75-queens-road-five-dock-nsw-2046">Kings Bay Village</a> will transform more than three hectares of underutilised land into a highly connected new neighbourhood comprising 1,185 homes, including 218 affordable dwellings for essential workers, alongside new retail, commercial, and community spaces.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146120 project_image_fid=356895]

Designed by award-winning architects <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/turner-studio">TURNER</a>, the precinct blends crafted brick architecture with a pedestrian-focused urban layout across six buildings of varying scale. The project will deliver 14,700sqm of retail and commercial space, 6,500sqm of public open space, and a new 2,290sqm landscaped park and civic plaza that will form the social heart of the community.

Kings Bay Village is positioned minutes from the future Five Dock Metro Station, supporting the NSW Government and City of Canada Bay Council’s shared ambition for a more connected, liveable and revitalised Parramatta Road Corridor. Deicorp will also contribute more than $80 million towards new and upgraded local infrastructure, including pedestrian laneways, an activated streetscape and significant public domain works.

Fouad Deiri OAM, Chairman of Deicorp, said Kings Bay Village represents a defining opportunity for Sydney’s Inner West.

&nbsp;“Today marks the beginning of a precinct that will deliver lasting benefits for the Five Dock community - new homes, new open spaces, and a vibrant mixed-use environment that brings people closer to transport, services and amenities,"&nbsp;Deiri says.

“We are proud to be delivering much-needed housing, including affordable homes for essential workers, in partnership with the NSW Government and the City of Canada Bay. Kings Bay Village is urban renewal at its best - thoughtful, connected and community-focused.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146120 project_image_fid=356894]

Metrics CEO and Managing Partner Andrew Lockhart said the company is proud to support more housing and infrastructure in a key Sydney corridor. 
&nbsp; 
“Metrics and Deicorp share a proven track record of delivering high-impact projects that align closely with the NSW Government’s housing and infrastructure priorities. Kings Bay Village marks our most significant Sydney development to date, offering quality homes, essential infrastructure, and dynamic public spaces.” 
&nbsp; 
“This project reflects our ongoing commitment to creating value by supporting economic growth, job creation, and delivering excellent outcomes for our investors,” he said.

With Kings Bay Village now underway, Deicorp’s pipeline of apartments under construction across Sydney has increased to 5,102. Kings Bay Village is scheduled for completion in Q2 of 2029.

When Antoinette Chan and her architect husband, Peter began casually searching for an investment property, they weren’t expecting it to evolve into a life-changing family decision.

But one visit to the display suite of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/abadeen-group">Abadeen</a>’s <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/buildings/koyo-crows-nest-1-11-rodborough-avenue-crows-nest-nsw-2065">KOYO</a> development in Crows Nest changed everything, and sparked a remarkable story of three generations choosing to live side by side in one of the suburb's most architecturally-striking new developments.

Antoinette, her mother Janet Khoo, and her sister, who is currently living in Singapore, each purchased an apartment in the same building, creating a rare and meaningful multi-generational living arrangement underpinned by modern design, community values, and premium convenience.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108800 project_image_fid=356083]

“It wasn’t planned,” says Antoinette, who purchased a three-bedroom garden apartment with her husband and teenage daughter. “Peter came across KOYO and encouraged me to visit because he had a lot of respect for Abadeen’s previous work. As soon as we saw it, we knew it wasn’t just an investment, this was a home.”

Shortly after, Antoinette suggested her mother, Janet Khoo, take a look at the same development. A long-time inner-city resident who had recently sold her property in The Rocks, Janet had experienced some health setbacks and was contemplating a move closer to her daughter.

“I walked into the display apartment, and it just felt right,” says Janet. “I didn’t look anywhere else. The space, the simplicity of the design, the light, everything gave me a sense of peace. It’s a new beginning, but it also feels like home.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108800 project_image_fid=356093]

In a stroke of serendipity, Janet selected the two-bedroom apartment next door to her daughter, completely unaware of Antoinette’s purchase. Around the same time, Antoinette’s sister, who resides in Singapore, viewed the property via a virtual tour and chose to buy the apartment directly above Janet’s.

“We were all drawn to KOYO individually, and it just happened that our homes ended up vertically stacked, ground, first, and second floor,” Antoinette laughs. “It was a coincidence, but also a sign. This is where we’re meant to be.”

