Greystanes market and investor summary
In Greystanes, NSW 2145, the median house sells for around $1.5M. House prices have moved +8.0% over the past year. At 2.5% vacancy, it is a broadly balanced rental market.
If you are weighing units rather than houses, a pipeline of new approvals is worth watching as future supply that can hold back apartment price and rent growth.
Living in Greystanes: people, income and schools
Greystanes is home to around 23,511 people, a number that has held fairly steady over five years. At a median age of 39, it reads as broadly working-age, and 77% of homes are owner-occupied. Owner-occupiers dominate, so stock turns over slowly and listings can be thin when you are trying to buy.
The typical household income runs to around $100,000 a year (about $1,930 a week). On socio-economic measures it ranks comfortably above the national middle (8 out of 10 on the ABS advantage index). At current prices a median house runs to a steep 15.2 times local household income, so affordability is a genuine constraint on local buyers. Locally, around 32% of household income goes to mortgage repayments, a level usually flagged as mortgage stress.
Families have 55 schools within roughly 5km to choose from, testing close to the national school average on ICSEA. Greystanes sits about 25 km from the CBD.
