Adelaide Residential Market / Your Insights for Jun 2025

Short, sharp, stats & updates on what’s happening in Adelaide’s residential sales market for Jun 2025.

Australia’s housing market continues to show steady momentum, with national dwelling values rising by 0.5% in May. That brings the index 1.7% higher over the first five months of the year, marking four consecutive months of positive growth.

While annual growth has eased slightly to 3.3%, the broader picture remains encouraging. Across the country, housing values are holding strong. Even in markets like Sydney and Melbourne, where rental growth is starting to level out, tight vacancy rates and a stabilising migration landscape continue to support solid fundamentals.

Adelaide, in particular, is standing out as one of the nation’s top performers. Home values here rose another 0.4% in May, taking the annual increase to 8.6%, equal to Perth for the highest growth among capital cities. That’s an impressive $65,400 added to the median dwelling value in just 12 months.

Looking over a longer horizon, Adelaide’s market has experienced remarkable growth. Over the past five years, values have surged by 73.7%, lifting the median by approximately $352,000. This sustained upward trend reflects not only the strength of the local market, but the lifestyle, opportunity and long-term value Adelaide offers.

There’s also growing confidence on the horizon. The Reserve Bank’s outlook on inflation has improved, with signs pointing toward it returning to the 2 to 3 percent target range. That’s fuelling expectations of further interest rate cuts, which could unlock more movement in the market. With renewed energy following the federal election and a clear undersupply of new housing, Adelaide is well-positioned for continued interest and strong buyer activity.
