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.

WM Residences fills gap in Mordialloc townhouse market

Bulimba

Brisbane's premier riverfront suburbs have long been sought-after for apartment dwellers.

It's more common for new projects to appear in the likes of Newstead, Albion and New Farm, than it is in Bulimba.

But the small suburb south of the Brisbane River looks set for a new development, with Chris Mundey, Founder and Managing Director of Friday Capital, submitting plans for a new development at 43 Wambool Street.

Looking to tap into the high-end downsizer market, the building will comprise just eight three-bedroom apartments across a three-level building.

Brisbane locals, Gatehouse Architects have been appointed to design the project on the large 1,012 sqm site, with the main design intent focusing on seamlessly integrating into the existing neighbourhood's character and charm.

<img alt="Render of the Bulimba development " data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="efeb81b5-e3a6-4a1d-91da-1bb759270cee" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-03-21%20at%203.14.54%20pm.png?VersionId=DeaC2awIRlm4BzKt0rV0FN8Iikk7rZcG" />Render of the proposed Bulimba development.

Located at 43 Wambool Street, the development's design is centred around the concept of incorporating natural light into the living spaces, creating an open and airy atmosphere that encourages a sense of community, harmony, and tranquility. The architecture blends modern and traditional elements, using carefully selected building materials that match the surrounding context.

The building's large windows, balconies, and terraces take advantage of Brisbane's sunny climate and leafy green surroundings, providing residents with a sense of openness and connection to the outside world while maintaining privacy and security.

The addition of a rooftop communal area is designed to encourage social interaction and community across the site, with&nbsp;the 84 sqm space featuring a permeable pergola structure, as well as a range of passive and active recreation opportunities, including a lounge area and outdoor dining space.

The development is designed to respond to Brisbane's subtropical climate and lifestyle, with all units featuring well-proportioned living areas and balconies that create indoor/outdoor living spaces, maximising access to natural light and ventilation.

Ground level units include private open spaces comprising patio areas ranging in size between 25 sqm to 46 sqm, while upper-level units feature balconies ranging in size between 19 sqm through to 48 sqm.

The additional landscaping on the rooftop space further softens the built form from the streetscape and adjoining properties, adding to the amenity of the communal area.

Residents will be just over 200 metres from the bustling Oxford Street, which is home to a mix of retail and food outlets, health care services, bars and cinemas. A number of bus routes also run along Oxford Street, while the Bulimba Ferry Terminal is less than a kilometre away.

The heritage-listed Bulimba Memorial Park is also just a short walk.

Prior to launching Friday Capital, Mundey was the Head of Consulting and Capital Management at an East Coast Boutique Advisory firm and was the lead partner in its Sydney office, with the group working across the eastern seaboard, with projects in Sydney, Brisbane and the Gold Coast.&nbsp;

First look: New plans lodged set to tap into high end Bulimba apartment market

The luxury home builder and now residential apartment developer, Graya, has been given the green light to push on with its second high-end residential project in Brisbane&#39;s inner-ring.

They&#39;ll soon be launching Canvas, a collection of just 21 two, three and four-bedroom apartments in the sought-after riverfront suburb of Bulimba.

Speaking recently to Urban, Rob Gray, who with brother Andrew founded Graya in 2013, said they were attracted to the&nbsp;Love Street site given its proximity to the Oxford Street lifestyle precinct.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112020 project_image_fid=198790]

Gray said the three-level zoning allowed them to create something&nbsp;more affordable than what they usually create in the trophy home space.

&quot;We saw value in being able to bring something to what is one of Brisbane&#39;s top suburbs without pricing out the majority of the market as we do in the single home space,&quot; Gray said.

&quot;Most GRAYA supporters now have a change to own one for themselves.&quot;

Canvas will home a rooftop amenity level with the standout feature the infinity pool and spa. The rooftop offers&nbsp;views back to the Brisbane CBD.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112020 project_image_fid=198792]

Graya has a long-line of prestige home builds to their name, setting a number of street and suburb records in the last few years.

