Blue Mountains Real Estate Market Outlook
Good balance between supply and demand ensures a range of affordable options within budget limits. Recent increases in listings may provide buying opportunities. Low average incomes in Blue Mountains is reflected in smaller and lower quality accommodation. Over time this may change providsing long-term returns but in the short to medium term, prices are likely to be less than state averages. The slightly lower than average earnings from occupations in Blue Mountains changes the housing and lifestyle preference. It is more a matter of what can be afforded rather than what would we prefer, leading to slower price increases over time. Low population density implies low demand and limits housing choices and price increases. Could be a good entry point for first home buyers needing to somehow get into the market. With very low industrial sector presence in Blue Mountains the focus is on lifestyle, driving specific demand around facilities, services, and open space. Most people are employed in service sectors with a higher than average proportion being able to work from home. This may incease demand over the medium term.
The Blue Mountains is a region located on the outskirts of Sydney’s metropolitan area in New South Wales. Named for the vast mountain range which comprises its terrain, it is home to a number of major towns, including Katkoomba, the largest settlement in the region. IT is serviced by the Great Western Highway and the Main Western railway. The entire mountain range was unanimously listed as a UNESCO world heritage site in 2000, and with a population of 79000 several of the towns there are quite sizeable and offer stunning views. Historically the Blue Mountains had been inhabited for thousands of years by the Gundungurra people before Western settlers arrived, and there is still a significant aboriginal presence in the Blue Mountains.
The area enjoys a lot of tourism due to a number of attractions including the Three Sisters, a world-famous rock formation that is considered a major landmark, and the Edge Cinema, offering panoramic views of the region to visitors. Property in the Blue Mountains is cheaper than that in Sydney despite the beautiful vistas, proximity to the city and excellent transport links. Due to its status as a mountainous region, much of the surrounding terrain is difficult to traverse, leading to almost all inhabitants of the region being located a very small distance from town centres.
