Ogmore, in Livingstone, QLD, is a small, rural locality that offers a unique housing market largely characterized by more affordable and spacious properties compared to urban areas. The housing market in Ogmore is typically quieter and less competitive, often appealing to buyers looking for larger plots of land or those interested in a rural lifestyle. Properties here can range from older, established homes to larger lots that might attract someone interested in self-sufficient living or hobby farming. Due to its rural setting, the market is less volatile, and prices tend to remain stable, which can be attractive to long-term investors or families looking for a permanent residence. However, because of its size and remote nature, the housing options are not as diverse or plentiful as in more populated areas.
Living in Ogmore offers a peaceful lifestyle, with a tight-knit community feel that many residents find appealing. The locality is surrounded by natural beauty, with ample opportunities for outdoor activities such as hiking, bird watching, and exploring the nearby national parks. This quiet setting is ideal for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and enjoy a more laid-back, country lifestyle. However, being a rural area, amenities and facilities might be limited, requiring travel to nearby towns for extensive shopping, healthcare, and education services. The slower pace and simplicity of life in Ogmore may not suit everyone, but for those who value tranquility and a close connection with nature, it provides a unique and cherished living experience.

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 Ogmore 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 Ogmore 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. Medium density in Ogmore necessitates a mix of lifestyle options for housing, shops, open areas, and facilties. Where this is available, demand is high and growth ensured. Lower than average industry presence in Ogmore 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 Ogmore a better buying opportunity than it may have been in the past.
