Southern Highlands Property Update 4th September

Spring has sprung, and so too has the Highlands property market. Increased listings, increased sales and a positive feeling in the air!

 

This week we look at the village of Wingello where property prices are booming up to 43%, what are the real costs of listing your home, open homes: should you leave or stay? Are there still property gems and a real stunner of a Property Showcase in Exeter from Di Jones Real Estate Bowral (pictured!) and much more.

Southern Highlands property market at a glance

Property numbers grow.

Based on real estate property listings on major platforms, there are some 710 properties for sale in the Southern Highlands market, up from some 698 last week. These figures take into account property sales, new listings and, in some instances, properties being removed from the market. 

Increased listings and sales as we head into spring indicate continued strength in the Highlands property market. Visitation to open homes continues to increase with favourable conditions.

Available property profiles:

Houses – 471 

Units – 14 

Townhouses – 18

Land/rural – 129

Home prices peak as momentum accelerates.

According to the latest PropTrack Home Price Index, released on 1 Sept, Australian house prices are set to climb further.

Regional prices climbed 0.3% in August and are up 6.6% year-on-year, outpacing the capitals and maintaining a stronger five-year growth record (65.2% vs 46.0%), bolstered by affordability and lifestyle appeal.

Looking ahead, the combination of lower interest rates, increased borrowing capacities and improved sentiment is expected to continue to drive demand.

Constrained new housing supply, strong population growth and the expansion of the Home Guarantee Scheme from October will also maintain upward pressure on prices.
