We understand
We understand
We understand that
Our

waterways and mountainous landscape makes it a soughtafter location. The lack of housing supply due to low density and not a lot of land being released has driven prices and rental returns.
What’s the biggest changes across the market over the past 12 months?
The biggest changes have been the demand steadily increasing in the entry-level market which has pushed the median prices.
How can people get a foot on the property ladder?
Utilising a little known “secret” of using extra payments to superannuation to save for a deposit is a great tool for first home buyers. Direct message me for more information.