Designed by celebrated architect <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/koichi-takada-architects">Koichi Takada</a>, KOYO delivered on all fronts for the Chan-Khoo family.

“Our garden apartment gives us the feel of a standalone home but with none of the maintenance,” says Antoinette. “All three bedrooms open onto a generous private garden, which is perfect for our dog Archie, and for entertaining. The open-plan layout and high ceilings make it feel airy, calm and luxurious.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108800 project_image_fid=356092]

For Janet, security and accessibility were top priorities, and KOYO offered the ideal balance.

“At my age, I didn’t want to be climbing stairs,” she explains. “The first-floor apartment opens directly to the garden, and the building is small, which gives it a more personal, village-like feel. Yet I’m just steps away from my daughter and granddaughter. That gives me so much peace of mind.”

The family also appreciated the thoughtful amenities that avoided the excesses of some larger developments.

“We didn’t want a complex with too many facilities we wouldn’t use,” explains Antoinette. “KOYO has everything we need, generous storage, secure parking, beautifully landscaped walkways, and a stunning rooftop terrace with BBQ facilities that feels serene rather than busy.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108800 project_image_fid=355428]

The location was another critical factor in the family’s decision. Though they had always lived closer to Sydney’s eastern suburbs, Antoinette says the transformation of Crows Nest was a revelation.

“When we returned from living overseas, we discovered Crows Nest had become this vibrant, walkable hub,” she says. “We love being able to stroll to cafés, restaurants, and shops on Willoughby Road. The new Metro makes the commute into the CBD effortless, and our daughter can walk to her school, it’s just next door."

Janet agree. “I was worried about giving up my inner-city lifestyle, but I’ve fallen in love with this area. It has everything I need, supermarkets, quiet streets, friendly faces, and it’s all a short walk away. I feel safe, independent, and connected.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108800 project_image_fid=356085]

While design and location were important, the family also credits their decision to Abadeen’s reputation and responsiveness. With decades of experience delivering high-quality residential projects, Abadeen’s track record helped build trust during a volatile market period.

“The waiting game was tough, especially after selling my old apartment,” says Janet. “But the Abadeen team kept me updated every step of the way. They were professional, courteous, and transparent.”

Antoinette said Peter works in property and had already heard of Abadeen. "The quality of their work really impressed us, and as the project neared completion, they went above and beyond to keep us informed and supported. That level of communication is rare.”

Only a handful of three-bedroom residences remain for sale, priced from $3.5 million.

Sydney-based developer Gold Partners Australia is making its move on the Gold Coast, launching what is one of the most affordable towers to the booming Broadbeach market.

Its <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/harmony-on-broadbeach-2797-gold-coast-highway-broadbeach-qld-4218">Harmony on Broadbeach</a> project, just 400m from the beach, has prices starting from $975,000 for its two-bedroom apartments that measure nearly 90 sqm internally.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113098 project_image_fid=355607]

There will be 113 two- and three-bedroom apartments spread out across the 33-storey tower on the 1,201 sqm site that will front First Avenue. Gold Partners Australia, which has delivered several major projects in Sydney's Norwest and has an active pipeline with projects in Hornsby and Carlingford, secured the block vacant, and want to start preliminary site works early next year through their in-house construction capability.

DBI Architects designed the tower with a four-level podium which will have an open-air swimming pool, sun deck, outdoor lounges, alfresco dining spaces, and a gym with adjoining yoga lawn. A hospitality venue will anchor the building at street level.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113098 project_image_fid=355611]

Olympus Property Group is selling Harmony on Broadbeach on behalf of Gold Partners Australia. Olympus Director Deanna Lockett says the project is resonating with everyone from locals, investors, those moving from interstate, and second home buyers from Brisbane.

"There's been nothing new come to the market in Broadbeach at this price point for nearly a year," Lockett recalls. "It hits the sweet spot of affordability, good sized apartments, in a great location."

Construction will commence in Q2 2026, and wrap up, all going well, by the end of 2028.

Display apartments play a crucial role in helping buyers imagine how a space will look and feel once complete.

At <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-albertine-by-mirvac-melbourne-31-queens-lane-melbourne-vic-3004">The Albertine</a> in Melbourne, development giant Mirvac has partnered with furniture maker and retailer MCM House to create a fully furnished, full-scale prototype that showcases the proportions, finishes, and design intent of the project’s three-bedroom residences.

