Crestwood Real Estate Market Outlook

Thinking about buying in Crestwood? Now could not be a better time, with 3338 residential properties there's certainly plenty to choose from. The average property price in this area is in the region of $652,000 with prices in this suburb ranging from $130,000 to $6,976,000. The aproximate distance to the coast is 95 Km.

In Crestwood 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 Crestwood due to other areas being out of the price range and the trend to working from home, "gentrification" may incease price growth. The slightly lower than average earnings from occupations in Crestwood 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. Lower than average population density constrains growth in Crestwood 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 Crestwood 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 Crestwood a better buying opportunity than it may have been in the past.
