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 Glenrowan due to other areas being out of the price range and the trend to working from home, "gentrification" may incease price growth. A mix of professions and above average income earners in Glenrowan provides good demand. The lower than average housing turnover of these people also means fewer regular listings leading to periodic large price increases.
