The prices aren't 'easing' across the board. Sure a lot of overpriced properties have dropped a bit but houses at the lowest end (i.e. the ones first home buyers are after) are still getting more unaffordable

    Also plenty of wealthy buyers who aren't first home buyers will be moving snapping places up while prices are low.

    This is why building affordable homes, of all styles, in all locations is important.
