Our latest suite of InfoCards is available to view or download from our Insights Page. 

Our  Apartment Inflation InfoCard was released earlier this year and identified that the construction cost for a standard 2-bed apartment had increased by 14% in the previous 2 years. The majority of this inflation was in 2021 when material cost spikes were widespread. 

We have updated this study to account for the movement in 1H 2022. Please see below the side by side comparison with the main movers identified.
