What’s next for Melbourne property in 2026?

Budget reaction and emerging opportunities in the next market cycle

Melbourne remains a city that Thai buyers and overseas investors continue to return to for good reason. The city is home to renowned universities, a well-established rental market driven by overseas students each year, on year and a quality of life that holds its own against any major global city.

Price growth here has been more measured than in Sydney or Brisbane over the past few years. For discerning buyers with a longer investment horizon, this gap is worth taking seriously; it points to a window for securing better value before the next growth cycle moves in.

Whether you are building a property portfolio from Thailand or planning a purchase ahead of your child’s studies in Australia, a clear read of current market conditions is important before proceeding and committing.

This session will cover:

• How recent budget announcements can affect the property market
• Why Melbourne has lagged behind other major Australian cities in recent years
• Landed homes vs apartments; comparing the opportunities in both
• Suburbs and property types worth watching in the next cycle
• 2026 Melbourne market updates and outlook

Who should attend:

Thai investors, parents planning for children studying in Australia and overseas buyers considering Melbourne property.
