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.

There has been limited sales activity in the Mildura region over the last month according to Herron Todd White's July report apart from the $84 million winery at Red Cliffs by Chinese wine making company Weilong.
According to HTW, a planning permit has been issued and approval granted to crush 84,000 tonnes of grapes annually with the winery operational for the 2019 vintage.  
In the Murrumbidgee Irrigation Area new plantings of Almonds are up due to the difficulty in finding remaining suitable land within an affordable distance from the Murray River.
"Data released from the Almond Board of Australia indicates that the area of plantings grew by 15.8 percent, or 4,904 hectares in 2016, and that a similar area of plantings is expected within the coming year," HTW said.
"If the forecast is correct, this will take the planted area to over 36,000 hectares.
"Much of the new plantings are now occurring in the Murrumbidgee Irrigation Area, due in part, to the difficulty in finding remaining suitable land within an affordable distance from the Murray River.
"The Webster Ltd owned Tandou farm, located just to the south west of Menindee, is to be de- commissioned, with the associated 21,900 megalitre water licence (mix of General and High Security entitlements), being acquired by the Federal Government for $78 million.
"Webster lobbied for this sale due to concerns over water reliability in the lower Darling River. Cotton and other irrigated crops have been grown on Tandou since the mid 1970s, however significant crops (more than 3,000 hectares) have only been grown in four of the past 12 years, with no crops sown over five of those years."

The lofty Barwon Heights has been sold for $10 million plus by the Guye family who have owned the farm since 1963.
<a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/sold/property-mixed+farming-vic-winchelsea-7893514" target="_blank">The property</a> just outside Winchelsea had been added over the years to its recent 410ha offering of prime grazing and cropping land.
The 65 Atkins Road property had been listed with $9 million plus hopes through Elders agent Ken Drysdale.
Rod Guye and wife Rosalie were dairy farmers milking up to 300 cows until they gave it away six years ago as well as growing crops and fodder for the dairy herd.
The property is 25 minutes to Geelong and an hour and 20 minutes to Melbourne, making it an ideal investment as a farming property and for its future subdivision potential.
"On a good clear night, you can even see the lights of Melbourne and Ballarat," Rod Guye told The Weekly Times when it was listed.
Some 60 contracts were issued, Fairfax Media noted.
The sale comes when rural values across Victoria have shown strong official price growth, according to the latest report from the valuer-general of Victoria.
The valuer-general's A Guide to Property Values report showed that over 2016, Victorian farm prices rose by 7.4 per cent compared with a 5.8 per cent rise in the median Melbourne house price and a 1.4 per cent rise in Melbourne units.
It has been noted some of the increase can be attributed to the record prices paid for farms on Melbourne's urban fringe by property developers and land bankers for future conversion to residential housing lots
Recent rural sales in the greater Geelong area include a 12.1-hectare amalgamation of six adjoining farms in Ocean Grove which sold for $11.1 million in May.
The residentially zoned site was marketed to home builders by Hocking Stuart.

Piper View, a quality lifestyle or permanent residence property is for sale through the Kilmore office of Ruralco Property.
It is so named as it has an outstanding outlook to the east that takes in uninterrupted views to the distant extinct volcano landmark of Mount Piper.
Located at 4 Kurkurac Court at High Camp the property is in a rural environment only twelve kilometres to the north of Kilmore township, with access by the Northern Highway and Moranding Road.
Piper View offers a land area of 24.9 hectares, or 61.5 acres, and has undergone substantial and professional development by the vendors since the property was first purchased by them as a bare block, one of three of roughly similar size served by a no through private estate type road.
Listed for sale with offers sought in the $880,000 to $920,000 range the vendors says they have enjoyed the property immensely but after some health issues have intervened recently they have reluctantly decided to sell to return to City living.
A key feature of Piper View is the large brick homestead comprising four bedrooms, two bathrooms (one being an ensuite, the second a large family bathroom) which they had built in 2004 by one of Australia’s leading residential builders.
With an area under roof of thirty one squares, the home includes a large formal lounge, a well serviced all electric kitchen with a combined dining and family living area.
There is a two-car garage under the roof line while double glazing has been used throughout increasing the energy efficiency of the home whose services include an open fire, wall heaters and reverse cycle air-conditioning systems that services two bedrooms
Other physical features include two water tanks each of 25,000 litres capacity to harvest rainwater plus another of identical size adjacent to a nine by five metre steel framed and concrete floored workshop or machinery shed with two roller doors for access.
Both structures are set in established gardens inclusive of plantings of eighteen olive trees, eighteen citrus and nineteen other fruit trees, ten muscatel grape vines, another twenty ornamental trees, plus 100 rose bushes with another 500 native trees dispersed around the holding.
There is also a large seasonal vegetable garden ideal for home-grown produce.
With one paddock dam and a tank fed trough, the vendors have run up to 25 cattle and 50 sheep.
The property has a long exposure of over four hundred and fifty metres to Kurkurac Creek along its southern boundary.
Ruralco Property’s selling agent Kilmore office based Jeanette Laffan says that “the vendors have invested untold time and a passion for gardening to advance the property to a very high standard, with the home being a particular delight”.

