Free Property Intelligence Platform Launches for Australian Homebuyers and Investors
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
AustralianPropertyForum.com brings professional-grade market data, suburb analytics, and in-depth analysis to everyday Australians — at no cost
SYDNEY, 5 April 2026 — Australian Property Forum (APF) has today launched at AustralianPropertyForum.com, a free property intelligence platform giving Australian homebuyers and investors access to the kind of market data previously reserved for professionals with expensive subscriptions.
Built on a domain with over 15 years of history in the Australian property community, APF aggregates live property news, tracks RBA interest rate decisions in real time, publishes suburb-level market data across 329 Australian locations, and generates daily market analysis — all in one place, for free.
What APF Offers
Live Property News APF aggregates property news from realestate.com.au, the Sydney Morning Herald, The Age, ABC News, Property Update, Smart Property Investment, and Your Investment Property Magazine — updated every 15 minutes and filtered to show only relevant property, lending, and market content.
RBA Rate Tracker The platform tracks the RBA cash rate in real time, displays a full 24-month rate history chart, counts down to the next board meeting, and shows current market expectations. With the RBA cash rate at 4.1% and the next meeting 30 days away, the tool gives buyers and investors immediate visibility over the interest rate environment affecting their borrowing capacity.
Suburb Intelligence APF has indexed 329 Australian suburbs across every state and territory, with full market data — median house price, median unit price, annual growth, rental yield, and vacancy rate — available for key suburbs including Sydney CBD, Bondi, Melbourne CBD, Brisbane CBD, Gold Coast, Fremantle, and Canberra. Coverage is expanding monthly.
Property Calculators Three free calculators help buyers understand their financial position: a mortgage repayment calculator, a stamp duty calculator covering all states and territories, and a borrowing power calculator based on APRA's 3% serviceability buffer. All calculations are client-side and instant.
Property Intelligence Articles APF publishes four market analysis articles daily across four categories: RBA & Macro, Sydney & Melbourne Markets, National Property, and Property Finance. Each article is grounded in live news data and reviewed against factual accuracy standards before publication.
Why APF Was Built
"Professional property data has always been locked behind expensive subscriptions," said a spokesperson for Australian Property Forum. "CoreLogic, PriceFinder, and similar platforms charge hundreds of dollars a month — well beyond what most first home buyers or self-managing investors can justify. APF was built to change that. The same intelligence that property professionals access every day should be available to anyone trying to make one of the biggest financial decisions of their life."
