Dwelling values in Canberra are increasing at a moderate pace, up 2.6%
over the second quarter of 2016 to be 4.4% higher over the first six
months of 2016 and 3.9% higher over the past 12 months. Canberra
has consistently been recording only moderate rates of value growth over
recent years despite signs that growth may be accelerating. House values
have increased by 4.1% over the past year, which is a much greater rate
of growth than the 1.7% increase in unit values. Twelve months ago house
and unit rents in Canberra were falling; however, over the past year they
have increased by 1.9% and 2.2% respectively. Despite this, there has
been little change in gross rental yields over the year with house yields
easing from 4.1% to 4.0% and unit yields steady at 5.1%.
