Alstonville Real Estate Market Outlook

Thinking about buying in Alstonville? Now could not be a better time, with 3884 residential properties there's certainly plenty to choose from. The average property price in this area is in the region of $933,000 with prices in this suburb ranging from $49,000 to $6,717,000. Alstonville is located fairly close to the coast at just 8Km so as well as great views of the ocean and access to beaches, demand and valuations are likely to be a bit higher here.

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 Alstonville 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. A mix of professions and above average income earners in Alstonville provides good demand. The lower than average housing turnover of these people also means fewer regular listings leading to periodic large price increases. Lower than average population density constrains growth in Alstonville to an extent. However, where buyers are willing to compromise on housing and lifestyle choice, there are affordable options. Lower than average industry presence in Alstonville 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 Alstonville a better buying opportunity than it may have been in the past.
