Perth’s apartment market is gaining traction with units increasing in price by 1.7 per cent in March and 4 per cent in the year, according to Corelogic data.
Western Australia-based developer Blackburne has taken advantage of this with its pandemic-built Marina Waters project selling out and work starting on three other projects around Perth.
The Subiaco development features three buildings targeted at owner-occupiers with a mix of one- to three-bedroom apartments and expansive rooftop amenities.
