383 - Carlisle Suburb Update ft. Matthew Jones

Host, Trent Fleskens, notes Perth listings have finally topped 3,000 after 17 weeks, though the market remains in chronic undersupply; a recent rate rise linked to Strait of Hormuz tensions is expected to slow, not stop, Perth growth due to relatively better affordability than Sydney. He’s joined by Carlisle’s long-time top agent Matthew Jones to review the suburb’s transformation since 2019, with the median rising from about $505,000 to $923,000 and larger family homes and land-heavy sites driving outsized gains. They discuss Carlisle’s location and transport advantages, school options, price differences within the suburb, shifting buyer mix (including owner-occupiers, first home buyers and investors), limited East-coast investor influence locally, renewed development-site sales, and how the 5% scheme briefly lifted the price floor.
