The conclusion:

The performance across price segments highlights why it is so important to drill down below the capital city boundaries in order to truly understand housing market conditions.  Prospective home buyers and sellers should be looking at the dynamic of the housing market from a localised perspective ensuring they are in tune with market conditions at both the macro and micro level.

The same can also be said of the share market. Looking at the Australian market this year there has been good growth in high yielding stocks with mining stocks fairing less well.
