Strong regional lifestyle appeal and affordability versus Adelaide, paired with the Aurora masterplanned release and planned school, is drawing families, lifestyle upsizers and investors looking for roomy living within reach of the city. Tight stock, very low vacancy and fast-selling new lots have kept demand elevated, so prices have kept trending up over the past six months with median houses nudging into the mid-$700,000s. Keep an eye on the surge of building approvals and large Aurora stages – if supply accelerates before broader population growth catches up, upward pressure could ease, but short inventory and steady population gains still preserve upside.
