Australian Residential Property: Rising Interest Rates
- Posted by Dejan Pekic BCom DipFP CFP GAICD, Senior Financial Planner
The definition for an asset price crash is a fall of 20% plus since recent peak.
For 30 years residential property prices in Australian capital cities have failed to crash, corrected yes but no 20% plus fall in the asset price for residential property.
The recession in 2020 was expected to deflate residential property prices by a forecast 20% plus but it failed to deliver.

We have a question.
Will this time be different with bond markets forecasting that the RBA will lift the Cash Rate to 3.0% in the next two years which would mean a standard variable mortgage interest rate of 6.0% per annum?
Remember, remain invested according to your appetite for volatility and when fear and panic take hold, react by buying more quality assets at discounted prices.
