Rate cut before Easter could spark autumn selling season - Raine & Horne Group Despite ongoing economic headwinds, Raine & Horne Executive Chairman Mr Angus E. Raine is confident about the future of Australia's $11 trillion property market in 2025. National home values rose 5.5% year-on-year in November 2024, marking 22 months of consecutive growth and despite persistently high interest rates. “Demand remains strong, but the supply of properties is constrained by factors such as government red tape, a shortage of skilled tradespeople, and high building costs. This scarcity, combined with sustained buyer demand, is likely to support property growth similar to 2024 into 2025 with growth of 4-6% now in prospect. An early rate cut in 2025 could be the magic catalyst for buyers, finally putting the interest rate genie back in its bottle and sparking them back into property buying mode, “ Angus E. Raine added.
