Sentiment dropped by one point from the March quarter result to 131, but the state remains a strong bastion for future growth. This could be great news for anyone interested in buying real estate in Bentleigh in the coming months.
Property Council Victorian executive director Jennifer Cunich said capital growth expectations across residential, commercial, industrial and office real estate was expected to remain steady throughout the year.
"Housing and commercial lead the way on our growth expectations index with scores rising to 33 and 11 points respectively," said Ms Cunich in a 23 April statement.
"This was followed by increases in the hotel, retail and industrial sectors to twelve, eight and seven points respectively."
She said that zone reforms were one of the major issues facing the state, as well as highlighting the importance of beginning the Infrastructure Victoria programs in the near future.
