Areas with over five months of inventory, coupled with falling demand and lengthening sales times, are at higher risk. This suggests that current price drops may intensify in these specific locations.

For Melbourne's western growth corridor, if local inventory levels are high, buyers could gain significant leverage. Sellers might need to be more flexible with pricing to attract interest in a market with increased stock.
