Matt Hurlston of Ray White Carnegie: Melbourne property prices on the up

By Matt Hurlston

Looking for property outside the Melbourne CBD might be higher up your agenda as it emerges that prices are on the rise in the city.

The Bendigo Bank/Real Estate Institute of Australia (REIA) Real Estate Market Facts for the March quarter shows an increase across many state capitals last month – and Melbourne is one of them.

Although Sydney remained the top of the median house price list, other parts of the country also witnessed price rises.

REIA president Peter Bushby said: "The weighted average median house price for the eight capital cities is now $606,517 with Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Canberra, Hobart and Darwin all contributing to the rise."

There was a 1.9 per cent increase in house values across the capitals in the three-month period, while the cost of other dwellings experienced a 1.7 per cent rise.