As an added incentive, purchasers of any two- or three-bedroom apartment can receive up to $50,000 worth of MCM House furniture, allowing them to curate their new home with the same craftsmanship, contemporary design, and aesthetic showcased in the display apartment.

Adelaide

Renewal SA has recently announced its plans to purchase the former Adelaide Bus Station site on Franklin Street, which will be developed into a mixed-use site called Tapangka.

Tapangka, which is a Kaurna word that translates to journey, will aim to provide a new approach to city living, inspired by the journey of reconciliation, home ownership, sustainability, and collaboration between the city and the state.

The Adelaide City Council chose Renewal SA as the successful proponent of the 6,850 sqm site, with the group aiming to position the project as one of the most vibrant and inclusive residential developments and precincts in the state.

The project is set to deliver an unprecedented level of affordable housing in Adelaide's CBD, including a blend of long- and short-term housing options, contemporary commercial, civic, and retail spaces.

<img alt="Aerial image of the proposed Franklin Street site" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="ef320522-b33a-49f5-b751-cc6e7074ef5c" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-05-05%20at%2011.55.28%20am_0.png?VersionId=dExzJD.ilJsUcOitH5SUzlpYYsGMmUkT" />Aerial image of the proposed Franklin Street site. Credit: Renewal SA

Renewal SA’s Manager of Reconciliation and Cultural Heritage, Kiran Dixon said Tapangka sits on the land of the Tarndanyungga, the place of the red kangaroo dreaming.&nbsp;

“This link to heritage will be celebrated in every aspect of Tapangka's development, from it’s planning and design, to it’s ongoing cultural life,” Dixon said.

Woods Bagot were engaged to design the precinct, which will consist of two mixed-use towers with around 392 apartments, accommodating more than 1,000 residents. At least 137 of the apartments (35%) will be affordable, including 51 affordable sale apartments and 86 affordable rental apartments.

With the Tapangka precinct the first CBD location to feature the emerging build-to-rent apartment model, the development will also include a 208-key hotel.

In addition to the apartments and hotel, the precinct will feature a central civic building that will be a place of entertainment, culture, and community. The building will showcase the best of sustainable construction and target carbon neutrality precinct-wide.

Woods Bagot’s Alex Hall said Adelaide is ready for a bold new approach to city living.

“The main attraction of Tapangka will be a signature carbon-neutral civic building. This building will be a place of entertainment, culture and community, and will nourish surrounding business,” Hall said.&nbsp;

Tree-lined laneways or "eat streets" will spill out onto the footpaths between Franklin and Grote streets, offering a combination of casual eateries and sit-down restaurant options both day and night. These streets will be surrounded by a backdrop of living green walls that will provide shade and cooling and mitigate the impacts of the heat-island effect.

<img alt="Render the proposed Franklin Street site" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="3e493062-131b-4935-92ab-f5b87e8a215d" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-05-05%20at%2011.47.43%20am.png?VersionId=fxQTWTKiSwCmR8O2KqOcIiwqemQ.H.Tx" />Render the proposed "eat streets" within the Franklin Street site. Credit: Renewal SA

Renewal SA Chief Executive, Chris Menz said the site represents a significant economic opportunity for Adelaide and a chance to set a new benchmark for inner-city living.

“We have a target to deliver Adelaide’s first carbon neutral precinct, that will be focussed on connection, lifestyle, culture and growth for our city,” he said

“Tapangka will feature a diverse mix of long and short-term housing options. The precinct will also be a new place to do business, featuring a range of flexible commercial spaces, and crucially it will extend and compliment the Adelaide’s central market experience, and increase visitation to the city.”

The development will also feature extensive public art throughout Tapangka, celebrating the Kaurna culture, and a public open space owned by the City of Adelaide along Grote and Bowen streets will undergo a $1.2 million upgrade by the state as part of the development.

The multi-million-dollar development will become a significant jobs driver for South Australia, with more than 1,300 jobs expected to be generated during the construction period alone. The project will also contribute more than $161 million of Gross Value Add to the state.

Renewal SA has a proven track record of shaping cities and precincts, including urban infill redevelopment at Bowden and the adaptive reuse of the former Mitsubishi car plant in Adelaide's south to create Tonsley Innovation District.

