Perth’s new apartment market recorded its strongest quarter of sales since Q4 2021, with 412 apartments sold in Q1 2026 and a record quarterly sold value of $537 million, according to Urbis’ latest Apartment Essentials results.

Urbis said the March quarter result reflects strong, highly product‑specific demand across both ends of the market, from more attainable projects delivering at scale, through to premium stock being absorbed by equity‑rich downsizers.&nbsp;

David Cresp, Partner at Urbis, said the key story in Perth is not demand, it is the market’s ability to convert demand into delivered housing.&nbsp;

“This is the strongest sales quarter since Q4 2021, and it reinforces that demand in Perth is real and it’s local,” David Cresp said. “But the task now is delivery, turning that demand into projects that can actually be built and completed.”&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=110291 project_image_fid=302785]

<h2>Affordable product leads, premium demand remains resilient</h2>

Sales in Q1 were led by more affordable projects, with The Boulevard (SKS Group) recording 115 sales in the quarter, the presentation noting this is only the second time a single project has surpassed 100 quarterly sales. The project was able to offer more affordable housing product right next to a train station.&nbsp;

Palmyra West (Finbar) also delivered strong results with 28 sales in Q1, following 84 sales in Q4, with an average price of under $800,000, underscoring depth of demand for well‑located, attainable new stock.&nbsp;

At the premium end, Urbis said downsizer demand is continuing, with the results highlighting Romeo (Applecross, Finbar) recording 75 sales and reaching almost 50% sold in one quarter.

Jual (Shenton Park, Celsius Property) also posted a strong quarter with 28 sales, reaching 39% sold in one quarter.

Urbis noted that Perth apartment demand is not speculative, not investor‑led, and not uniform, describing it as localised, often equity‑driven and highly product‑specific, a pattern reflected in the polarisation between strong “attainable” performers and premium downsizer product.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=148957 project_image_fid=364102]

<h2>Prices underpinned by costs, and the delivery risk is growing</h2>

Urbis said pricing pressure is cost not demand‑driven: construction costs and delivery risk are now a central constraint, with the results noting build costs remain elevated and volatile, and that energy, fuel and labour uncertainty weigh on feasibility.

David Cresp said a growing challenge for private Build‑to‑Sell developers is simply securing a builder in the current environment.

“Developers are really feeling the pressure from a building market that was operating at capacity and securing a builder is challenging,” David Cresp said, adding that even where a builder can be secured, “trying to get to the price that makes the development financially viable is incredibly challenging in the current market.”&nbsp;

Urbis’ broader WA commentary also notes that industry remains at or above capacity with lot and housing creation, and that many builders are limiting new sales to manage stretched workforces and fixed‑price contract pressures, conditions that flow directly into apartment feasibility and delivery timing.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108869 project_image_fid=317905]

<h2>Supply: improving later, but still constrained, and Perth lags eastern benchmarks</h2>

While near‑term supply remains constrained, Urbis’ forecast shows completions lifting “Supply is forecast to be back above 1,500 apartments per annum for the first time since 2019”, with 1,775 completions forecast for 2026, and volumes remaining above that level over the following years.&nbsp;

Looking further ahead, completions are forecast to reach 2,500 in 2028, with the report noting 32% of that total is social/affordable, reflecting the role of government‑supported delivery in rebuilding the pipeline.&nbsp;

However, Urbis said Perth remains behind comparable markets on pipeline scale. In a national comparison of projects under construction, the report shows under construction Perth Build‑to‑Sell (BTS) at 3,446 apartments versus the Gold Coast at 7,922. Mr Cresp said “The challenge for Perth is how to we grow the delivery pipeline”.

Urbis’ conclusion is that Perth’s market is increasingly defined by product discipline and delivery certainty, with the research identifying “delivery certainty is key” and calling out builder risk and procurement models as core success factors, alongside “timing and staging”.&nbsp;

Perth apartment sales hit strongest pace since late 2021 as builder capacity tightens

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/sammut-developments">Sammut Group</a> has secured development approval for its latest Brisbane apartment project, marking the Sydney developer’s next step in expanding its Queensland pipeline following the success of its debut Gold Coast development, Coast.

