Preston Real Estate Market Outlook

Thinking about buying in Preston? Now could not be a better time, with just 107 residential dwellings it's a highly sought after location. The average property price in this area is in the region of $409,000 with prices in this suburb ranging from $73,000 to $1,114,000. The aproximate distance to the coast is 12 Km.

Consistent high demand relative to supply is a key feature in Preston driving regular price increases. Recent rapid price increases however may constrain future growth by limiting demand. Incomes in Preston are above average indicating a preference for good quality housing and lifestyle. That ensures consistent price growth. The high percentage of professional people in Preston classifies the area as "gentrified". This implies high demand for quality housing, generally of larger than average size. Price growth is ensured even where the state affordability index is negatively impacting other areas. High density population in Preston 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. Higher than average industry presence in the wider area offering local employment yet with not a large negative impact on local amenity, provides good demand and price growth.
