Budget Adelaide market tipped for subdued 2% annual growth: Domain Group
The Adelaide housing market recorded another year of solid activity over 2014 with the median house price increasing by 4.6%, according to the Domain Group senior economist, Andrew Wilson.
This is despite the continued underperformance of the local economy. Up from the 3.4% recorded over 2013, this growth reflects a market finding its feet again after a prolonged period of subdued buyer activity.

Buyer activity in the Adelaide housing market has centred on mid to upper price ranges, particularly in the established western and eastern suburban areas.
Lower interest rates will fuel confidence in aspirational buyers in these areas again through 2015.
The budget markets to the north and south will remain subdued as high unemployment and concerns over job security constrains growth.
