NAB RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY SURVEY Q2-2018

July 12, 2018

NAB’s Residential Property Index (a measure of sentiment among property professionals based on expectations for house prices and rents) fell 17 points to +6 in Q2 - its lowest level since mid-2016 and well below average (+14). Sentiment waned in all states, with the biggest falls in WA and NSW. QLD and VIC were also much softer. Confidence (based on future expectations for house prices and rents) also fell to a new survey low, pulled down mainly by NSW and VIC where the outlook for house prices was scaled back sharply. The outlook for rents remains positive in all states and is likely placing upward pressure on yields. Also on a positive note, housing demand from first home buyers continued to offset a reduction in demand from foreign buyers in new and established housing markets, with state government incentives and moderating house prices likely helping these buyers move onto the property ladder. Property professionals also said credit constraints are impacting housing markets more than they have for a number of years amid intensified lending scrutiny by banks and APRA-inspired tighter credit policies. NAB’s view is that the weakness in dwelling prices seen over the past year is likely to persist in 2018 and 2019 though we expect moderate rather than sharp price falls.

The future of property investment

whitePaper | April 1, 2022

Real estate crowdfunding platforms are the only solutions available on the market. They o¬er the possibility to invest in a fractional way, to get dividends on the rents and capital gains on the properties. But we consider these platforms as "hybrid" solutions giving access to a right of "co-ownership" and therefore according to us, they do not in any way provide the possibility to invest in a fractional way. In the last few years, these platforms have opened up the crowdfunding market and made people aware of the potential of fractional investment and the strength of a liquid real estate market.
