The Pocket Real Estate Market Outlook

Thinking about buying in The Pocket? Now could not be a better time, with just 120 residential dwellings it's a highly sought after location. The average property price in this area is in the region of $1,716,000 with prices in this suburb ranging from $311,000 to $3,691,000. The Pocket is located fairly close to the coast at just 4Km so as well as great views of the ocean and access to beaches, demand and valuations are likely to be a bit higher here.

Living in The Pocket

Good balance between supply and demand ensures a range of affordable options within budget limits. Recent increases in listings may provide buying opportunities. Low average incomes in The Pocket is reflected in smaller and lower quality accommodation. Over time this may change providsing long-term returns but in the short to medium term, prices are likely to be less than state averages. The slightly lower than average earnings from occupations in The Pocket 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. Lower than average population density constrains growth in The Pocket 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 The Pocket 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 The Pocket a better buying opportunity than it may have been in the past.
