Sorted by total, highest first. Every row is indexed to the last quarter complete before the first day in office ("from" marks a start that had to move because that period had no data, or because the period cut it); Australia is measured over the same months. Levels are per cent changes, rates are differences in %; "per year" compounds levels and divides rates. Tenures with under 12 months, or under three observations, are left out. A$, mean price of a residential dwelling · ABS, Total Value of Dwellings (RES_DWELL_ST), mean price of residential dwellings · state or territory data · as of Sep 2026.
