As of September 2018, Australia's residential real estate valuation stands at $7.6 trillion, comprising a significant portion of national wealth, with Sydney experiencing the largest decline in dwelling values at -6.1% over the past year. Rental growth is slowing down, particularly in Sydney and Melbourne, while the market sees reduced sales and increased time on market. Additionally, the overall approvals for new housing have diminished, leading to a lower mortgage demand influenced by changes in credit availability.
