Patonga Real Estate Market Outlook

Thinking about buying in Patonga? Now could not be a better time, with just 333 residential dwellings it's a highly sought after location. The average property price in this area is in the region of $1,597,000 with prices in this suburb ranging from $143,000 to $6,196,000. Patonga is located very near to the coast so expect stunning views of the ocean and access to beaches. Demand is likely to be very strong in this location which will support higher prices

In Patonga there has been a history of lower than average prices and demand, offering opportunities for investors or first home owners, especially in the context of the growth in working from home. In this area of average incomes, there is a mix of housing size and quality. While this may present buying opportunities, growth may be constrained. As buyers begin to examine Patonga due to other areas being out of the price range and the trend to working from home, "gentrification" may incease price growth. The high percentage of professional people in Patonga classifies the area as "gentrified". This implies high demand for quality housing, generally of larger than average size. Price growth is ensured even where the state affordability index is negatively impacting other areas. High density population in Patonga requires consistent turnover in housing ensuring constant demand. Housing styles may be a mix of low, medium, and high density, providing choice for well-financed buyers and value growth over time. Lower than average industry presence in Patonga we believe will be less of a negative impact than it has in the past. Post-COVID and the growth in working from home has lessened the demand for local employment options. This may make Patonga a better buying opportunity than it may have been in the past.
