Prices are above market average and increase steadily under persistent demand. A more sustainable rate of price growth is anticipated in the short to medium term. Incomes in Croudace Bay 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 Croudace Bay 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 Croudace Bay 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 Croudace Bay 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 Croudace Bay a better buying opportunity than it may have been in the past.
