The area is known for its agricultural charm, with properties often boasting large plots, gardens, or small-scale farming opportunities, which is attractive for families and retirees seeking space and tranquility. Over recent years, Iredale and the broader Lockyer Valley have seen modest growth in the property market, spurred by an increasing interest in rural and semi-rural living inspired by lifestyle changes. This trend is partially driven by the affordability of properties compared to major city centres, making Iredale a viable option for first-home buyers or those looking to invest in larger land areas.

Iredale Real Estate Market Outlook

Thinking about buying in Iredale? Now could not be a better time, with just 114 residential dwellings it's a highly sought after location. The average property price in this area is in the region of $728,000 with prices in this suburb ranging from $474,000 to $1,267,000. The aproximate distance to the coast is 96 Km.

Good balance between supply and demand ensures a range of affordable options within budget limits. Recent increases in listings may provide buying opportunities. Low average incomes in Iredale is reflected in smaller and lower quality accommodation. Over time this may change providsing long-term returns but in the short to medium term, prices are likely to be less than state averages. The slightly lower than average earnings from occupations in Iredale 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. High density population in Iredale requires consistent turnover in housing ensuring constant demand. Housing styles may be a mix of low, medium, and high density, providing choice for well-financed buyers and value growth over time. Lower than average industry presence in Iredale 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 Iredale a better buying opportunity than it may have been in the past.
