I thought I might start a thread about property conditions in Australia (or abroad) and whether or not it appears to be a good time to buy. There seems to allot of expert's out there giving their opinion and it's a case of reading them all and making up your own mind.
Melbourne property prices to fall further, RBA says

"Melbourne's housing market is heading for further price falls and "softer" conditions, according to the Reserve Bank of Australia"
One of the few articles I have read lately that actually suggest the market will fall and singling out Melbourne (Australia's most liveable city and not it's most expensive) as the danger zone. Though it should be pointed out that it is focusing on the oversupply of apartments, which is a market that appears to be a little less consistent than the house and land alternatives.
I wonder how many apartment owners are buying a home or an investment. I like the idea of downsizing, relying less on a car and having enough space for what you actually use. This may still be a work in progress though
