EP. 12 | WA – State of Investment | Property Market Outlook 2026

Most investors are still asking the same question about Western Australia.

Has Perth already peaked or is there still room for growth in 2026?

In Episode 12 of The Property Portfolio Podcast, Parag, Julius & Mudit break down what is really happening across Perth and regional WA and why many investors are now turning their attention west.

With Perth house prices approaching the $980,000 mark, rising rents, limited housing supply and strong migration, Western Australia continues to attract investors looking for both rental return and long term growth.

The conversation also covers regional hotspots including Bunbury and Geraldton, where strong rental demand, infrastructure activity and mining-led employment continue to support the market.

In this episode we discuss

• Perth property market outlook for 2026

• Why Western Australia is attracting interstate investors

• Perth median house prices and rental trends

Regional Western Australia recorded strong rental movement over the past year and the shortage of available housing continues to place pressure on prices and rents.

The team also discusses why investors should not chase hype blindly and why understanding local economics, supply levels and long term demand matters before entering any market.
