Based on the results, 59 percent claim that now is a good time to buy a property and 52 percent believe the property prices will hike up over the next 12 months, reported <a href=\"https:\/\/thenewdaily.com.au\/money\/property\/2019\/10\/16\/finder-good-time-to-buy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The New Daily<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Bessie Hassan, Finder\u2019s head of PR Australia, describes the market sentiment as \u201cslowly, but steadily\u201d improving. \u201cThis is likely driven by three recent cash-rate cuts, increased lending flexibility, and some certainty from the presumed continuation of negative gearing,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>Wakelin Property Advisory director Jarrod McCabe believes that more lenient bank lending and reduced interest rates will cause the price increase by the last quarter of 2020.<\/p>\n<p>Despite values dropping for the first half of the year, McCab predicts that properties will be valued higher by the end of 2019, compared to the beginning. He explained that the level of supply dictates whether the prices will continue to soar by the end of next year.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf that continues to build, then the market will probably start to plateau,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/australia-housing-price-increase\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>More: Australia\u2019s housing market bounces back, with a $2,000 weekly price increase<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, J-Han Ho, a senior lecturer at Curtin University\u2019s School of Economics, Finance, and Property, said that there is no guarantee if the prices will continue to rise.<\/p>\n<p>He explained that the growing uncertainty, weak wage growth, and rising unemployment in the worldwide economy could reduce the prices over the short to medium term, which is why he encourages prospective buyers to be more cautious before making any purchase.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf real estate is a long-term investment, then people need to purchase based on their long-term lifestyle objective and life choices\u2026 because once you buy into something, you can\u2019t sell it easily,\u201d said Dr. Ho.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s why there\u2019s sometimes a benefit to purchasing when you\u2019re slightly older, because you\u2019re probably more in tune to knowing what you want and where you want to be.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He further added that people who owned property does not necessarily mean they are better off compared to those who simply rented money and kept theirs in a savings account.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Aussies are under the impression that property prices will increase within the coming
