Units Show Greater Resilience Than Houses in Market Downturn

National house prices fell 0.3% in September, now 3.6% below their peak, while unit prices were largely unchanged and are only 2.2% below their high. This trend is particularly evident in Sydney and Melbourne.

In Melbourne's western growth corridor, units could offer a more stable investment or affordable entry point for buyers. Investors might consider units for their relative resilience and potential for consistent rental yields.
