Mount Jukes Real Estate Market Outlook

Thinking about buying in Mount Jukes? Now could not be a better time, with just 241 residential dwellings it's a highly sought after location. The average property price in this area is in the region of $740,000 with prices in this suburb ranging from $550,000 to $1,120,000. Mount Jukes 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. 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 Mount Jukes due to other areas being out of the price range and the trend to working from home, "gentrification" may incease price growth. A mix of professions and above average income earners in Mount Jukes provides good demand. The lower than average housing turnover of these people also means fewer regular listings leading to periodic large price increases. High density population in Mount Jukes requires consistent turnover in housing ensuring constant demand. Housing styles may be a mix of low, medium, and high density, providing choice for well-financed buyers and value growth over time. Lower than average industry presence in Mount Jukes 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 Mount Jukes a better buying opportunity than it may have been in the past.
