Throughout the year, Bluebird hosts a number of events for our esteemed clients and industry friends to provide a platform for our network to share current experiences, expertise and support over a few drinks.

This month, we co-hosted our latest event with our special colleagues at Ray White Special Projects, with guest economist Nerida Conisbee.

Discussing ‘Where to Now for the QLD Property Markets’, some key takeaways from the event were:

• The Australian economy is finally slowing, but the labour market still remains very tight

• Interest rates have risen rapidly, but inflation is now easing, albeit slowly

• International migration is back and interstate migration continues - great news for economic growth but more pressure on housing demand

• Housing supply is set to be challenging, building approvals are pulling back and more projects are being put on hold

• Construction costs continue to be a big challenge but increases are slowing

Feel free to get in touch with Bluebird’s Riye Arai-Coupe for a copy of the presentation.

Thank you to all who attended the Bluebird and Ray White Special Project Event.
