New supply

What's being approved to build.

Building approvals are tomorrow's supply. A market where approvals are falling while population grows is a market where pressure builds. The reverse deserves caution.

Dwellings approved · ABS

FY24
600
FY25
568
FY26
383

267 of the latest year's approvals were houses. Approvals are trending down: new supply is thinning out.

Jobs and investment

Who's working, and what's being spent.

Jobs pay mortgages and rents. Government and commercial building spend is where future jobs come from: schools, hospitals, shops and factories all get approved before they get built.

Jobs · SALM, March 2026

39,171

Employed residents

1.4%

Unemployment (national 4.2%)

3,966 more residents are in work than five years ago (+11.3%). That is strong jobs growth, and it usually shows up in housing demand with a lag.
