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.

A Victorian warehouse is soon to go under the hammer through Colliers International.
The <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property/79-83-abercrombie-st-chippendale-nsw-2008" target="_blank">79-83 Abercrombie Street</a> property in Chippendale is a three-story warehouse. 
The inner-city suburb of Chippendale is witnessing a growing trend with its industrial buildings being brought back to life. Old warehouses are being converted for creative commercial use, student accommodation and residential, leveraging off the increased expenditure from institutions such as UTS, Sydney University and Notre Dame, noted Colliers.
The listing agents are Miron Solomons and Matt Pontey of Colliers International.
The Abercrombie Street property has a colourful history, previously housing  J.C. Goodwin &amp; Co, glass importers, bevellers and silverers who were first established in the area in 1875. 
“The firm started at 79-83 Abercrombie Street and by the 1930’s had expanded to four factories in Myrtle Street. The building to this day, retains its local significance with the facade emblazoned with the company’s name,” said Miron Solomons.
The property was recently restored and sits on 393 sqm of land on the corner of Abercrombie Street and Myrtle Street. 
Boasting high ceilings and exposed timbers, the building is a throwback to Chippendale’s past.
The influx of new mixed use project in the nearby Central Park development has seen an increasing push in the surrounding area for Chippendale’s industrial warehouse past to be transformed to alternate uses.
“Chippendale is now at the forefront of being Sydney’s SOHO, south of the Sydney CBD this suburb is on the path to being one of Sydney’s most hotly contested locations,” said Matt Pontey.
“79-83 Abercrombie Street exudes New York loft style with exposed timber beams and an enviable ceiling height, abundant parking and loading dock, the building is a special piece of history that should not be overlooked.”
He said Colliers was witnessing a huge demand in the city fringe for creative office space conversions, as emphasized by the recent purchase of a Chippendale warehouse at 14-16 Buckland Street for $11.25m to UTS.
The property sold in 2001 for $2,120,000, according to CoreLogic data.

A freehold building on Sydney’s Bondi Beach is set to go under the hammer on August 17, making it the third iconic site on the famous beachfront to go to the market in the last 12 months. 
The <a href="https://www.domain.com.au/property-profile/134-138-campbell-parade-bondi-beach-nsw-2026" target="_blank">134-138 Campbell Parade</a> property earns a net income of more than $500,000 per annum.
Listing agent Miron Solomons of Colliers International, who is marketing the property along with and Matt Pontey, said they were expecting this to be the “biggest auction of the year – there will be some serious heavy hitters present”. 
Market chatter suggests price expectations of about $20 million.
This sale comes to market following two highly successful campaigns of neighbouring assets; Bates Milk Bar at 124 Campbell Parade in September 2016, and 128-132 Campbell Parade in May this year, with the latter breaking the Australian record for the highest price paid per metre for land, according to a media release from Colliers.
The 1951 Bates Milk Bar, one of Bondi Beach's most iconic retail premises, sold for $19.12 million last year to developers of the Pacific Bondi, Rebel Property Group's Allen Linz, Capit.el Group's Eduard Litver along with Gil Baron.
The milk bar was known for its choc-malt milkshakes until its closure in 2001.
“It’s a once in a lifetime opportunity – three buildings in this location, on the Bondi beach front with uninterrupted views – coming to market within 12 months is unheard of. These assets are typically held by local families for 50-60 years each,” added Solomons.
There are also two retail tenancies currently within the building. The current ground floor tenants are Ben and Jerry’s and Ezymart in addition to eight residential units above, said Pontey, adding that they were expecting keen interest from developers and investors due to the flexible mixed use zoning.
“These are solid, diverse income streams with significant development potential that are attracting international interest.”
Solomons says the interest in the past two Bondi sites indicates there is still plenty of appetite for Sydney’s top end ‘trophy’ market.
“Any talk in the media of a downturn in the market has not jilted the momentum for the last two campaigns – we aren’t seeing any negative effects in the trophy, high-end of the market.”

Two corner retail assets at the Paris End of the Melbourne CBD have sold under the hammer to two separate foreign buyers last week, underpinning the demand for central-city trophy assets.
The ground and basement levels of 118 Russell Street are leased and fetched $4.95 million combined, according to Colliers International, which handled the auction campaign.
Award-winning bakery café Brioche By Philip occupies the ground-level tenancy of the iconic Fender Katsilidis-designed Hero building, while pilates and barre gym S3 Studio occupies the basement. 
The selling agents were Colliers International’s Oliver Hay, David Sia and Daniel Wolman.
“At the Paris End of the CBD on a highly visible corner, they are considered real trophy investments. It is becoming increasingly evident that the market is prepared to compromise on yield for the enjoyment and status of a premium CBD asset,” said Hay.
A Chinese investor won the basement level for $3.2 million, setting a record yield of 5.12 percent for basement strata retail assets in the city, according to a media release. 
The ground floor was secured by an offshore investor for $1.75 million resulting in a yield of 3.56 percent. 
Hay said both floors had high-quality fitouts, which would provide the buyers with long-term depreciation tax benefits.
“With the tenancies taking a combined rent total of $226,167 per annum, plus GST and outgoings, the return on investment is unquestionable,” he said.
Brioche By Philip, which has won awards for the best bakery and best sourdough bread in Melbourne, has committed to seven years while S3 Studio has signed a three-year lease, starting in 2015 with three further options to renew.
Sia said the location, within “a stone’s throw” of Melbourne landmarks like Chinatown, high-end Collins Street boutiques and popular bars and eateries, was the key selling point.

“This landmark site is strategically located approximately 6.5km from the Sydney CBD with easy access to surrounding arterials including Victoria Road and The City West Link,” he said.
Morrison added that the basement and onsite parking appeals to an owner-occupier and at the same time has attracted interest from motel and other accommodation providers.

A prominent motor dealership in Tweed Heads town centre precinct is being offered at auction on June 14.
The 153 Wharf Street property offers a high-profile tenant in Sharp Motor Group that sells brands like Kia, Honda, Holden, HSV and Suzuki.
The listing agents are Steve Clark and Kyle Youngson of Colliers International. 
Youngson said the property was developed in 2004 by Expo Park Properties linked to Warren von Bibra, who operated the dealership as von Bibra Twin Towns Auto Village, prior to Sharp Motor Group taking over the business in 2011.
Warren von Bibra is a well-known figure in car dealerships. 
“It’s in the bustling heart of the Tweed Heads commercial and retail precinct,” Youngson said of the location.
The property is surrounded by the Tweed Mall, Tweed Heads Public Hospital and Twin Towns RSL Club.
Local and state government statistics showed over 26,000 cars use Wharf Street daily, added Clark.
He said population growth in Tweed Heads Shire was projected to grow from the 2017 forecast of 92,000 to over 125,000 in 2036.
“That’s a 36 per cent population increase just in the Tweed Shire alone,” he said.
“We expect strong interest given continued tightening yields in the southern markets and a strong appetite for automotive investments, especially with future development upside.” 
Sharp Motor Group has taken on a new eight-year lease plus options. The property returns about  $708,000 net pa after outgoings. 
The property has about 3,919 sqm of building and sits on a 9,880 sqm parcel of land combining new and used sales showroom, offices, servicing workshop, vehicle display yard and rooftop parking area. 
There is future development potential as well, due to the B4 Mixed Use zoning, which allows for a mixed use high-rise. 
“That could translate into a mixed-use development with street-level retail and commercial outlets topped by residential development,” he said.
