Why regional markets will continue to soar post-stimulus packages By Cameron Micallef 30 April 2021 | 1 minute read SHARE Australia’s regional property market is tipped to continue its strong growth into 2023, despite government stimulus packages being withdrawn, new research has revealed. Analysis by BIS Oxford Economics suggests that despite incoming bumps to dwelling supply due to government stimulus money and changing consumer preferences, regional markets are expected to remain tight. Data released by Domain showed regional areas have outperformed over the last 12 months, with the March quarter being the first time capital cities have trumped the regions in over a year. BIS Oxford Economics said regional property sales have been the major benefactors of government stimulus money. However, with changes in consumer preferences and significant increment to purchasing power, regional areas are likely to continue to show strong signs of growth.
