- Consequently, NAB Economics has reduced its forecasts for detached house price growth in 2016. Nationally, prices are now forecast to increase 2% in 2016 (from 3%), largely reflecting a slower pace of growth in Sydney and Melbourne.
- While price growth will slow, a sharp correction in prices is still not expected given supportive market fundamentals and continued foreign demand for new dwellings.
- Risks have increased, however, especially in the apartment market which has seen a sharp increase in construction activity.
