    I agree it won't go bananas but will be a slow burn with ok growth for a longer period. For me that is much better anyway, as I'm young and can keep on buying every year or 2 with out worrying about where to park a massive bit of equity in one hit.

    There are still a lot of PPR purchasers looking to buy, so while demand could drop from investors, O/Os are still prepared to buy at current prices.

    APRA's actions make it easier for the RBA to cut rates again. The RBA will cut, and investors won't be paying any more than they were before, while for owner-occupiers it will get much easier.

    @monalisa and I bought 2 early/mid 2013, one in Mounty County (Mount Druitt) and the other in Kingswood, both 50% growth.:)

    And a development site in Mount Druitt in August 2013, grown 65% in less than 2 years.

    Your right, however investors are going to find it harder to source finance which is what is currently happening.

    The rba will cut, and the banks may pass at least most of it on. if they don't pass it on, then they will be risking protecting their market share.

    Haha yeh. A tad higher rate though. But that's minuscule when catching a rising market.

    Nicely said.
    You do what you can do with the information you have. No point in wasting your energy on regrets. Simply learn from that and move on.

    Here!
    I agree, all these APRA changes are designed to pave the way for more rate cuts. It's all carefully considered. They don't just meet each month and decide on the spot, I bet they have many scenarios, plans, and overall road maps already laid out and these changes play a role in all of these options. Also I believe the majority of activity you'll see in Brisbane will be first home buyers and people buying their PPOR. I think the dynamics / drivers will be slightly different from what we've seen in Sydney.

    Anyone own houses in any of these suburbs?

    I remember getting a call from a friend about a year and a half ago, asking where I'd buy with his budget. I suggested an entry level house in Marrickville.

    He didn't buy though (I think cashflow was the reason).

    I would look like a prophet were it nor for the fact that 30 other suburbs did just as well.

    Psychic:)

    These stats are for 2015, 6/12 month period.
    Would be great to view stats for Syd areas on growth from 2013-2015, as a way of comparing pockets. I think Syd Western suburbs were the first to move.

    Maybe another question to ask, are there any Sydney suburbs that didn't achieve a 50% increase in the last 2 years?
