SOUTH COAST HOUSING PRICES ON THE RISE

The Illawarra Mercury , 8/3/2018, reports that the South Coast housing market has defied Sydney’s falling trend in housing values.

It quotes new data from Domain’s June Quarter 2018 House Price Report which indicates that house and unit prices on the South Coast are continuing to rise, despite predictions the market would drop.

The reports states that in the past year, median house prices in Kiama have jumped almost 15 per cent from $830,000 to $953,000.

Prices have continued to rise in the Shoalhaven also, with a median price increase of 8.6 per cent in the past year to June.

Prices in the Eurobodalla Shire are also increasing, with an 11.6 per cent price jump in the past 12 months.

The strength of the property market in the Illawarra underlines its strong potential for future growth.
