Forbes Real Estate Market Outlook

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 Forbes 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 Forbes provides good demand. The lower than average housing turnover of these people also means fewer regular listings leading to periodic large price increases. Medium density in Forbes necessitates a mix of lifestyle options for housing, shops, open areas, and facilties. Where this is available, demand is high and growth ensured. With very low industrial sector presence in Forbes the focus is on lifestyle, driving specific demand around facilities, services, and open space. Most people are employed in service sectors with a higher than average proportion being able to work from home. This may incease demand over the medium term.