The approved project at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/44-glen-road-toowong-qld-4066">44 Glen Road, </a><a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/toowong-qld-4066">Toowong</a> will deliver a 15-storey riverfront apartment building with 42 residences, significantly increasing the scale of the site’s previous approval for a smaller luxury scheme. Designed by Bureau^proberts, the development will comprise a mix of predominantly four-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments positioned to maximise Brisbane River and city views.

Sammut Director Julian Sammut said the group had been actively searching Brisbane for several years before identifying Toowong as the right fit.

“Brisbane was the right step for Sammut,” Sammut said.

“With the success of Coast we thought we should definitely look to do more in Queensland alone. We then pushed up to look at Brisbane. We've been looking for I'd say two to three years actually and it was hard to find the right location.”

<img alt="Sammut makes Brisbane apartment play" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/f_auto,c_limit,w_1440,q_75/https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/field/image/Screenshot%202025-12-23%20at%203.27.14%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=dYAVIL7qdcGA8ojvkslSrLjczXFejSSx" />

Sammut said suburbs including New Farm and Teneriffe were considered before the group ultimately focused on Toowong due to its strong downsizer demographic and limited supply of developable riverfront land.

The site was acquired off-market after what Sammut described as a lengthy negotiation and planning process, with the developer pursuing an uplift to the original approval.

“We are DA approved now which is very exciting,” Sammut said.

“We've had our change approval come through and we've obviously doubled the height, 15 storeys plus rooftop. We've got 42 amazing apartments that are going to be coming to market soon.”

<img alt="Sammut makes Brisbane apartment play" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,dpr_2.0,q_auto:good/https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-12-23%20at%203.27.26%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=ohkRkY0dIZlqdfME2EZePsCQavRiBadE" />

Bureau^proberts said the design responds to Toowong’s evolving urban character, balancing contemporary apartment living with the area’s established residential identity.

“A place where traditional Queensland living has taken place for centuries; Toowong is seeing a shift of contemporary influence, commercial and retail hubs mixed with well-considered residential offerings – all the while maintaining its character and charm,” the architect noted in planning documents submitted to Brisbane City Council.

The architecture practice said the project’s form was shaped by its riverfront setting, flood considerations, neighbouring building scales, and view corridors.

“They said the mix of four and two-bedroom apartments capture the ‘fundamental qualities of Queenslander living,’ translated into the context of a contemporary subtropical building.”

The development sits just off Coronation Drive within walking distance of Toowong’s retail precinct and the upgraded Regatta ferry terminal, while also benefiting from proximity to the incoming green bridge connection to West End. Sammut said the accessibility and amenity offering were central to the site’s appeal.

The approval adds to growing residential activity along the Toowong riverfront, joining nearby projects including Consolidated Properties’ Monarch Residences and Spyre Group’s ARC Residences.

Sammut secures approval for debut Brisbane apartment development in Toowong

Developer Lanevick is heading back into Sydney’s apartment market after focusing more heavily on the luxury townhouse and terrace sector in recent years.

Lanevick, founded and directed by Steve Maroun, is expecting to receive approval in the coming months for a new apartment development in Gladesville, with the aim to launch it to the market later this year.

The 51-apartment project, designed by Studio Johnston, will comprise a mix of one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments positioned toward the Hunters Hill downsizer market.

“Traditionally it’s been difficult for people in that market to downsize because there just hasn’t been the right product available,” Maroun said.

“We’re targeting buyers who might have 30 to 40 per cent of their house value sitting in the bank after downsizing.

“They still want good spacious entertaining areas, they still want quality design, but they also want flexibility and the ability to enjoy life a bit more after working hard for a long time.”

The project sits near Boronia Park and within close proximity to the Parramatta River foreshore, an area Maroun says offers more of a Hunters Hill lifestyle than a traditional apartment precinct.

