Regional NSW is showing nation-leading strength, with a record number of towns and suburbs recording growth in their sales activity in our new quarterly survey.
A total of 116 locations have rising markets, easily the highest number in the six years that Hotspotting has been conducting its quarterly surveys.

Markets across Regional NSW continue to perform at nation-leading levels on price growth.
In the past 12 months, 90% of regional locations have recorded growth in their median house prices. Most have lifted at least 5% and many have had double-digit growth.

The results show evidence of the Exodus to Affordable Lifestyle trend which is sweeping the nation, with growth markets right across the state but most noticeably in places close to Sydney.

And we highlight the best of these regional centres in the new edition of Top 5 NSW Regional Hotspots.

The report provides a range of options for investors to buy affordably in areas which offer good rental yields, backed by low vacancies, and which have continued to deliver price growth through the pandemic period.
