The housing market in Budgong has traditionally been characterized by a mix of rural charm and natural beauty, with properties often boasting expansive land and scenic views. In recent years, the market has seen a moderate increase in activity as more people seek to escape the hustle and bustle of urban living in favor of more tranquil settings. This has resulted in a gradual appreciation in property values, although the area remains relatively affordable compared to larger urban centers. The rural setting of Budgong ensures that homes often come with larger plots, providing ample space for gardens, outdoor activities, and maintaining a peaceful, private household.

Budgong Real Estate Market Outlook

Thinking about buying in Budgong? Now could not be a better time, with just 88 residential dwellings it's a highly sought after location. The average property price in this area is in the region of $1,737,000 with prices in this suburb ranging from $139,000 to $3,061,000. The aproximate distance to the coast is 19 Km.

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 Budgong 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 Budgong 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. Lower than average industry presence in Budgong 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 Budgong a better buying opportunity than it may have been in the past.
