The AUKUS defence partnership is set to be a game-changer for Perth’s economy and property market!

Today, I delve into how billions of dollars in federal and state investment will flow into Western Australia over the next decade, transforming HMAS Stirling and the new Henderson naval precinct into major hubs of activity.

I break down how this unprecedented investment is already rippling through Perth’s southern suburbs from Rockingham and Safety Bay to Waikiki, Shoalwater, and Baldivis, where demand for housing is tightening fast. For investors, this could mean above-average capital growth and rental yields, particularly in established coastal areas near these hubs.

We also unpack the timeline of the AUKUS rollout — from early training programs and naval visits to the arrival of Australia’s first nuclear submarines in the 2030s.

If you’re keen to understand how this will shape the next decade for WA property and where the smart money’s heading, let’s go inside.

Thrilled With the Sale Experience!

Living in the Melbourne, we had to fully rely on the agency handling the sale of the property. We are thrilled with Investors Edge Real Estate in the way they handled: the marketing, negotiating with the tenant, the time on market and of course the sale! We are looking forward to using their services again.
