Tweed Heads is all about the
By Jo Kennett
PROPERTY PRICES in the Tweed Heads area have, like everywhere in the Tweed, risen significantly since the pandemic madness, but if it’s convenience and fun you are after and a love of the water, it might be just the place for you.
Tweed Heads has some beautiful properties for sale, many of them right on the water with views lovely enough to make you never want to leave home.
Last month Tweed Heads had 41 properties for rent and 68 for sale but now there are 49.
Median house prices over the last year were $1,197,500, down 8.9 per cent over the year, to $803,000 for units, up 12.2 per cent. Tweed Heads houses rent for a median of $795 per week and units for $630, which has made them a great investment.
Real estate in Tweed Heads West, which was one of the cheapest places in the shire for years, has been going off in the past couple of years, with two-bedroom units the key target for both desperate first-home owners and investors.
That includes not-so-cashed-up rentvesters who just want to know that if they lose their rental, they have somewhere to hang their beaten up old hat with some of the world’s best beaches a few minutes’ drive away.
According to realestate.com data, last month Tweed Heads West had 32 properties for rent and 41 for sale, but now there are only 29, so stock is still tight.
Median house prices over the year were $950,500 — up 13.2 per cent over the year — to $525,000 for units — up 9.1 per cent — so whoever got in before 2022 when unit prices averaged $315,000, would be feeling pretty happy with themselves.
Tweed Heads West houses rent out for $800 per week and units rent for $522. I have friends who grew up in Tweed Heads South and absolutely rate it as a great area to live.
It’s more expensive than Tweed Heads

I don’t think you can go wrong buying in the Tweed Heads area. It’s got absolutely everything you could want for a great coastal lifestyle and with the Olympics on the radar and the population still growing, it’s hard to see prices going down anytime soon.

Being a Land Lease community there is a fortnightly fee, which if you qualify through Centrelink there is a subsidy towards it fortnightly, making it great value. This system is one of the best that I know of when it comes to downsizing into a village lifestyle.
