Hovea Real Estate Market Outlook

Thinking about buying in Hovea? Now could not be a better time, with just 307 residential dwellings it's a highly sought after location. The average property price in this area is in the region of $1,197,000 with prices in this suburb ranging from $584,000 to $2,316,000. The aproximate distance to the coast is 29 Km.

Consistent high demand relative to supply is a key feature in Hovea driving regular price increases. Recent rapid price increases however may constrain future growth by limiting demand. High average incomes in Hovea ensure a focus on quality with a commensurate high entry price under constant demand. Competition for available quality housing is intense with multiple offers likely to be made in excess of asking prices. Low average earnings from people in Hovea leads to lower quality housing which also negatively impacts the provision of facilities. As a consequence this area is often seen as less desirable, with lower quality of housing and slower price growth. Medium density in Hovea necessitates a mix of lifestyle options for housing, shops, open areas, and facilties. Where this is available, demand is high and growth ensured. High industry presence in the wider area is a double-edged sword. While local employment options are high, the presence of industrial buildings may negatively impact lifestyle perception. Demand from first home buyers and investors however ensures good price growth.