But the move to multi-res was on the cards from day one.

&quot;We always wanted to go into multi-res, it was just a case of timing,&quot; Gray said. The team have been building around 12 luxury houses a year in some of Brisbane&#39;s best suburbs.

Their first multi-res project, Maison in New Farm, was just five luxury full-floor apartments that all sold off th​e plan with an average price of $3.2 million, with sales ranging between $2.8 million and $4.3 million.

Gray says&nbsp;buyers at Canvas should have confidence in the resale value of the Graya product.&nbsp;A Maison apartment that sold off th​e plan for $2.9 million in 2020 resold earlier this year for $5 million.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112020 project_image_fid=198793]

Gray&nbsp;adds that, in the current uncertain times regarding&nbsp;the problematic construction industry, those developers who also build their project, are ultimately going to deliver.

&quot;There will be a real shortage of supply in the coming years, with developers who also build not facing the same types of challenges of those having to hire an external company to construct the project,&quot; Gray suggested.

&quot;There&#39;s also the fact that as a developer and builder, it&#39;s our job to think about every facet of the development. Sometimes when the developer isn&#39;t the builder, details can be missed.&quot;

They had bureau^proberts design&nbsp;Canvas, with the&nbsp;brief to create Graya homes in the sky and&nbsp;create the best unit block in the suburb..

&quot;Bureau^proberts stood out for us having nailed the luxury owner-occupier stock,&quot; Gray said, adding that their last 10 designs, which included Glasshouse, Thornton Residences, Cala Dei and Natura, have been very successful.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112020 project_image_fid=198804]

Graya&#39;s longstanding reputation has seen them field a number of enquiries from either past clients, or friends of past clients, who know the Graya brand and have seen first hand what they&#39;ve produced over the years.

The name Canvas derives from the art world.

&quot;We try to make every project like a work of art,&quot; Gray said, adding that the facade of Canvas was so unique, and some of the intricate details they have brought into the rest of the building, that the&nbsp;word Canvas was an apt name for the project.

Motiv&#39;s Carly Cottam will be handling the sales of Canvas, with launch expected in late June.

Exclusive: GRAYA get green light for Canvas, luxury Bulimba apartments

<html><body>
The now Melbourne-based rugby star Quade Cooper has finally offload his Bulimba home.
He got just over $2.2 million, having failed to find a buyer over the past two years.
He had been seeking offers in the low to mid $2 millions through a different agency, having in initially failed when asking $2.65 million after its failed 2018 auction.
Cooper, now playing with the Melbourne Rebels, bought the 2006-built home for $1.845 million in 2015 when he was with the Queensland Reds.
It got a facelift in 2017 by Graya Constructions.
Set on 445 sqm, the home has four bedrooms, three bathrooms, a pool and a 12 metre marina berth on the Brisbane River.
Cooper lived in the property with his girlfriend, former Miss Universe Australia Laura Dundovic.

Bulimba, Queensland mortgagee home sold for $54,000 loss

<html><body>
The now Melbourne-based rugby star Quade Cooper is attempting to offload his Bulimba home having failed to find a buyer first time around.
He's now asking for offers in the low to mid $2 millions through a different agency, having previously failed late last year when asking $2.65 million after its failed auction.
New agent Michael Bacon from Place Kangaroo Point Instagram messaged Cooper to tell him he could sell the home after it had been on the market for four months with another agency.
Cooper, now playing with the Melbourne Rebels, bought the 2006-built home for $1,845,000 in 2015 when he was with the Queensland Reds.
It got a facelift in 2017 by Graya Constructions.
Set on 445 square metres, the home has four bedrooms, three bathrooms, a pool and a 12 metre marina berth on the Brisbane River.
Cooper lived in the property with his girlfriend, former Miss Universe Australia Laura Dundovic.
