Tempe Real Estate Market Outlook

Thinking about buying in Tempe? Now could not be a better time, with 1746 residential properties there's certainly plenty to choose from. The average property price in this area is in the region of $1,785,000 with prices in this suburb ranging from $459,000 to $8,491,000. Tempe is located fairly close to the coast at just 1Km so as well as great views of the ocean and access to beaches, demand and valuations are likely to be a bit higher here.

Consistent high demand relative to supply is a key feature in Tempe driving regular price increases. Recent rapid price increases however may constrain future growth by limiting demand. Incomes in Tempe are above average indicating a preference for good quality housing and lifestyle. That ensures consistent price growth. A mix of professions and above average income earners in Tempe 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 Tempe to an extent. However, where buyers are willing to compromise on housing and lifestyle choice, there are affordable options. Higher than average industry presence in the wider area offering local employment yet with not a large negative impact on local amenity, provides good demand and price growth.
