    the anual growth rate is still negative based on core logic data.
    unemployment rate is still high, bad news about small businesses everywhere.
    But after attend some of the home opens and found the market now is quite hot. lots of visits and some people discuss the potential interest with agent.
    Good properties are harder to find in the market based on recent 1-2 months research.
    Is this really a good sign or market will still drop?

    Markets within markets and all that. Outer burbs still in the doldrums. Good quality stock inner ring are hot cakes.

    Hot market is relative, but syd and melb markets have certainly got some very significant market sentiment shifts, which has little to do with finance availability in my view

    I reckon so at least in Melbourne. Areas with good transport, shops, and schools have picked up really well in last couple of months. Is it temporary? Am not sure as am not an experienced investor. But definitely there is a shift, and towards positive territory in terms of property price.

    It depends on where you are looking. I'm seeing good traction and turn out in the sub 7km fro the CBD if things are priced well.

    There has been a lot of talk about the market picking up. I think we need something more than talk.

    Transactions are occurring western suburbs and inner ring. Not sure if that means speculators are making a profit however.
