Australia's tumbling house prices are set for another rough 12 months but will rebound at the end of next year, according to a real estate expert.

Veteran real estate agent John McGrath said the housing market's downturn will continue into 2019 with more than 10 per cent falls in Sydney and Melbourne.

'I think it will be double-digit (falls in Sydney and Melbourne peak to trough) and there is few per cent to go. It feels like we haven't reached rock bottom,' Mr McGrath told The Weekend Australian.

In Melbourne, meanwhile, the water-facing suburb of Bonbeach (pictured) is Mr McGrath his hot-tip for soaring prices in the next year

But with next year's federal election expected to give more clarity to housing policy, including in areas such as negative gearing, Mr McGrath said he expected prices to increase by as much four per cent by year's end.

He also named his suburbs to watch in some of Australia's major population areas - Sydney, Brisbane and its surrounds, Melbourne and Canberra.

Topping the Sydney list in his annual report were the gentrified neighbouring suburbs of Putney and Hunters Hill, as well as Avalon Beach, Palm Beach and Maroubra.
