Perth’s house prices surged by up to 40pc in some suburbs but homeowners in Sydney’s premium housing markets are making a bigger windfall, according to CoreLogic.

Already a subscriber?House prices in Perth’s top-performing suburbs would need to rise at least sixfold to match the capital growth achieved in Sydney’s most expensive housing markets, underscoring the profit-making power of the premium end, CoreLogic says.

“An increase of 30 or 40 per cent in the median value can look very different depending on the market., they are still likely to eclipse the stronger growth rates in cheaper markets based on the dollar value change.”south-east, surged 40 per cent in the past 12 months, lifting the median by $138,500 to $484,006.

To match the dollar gain achieved in Vaucluse, another premium but slightly lower-priced suburb at $8.7 million median, Armadale house prices will need to rise more than double. “I guess what this means is that even with a slower growth rate in Sydney’s premium markets, homeowners there are still making more money, at least on paper, compared to the top growth rate suburbs in Perth,” Ms Owen said.

Chris Gray, Sydney-based veteran investor and buyer’s agent at Your Empire Buyers Agent said properties in blue chip suburbs typically produce consistently strong gains.“I think buying in a premium location is a more guaranteed way to make money with less risk because generally, it’s a lot more stable,” he said.
