Gosford 2-bedroom VS 3-bedroom Units | July 1st, 2025

https://www.mortgagechoice.com.au/michael.daniels/our-services/mortgage-broker-in-gosford-michael-daniels/

We have compiled a table that compares 13 property data results for 2-bedroom and 3-bedroom units in Gosford.

From an investor's perspective, Gosford's 2-bedroom units offer several advantages over 3-bedroom units:

The median price of $550,000 for two-bedroom units is notably lower than the $637,000 median price for three-bedroom units, offering a more accessible entry point.

Two-bedroom units have shown an impressive 7.10% price growth over the past 12 months, contrasting with a -0.50% decline for three-bedroom units, indicating stronger capital appreciation potential.

With 125 units sold versus 54, demand appears to be higher for 2-bedroom units, supported by 1,046 buyers interested last month, compared to 881 for 3-bedroom units.

Rental performance further favours 2-bedroom units, with a gross rental yield of 5.10% versus 5.00% for 3-bedroom units.

The median rental income of $520 per week, with a 4.00% growth rate over 12 months, slightly outpaces the $600 and 2.60% growth for 3-bedroom units, suggesting stable cash flow.

Moreover, 270 leases were signed for 2-bedroom units compared to 78 for 3-bedroom units, reflecting higher rental demand.

The shorter median days on market (35 for sale, 13 for lease) versus 57 and 11 for 3-bedroom units indicates quicker turnover, reducing holding costs.

Despite higher availability (52 vs. 20 for sale), the market dynamics suggest 2-bedroom units are a more attractive investment option in Gosford currently.

Central Coast median house price rises for 6th consecutive month

  UPDATE | 10/06/2025 | Central Coast Median House price rises for 6th consecutive month The median house price on the Central Coast for May 2025 is $1,044,750. Exactly 10 years ago, the median house price was $499,250. Will the median house price double again in 10 years?  I would have answered no to that question in 2015, but a combination of general inflation, rising wages and accommodating lending policies (especially during COVID-19) drove the median through the roof. In fact, between mid-2020 and mid-2022, our median rose by 61% from $650,000 to $1,050,000.  Fortunately, this median dropped by $100,000 over the following 12 months; however, we are now only $6,000 away from the COVID-19-induced peak. This has been a devastating change for our first home buyers, and predictions of further variable interest rate cuts will likely accelerate house price growth.  If you know a potential first-home buyer who would like a maximum purchase price estimate (no obligation)...
