John McGrath says no chance of a 40% correction in Sydney market

John McGrath, Founder and Executive Director of McGrath, said that he was misquoted today in a report that the Sydney market was 40% overvalued and wishes to clarify his position.

“The Sydney market is most of the way through its sales cycle and very near the top of its cycle. My view is there is no bubble and no chance of a 40% correction.” said Mr McGrath

“The market continues to have strong drivers including deep demand, populations growth, overseas investment and low interest rates. There is a possibility of a small and short correction of a few percent, and I believe that is healthy for the sustainability of the market.

“Yes Sydney is overvalued compared to other areas of Australia, however, it is a world class international city and a major financial centre. I’ve long said that South East Queensland is undervalued and shows great growth potential.”
