Moculta Real Estate Market Outlook

Thinking about buying in Moculta? Now could not be a better time, with just 193 residential dwellings it's a highly sought after location. The average property price in this area is in the region of $535,000 with prices in this suburb ranging from $129,000 to $926,000. The aproximate distance to the coast is 58 Km.

Good balance between supply and demand ensures a range of affordable options within budget limits. Recent increases in listings may provide buying opportunities. In this area of average incomes, there is a mix of housing size and quality. While this may present buying opportunities, growth may be constrained. As buyers begin to examine Moculta due to other areas being out of the price range and the trend to working from home, "gentrification" may incease price growth. The slightly lower than average earnings from occupations in Moculta 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 Moculta necessitates a mix of lifestyle options for housing, shops, open areas, and facilties. Where this is available, demand is high and growth ensured. Lower than average industry presence in Moculta 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 Moculta a better buying opportunity than it may have been in the past.
