Tasmania

Tasmania as a whole. The state releases the bond lodgements rather than a median, so this figure is the middle of all of them and is ours, not the publisher's.

Computed by APRIQ

The median new lease in Tasmania was $520 a week in June quarter 2026, across 4,038 new leases. That is our figure, not the publisher's: Tasmania releases the bond lodgements and no median, so this is the middle of all 4,038 of them, not an average of the suburbs below.

It is up 11.8% on a year earlier.

From approval to completed home

Every stage between permission and a home somebody can live in, for Tasmania. An approval is the weakest evidence in this chain and a completion is the strongest — only the last line counts dwellings that exist.

Approved pipeline not yet started19%of everything approved and unfinished at March quarter 2026

Dwellings were started at 101% of the rate they were approved over the twelve months to March 2026.

Fewer were finished than started (95% as many), so the number under construction grew.

What is under construction represents about 1.0 years of building at the current rate of completions.

These are counts of activity in a period, not a cohort. The Australian Bureau of Statistics does not publish which approvals became which commencements, so none of these figures says what share of any particular approvals was built.
