10 of the 11 cities we rated undervalued in the last edition grew in 2023, by 7.4% on average.
Annual wage growth reached 4.2% by late 2023, the highest since March 2009. Only 4 of the 19 cities with rising prices became less affordable.
8 of 25 regional cities were undervalued at a 6.5% home loan rate, 5 of them in Queensland. That was up from 5 a year earlier.
