From the Managing Director Introducing the journey behind the name, and the people behind the journey.

A brand is not built on a name. It is built on the people who carry it forward.

As we launch the very first issue of Outlook, I find myself reflecting on what this rebrand truly means, not just for Rabbitree as a business, but for all of us who shape it day by day.

Stepping out with a new identity is bold, but our intention is not to impress. It is to align.

Align with who we are, how we think, and what we believe real estate should feel like.

This magazine is a window into our world, our work, and our way of seeing the property journey. In the pages that follow, you will meet the team behind the transition, discover the principles that guide us, and see how we aim to build something lasting — not just in bricks and mortar, but in relationships and trust.

To everyone who has walked this path with us — clients, colleagues, friends, thank you. This is a new beginning, and we are glad you are here with us.

Market in Motion Each month, we track the forces driving Victoria and Melbourne’s property markets.

From sales trends to buyer behaviour, rental shifts to policy changes, here’s a concise overview of August’s activity and what it signals for the months ahead.

Sources: CoreLogic, REIV, Domain, SQM Research, The Guardian, The Australian

1. Interest rate cut

3. Home values inch upward for sixth month

On 12 August 2025, the RBA lowered the cash rate by 25 basis points from 3.85% to 3.60%, marking the third cut this year. The RBA signaled that further reductions could follow in the coming year, depending on economic data.

Melbourne dwelling values rose by approximately 0.4% in July, marking the sixth consecutive month of growth. Since the recovery began in February after the rate cuts, cumulative gains reach around 2.8%.

4. Rental vacancy remains tight but stabilising

2. Auction clearance rates remain strong In August, Melbourne’s auction clearance rates stayed strong—hovering around 71% in the latter half of the month. This reflects continued strong buyer demand and stable selling conditions, with confidence further supported by the anticipation of lower interest rates.

National rental vacancy dropped to 1.2% in July, while Melbourne sits slightly higher at 1.8%, indicating persistent but slightly easing supply pressure.

5. Rental prices continue climbing In Melbourne, house rents increased 4.1% year-onyear, while unit rents rose 3.3%, putting further pressure on renters.

6. Apartment rentals and vacancy snapshot Inner-city apartment median rents rose 4.3% to about $600 per week, while vacancy remains below long-term averages (~2.8%)—a sign of demand resilience.

7. Outperformed growth in regional Victoria Regional Victoria, especially centres like Geelong and Ballarat, continues to outperform metro growth, supported by affordability and lifestyle trends.

This Month’s Tip What you need to know, before you go.

Preparing for the Spring Selling Season With Melbourne’s traditional spring selling season just weeks away, both buyers and sellers can take strategic steps now to gain a competitive advantage in the upcoming active market.

Buyers: Secure loan pre-approval early, enabling you to move decisively as new listings surge in the coming weeks.

Sellers: Prepare Section 32 statements promptly and consider professional styling or essential repairs to enhance appeal before listing your property.

Everyone:

Pro tip:

Closely monitor auction clearance rates and interest rate movements—these key indicators significantly influence market sentiment and buyer confidence throughout the season.

Homes that launch in early spring often attract stronger competition, as buyers are eager for fresh listings after winter.

Sold Story Spotlight Behind every result is a story worth telling

Yvonne Zhao Transforming Challenges into Triumphs, The Precision Approach to Property Sales

When other agents see a challenge, Yvonne Zhao sees potential. Specialising in transforming stagnant listings—properties that have languished on the market for months without interest—she achieves what many deem impossible: swift, record-breaking sales.

One South Melbourne apartment had been listed for over a year with another agent, generating zero offers. The vendors were losing hope. Upon taking over the listing, Yvonne shifted the strategy to highlight the property’s investment potential rather than its lifestyle appeal. The revamped approach attracted six serious buyers, culminating in an unconditional offer within just one week.

29

“Turning challenges into

Then came a Hawthorn East apartment trapped on the market for 15 months due to significant cladding concerns. Rather than avoiding the issue, Yvonne conducted thorough research, reconnected with the owners’ corporation, and collaboratively identified a clear solution. By transparently addressing the problem and presenting a resolved path forward, she restored market confidence. The result was a record-breaking sale to a first-home buyer—achieving the highest price ever for a onebedroom apartment in the building.

opportunities, one property at a time.

“It’s about applying the right strategy, fresh marketing, and genuine buyer engagement,” says Yvonne. “Every property has untapped potential—it just takes the right approach to unlock it.”

