Optimistic Outlook for Home Building Despite Downright Sales

The outlook for house building is optimistic despite the downright sales of new homes for sale in Australia.

According to the survey conducted by a Housing Industry Association last Novemeber, new home sales rose by just only 0.3 percent due to lack of finance availability seriously influenced the weak multi-unit, medium to high density housing sector. The good result comes next after the sales fell by 6 percent in October based from the survey done by Australia's largest Home Builders.

Western Australia was the stand out state because of having an increase of 12.1 percent for detached new home sales in November. In NSW, the sales were up by 2.7 percent, in South Australia, 2.6 percent but in Queensland and Victoria, they fell by 1.8 and 2.5 percent respectively.

Commsec economist Craig James said the big picture was more positive than the figures suggested. According to him, new approvals to build new homes for sale have increased by more than a third since this year while loans that have taken out to build new dwellings are currently at the highest levels in 15 years.

Australia Needs to Build More Homes

According to Home Builder panels, Australia is not building enough new homes. So they agreed on the proposal of building more homes as the right way to make the housing price more affordable.

In recent years, Australian Housing has become among the most high-priced in the world. For an instance, the median Melbourne price increased by $100,000 in 2009 to more than $500,000.

Peter Jones of Master Home Builders Australia urged reform of "inefficient state and local government practices" as the way to lift the supply of new homes from about 130,000 now to about 200,000 per annum.

"Master Builders for some time has been calling on all governments to embrace a package of reforms including reform of developer charges, improved land release, better planning approval processes and the replacement of stamp duties with less distorting taxes," Mr Jones said.