A 795 acre lot at Pokolbin has been relisted for sale through Jurd’s Real Estate agent Cain Beckett.
<a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-livestock-nsw-pokolbin-7883906" target="_blank">Lot 7 Deasys Road</a> is located in the heart of the Hunter Valley, the largest remaining private holding in Wine Country.
The iconic property has been owned by five generations of the Deasy Family and descendants since the 1860’s.
Its original weatherboard sits among old fig trees in the middle of the property.
"At a time when they had the opportunity to choose the finest land available, the Deasy family chose Rockview and have continued to farm it with cattle, sheep and crops over 140 years," listing agent Cain Beckett said.
"It is home to some spectacular views in the district and is an ideal resort site or commercial development opportunity as it has development approval for an 8 lot rural subdivision," he said.
The zoning of the property allows integrated tourism such as accommodation, a resort, restaurants, a hotel, vineyards or a winery in addition to grazing and other agricultural activities.
It is also suitable for mixed grazing and agriculture use, including establishment of a large vineyard.
Featuring cattle yards, dams and access to the Wine Country Private Irrigation Scheme.

The ATO has moved to sell a 331 hectare bushland vacant land holding at Lyons in the Logan district.
It is a holding owned by Sir Yii Ann Hii who is in a $64 million battle with the tax office.
It was bought with Kiew Chion Toing. <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-residential+land-qld-lyons-201695954" target="_blank">The rural zoned holding</a> is scheduled for February 1 auction unless the ATO's enforcement warrant is satisfied.  
The ATO auction advisory nots the owners are Yii Ann Hii and Kiew Chiong Tiong. It was purchased in 1996.
Sir Yii got around Brisbane with 1VIP numberplates on a 2005 Rolls Royce Phantom.
His palatial abode, Bromley, affectionately known as the landmark Hamilton Hill home that businessman Christopher Skase built, was listed for sale last year.
The hotel-like residence on Dickson Terrace was constructed by Skase and his wife Pixie in 1988 who quit Australia for Majorca in 1991.
Set around the medieval circular staircase as 50ft internal Bell tower, it last sold at $6.25 million in 2001.
Sir Yii took proceedings in the Kuala Lumpur High Court seeking a court declaration that he was domiciled in Malaysia from 2001 to 2009 and had been a local taxpayer. The Australian Tax Office had ruled in 2013 that he had abandoned his domicile with his tax resident status shifted from Malaysia to Australia. 
Hii’s lawyer has advised his client did not stay for more than six months in Brisbane, visiting his six children and looking into investments during that period.

A number of strong sales throughout the Binalong and Boorowa area of the Central tablelands in New South Wales with auction results so far exceeding expectations according to Herron Todd White.
HTW's November rural report said the trend for this region was several strong sales following on the back of several previous strong sales, generating growing market optimism in that area.
"One sale was Billabong at 239 White Flag Road, Binalong (above), a 904.14 hectare property located approximately 21 kilometres south-east of Boorowa and 30 kilometres north-west of Yass. Billabong sold through CBRE at auction in Canberra on 4 August 2016 for a consideration of $5.825 million," the report said.
"The vendor was a Sydney based buyer. Water is a feature of this property which also enjoys extensive frontage to the Boorowa River. This sale indicates a strong value of $6,443 per hectare overall including buildings for a relatively large and well improved holding. The strength of this sale demonstrates the optimism currently prevalent in the market.
"Another sale illustrating the current market is The Cliffs at 655 Stapletons Road, Molong. The Cliffs sold through local agent McCarron Cullinane Orange on 8 August 2016 for a consideration $1.75 million. The sale shows a value of $6,441 per hectare overall including buildings. The 271.7 hectare property is gently undulating open arable country throughout, bene ts from Bell River frontage and is generally typical of the appealing country seen around the Cabonne area."