“From a lifestyle perspective, it’s really more Hunters Hill than Gladesville,” Maroun said. “You’re close to the foreshore, close to parklands, and still connected back into the village precinct.”

From level four and above, apartments will capture water views&nbsp;toward Sydney Harbour. Communal amenity will include rooftop entertaining areas, wellness spaces, and a gym tailored toward owner-occupier buyers.

“We’ve really designed these apartments around that buyer coming from the Hunters Hill LGA and what they’re actually looking for in their next chapter.”

The proposed development has also been designed to respond to the changing character of the broader Gladesville town centre, where a growing number of mixed-use and residential proposals are expected to emerge over the coming years.

“Gladesville presented a rare opportunity to deliver a genuinely design-led residential project within an evolving lifestyle precinct, just moments from the growing Gladesville town centre, and we’ve approached the project with a strong focus on architecture, liveability and long-term community value,” Maroun said.

Maroun said Lanevick saw a first-mover advantage within the precinct as planning controls continue to evolve to accommodate greater housing density.

“We think there’s a real opportunity there that hasn’t really been serviced properly yet,” he said.

“There’s going to be a broader evolution of the whole Gladesville village precinct over time, particularly with more activation and mixed-use outcomes.”

The Venus Street proposal will include a commercial and retail component at ground level designed to contribute to that evolving streetscape activation.

“A big part of the thinking was how do you activate that area properly and create more vibrancy and amenity, which is what Hunters Hill has been looking for,” Maroun said.

Lanevick’s focus since 2020 has largely been on smaller-scale luxury townhouse and terrace developments. The developer recently completed Royale Randwick, also designed by Studio Johnston, where prices reached $3.65 million. The project was featured in the UDIA NSW 2026 Professional Development Prospectus and was also named a finalist for Development of the Year.

Lanevick to cater for Hunters Hill downsizers with new Gladesville apartment development

Property developer One Living, backed by former Macquarie banker turned investment manager Chris Green’s investment firm, has unveiled plans to bring more institutional capital into housing to help address the national supply crisis.

The New York-based investor has focused his firm, GreenPoint Partners, on addressing the supply shortage hitting middle market housing in Australia.

It is backing the new One Living business to develop more than 1000 units along the eastern seaboard. The new firm is starting with a development on Mona Vale Road, on the border of Mona Vale and Pymble, in Sydney’s Northern Beaches, with around 140 apartments planned. They are eyeing off more sites across the city.

With cost pressures rising in the industry, One Living’s model is to be a vertically integrated developer-builder, so it can respond directly to the housing gap by removing the cost inefficiencies embedded in traditional residential delivery.

“We are building a platform designed to operate at scale and starting in a market where there’s a clear need for quality, attainable housing,” One Living joint managing director Joseph Scuderi said.

“It’s that missing middle – it’s that attainable end of housing… that’s what most Australians invest into and what Australians can actually afford.”

<img alt="Mona Vale" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="798dfa93-4941-4db6-a696-31e9dc18e81c" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-05-28%20at%202.31.50%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=mKBqi5C_DmeiXS.AtJkcR8LQIxqCqmFi" />

GreenPoint Partners brings years of experience assembling and scaling real estate operating businesses across major markets. And Green sees a big opportunity in Australia.

“For its size, sophistication and importance to the community, Australia’s living sector has remained largely under-institutionalised, which represents significant opportunity,” Green said. “GreenPoint identified that gap, assembled the right team, and is backing One Living to build a platform that is aligned to market needs.”

Green said being a builder-developer would give the company the capacity and flexibility it required to deliver reasonably-priced homes.

“We want it to be at that attainable level; not super high end luxury but at that attainable level,” he said.

<img alt="Mona Vale" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="74a5344a-4b26-4d4a-ada3-056b1220be77" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-05-28%20at%202.32.15%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=vY8hXHO4reBMdO8ZXMWCNtGZJofUPQ3j" />

&nbsp;

One Living will undertake a component of affordable housing in its schemes, which it will own and operate, and it could also run build-to-rent on some sites.