Construction of the Tapangka precinct will be staged and is expected to commence in early 2026 with opportunities for designers, developers and builders to participate in the project. Project completion is anticipated by 2029.

Former Adelaide Bus Station earmarked for major mixed-use redevelopment 

Adelaide has continued to lead the property bounce back with the house price fall expected in Sydney and Melbourne not reaching the South Australian capital.

Adelaide dwelling prices could rise by up to eight per cent growth, SQM Research&rsquo;s&nbsp;Boom and Bust&nbsp;report predicted last November.

Units are expected to yield better results than homes this year, as affordability issues restrict many buyers from entering the property market.

Nonetheless, interstate investor interest has continued, especially as Adelaide rose to be the third most liveable city in the world according to the latest Economist Intelligence Unit&rsquo;s survey.

Urban has wrapped the best apartments on offer across South Australia&#39;s capital.

1. Quayview on Adelphi, Glenelg North 
Developer: Barrio Developments

Offering a collection of 44 apartments, Quayview on Adelphi delivers a collection of 21 unique floorplans and views, catering for every kind of lifestyle.

New apartments in the Festival State: The top five off the plan apartments for sale in Adelaide 

EXPERT OBSERVER

Adelaide is the best story in Australian real estate that never gets told. It&rsquo;s our most under-rated market and one that is delivering big time to those smart enough to see its potential.

For any investor who likes great value for money, high rental yields driven by ultra-low vacancy rates and great potential for growth underpinned by a rising economy, then Adelaide needs to be on their list of prime considerations.

My latest quarterly survey of sales activity and prices confirms that Adelaide is the big improver among the city markets. The previous quarterly survey found a record number of rising markets, but this new survey has topped that by a big margin.

Two-thirds of suburbs across the Adelaide metropolitan area now have rising sales activity. The number of rising markets identified in my five most recent quarterly surveys have been 52 62 93 104 125.

The continued rise of the Adelaide market has been led by several municipalities which increased the number of rising suburbs in this survey: Charles Sturt, Campbelltown, Tea Tree Gully, Marion, Onkaparinga, Mitcham, Holdfast Bay and Playford.

But the leading LGA continues to be Port Adelaide Enfield, which has 14 suburbs with rising sales activity, including Blair Athol, Broadview, Croydon Park, Greenacres, Klemzig, North Haven, Windsor Gardens and Royal Park.

Close behind is the City of Marion, where the number of rising suburbs has increased from 8 to 13 in this latest survey. Growth markets include Park Holme, Plympton Park, Glengowrie, Dover Gardens, Mitchell Park and Morphettville.

Another big improver is Charles Sturt, where the number of upwardly-mobile suburbs has jumped from 6 to 12.&nbsp; Tea Tree Gully has almost matched that, with 11 rising suburbs, compared to 6 three months ago.

The LGA of Onkaparinga in the far south of Adelaide continues to feature, with 10 suburbs with improving sales activity, led by Happy Valley with quarterly sales of 38 54 60 79.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6082 project_image_fid=37152]

There is growing demand in the affordable regions in Adelaide&rsquo;s north: the Playford LGA has rising sales activity in 12 of its 13 suburbs, while nearby Salisbury has 9 rising suburbs.

In the Playford LGA, quarterly sales in Andrews Farm have been 42 54 63 88 while Blakeview has recorded 38 46 49 48 54 67. In the Salisbury LGA, Mawson Lakes has recorded 67 80 87 115 122 and Paralowie has done 41 72 62 80 101.

Other improvers include the LGAs of Campbelltown (7 growth suburbs), Burnside (5), Holdfast Bay (5) and Mitcham (7). In the suburb of Campbelltown, quarterly sales have been 56 60 66 66 86 80 97, while in Somerton Park in Holdfast Bay sales have been 31 40 41 45 59.

Overall, there are 12 municipalities across the Adelaide metro area with at least five growth suburbs.

