Spatial-temporal dynamics of housing bubbles in Greater Sydney
Housing prices in Greater Sydney have risen sharply over the past two decades, raising concerns about speculative overvaluation and spatially uneven housing bubble formation. While prior research has examined housing bubbles at aggregated city scales, limited attention has been given to their spatial-temporal dynamics across nested submarkets. This study develops a macro–micro framework to analyse housing bubble formation across SA4 (regional) an…
Overcoming construction constraints for the supply of new detached and high-rise housing
This Inquiry provides the first significant examination of the Australian construction sector’s ability to deliver both detached and high-rise housing. It analyses construction workflows, markets, regulation, workforce, technologies and supply chains. The housing construction industry in Australia is at crisis point. The rate of Australia’s detached housing output has been largely static since at least 1980. Apartment construction can lift in res…
Transforming high-rise housing construction
The role of price spillovers in the Australian housing crisis
Australia's soaring housing prices have intensified affordability concerns, with a key emerging issue being the widening price gap between houses and units. While prior spillover studies primarily examined how housing booms spread between cities, this research introduces a novel two-market spillover model that augments the traditional Diebold-Yilmaz framework to capture both house-unit spillover disparities and cross-market interactions within an…
Climate policy uncertainty and housing dynamics
As climate change intensifies, frequent shifts in climate strategies and international negotiations have created substantial climate policy uncertainty (CPU). This study examines the effects of CPU on China's housing market, an especially relevant context given China's status as the world's largest carbon emitter and its rapidly evolving climate policy landscape. Using transaction data from 35 major Chinese cities (2010–2022) and panel fixed-effe…

Land rights, resource allocation and urban settlement choices of migrant workers in Yunnan, Western China
Using the cross-sectional data from the 2015 and 2021 Yunnan Migrant Workers Urban Integration Survey , this study assesses the different effects of the three types of land rights that migrant workers possess in their rural hometowns on their urban settlement choices in Yunnan, western China. Specifically, it examined the existence of migrant workers moving between urban and rural areas in response to the importance of land rights for rural migra…
Residential segregation of Chinese minority groups in Greater Sydney
Over the years, migration to the major cities of advanced economies has culminated in residential segregation for minority groups. These segregated communities often have differing driving forces and demographic characteristics. Greater Sydney, for instance, has been home to waves of immigrants, particularly from China, making the Chinese the third-largest immigrant group in Australia as of 2021. This resulted in the formation of Chinese enclaves…
Entry affordability of employment types
With the prevailing uncertainties in the labour market, existing literature has not adequately covered the link between employment contracts of part-time and full-time employees with entry to the housing market. We examine the current entry affordability of these income earners for strata and non-strata property types using data from 2004 to 2021 and forecasted this index for the period 2022Q1 to 2031Q4 for each of the metropolis of three cities …
Reducing clients’ influence in property valuation
Clients' influence remains a significant issue in the property valuation industry, particularly in emerging countries like Nigeria, where existing solutions have proven ineffective. This study, therefore, considers blockchain technology as a medium for delivering information transparency and explores the application of a blockchain-based tool for reducing clients' influence in property valuation. Specifically, this study is pioneering in proposin…
Exploring the spatialisation of the performance of residential Reits investment and direct investment in the housing market
Despite numerous studies about the housing sector, the connection between the performance of residential real estate investment trusts (REITs) investment and direct investment in the housing market is still under-researched. To help fill this gap, we used quarterly data of the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) residential REITs index and direct housing returns of Australia and its major cities, spanning March 1983 to June 2021, and adopted a s…
The determinants of homeownership affordability in Greater Sydney
Recognising the existence of socio-economic and demographic disparities across metropolitan cities such as Greater Sydney, this study gauges the determinants of homeownership affordability in the different regions of Greater Sydney using local government area (LGA) data over 1991–2016 with a system generalised method of moments (GMM) and a panel error correction model (ECM). The results of the study showed that the determinants of homeownership a…

Spatial connectivity and house price diffusion
Housing price bubbles in Greater Sydney
Recognising the rapid increase in housing prices and the presence of socio-economic and demographic disparities that often characterise a metropolitan city, we adopted a sub-city approach and deployed an array of methods to detect bubbles in the different regions of Greater Sydney – western, inner-west, southern, eastern and northern – over 1991 to 2016, using Westerlund error correction-based panel cointegration, backward supremum augmented Dick…

House price diffusion of housing submarkets in Greater Sydney
Despite numerous studies investigating house price diffusion between regional cities, few have considered a spillover effect among housing submarkets within a metropolitan city. This study expands upon the limited literature to examine house price diffusion of housing submarkets (namely, low-priced and high-priced submarkets) in Greater Sydney, one of the most diverse housing markets in Australia, using convergence tests, cointegration techniques…
Spatial mismatch, enclave effects and employment outcomes for rural migrant workers
The differential geography of housing affordability in Sydney
Despite extensive studies being devoted to housing affordability in Australia, few have investigated housing affordability at a disaggregated level. This is in spite of the fact that there are existing socio-economic and demographic disparities across different regions of a city. This study aims to fill this gap by examining housing affordability in Sydney, a city that is characterised by diverse demographic and socio-economic mix, from a sub-cit…
The Politics of Foreign Investment in Australian Housing
This article analyses the cultural, housing and intergovernmental politics of individual foreign investment in Australian real estate. The first section provides a brief history of Australia's housing system and shows the historical trend toward housing affordability 'problems' in Sydney and Melbourne. This review interrogates the claim Chinese investors compounded Australia's housing affordability problem after the global financial crisis. The s…
The Relationship between Housing Market Intervention for First-Time Buyers and House Price Volatility
Declining homeownership rates as observed in many western countries have direct and indirect implications for the broader economy; hence, governments have been seeking an effective solution to address this decline. One of the major challenges is the decline in overall homeownership rates with an increasing proportion of households deciding to rent rather than purchase. However, it is surprising that the impact on the housing market following the …