Green praised local policy settings.

“The NSW government is being very supportive, strategic and pragmatic in terms of how do we generate more supply of housing,” he said. “We think it’s actually positive for development and the bit that’s been lacking at that attainable level is that it’s lots of relatively small private developers, whereas we want to create an institutional platform.”

One Living is also&nbsp;looking at high-density projects and could take on more institutional funding in the future.

“The way we will be able to achieve economies of scale is through size,” Green added.

One Living enters Sydney's new apartment market with Northern Beaches site acquisition

It's been several years since there's been an opportunity to buy a brand new townhome in Melbourne's coastal suburb of Mordialloc. Even apartment developments in recent times have been few and far between in the area.

Local developer LDS Property identified the gap in new housing, securing a site on White Street, directly opposite&nbsp;Woodlands Golf Club Mordialloc. They've recently launched&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-townhouses/wm-residences-mordialloc-102-white-street-mordialloc-vic-3195">WM Residences</a>, just 13 townhouses which they have already started building.

Projects by Buxton Director Heath Thompson, who is selling WM Residences, says the townhouses x that perfect middle ground be

"Mordialloc residents have had limited options to downsize within the suburb, often forcing them to look elsewhere despite long-standing ties to the area," Thompson says.

"With very little comparable new supply coming to market, projects like WM Residences are well placed, particularly as buyers look to capitalise on current conditions amid constrained supply."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134646 project_image_fid=6109]

The development, designed by regarded architecture firm&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/ewert-leaf">Ewert Leaf</a>,&nbsp;adopts a deliberately restrained architectural approach, focusing on simplicity, durability and liveability rather than overt design gestures.

The boutique scale is central to the offering. With only 13 three-bedroom residences, each home is configured to prioritise functional layouts and everyday use, supported by private terraces and secure two-car garages.

Ewert Leaf’s design response leans into a calm, neutral material palette. Interiors are defined by oak flooring, white walls and soft finishes, creating a consistent and understated backdrop. The approach avoids trend-driven detailing in favour of longevity, with an emphasis on natural light and spatial clarity.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134646 project_image_fid=6110]

Beyond aesthetics, the homes are designed to meet contemporary performance expectations. Each residence targets a minimum 6-star energy rating, incorporating double glazing, comprehensive insulation and all-electric Bosch appliances.

The project’s location supports a walkable coastal lifestyle, sitting within close proximity to Mordialloc’s foreshore, Main Street retail strip and the train station. Local cafés and dining venues, including Suburbia Deli and Hendriks Café, are within a short walk, reinforcing the area’s established neighbourhood character.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134646 project_image_fid=6116]

While <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/mordialloc-vic-3195">Mordialloc</a> is often defined by its beach and pier, the project taps into other areas of day to day living, offering easy access to local food, casual dining and transport, rather than positioning itself purely as a lifestyle retreat.

WM Residences reflects a continued trend across Melbourne’s coastal suburbs towards smaller-scale, design-led townhouse developments, particularly on infill sites where proximity to amenity is already established.

With construction commenced prior to its market entry, the project aligns with a growing preference among buyers for developments with visible progress and defined delivery timeframes.

Differentiating itself from the larger projects on the market in the area, the Riva Ridge-developed Soul Hampton offers just eight apartments across the site.

