Sanctuary Point Real Estate Market Outlook

Thinking about buying in Sanctuary Point? Now could not be a better time, with 5062 residential properties there's certainly plenty to choose from. The average property price in this area is in the region of $673,000 with prices in this suburb ranging from $24,000 to $9,416,000. Sanctuary Point 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.

In Sanctuary Point there has been a history of lower than average prices and demand, offering opportunities for investors or first home owners, especially in the context of the growth in working from home. Low average incomes in Sanctuary Point 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. Low average earnings from people in Sanctuary Point leads to lower quality housing which also negatively impacts the provision of facilities. As a consequence this area is often seen as less desirable, with lower quality of housing and slower price growth. 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 Sanctuary Point 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 Sanctuary Point a better buying opportunity than it may have been in the past.
