Maaroom Real Estate Market Outlook

Thinking about buying in Maaroom? Now could not be a better time, with just 253 residential dwellings it's a highly sought after location. The average property price in this area is in the region of $327,000 with prices in this suburb ranging from $92,000 to $646,000. Maaroom is located very near to the coast so expect stunning views of the ocean and access to beaches. Demand is likely to be very strong in this location which will support higher prices

In Maaroom there has been a history of lower than average prices and demand, offering opportunities for investors or first home owners, especially in the context of the growth in working from home. Low average incomes in Maaroom 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 Maaroom 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 Maaroom 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 Maaroom 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 Maaroom a better buying opportunity than it may have been in the past.