The group engaged locals, Finnis Architecture and Interiors to design the building, with the apartments incorporating natural stone and veneer timber panelling, packed with fine finishes and Gaggenau appliances

[smartcode_project:default project_id=93042 project_image_fid=197035]

With a focus on maximising space, the project delivers a mix of two and three-bedroom apartments, ranging from 120 sqm to 181 sqm.&nbsp;

With a majority of the residences already sold, Noorden Sales Agent, David Lamond highlighted the limited opportunity in the sought-after project, with just two residences remaining.&nbsp;

“The two-bedroom apartment is possibly the largest two-bed option available in Hampton, which just adds to the project, with its already amazing location,” Lamond said.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=93042 project_image_fid=197392]

Starting from $1,595,000, the 143 sqm two-bedroom apartment finds its home on level one of Soul, appointed with a large and luxurious floorplan.&nbsp;

A ground floor apartment is also up for grabs, spanning 231 sqm, with a price tag of $1,925,000.&nbsp;

The three-bedroom offering benefits from an expansive landscaped courtyard, with the south-facing area also including an alfresco dining space.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=93042 project_image_fid=193034]

With two-bathrooms and two car spaces, both of the apartments also come with a storage room in the basement.&nbsp;

A look into the remaining apartments at Soul Hampton

Downsizers have swarmed to the latest luxury apartment development in Melbourne's Bayside Brighton, 32 Black Street.

The latest buyer was a downsizer who secured a ground floor apartment, due to the near 120 sqm of living space in the two-bedroom apartment with its own north-facing courtyard, which adds a further 50 sqm to the apartment.

Exclusive selling agent David Lamond from Noorden said the buyer wanted to remain in the Brighton area, but only needed a two-bedroom apartment, while a third multi-purpose room offered the flexibility of an office space.

Lamond said ultimately 32 Black Street offers buyers the security and luxury they're seeking in an apartment, located in one of Melbourne's most sought-after postcodes.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108268 project_image_fid=199294]

The two biggest drivers for buyers at 32 Black is the estimated completion date, slated to be early next year, and the striking architectural detailing of the project.

"The fact completion is potentially only six months or so away, buyers are starting to think about how they can arrange their lives and transition from their larger home into a new apartment, whether it be delayed settlement deals, or priming their home for sale in the busy spring selling season," Lamond says.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108268 project_image_fid=199295]

"There's also the striking architectural design by Architecture Works," Lamond added.

"The intricate detail on the building's facade and scaling ceilings creates a delightful sense of scale that does not sacrifice the all-important details.

“Street appeal like this does not come around too often, and not only will it look great on the day it is completed, it's timeless design will ensure that the building will never look like it has come from a bygone era, helping to ensure your brand new boutique residence will stand the test of time.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108268 project_image_fid=199301]

The two-bedroom apartments with home office range from $1,895,000 for the 133 sqm apartments, and move upwards as the apartments get bigger. Still under $2 million is a 177 sqm apartment, priced at $1,995,000.

The largest apartment, spanning 207 sqm, is asking $2.3 million.

Why downsizers are favouring 32 Black Street, Brighton apartments

In one of Melbourne’s most highly regarded Bayside suburbs, 32 Black Street delivers a striking new addition to the heart of Brighton.

A product of a familiar partnership between two Melbourne developers and builders, Thomas Constructions and QB Constructions, 32 Black St will add to a growing list the pair have collaborated on together.

With a concept developed and designed by the locals architecture firm&nbsp;Architecture Works, the project is home to just eight apartments, each with their own unique and luxurious interiors.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108268 project_image_fid=199297]

32 Black Street has been designed with an emphasis on space and light, with spacious living areas transitioning seamlessly into other areas of the apartments.

A full Miele appliance package with an integrated fridge-freezer and induction cooktop is standard in each home, along with stone bench-tops, heated bathroom floors and designer joinery.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108268 project_image_fid=199297]

Each apartment also comes complete with two secure underground parking spaces.

The built form of 32 Black St features a sleek, modern design with a myriad of glass and metal detailing, with the developers noting the most distinguishing feature as the picturesque façade.

Facing north, the building has been designed to soak in the natural light that will flood through, with expansive windows throughout, as well as through the adjoining balconies, enveloped in lush greenery, softening the form.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108268 project_image_fid=199297]

The detail on the building's facade along with the scaled ceilings create a sense of scale that don’t sacrifice the details.

Situated in one of the most desirable locations in Brighton, 32 Black St also sits just steps from an array of exclusive boutiques and restaurants, enabling the project to suit a range of owner-occupiers, no matter the lifestyle.

