Regional Property Markets Continue to Outperform in Selected Areas
When analysing the property market, it's important to look beyond the national and capital city headlines.
This highlights why investors should always analyse sub-markets within broader markets - opportunities often exist even when the overall market appears to be slowing.
Here are a few standout performers over the past 15 months:
Wagga Wagga, NSW
* Tatton - Median house price increased from $852,500 (Q1 2025) to $1,125,000 (Q2 2026)
Bendigo, VIC
* Flora Hill - Median house price increased from $520,500 to $645,000
Geelong, VIC
* Norlane - Median house price increased from $445,000 to $590,000
Townsville, QLD
* Cranbrook - Median house price increased from $560,000 to $640,000
The key takeaway? Strong investment opportunities don't always come from the markets making the headlines - they're often found by drilling down into suburb-level data.
