Stanwell Tops Real Estate Market Outlook

Thinking about buying in Stanwell Tops? Now could not be a better time, with just 219 residential dwellings it's a highly sought after location. The average property price in this area is in the region of $1,540,000 with prices in this suburb ranging from $114,000 to $6,585,000. Stanwell Tops 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

Prices are above market average and increase steadily under persistent demand. A more sustainable rate of price growth is anticipated in the short to medium term. Incomes in Stanwell Tops are above average indicating a preference for good quality housing and lifestyle. That ensures consistent price growth. A mix of professions and above average income earners in Stanwell Tops provides good demand. The lower than average housing turnover of these people also means fewer regular listings leading to periodic large price increases. Lower than average population density constrains growth in Stanwell Tops to an extent. However, where buyers are willing to compromise on housing and lifestyle choice, there are affordable options. Lower than average industry presence in Stanwell Tops 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 Stanwell Tops a better buying opportunity than it may have been in the past.
