  "summary": "House hunters in Perth are shifting their priorities when it comes to buying a home. According to reports, they are trading coastal views for larger land parcels, pools, and workshops in outer suburbs like Kalamunda and Mundaring. This trend is driven by a quest for value.\n\nThe change in priorities is consistent across reports from The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald, which both mention the shift towards larger land parcels and amenities like pools and workshops.\n\nThere is no further information available on the current state of the Perth housing market beyond this trend.",
