The Procore / Property Council Industry Sentiment Survey is critical research that supports the Property Council’s advocacy work for you and enables us to influence decision-makers.
The data collected assesses the property industry’s sentiments about the outlook for Australia’s national and state economies, views on property asset class performance, employment intentions, expected workflows and critical industry drivers.
In partnership with Procore, the global leader in construction management software, we are committed to equipping the industry with valuable insights that support informed decision-making and future planning.

Property Council Chief Executive Mike Zorbas said confidence in the domestic industry is rising as economic growth expectations recover and the industry anticipates more interest rate cuts.
“The Procore/Property Council sentiment survey shows that in the run-up to ‘Liberation Day’ the industry has been growing in confidence, especially following the RBA’s recent interest rate cut,” Mr Zorbas said.
“Recent global events are a timely reminder of the fundamentals.
“Investors are still screening for the most stable risk-adjusted returns. Australia retains stabilising institutional checks and balances, good demographics and raw materials aplenty.
“At the same time, property is a capital-intensive industry. Now more than ever, we need to use other peoples’ money to build our cities,” he said.
