Properties in Gordon, Killara and Pymble are appealing to a wide range of buyers, according to Savills’ latest report.
It noted across the suburbs, the median house price in January 2017 was $2.3 million, over twice the average for Greater Sydney.
It advised there is a premium for being closer to the city and in close proximity to a train station.
“Killara is the most expensive with an average house price of over $2.5 million compared to West Pymble at $1.7 million," the report advised.
“House prices have experienced significant growth over the past decade, increasing by 103%, in line with the Sydney average.
“Across the suburbs, West Pymble and Pymble experienced the strongest growth with house prices increasing 113%, reducing the value gap with suburbs closer to the city.
“Strong growth has continued over the past 12 months, driven by a lack of supply across the area, with house prices across the five suburbs increasing by 13%, outperforming the Sydney average.
“Units in the area had a median value of $970,000 in January 2017, less of a premium than houses when compared to Sydney at just one third more expensive.
“Similarly to house prices, apartment values vary in price along the train line. Pymble is roughly 10% cheaper than those in Killara and Gordon.
“Growth in unit prices has been slightly more subdued than houses with an increase of 83% over the past decade.
“However, much like houses, price rises over the past year have outperformed the Sydney average with an increase of 11%,” the report stated.
Private renters are more frequent in medium density housing areas according to Savills head of research Sophie Chick.
“The proportion of private renters varies significantly across the area,” Chick says.
“Unsurprisingly, there is a higher concentration in the areas with more medium density housing.
“Gordon has the highest proportion with 22% of the residents private renting, followed by Killara with 18%.
“Conversely, just 9% of residents in West Pymble are private renters.
“Across the suburbs, the median weekly rental value was $1,200 for a house and $700 for a unit in January 2017, equating to average yields of 2.8% and 3.7% respectively,” she commented.
International buyers are an important source of demand Savills says.
“Across the five suburbs, families with children make up over half the residents, accounting for 57% compared to an average of 45% across Sydney.
“International buyers are an important source of demand for the housing market across Sydney as both owner occupiers and investors.
“Of the five suburbs, East Killara has the highest proportion of residents born overseas, accounting for 45% of the population with a particular dominance of residents from China and Hong Kong.
“Accessibility to employment locations is high priority for many house hunters.
“Residents across the area work in a number of locations, reflecting the suburbs' connectivity to major employment hubs.
“The largest employment industry for people living in the five suburbs is the professional, scientific and technology sector accounting for 18% of employees compared to an average of 10% across Sydney.
“This industry is the fastest growing in Sydney meaning the area is well placed to draw on the newly created wealth in these industries.”
Qualities that attract residents to these areas are expected to grow Savills comments.
“It is important to assess the outlook for the area in the context of the Sydney market,” the report advised.
“Factors such as low interest rates, population growth and infrastructure investment point to a positive economic outlook for NSW over the next five years.
“These factors are expected to continue to support demand for housing, particularly in Sydney.
“However, it is likely the rate of growth will slow, given the affordability pressures and the regulatory measures implemented to slow the amount of bank lending to investors.
“Across all five suburbs, the good primary and secondary schools, connectivity, high quality housing stock and open space available are expected to continue to appeal to families looking for their long-term home regardless of market conditions.
“The development of apartments and townhouses along the Pacific Highway provides a wider range of housing options, which is likely to attract a broader demographic of buyers including first home buyers, downsizers and investors.”

Gordon, Killara and Pymble appeal to wide range of buyers: Savills

Gordon, the ACT suburb, has been pinpointed in the latest Residex Predictions Report as the nation's top growth prospect.
The list identifies 109 suburbs and towns nationally that are most likely to deliver better than average growth over the next five and eight years.
The report ranks the top 109 suburbs where predicted capital growth is forecast to be between an average of 4.0 percent and 11.1 percent per annum over the next five years, and between an average of 5.1 percent and 8.4 percent per annum over the next eight years.
Based on Residex’s predictive model, the best performing suburb has been identified as Gordon in the ACT, 28 kilometres south of Canberra, where house values are predicted to grow by an average of 8.4 percent per year for the next eight years.
The median house value in Gordon is currently $576,662 and the median value growth was a strong 5.6 percent in the year to October 2016.
For that median price a four bedroom home, such as the one at <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-act-gordon-124363650" target="_blank">53 Wootton Crescent</a> (above), is available for $575,000.
Similarly a three bedroom home at <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-act-gordon-123890790" target="_blank">6 Price Place</a> (below) has been listed for sale for $589,000.

Examples of houses that have been sold at Gordon includes a three bedroom home at <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/sold/property-house-act-gordon-124211006" target="_blank">11 Flegg Crescent</a> (below) that was sold for $565,000.

Similarly a three bedroom home at <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/sold/property-house-act-gordon-123469498" target="_blank">10 Lawlor Place</a> (below) was sold for $405,000.
<img src="https://www.urban.com.au/images/2017/01/17/Screen%20Shot%202017-01-17%20at%2011.46.59%20AM.png" alt="">
The report is a valuable starting point for property investors researching where to buy next, Kylie Davis, Residex head of marketing said.
“The suburbs listed in the report are the ones that we would expect to perform well in future years based purely upon the statistical patterns that the Residex algorithm has identified in their historical growth rates,” said Tim Lawless, CoreLogic’s Asia Pacific Research Director.
“Residex’s predictive model doesn’t allow for new developments, changing demographic patterns, improved infrastructure or any other such factors and these can have a substantial impact on the capital gain prospects across a suburb or town.”
The December report is the first Predictions Report compiled by Residex since the business was purchased by CoreLogic in 2016, and uses the combined data resources of the two businesses.
The data is drawn from median values using the CoreLogic automated valuation model, rather than median sales prices. This is an important distinction as it takes into account the value of all properties within the suburb, not just those that have transacted across the period. This makes it a more reliable and stable indicator of values across the region.
The suburb of Pemulwuy in NSW held the number two spot with house values expected to provide an average of 8.34% growth per year over the next eight years. Batemans Bay on the NSW South Coast came in third position with an average of 8.29% growth anticipated per year over the next eight years. Houses in Middle Swan ranked fourth while houses in Brighton, Tasmania ranked fifth.
In the national report, 107 suburbs had top predictions for houses while there were two suburbs for units. Across the country, 60 of the top 109 suburbs were in regional Australia and 49 were in city areas.
Broken down by state, 16 were in the ACT, 39 suburbs were within NSW, 15 were in Queensland, there was 1 from SA, 13 from Tasmania, 6 from Victoria and 19 from WA. Separate reports are also available for Victoria, NSW and Queensland.
Mr Lawless said the report was not definitive and other suburbs could also perform strongly. Investors should conduct their own additional research before deciding to commit to a purchase.
“As with any forward looking analytic, the reports are predictions, not a guarantee of future growth, and taking into consideration your own personal circumstances is vital,” Mr Lawless said.
