Glen Eden Real Estate Market Outlook

Thinking about buying in Glen Eden? Now could not be a better time, with 1413 residential properties there's certainly plenty to choose from. The average property price in this area is in the region of $509,000 with prices in this suburb ranging from $57,000 to $2,818,000. Glen Eden is located fairly close to the coast at just 1Km so as well as great views of the ocean and access to beaches, demand and valuations are likely to be a bit higher here.

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 Glen Eden are above average indicating a preference for good quality housing and lifestyle. That ensures consistent price growth. The slightly lower than average earnings from occupations in Glen Eden 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. Medium density in Glen Eden necessitates a mix of lifestyle options for housing, shops, open areas, and facilties. Where this is available, demand is high and growth ensured. Lower than average industry presence in Glen Eden 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 Glen Eden a better buying opportunity than it may have been in the past.
