根据Domain房价报告，悉尼房地产市场呈现出截然相反的走势[1]。以Cabramatta、North Richmond和Ourimbah为代表的平价郊区，12个月内房价涨幅达到27%或以上[1]，而Bronte、Birchgrove和Woollahra等高端市场则面临严重下滑，跌幅在8.5%以上[1]。其中，Parramatta房价下跌10%，Marsfield房价跌幅更是高达21.2%[1]。
Domain首席经济学家Nicola Powell表示，"这是悉尼30年来最急剧的价格下跌"[1]。这一分化主要源于联邦政府5月份宣布的负扣税政策调整，导致投资者"几乎一夜之间离开"市场[1]。与此同时，利率上升持续施压房地产市场。
首次购房者面临的困境日益突出[1]。Loan Market信用专家Shay Waraker指出，即使有5%首付计划可供选择，以中位数房价购房的月供仍然"疯狂"[1]。
Sydney's residential real estate landscape has undergone a sharp divergence, with affordable outer suburbs experiencing substantial gains while traditionally expensive inner-city areas face significant declines. According to Domain's property report, suburbs including Cabramatta, North Richmond, and Ourimbah have recorded price increases of 27 percent or more over a 12-month period.[1] Conversely, premium locations such as Bronte, Birchgrove, and Woollahra have seen drops exceeding 8.5 percent, while Parramatta fell 10 percent and Marsfield declined 21.2 percent.[1]
Domain's chief economist Nicola Powell described the downturn as "the sharpest price fall Sydney has experienced in 30 years."[1] The shift has been triggered by two major factors: the federal government's decision in May to adjust negative gearing policies, which prompted investors to exit the market "almost overnight," and successive interest rate increases.[1]
The market turbulence has intensified challenges for first-home buyers. Shay Waraker, a credit specialist at Loan Market, noted that purchasing a property at the median price remains unaffordable for many prospective buyers, with monthly repayments described as "crazy" even with a 5 percent deposit scheme available.[1]
