8/3-5 Irving Street, Parramatta NSW 2150

Parramatta’s demand is fuelled by its official second-CBD status, major transport and precinct builds (Metro West, Light Rail, Westmead health, retail towers) and the steady intake of workers, students, health professionals and downsizers chasing CBD-type connectivity at a lower entry point. Long-term opportunity remains in the massive employment and housing pipeline (Melrose Park, Parramatta North, BTR towers) but the near-term risk is that the surge of planned supply could drag on rental growth and cap upside if absorption slows. Prices over the last six months have been broadly flat – house medians near $1.5 million ticked up marginally while units sit around $620k with little movement – so buyers are investing for ongoing urbanisation rather than sprint gains.
