The Gold Coast real estate market will also soar to new records, with costs anticipated to rise by 3 to 6 percent, while the Sunlight Coast is set for a 2 to 5 percent increase.
Domain chief of economics and research Dr Nicola Powell said the forecast rate of development was modest in the majority of cities compared to price motions in a "strong increase".
" Rates are still rising but not as fast as what we saw in the past financial year," she stated.
Perth and Adelaide are the exceptions. "Adelaide has actually resembled a steam train-- you can't stop it," she stated. "And Perth just hasn't slowed down."
Houses are likewise set to end up being more costly in the coming 12 months, with units in Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth, the Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast to strike new record prices.
According to Powell, there will be a general cost rise of 3 to 5 per cent in regional units, suggesting a shift towards more affordable residential or commercial property choices for purchasers.
Melbourne's residential or commercial property market remains an outlier, with expected moderate annual growth of as much as 2 per cent for houses. This will leave the average home price at in between $1.03 million and $1.05 million, marking the slowest and most irregular healing in the city's history.
The Melbourne housing market experienced a prolonged slump from 2022 to 2023, with the typical home rate stopping by 6.3% - a considerable $69,209 reduction - over a period of five consecutive quarters. According to Powell, even with a positive 2% development forecast, the city's home costs will only manage to recoup about half of their losses.
Home costs in Canberra are anticipated to continue recovering, with a predicted moderate development ranging from 0 to 4 percent.
"The country's capital has struggled to move into an established healing and will follow a similarly sluggish trajectory," Powell stated.
The forecast of impending price walkings spells problem for prospective homebuyers having a hard time to scrape together a deposit.
"It indicates different things for different kinds of purchasers," Powell said.

Whereas if you're a first-home purchaser, it might indicate you have to conserve more."
Australia's real estate market remains under significant pressure as families continue to come to grips with affordability and serviceability limitations amidst the cost-of-living crisis, heightened by sustained high rates of interest.
The Australian reserve bank has maintained its benchmark rates of interest at a 10-year peak of 4.35% because the latter part of 2022.
According to the Domain report, the limited accessibility of new homes will stay the primary aspect affecting property worths in the near future. This is because of a prolonged shortage of buildable land, slow construction authorization issuance, and elevated structure costs, which have actually limited housing supply for a prolonged period.
In rather positive news for potential buyers, the stage 3 tax cuts will deliver more cash to households, raising borrowing capacity and, therefore, purchasing power across the nation.
Powell said this might further boost Australia's housing market, however might be offset by a decrease in real wages, as living costs increase faster than salaries.
"If wage development stays at its existing level we will continue to see stretched price and dampened need," she said.
In regional Australia, home and unit rates are expected to grow reasonably over the next 12 months, although the outlook varies between states.
"Simultaneously, a swelling population, fueled by robust increases of new citizens, supplies a considerable increase to the upward trend in residential or commercial property worths," Powell stated.
The present overhaul of the migration system might lead to a drop in need for local real estate, with the intro of a brand-new stream of experienced visas to get rid of the incentive for migrants to live in a local location for two to three years on going into the nation.
This will imply that "an even higher percentage of migrants will flock to metropolitan areas looking for much better job prospects, hence dampening demand in the local sectors", Powell stated.
Nevertheless regional locations near metropolitan areas would stay appealing locations for those who have been priced out of the city and would continue to see an increase of demand, she included.
