Bayswater Real Estate Market Outlook

Thinking about buying in Bayswater? Now could not be a better time, with 9465 residential properties there's certainly plenty to choose from. The average property price in this area is in the region of $993,000 with prices in this suburb ranging from $321,000 to $3,579,000. The aproximate distance to the coast is 22 Km.

Good balance between supply and demand ensures a range of affordable options within budget limits. Recent increases in listings may provide buying opportunities. Incomes in Bayswater are above average indicating a preference for good quality housing and lifestyle. That ensures consistent price growth. A mix of professions and above average income earners in Bayswater 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 Bayswater 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 Bayswater 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 Bayswater a better buying opportunity than it may have been in the past.
