Forresters Beach Real Estate Market Outlook

Thinking about buying in Forresters Beach? Now could not be a better time, with 1736 residential properties there's certainly plenty to choose from. The average property price in this area is in the region of $1,685,000 with prices in this suburb ranging from $109,000 to $41,830,000. Forresters Beach is located very near to the coast so expect stunning views of the ocean and access to beaches. Demand is likely to be very strong in this location which will support higher prices

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 Forresters Beach 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 Forresters Beach provides good demand. The lower than average housing turnover of these people also means fewer regular listings leading to periodic large price increases. 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 Forresters Beach 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 Forresters Beach a better buying opportunity than it may have been in the past.
