Paradise’s demand is anchored by professional families chasing large lots near the foothills, tight supply under 1% and above-average incomes keeping buyer interest firm through the past six months. Capital-growth buyers are prioritising houses as rents hover in the mid-$600s and days on market stay in the high teens, so prices are still nudging higher despite stretched affordability. Risks include yield compression and interest-rate sensitivity, while the suburb’s high socio-economic profile and limited unit competition keep longer-term growth upside intact.
