Housing Outlooks
Each quarter, our Housing Outlooks provide a detailed analysis of national and state-specific home building and renovations activity. This data is collected from our membership base who are responsible for more than 80% of Australia’s residential construction work each year.
HIA creates a significant library of expert-led reports specifically designed for builders and business owners in the residential building industry. Our Housing 100 series and New Home Sales Reports are HIA-exclusive and are built from data collated from Australia’s largest builders. HIA also produces national and state-specific outlooks, detailed analysis of housing affordability and land statistics, the latest stamp duty developments and much more.
