Melbourne leads the 20 year price growth, but Darwin wins over past decade: Onthehouse
Melbourne leads the 20 year house price growth with annualised 8.16% price growth, but Darwin wins over past decade, the latest data from OnTheHouse suggests.
It is the same outcome for units too.
The latest statistics reveal that recent annual growth in the Melbourne house market shot up 8.18% in the year to May 2015, which is a dollar increase of about $55,000.
While this is a far cry from the $160,000 value growth in its Sydney counterpart, it represents a rapid increase in values.

Growth in Melbourne seems to have peaked at the beginning of 2014, with growth gradually trending down from this peak, Eliza Owen at OnTheHouse reports.
"It is still unclear if growth in Sydney has peaked," she said.
