Kongorong Real Estate Market Outlook

Thinking about buying in Kongorong? Now could not be a better time, with just 201 residential dwellings it's a highly sought after location. The average property price in this area is in the region of $414,000 with prices in this suburb ranging from $65,000 to $698,000. Kongorong 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. 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 Kongorong due to other areas being out of the price range and the trend to working from home, "gentrification" may incease price growth. Low average earnings from people in Kongorong 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 Kongorong necessitates a mix of lifestyle options for housing, shops, open areas, and facilties. Where this is available, demand is high and growth ensured. With very low industrial sector presence in Kongorong the focus is on lifestyle, driving specific demand around facilities, services, and open space. Most people are employed in service sectors with a higher than average proportion being able to work from home. This may incease demand over the medium term.