Prices in Adelaide have responded to the steady uplift in the number of rising suburbs, with 90% of locations across the city recording increases in their median house prices over the past 12 months. A similar number have risen in the most recent quarter.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27695 project_image_fid=133698]

The most prolific municipality for price growth is the Onkaparinga LGA, noted earlier as an area with growth in the number of suburbs with rising activity: 12 suburbs in this LGA have delivered double-digit growth in their median house prices, led by Seaford (up 19% to $420,000) and Huntfield Heights (up 17% to $335,000). Most of these growth markets have median house prices below $450,000.

The Port Adelaide-Enfield, the leading LGA for the number of rising suburbs based on sales activity, is also seeing strong growth in median prices. Dernancourt ($530,000) and Largs Bay ($655,000) have both increased 18%, while Largs North ($515,000) has grown 17% and Kilburn ($475,000) 16%.

Charles Sturt, noted earlier as an LGA where the number of rising markets has doubled, has good price growth, headed by Henley Beach South (up 20% to $1,060,000), Brompton (up 18% to $595,000) and Grange (up 16% to $830,000).

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27233 project_image_fid=80673]

Suburbs with strong price uplift are distributed right across the Adelaide metropolitan area. Notable performance has occurred in Seacliff (Holdfast Bay), up 25% to $865,000; Toorak Gardens (Burnside), up 23% to $1,600,000; Craigburn Farm (Mitcham), up 22% to $860,000; Lockleys (West Torrens), up 24% to $810,000; and Fullarton (Unley), up 21% to $1,105,000).

In the cheaper areas of the city, Salisbury Downs ($355,000), Salisbury Heights ($455,000), Elizabeth Downs ($210,000) and Munno Para ($295,000) have all risen 16-17%.

But the No.1 suburb for annual growth in median house prices is Walkerville, which has increased 31% to $1,490,000.

Plans have been unveiled to build Adelaide&rsquo;s tallest tower behind the Freemasons Hall.

A 160m-high tower is proposed for North Terrace.

The $120 million proposal includes a mix of hotel, student accommodation, office and hospitality spaces.

The city&rsquo;s Freemasons branch are considering the proposal which would raise funds for repairs to their 1920s heritage-listed building.

The Adelaide Advertiser advised a joint-venture partner was likely to be sought.

It has been estimated around $9 million is needed for rectifications.

The proposal includes 200 hotel rooms and 204 student accommodation beds across at least 33 storeys inspired by the architectural principle of Entasis.

