Median prices in Perth/Peel and country WA have generally trended upwards in the five year period<br />
displayed in Figure 7 with occasional fluctuations, in particularly the low point in <strong>December</strong> 2008. As<br />
an approximate rule, median prices have increased on average by $5000 per quarter in Perth/Peel<br />
and $5,500 per quarter in country WA over the five year period. When considering short term trends,<br />
the data for <strong>2010</strong> shows median prices trending slightly downward in Perth/Peel while remaining<br />
reasonably constant across the rest of the State.<br />
