Confidence Returns as Melbourne Market Strengthens

The latest data shows Melbourne’s property market continues its steady recovery, with home prices rising 0.3% in June. Regional Victoria matched this gain, rounding out an impressive 6.0% annual increase.

Nationally, home values climbed 0.4% last month, hitting a new record and marking a 4.6% rise year-on-year. With every capital city recording growth, the market is moving in a more synchronised upward trend.

For sellers, this means greater buyer competition and strong sales outcomes. For buyers, stabilised interest rates paired with rising prices present a timely opportunity to enter the market with confidence.

Why Melbourne Remains a Top Investment Choice

Melbourne continues to offer compelling value for investors. With strong population growth, diverse employment, and major infrastructure projects in progress, the city is well-positioned for long-term capital growth.

Middle and outer-ring suburbs still provide affordable entry points and solid rental yields, while large-scale developments like the Suburban Rail Loop are unlocking new investment potential across key corridors.

Rates Held Steady – More Support on the Horizon?

The Reserve Bank has held the cash rate at 3.85%, maintaining stable borrowing conditions and fuelling expectations of possible cuts later this year—another positive sign for the market.

With limited housing supply, ongoing demand and increasing buyer confidence, Melbourne is set for a strong finish to 2025.
