411- Perth Market Oct26 Update ft. Rash Dhanjal

Source: https://www.podbean.com/eau/pb-7wdyd-... Host Trent Fleskens opens the Perth Property Show noting spring brings more listings while weekly sales remain in the mid–low 600s, about 25% below pre-budget levels, pushing stock on market to around 8,000 despite Perth still being under a balanced market. Guest agent Rash Dhanjal says investor activity has fallen sharply, with fewer investment loans and investors now mainly chasing yield or retain-and-build opportunities. They discuss days on market stretching from around 8 earlier in the year to roughly 28–35 days, with well-presented, well-priced homes still selling quickly and overpriced or flawed properties lingering. Affordability constraints from rate rises, budget impacts, and negative gearing changes are dampening sentiment, with expectations of mostly sideways growth. Rash outlines strategies including sharper pricing, staging, after-hours buyer work, and selective off-market or “buzz” campaigns, sharing an Ellenbrook example that generated 24 offers and a much higher price in 24 hours.
