Wagaman Real Estate Market Outlook

Thinking about buying in Wagaman? Now could not be a better time, with 783 residential properties there's certainly plenty to choose from. Wagaman is located fairly close to the coast at just 2Km so as well as great views of the ocean and access to beaches, demand and valuations are likely to be a bit higher here.

Consistent high demand relative to supply is a key feature in Wagaman driving regular price increases. Recent rapid price increases however may constrain future growth by limiting demand. Incomes in Wagaman are above average indicating a preference for good quality housing and lifestyle. That ensures consistent price growth. The slightly lower than average earnings from occupations in Wagaman 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 Wagaman 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 Wagaman 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 Wagaman a better buying opportunity than it may have been in the past.
