Coombs Real Estate Market Outlook

Thinking about buying in Coombs? Now could not be a better time, with 2954 residential properties there's certainly plenty to choose from. The average property price in this area is in the region of $876,000 with prices in this suburb ranging from $37,000 to $4,697,000. The aproximate distance to the coast is 110 Km.

Consistent high demand relative to supply is a key feature in Coombs driving regular price increases. Recent rapid price increases however may constrain future growth by limiting demand. High average incomes in Coombs 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. A mix of professions and above average income earners in Coombs 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 Coombs 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 Coombs 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 Coombs a better buying opportunity than it may have been in the past.