Khoa Nguyen Market Momentum Returns, Buyer Confidence Fuels Record Sales

“Where others see Melbourne's property market is witnessing a significant resurgence in buyer confidence, according to local agent Khoa Nguyen of Rabbitree Real Estate. After a challenging period where engaged buyers were scarce, the past months have seen a dramatic shift, with properties now selling faster and for stronger prices.

obstacles, I see opportunities.

”

Khoa highlights a remarkable turnaround from six months ago, when securing solid offers was difficult.

Today, buyers are not only ready to purchase but are frequently making unconditional offers at the higher end of pricing—sometimes even exceeding advertised ranges. This renewed momentum follows recent interest rate cuts and reflects growing optimism in the market.

A standout example is Khoa’s recent sale of a twobedroom apartment in Camberwell. Through an expressions of interest campaign, the property attracted over 60 buyers, resulting in multiple competitive offers. The apartment was sold prior to the campaign deadline, achieving an outstanding price for the vendor and securing a desirable outcome for the buyer. The entire process took just 17 days.

“The market is definitely back,” says Khoa. “Buyers are acting with conviction, and that energy is creating great opportunities for both sellers and investors.”

Cracking the Code: Smarter Mortgage Strategies for Property Investors Industry insight from Marc Wang, Mortgage Strategist & CEO of 1989 Capital In today’s fast-moving property market, having the right mortgage strategy is just as important as choosing the right property.

Whether you’re a first-time investor or managing a growing portfolio, how your loan is structured can significantly affect your cash flow, tax efficiency, and ability to scale.

We spoke with Marc Wang, CEO of boutique mortgage firm 1989 Capital, to unpack the most common questions investors should be asking — and the pitfalls they should be avoiding.

Q: What’s one mistake even experienced investors make when it comes to their loans?

Q: How often should investors revisit their mortgage setup?

A: They treat their mortgage like a one-time transaction, rather than a tool that evolves with their portfolio. A lot of people chase the lowest interest rate — and ignore how their loan is structured. Poor loan design can limit future borrowing, create tax inefficiencies, and expose you to unnecessary risks.

It’s not just about price — it’s about strategy.

A: Ideally, once a year — or whenever your circumstances change. That includes new purchases, major life events, or market shifts. Your loan should adapt with your portfolio. Even small tweaks — like changing repayment types or refinancing for equity access — can unlock new opportunities.

Q: Interest Only or Principal & Interest — how do you choose?

Q: Structuring for tax benefits: what should investors know?

A: It comes down to your investment goals. Interest Only helps preserve cash flow — great if you’re aggressively growing or renovating. But P&I builds equity and typically comes with sharper rates. A common approach we recommend is keeping your investment debt Interest Only and aggressively paying down your owner-occupied loan. That way, you optimise both cash flow and tax effectiveness.

A: Strategy and structure go hand in hand. For example, you want to preserve tax deductibility on investment loans by not mixing them with owneroccupied debt. Loan splits, offset accounts, and avoiding cross-collateralisation can make a big difference. And it’s crucial your broker works closely with your accountant to get this right.

Q: Equity release — smart strategy or overused buzzword?

Q: Should investors fix their rate in this market?

A: Done right, it’s a very smart move. Releasing equity from an existing property can fund your next purchase without dipping into savings. But it needs to be backed by a clear plan. What’s the yield?

What’s your debt-to-income ratio post-settlement?

It’s about smart leverage, not overextending.

37

A: Fixed rates offer predictability — but come at the cost of flexibility. If you're planning to hold and not make extra repayments, fixing part of your loan might make sense. A split loan — part fixed, part variable — gives you the best of both worlds. But again, it needs to align with your personal and investment timeline.

Smarter Lending, Built Around You Whether you’re just starting out or scaling to your fifth property, the right mortgage strategy is a game-changer.

At 1989 Capital, we don’t just write loans, we partner with clients to build long-term, resilient lending plans.

More Than Paperwork:

Why Conveyancing Matters When buying or selling property, it is easy to focus on the price, the styling, or the big milestones. But behind every successful transaction is a layer of legal groundwork that makes it possible, and that part is often overlooked.

Conveyancing is not just paperwork. It is what protects your rights, ensures your money moves securely, and prevents costly legal issues down the track.

What does a conveyancer actually do?

A conveyancer ensures that the legal transfer of property ownership is clear, complete, and compliant. They review contracts, identify risks, coordinate with banks and councils, and make sure settlement happens smoothly.

What could go wrong without the right help?

Delays, unpaid rates, zoning surprises, building notices, or missed contract clauses, these are just a few of the risks when conveyancing is handled poorly or overlooked entirely.

What should you look for in a conveyancer?

Choose someone who is experienced, communicative, licensed, and detail-focused. A good conveyancer should make complex things feel simple, not the other way around.
