About Balga - Mirrabooka

With an average age of 32, households expect an average monthly mortgage payment of $1,394 or a weekly rent payment of $320. The average family earns a weekly income of $1,468 with a typical household size of 2.5 and a 90.1% employment rate.

In Balga 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. 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 Balga 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 Balga 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. High density population in Balga 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. High industry presence in the wider area is a double-edged sword. While local employment options are high, the presence of industrial buildings may negatively impact lifestyle perception. Demand from first home buyers and investors however ensures good price growth.
