As reported in the Business Insider, Moody’s Investor Services thinks there will be further declines to come, suggesting that Sydney prices will suffer a “correction” in the year ahead.
“Incomes in NSW have increased faster than the national average and underpin some of the recent gains in home values,” Moody’s says, pointing to the chart below. “However, housing values have risen even faster and are overvalued relative to equilibrium value. Therefore, Moody’s Analytics expects a correction across NSW.”
