Matt Hurlston of Ray White Carnegie: Housing supply boosted by dwelling approval figures

By Matt Hurlston

An important factor to take into consideration for investors interested in portfolio expansion is the strength of a region's property development. 

Recent figures released by the Housing Industry Association (HIA) have highlighted a boost in dwelling approvals across Australia over March, as new home building reaches new heights nationwide. 

HIA senior economist Shane Garrett said the combination of low interest rates and strong population growth has been a brilliant stimulant for the market, which could be ripe for investment. 

"New home building is keeping domestic demand above the waterline. Were it not for the performance of the residential construction industry, Australia's economy would be in a far weaker state," said Mr Garrett in a 4 May statement. 

This could be great news for investors interested in expanding their portfolio into real estate in Bentleigh. The multi-unit property market has seen significant growth over the last few months, highlighting the residential trend being seen across Australia.
