Emerald Beach Real Estate Market Outlook

Thinking about buying in Emerald Beach? Now could not be a better time, with 1275 residential properties there's certainly plenty to choose from. The average property price in this area is in the region of $1,079,000 with prices in this suburb ranging from $144,000 to $83,897,000. Emerald Beach is located very near to the coast so expect stunning views of the ocean and access to beaches. Demand is likely to be very strong in this location which will support higher prices

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 Emerald Beach 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 Emerald Beach 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. Low population density implies low demand and limits housing choices and price increases. Could be a good entry point for first home buyers needing to somehow get into the market. Lower than average industry presence in Emerald Beach 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 Emerald Beach a better buying opportunity than it may have been in the past.
