THE SOUTH COAST REAL ESTATE MARKET

In talking to people who visit Batemans Bay we find there is a general belief that the real estate market is depressed and oversupplied. This is the case for subdivisional land but not so for all other types of property. There is always holiday property on the market at inflated prices with unmotivated sellers.

 

FACTS

Looking at Houses, Units and Rural properties Prices of properties sold have remained steady over 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007 and early 2008 Most prices are in fact higher than for 2002 and 2003, the peak of the boom was Oct 2003.

The number of properties being sold has gradually increased over the same period (except for the second half of 2008) but not at the numbers seen in 2002 and 2003 when the market went mad in 2002/03

Ray White BATEMANS BAY is still increasing its market share and most of our sales are at new highest prices for their location. We do have some bargains for the bargain hunters!!