Adelaide housing market update: Tim Lawless

<html><body>
EXPERT OBSERVER
Adelaide is challenging Canberra as the most consistent market in capital city Australia. It keeps delivering good sales activity and above-average results on house prices – and continues to be our most under-rated market.
You’d never know any of this, as real estate consumers, because of the way mainstream media reports real estate – a focus on median price data to the exclusion of all other market barometers, sweeping generalisations which often discuss Australia as a single market, an obsession with Sydney and Melbourne as the only markets of importance, an annoying tendency to zero in on negatives, and a host of other problems.
Media seldom bothers to discuss Adelaide and when it gets the occasional brief mention it’s usually a generalised “Adelaide prices grew only 1% in the past year” or “the median house price for Adelaide fell 0.3% in the latest quarter”.
This tells us nothing of value – and disguises the multiplicity of scenarios playing out in the markets of the South Australia capital city.
So, for something with a little more depth, that tells you something that actually has value, consider the following:
In the five years Hotspotting has been conducting quarterly surveys of sales activity and price trends, Adelaide has never delivered a poor result. Most cities have had peaks and troughs in that time, but Adelaide just keeps on producing steady markets with consistent demand. 
Seven out of ten Adelaide suburbs have experienced growth in their median house prices in the past 12 months, many of them with rises above 5%. 
The list of suburbs with growth above 15% is dominated by top-end locations, a positive sign for the market overall, which we believe is poised for a significant growth phase.
Hotspotting’s Winter survey has identified 64 Adelaide suburbs with rising sales momentum, the second highest quarterly result for the city since we started the surveys. Over the past couple of years, the number of growth suburbs has been 45, 58, 61, 71, 60, 62 and 64.
Adelaide continues to rank well ahead of Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, as well as the recovering Perth market, in terms of the number of growth suburbs – and ahead of most state regional jurisdictions (where many of the strong growth markets are found at present).
There are 10 Local Government Areas across the Adelaide metropolitan area with three or more suburbs with upwardly-mobile markets.
The Marion LGA, a middle-market area in the south-west of Adelaide which has been a market leader for the past 18 months, is once again a standout – one that ranks nationally. It has nine suburbs with rising sales patterns, including Ascot Park, Edwardstown, Glengowrie, Hallett Cove, Marion, O’Halloran Hill and Seacombe Gardens.
The Charles Sturt LGA, which extends north-west from central Adelaide out to the beach areas, is close behind with eight rising suburbs. They include inner-city Brompton (where quarterly sales have been 23, 32, 38 and 50) as well as middle-market suburbs like Findon, Seaton, Flinders Park (quarterly sales 22, 25, 25, 32, 35 and 38), Woodville South and Fulham Gardens. Henley Beach and West Beach also have growth momentum.
Port Adelaide Enfield continues to be a leading precinct, with seven growth suburbs including Croydon Park, Dernancourt, Greenacres, North Haven, Rosewater and Royal Park.
Onkaparinga, which always features in our Adelaide analysis, also has seven suburbs with growth momentum – including Aldinga Beach (where quarterly sales have been 54, 63, 67 and 70), Christies Beach, Hackham, Happy Valley, Old Reynella and Seaford.
Six municipalities have between three and five rising markets each: the Burnside, Holdfast Bay, Mitcham, Salisbury, Unley and West Torrens LGAs.
While sources such as CoreLogic and SQM Research often report annual growth of only 1-2% in Adelaide house prices, these generalised figures disguise individual areas which have done better. Our suburb-by-suburb analysis shows that 70% of Adelaide suburbs have median house prices higher than a year ago - and almost half of those have grown by more than 5%.
Of the 189 Adelaide suburban markets analysed, 54 have grown 5% or more and 64 have increased by less than 5%. There are only 17 suburbs in the Adelaide metropolitan area where median house prices have fallen by more than 5%.
Many of the suburbs with the highest annual growth are towards the upper end of the Adelaide market, headed by North Adelaide (up 29% to $1,075,000), Somerton Park (up 27% to $955,000), Unley (up 14% to $990,000) and Henley Beach South (up 15% to $985,000). Aldgate and Beulah Park, with median house prices in the $800,000s, have both risen 15-16% in the past 12 months.
But there is strong growth also in other price ranges, including Mansfield Park (up 20% to $405,000), Elizabeth North (up 18% to $180,000), Underdale (up 16% to $665,000) and Broadview (up 15% to $570,000).

Adelaide challenging Canberra as Australia's most consistent property market: Hotspotting's Terry Ryder

<html><body>
George J Nowak, of the Charterhill Group, has filed for bankruptcy after the Federal Court in Adelaide froze his assets and those of his wife back in February.
At the time, the <a href="/news/federal-court-freezes-assets-of-charterhills-george-nowak">court had ordered the surrender of their passports, and restricted their travel outside of the country</a>, while ASIC investigated the collapse of the Charterhill Group.
The Charterhill Group specialized in assisting clients to invest in property with their SMSFs. This left nearly $6 million of super at risk.
Macks Advisory’s Peter Ivan Macks has been appointed as Nowak’s trustee, and he has advised that the bankruptcy came following an appointment of liquidators to companies within the Charterhill Group Lending Solutions International Pty Ltd and Nova Real Estate Pty Ltd.
Nowak, who lodged a statement of affairs with the trustee, listed 31 companies he was director and/or shareholder of.
The statement of affairs was signed and dated 30 June 2014, and lodged with the Debtor's Petition on the same day. The Debtor's Petition was accepted on 2 July 2014.
It is noted that unsecured creditors totals approximately $7 million. This includes a claim in his estate, brought by Nova Real Estate’s liquidators – of approximately $6 million.
Investigations are underway, but return to creditors at this stage is unlikely.
The following companies in the Charterhill Group were placed under external control in February:
•    Lending Solutions International Pty Ltd – liquidators appointed (Andrew Heard and Anthony Phillips of Heard Phillips)
•    Nova Real Estate Pty Ltd – external administrators appointed (Andrew Heard and Anthony Phillips of Heard Phillips)
•    EJ Property Developments Pty Ltd – receivers and managers appointed (Michael Basedow and Leigh Prior of Pitcher Partners)
•    Financial Wellness Pty Ltd – receivers and managers appointed (Michael Basedow and Leigh Prior of Pitcher Partners).
