House prices rise 1.7% in March

The rate of growth in the housing market appears to be tapering off, with the latest housing finance and property price data showing a slowdown in activity as affordability and wages become more out of sync.

The total value of finance commitments for properties, houses and units, excluding alterations and additions, rose 0.2 per cent in March, on the month before, but fell 1.1 per cent in seasonally adjusted terms, according to the Bureau of Statistics housing finance data on Tuesday.

Official government house price data for capital cities also showed a significant moderation in house price growth for Sydney and Melbourne, down from boom time levels to a more solid market for buyers and sellers.

"What we have seen happen is the unprecedented surge in affordability through low interest rates has largely run its course and we are seeing that those prices were unsustainable given modest wages growth," said Australian Property Monitors senior economist Andrew Wilson.

The weighted average of property prices across the eight capital cities rose 1.7 per cent in the March quarter, compared to a rise of 3.8 per cent for the December quarter 2013 and a rise of 2.5 per cent for the September quarter 2013, the ABS reported on Tuesday.

Housing finance commitments for the purchase of newly constructed dwellings fell by $15 million or 1.6 per cent.

"The growth rate appears to be levelling off – as you'd expect given the rises in prices in major cities over the last year," Urbis economist Nicki Hutley, however she added that activity was still at a high level.

The total value of owner occupied housing commitments rose 0.1 per cent or by $24 million, in March 2014.

Rises were recorded in commitments for the construction of dwellings, up by $32 million or 1.8 per cent and commitments for the purchase of established dwellings was up $7 million, or 0.1 per cent.

The total value of investment housing commitments rose by $42 million or 0.4 per cent in March compared with February 2014.
