12 Paltridge Street, Mount Gambier SA 5290

Mount Gambier demand is driven by relative affordability to Adelaide, steady rental yields around 4.5% and buyers targeting low-maintenance units that suit budget-conscious, travel-oriented lifestyles. Growth is underpinned by the forestry, agriculture and logistics base, but constrained supply has lifted rents and even sparked concern about housing stress, so new approvals offer investors a chance to meet that gap. Over the past six months house values have risen by roughly 10–14% while units have jumped over 20%, so prices continue to trend higher even as buyers now pause a little longer before committing.
