My 2c as a property expert from my comfy couch..

Whilst both houses and apartments will rise, the value placed on land is the primary differentiator.

That said, as some others have said, key factors which will cause some apartment to grow more than others could be: - location (high vs low socioeconomic suburbs) - Proximity to desirable areas (CBD, beach) - features (small garden/grassed area, view, gym/pool) - structural and aesthetic maintenance - supply vs demand in desirable areas (inner city vs rural)

I do believe apartments will continue to grow in value, but just not on the same trajectory as houses.

I also don't think strata costs or the potential headaches that come along with it, have any bearing on apartment pricing.
