“It is a great place to work and live, so demand for accommodation continues to be strong as Sydney Olympic Park evolves into a major suburb,” says David Chittenden, General Manager of Residential Colliers International.
“In most parts of the world you have to travel far to enjoy such recreational entertainment and sporting facilities, but at One Australia Avenue they are on your doorstep,” says Chittenden.
Ecove estimates that strata levies will be low – due to the sport and recreational facilities offered in Sydney Olympic Park - estimating them to be $600 to $750 for a one-bedroom, $800 to $1,000 for a two-bedroom, and $1,200 to $1,500 for a three of four-bedroom apartment, per quarter..
