Australia's new home sales rose by 14.8 percent month-over-month to 5,841 units in June 2021, after a 15.2 percent gain in the prior month, amid low interest rates and upbeat market confidence, data from Housing Industry Association showed. In the June quarter, new home sales grew by 15.3 percent, as the trailing impact of the federal government's HomeBuilder grant continues to be felt. "The strength of new home sales nationally suggests that there will be a significant number of new homes entering the pipeline post-HomeBuilder which will ensure activity remains elevated into 2022," HIA Economist Angela Lillicrap said. source: Housing Industry Association (HIA)
