Waterford Real Estate Market Outlook

Thinking about buying in Waterford? Now could not be a better time, with 1110 residential properties there's certainly plenty to choose from. The average property price in this area is in the region of $1,444,000 with prices in this suburb ranging from $378,000 to $4,868,000. The aproximate distance to the coast is 11 Km.

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. High average incomes in Waterford ensure a focus on quality with a commensurate high entry price under constant demand. Competition for available quality housing is intense with multiple offers likely to be made in excess of asking prices. The slightly lower than average earnings from occupations in Waterford 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 Waterford necessitates a mix of lifestyle options for housing, shops, open areas, and facilties. Where this is available, demand is high and growth ensured. 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.
