Nestled in the heart of Greater Sydney, Norwest presents an unparalleled investment potential that remains largely untapped.
With housing demand projected to exceed supply, the region boasts a unique opportunity for growth and prosperity. Outperforming Greater Sydney in both price and rental growth, Norwest has demonstrated its resilience and attractiveness to investors. One of the key factors fueling its potential is the substantial $9 billion infrastructure investment, encompassing pivotal projects in transportation, education, retail, and civic facilities, which promises to further enhance its allure. Bolstering this outlook is Mulpha’s commitment to the long-term development of Norwest. In light of these compelling aspects, Norwest stands as an unrealized gem, waiting to be explored and harnessed for its promising future.
Strong population growth
Norwest’s forecast population growth of 1.8% p.a. is set to almost double the NSW average of 1.0% p.a. This equates to an additional 14,900 residents by 2037.
Demand exceeds supply in Norwest
The Norwest area will require an additional 5,440 dwellings over the next 15 years, to accommodate the forecast population growth. Based on the historic 10 year average, it is forecasted to fall short of meeting the required supply.
Housing shortfall deepens
Given the significant decline in NSW dwelling approvals since 2017, the housing shortfall in Norwest is likely to be further intensified.
Record low rental vacancy rates
Remote work is fuelling high demand for housing away from the CBD.
Norwest price growth opportunity
The median new apartment* sales price in Norwest is up to 16% less than comparable amenity-rich metro locations such as Chatswood and Macquarie Park.
Sydney house prices skyrocket – the tide is turning to apartments
Between 2019 and 2022 the Sydney housing market saw significant price growth averaging 12.7% p.a which has resulted in house prices now being 62% higher than your average apartment.
Due to this growing unaffordability of houses, since December 2022, apartment price growth has seen higher price growth as a percentage relative to houses.
Norwest apartment prices and rental growth buck the trend
Between 2019 and 2022, the Norwest Area experienced strong apartment sales price and rental growth, surpassing the median sales price and rental growth in Greater Sydney.
Norwest job market thriving
Norwest is already home to 31,700 jobs and is expected to grow by more than 8,000 jobs by 2037.
