3.54%of stock per year
Steady pipeline

Trailing-12-month dwelling approvals divided by the existing Census dwelling stock. Higher means more new homes coming relative to what's already there.

As of Jan 2025

Migration demand

0.47×the equal-share baseline
Below its share

1.0× is the state's fair share of net overseas migration by population. Above 1 means it's pulling more than its weight; below 1 means it's pulling less. State-grain — every SA2 in the same state shares this value.

As of Jan 2024

Approvals vs. completions

+1,438dwellings (trailing year)
Approvals slightly ahead

Trailing-four-quarter dwelling approvals minus completions for the state. Positive means more homes are being approved than finished — a pipeline buffer if delivery keeps pace, a backlog if it doesn't. State-grain — every SA2 in the same state shares this value.

As of Jan 2025

Demand pressure

-0.51z-score (8-state)
Below average

Composite of state-level population growth and net overseas migration z-scores. Higher values = above-average demand pressure for the state. State-grain — every SA2 in the same state shares this value. Doesn't yet include payroll-jobs growth (separate ABS feed pending).

As of Jan 2024

Serviceability direction

+16.32%spread (pp)
Wages clearly ahead

State wage growth (ABS WPI) compared to the national change in housing lending rates (RBA F6 historical). Positive = wages outpacing rates (serviceability easing); negative = rates outpacing wages (tightening). State-grain — every SA2 in the same state shares this value.

Quarterly — most recent quarter both inputs have data for.

As of Jan 2025

Derived from ABS Estimated Resident Population, Census dwelling counts, dwelling approval counts, net overseas migration, the Wage Price Index, and RBA F6 housing lending rates. Published by the platform's metrics orchestrator on each upstream release.

Roadmap signals

Two more derived metrics are defined in the platform and waiting on upstream-data orchestration. Each will populate here once its source series is wired through.

Affordability trend

Coming soon

RPPI year-on-year divided by WPI year-on-year. Above 1.0 means home prices are outpacing wages; below 1.0 means wages are catching up.

Awaiting: ABS RPPI (6432.0) + WPI (6345.0) GCCSA-grain orchestration.

Rent–price momentum spread

Coming soon

CPI rents year-on-year minus RPPI year-on-year. Positive means rents are gaining on prices; negative means prices are running ahead of rents.

Awaiting: ABS CPI rents component + RPPI orchestration.