New boutique Brighton apartments, 32 Black Street, hit the market

The Melbourne property developer and construction firm BCentral are rubber-stamping their reputation of delivering what they promised when selling their off the plan apartment developments.

They recently completed&nbsp;ALIA in the bayside McKinnon area, and the development, particularly the kitchen, look identical to the renders offered to buyers when the sales launched last year.

Below is an example of how alike the render and finished product of the kitchen are,&nbsp;created by the interior design studio ZUNICA.

<figure><img alt="" class="image-article-full-width-580px" height="580" src="/s3/files/styles/article_full_width_580px/public/pictures/article-images/alia-kitchen.jpg?itok=b-B33IPG" width="580" />

ALIA was a collaborative effort by ZUNICA, Perkins Architects, and Bruce Henderson Architects.&nbsp;

Prior to the launch of the apartments last year, the full-floor penthouse sold for nearly $2 million, setting a suburb record for an apartment. A number of the sub-penthouses sold for over $1 million.

BCentral founder Tal Goldman told Urban when sales launched that ALIA was perfect for anyone searching for a premium home&nbsp;with&nbsp;world-class amenity.

<figure><img alt="" class="image-article-full-width-580px" height="580" src="/s3/files/styles/article_full_width_580px/public/pictures/article-images/aliarender-vs-reality-portraitstack.jpg?itok=eT5nvRiF" width="580" />

&ldquo;This project is so special when it comes to multi-residential living - we have ensured each floor plan is expansive and light-filled, offering that perfect balance of comfort and functionality,&quot; Goldman said.

&quot;Our mantra from day one, was to create the very best residential project McKinnon has been presented with. We focus on doing things right and the results have followed. It is extremely satisfying for the whole development team to have achieved such a lofty goal.&rdquo;

Render v reality: How BCENTRAL's finished apartments stack up against its plans

<html><body>
The Melbourne-based developer Lowe Living have only one apartment remaining in their luxury Bayside development Azura Aspendale, which saw solid sales growth despite the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Foster Street townhouse and apartment development was launched in March last year, the same month COVID had Australian's in lockdown. Within six months of the project launch, 26 of the 27 residences had sold.

Construction is well underway on Azura Aspendale, a mix of eight townhouses and 19 apartments created by design-studio Golden. They created the homes in collaboration with landscape architect Jack Merlo and Chamberlain Architects.The project is expected to be completed in late 2021.

Lowe Living Founder and managing director, Tim Lowe, said that the meticulous craftsmanship and unparalleled attention to detail of Azura Aspendale, combined with the elite location of pure beach- front living, will present a once in a lifetime opportunity for buyers.

“Azura Aspendale is inspired by its unique location,” Mr Lowe said. “Its sophistication and sensitivity to its surrounds is something we have not yet seen in beach-side living.”

“From the tranquillity afforded by spectacular use of light and space and its carefully crafted floorplans that promote open-plan living and connection to the outdoors, to its sleek, stylish and premium finishes, Azura Aspendale represents a new generation of high-end coastal living.”

“Its absolute beach front location, with supreme views of the bay, combined with its thoughtful design, makes Azura Aspendale one of a kind.”

Inspired by tropical modernism examples in Brazil and Asia, the material palette of concrete, red brick and timber, sits in harmony with the coastal landscape.

Jack Merlo has given great consideration to the coastal location, using feature foliage and greenery to link the landscape and architecture.

“One of the most unique aspects of Azura Aspendale is the relationship between architecture, landscaping and surrounds,” said Mr Lowe. “These elements have all been carefully considered to create a sense of tranquillity and a private sanctuary, nestled beside the beach.”

“With the beauty of Port Phillip Bay quite literally on your doorstep, and only a short walk to the vibrant eateries and cosmopolitan amenities of Aspendale and neighbouring suburbs, Azura Aspendale will give owners the rare opportunity to enjoy a sea change while not compromising on locale or quality."
