As Canberra has evolved into an increasingly lively city with a secure economy, it has also developed into one of Australia’s most dynamic property markets. 

Whether you’re a first-home buyer or a seasoned investor, Canberra has consistently proven to be one of the most intelligent locations to invest in property. With the second-lowest stamp-duty in Australia and a strong labour market that has led to an increasing population, Canberra’s development doesn’t seem to be slowing down. 

Property prices in Canberra have risen by 2.2% since last year, with the median property value currently sitting at $816, 644. Unemployment in the ACT is at 3.9% and population growth is at 1.7% thanks to the strong labour market. According to ABS data, this is the second-highest growth rate in Australia. 

In November 2021, buying off-the-plan became even more appealing for those looking to buy in Canberra. New legislation targeting sunset clauses were introduced to ensure buyers more peace of mind
