Shoal Bay 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.

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. A mix of professions and above average income earners in Shoal Bay 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 Shoal Bay to an extent. However, where buyers are willing to compromise on housing and lifestyle choice, there are affordable options.

The housing market here has seen a steady interest due to its serene environment and proximity to larger urban centers like Darwin, which is just about a 20-minute drive away.
