Home values maintain their random pattern again this week, down in two, up in two and flat in the remainder, according to the latest CoreLogic data.
Combined, the daily home value index fell by 0.2 of a percentage point in the week ending 27 January.
Sydney and Melbourne fell by 0.3 of a percentage point and 0.4 of a percentage point, respectively; both Brisbane and Adelaide both lifted by 0.1 of a percentage point; and Perth held steady week on week, CoreLogic’s Property Market Indicator data showed.
The monthly index was down by 1.1 per cent for the week. It fell by 7.1 per cent for the year. Sydney and Melbourne remained the main drivers at -9.5 per cent and -8.2 per cent, respectively.
Listings dropped across all but one capital city for the week, with only Hobart ending in the black — climbing by 5 per cent. Sydney fell by 20.2 per cent and Melbourne fell by 11.5 per cent.
