Perth Market Shift: homes taking nearly twice as long to sell
Perth homes are taking longer to sell as the market moves away from the very fast conditions seen earlier this year. Latest data shows houses are now selling in a median of 14 days and units in 13 days, compared to just 9 days and 8 days in February. While slower, properties are still selling well ahead of long-term averages. REIWA says the change is mainly due to more homes hitting the market and buyers becoming more cautious due to higher interest rates. Listings have lifted to over 1,000 per week in recent months, giving buyers more choice and reducing urgency. Prices are still rising. In May, the median house price increased 2.2% to $920,000, while units rose 2.3% to $660,000. However, growth is expected to ease if current conditions continue. More stock is also available, with over 5,100 properties listed for sale at the end of May — the highest level in more than a year. Rentals were mostly stable, with median weekly rents holding at $750 for houses and $700 for units, though still higher than a year ago. Overall, Perth’s market remains strong but is shifting from extremely fast conditions to a more balanced pace, giving buyers more time and sellers a need to price carefully. ...
Winter Nights Come Alive at Kings Park
One of Perth's most popular winter attractions is making its return, with Lightscape set to illuminate Kings Park from 5 June to 26 July. The after-dark event will once again transform the park into a spectacular light-filled experience, featuring more than 20 new installations spread across a 1.8-kilometre trail through the gardens and bushland. Visitors can expect a completely refreshed experience this year, with several new displays created by international artists. Among the highlights is Mycelium Network, an installation inspired by the underground fungal systems that help support plant life and ecosystems around the world. The artwork aims to showcase the hidden connections found beneath our feet and the important role they play in nature. Another feature of this year's trail is Herbum, a collection of giant illuminated grasses reaching up to eight metres high. Created by French artists TILT, the installation combines light, movement and imagination to create a striking display that comes alive after sunset. Since arriving in Perth in 2023, Lightscape has attracted more than 400,000 visitors and has quickly become a favourite winter outing for families, couples and visitors to the city. Set within the beautiful surroundings of Kings Park, the event offers a unique opportunity to experience one of Perth's most iconic landmarks in a completely different way. The combination of light, colour and nature creates an atmosphere that appeals to all ages. Tickets are available now, with family passes and individual tickets on sale through Ticketek. Free shuttle buses will also operate from Perth Busport throughout the event, making it easy for visitors to access the attraction. For those looking for something different to do during the cooler months, Lightscape promises another memorable winter experience in the heart of Perth....
Building a Home That Works for the Future
Choosing to build a home is one of the biggest decisions many families will make. While it's easy to focus on current needs, it's also important to think about how a home will work in the years ahead. Australians are staying in their homes longer than ever, with many families remaining in the same property for more than a decade. As lifestyles change, homeowners are looking for designs that can adapt to different stages of life without requiring major renovations. A practical floorplan should provide a balance between shared living areas and private spaces. Open-plan kitchens and living rooms remain popular, creating a central hub for family life, while separate zones offer privacy for parents, children, guests, or those working from home. Flexible rooms are becoming increasingly valuable. A space used as a home office today may later become a nursery, guest room, study area, or accommodation for an ageing family member. This versatility can help homeowners get more value from their property over time. Storage is another feature that shouldn't be overlooked. Well-designed homes incorporate storage into the layout from the beginning, helping to reduce clutter and maximise living space. Clever use of cupboards, cabinetry, and vertical storage solutions can make a significant difference to everyday living. When planning a new build, it's worth considering how your household may change in the future. Questions such as whether you'll need additional bedrooms, dedicated workspaces, or improved accessibility can help guide your decisions. Visiting display homes and speaking with experienced building consultants can also provide valuable insight into different layouts and design options. Taking the time to carefully plan your floorplan today can help ensure your home remains comfortable, practical, and suited to your family's needs for years to come....
New ID Verification Rules Aim to Better Protect Property Buyers and Sellers
A recent scam attempt involving a vacant block of land in Yanchep is a timely reminder that property fraud can happen to anyone and highlights why stronger identity checks are being introduced across Australia's real estate industry. The scam involved a person falsely claiming to own a vacant property and attempting to arrange its sale while supposedly living overseas. Thankfully, settlement agents identified several warning signs and stopped the transaction before any damage was done. While the scam was unsuccessful, it demonstrates how sophisticated property fraud has become. Criminals are increasingly targeting vacant land, investment properties, and owners who may be living interstate or overseas. For buyers and sellers, this means identity verification is becoming more important than ever. From 1 July 2026, new Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing (AML/CTF) laws will require real estate agencies to carry out additional identification checks during property transactions. Buyers and sellers may be asked to provide more documentation than in the past, and agencies may need to verify information before proceeding with a sale. Although these extra steps may add a little more paperwork, they are designed to protect consumers and reduce the risk of fraud, identity theft, and unauthorised property sales. For sellers, the new requirements help ensure that only the rightful owner can list and sell a property. For buyers, they provide greater confidence that the person selling the property is who they claim to be. Property owners should ensure their contact details are current and be prepared to provide identification when requested. Buyers should also expect additional verification checks throughout the purchasing process. While no system can completely eliminate fraud, stronger identity verification measures will make it significantly harder for scammers to target Australian property owners. As the Yanchep incident shows, a few extra checks today could prevent a costly and stressful situation tomorrow....
